30 A-Points – Division 8
20 A-Points – Division 9
10 A-Points – Division 10

Organize your in-game chassis squad properly

In this game, you get a total of 5 slots for your mechs. You should utilize these spots strategically. Try to keep one chassis of each role. Since there are 4 roles, you should have 1 slot left. It is recommended that you fill the final slot with a mech role you are strongest at.

Every weapon has its benefits and drawbacks, you can choose whichever works best for you.

Spend some time trying out each weapon to see fits your playstyle. Also, remember to consider the chassis you are using as well. Some weapons work best with certain mechs only.

Mech Arena Robot Showdown Tips and Tricks

As said previously Mech Arena Robot Showdown encourages tactical gameplay rather than aggressive gameplay. It is important that you focus on playing safe and smart in order to survive the longest. Up next in this Mech Arena Robot Showdown Beginners Guide, are a few tips and tricks to help you while in battle.

1. Play according to your Chassis role

Each Chassis has it’s own role – Tank, Support, Attacker and Scout. When you choose your chassis, play the role you are expected to. Here are the playstyles for each chassis.

Tank – Play defensive, absorb bullets, and act as a shield for your allies. As the Tank, you are expected to be the frontline of your team.

Support – Your role is to help your allies by providing support. Stay back behind your team and use your abilities to help your teammates.

Attacker – As the attacker, you are the most offensive, use your strong attacking abilities to push towards the enemy.

Scout – Your role as the scout is a little more passive, you should use your abilities to locate enemies and provide Intel for your teammates. Avoid battles and instead, watch from a distance.

2. Use both your weapons effectively

There are 3 firing buttons available to use. One will fire your left weapon, one will fire your right, and one will fire both at the same time. Avoid using up too much ammo as reload time is usually quite long.

Instead, try and use one weapon where possible. Whilst you are out of a gunfight, make sure that all weapons are loaded and ready.

3. Singular weapon fire is Effective around corners

A very effective way of firing is by standing behind a wall and firing with the one weapon peeking out, over the corner. This will mean that the enemy will see less of you, and so you will not receive much damage.

4. Close down enemies from behind

The most effective way to kill an opponent is from behind, where they are least expecting it. If possible, try and sneak up on your enemy instead of firing from a distance.

Once you are in close proximity, ensure that both weapons are loaded fully, then unleash fire. Being close will mean that all your bullets should hit the enemy, by the time they turn around, they will have a lost a huge chunk of health.

5. Shoot in short bursts when firing at a distance

Recoil kicks in a little while after you start shooting, the longer you hold the shoot button down, the stronger the recoil gets. This will have a huge effect on your ammo, as you’ll end up missing more than hitting bullets.

If you shoot in short bursts, accuracy will be much better and recoil will not be as strong. This is a very effective way of eliminating enemies at a distance.

6. Avoid being the lonewolf in a battle

Mech Arena Robot Showdown is all about teamwork, all the chassis roles complement each other and so a team is most effective when all the players are together. Going lonewolf is not recommended as you will end up very vulnerable if you are on your own. Stick with your team and coordinate attacks together to achieve the most success.

On the other hand, if you see someone from the opposing team going lone wolf, this will be a great opportunity for an easy kill. Get your team together and swarm the solo player and it is very unlikely they’ll survive.
