NEW ROBOT I THE GAME: JAGUAR

Hello everyone! I would love to share a robot concept that I created. I really hope Pixonic sees this and considers adding this robot into the game! Let me know what you think of it. 

[Robot Concept] Jaguar - The Ultimate Hit-and-Run Assassin

Faction/Style: High-speed predator designed for tactical ambush gameplay. 

Robot Tier & Acquisition Costs: 

  • Classification: Tier 4 (Gold) 
  • Acquisition: 10,000 Components (Can be purchased directly for 9,000 Gold) 
  • Upgrade Path: Standard Tier 4 resource scaling (~200M Silver to reach MK2 Level 12 + 1 Upgrade Token for MK3 upgrade).

 

Base Stats: 

  • Durability (HP): 220,000 
  • Aegis Shield: 130,000 (Non-regenerable, one-time protection) 
  • Speed: 41 km/h 
  • Hardpoints: 3x Light, 1x Heavy

 

Unique Ability: Prowl Rush

When activated, the Jaguar retracts its heavy weapon and channels all power into its engines and light weapon systems. 

  • Speed Boost: +35% movement speed. 
  • Maximum Duration: 15 seconds. 
  • Cooldown: 9 seconds.

 

Damage Stacking Mechanic:
While in "Prowl Rush", every bit of damage dealt by the 3 light weapons is tracked. The total damage is divided by 8 (halved three times) and accumulated as a bonus. 

The Finisher:
When the 15-second ability ends, the heavy weapon deploys again. The accumulated bonus damage is added directly to the very next shot fired from the heavy slot. 

Tactical Limitations: 

  • Expiration Timer: If the heavy weapon is not fired within 4 seconds after the ability ends, the accumulated bonus damage expires and is completely lost. 
  • No damage carry-over to the next activation. The counter resets to zero every time.

 

Recommended Playstyle / Equipment:

This robot thrives with high-burst CQC (Close Quarters Combat) weapons. 

  • Light Slots: Scatter, Cudgel, or Rime to quickly charge the ability counter up close under the safety of the Aegis shield. 
  • Heavy Slot: Devastator, Hammer, or Glacier to deliver a devastating "One-Shot" bite right as the Prowl Rush ends.
