COWBOY

ANAKSOR: NEW ROBOT BUILD

The Anaksor is a raider from the flying mechs family. But its lightweight design and impressive built-in machine guns aren't its only strengths. If attacked during takeoff, Anaksor activates full invisibility and hides from the enemy. And at its peak, its attacks poses a threat even to Titans, especially with Alex Tav at the controls. The Basileus and Machaira guns, in addition to their firepower, also apply the CORROSION, reducing the target's Defence Points and repaired Durability.

ANAKSOR

Master of the skies and stealth

Sirocco Field: Upon activation flies up, activates built-in autocannons, increases speed by 130% and applies several charges of the INVISIBILITY FIELD defensive effect to the robot. When the robot takes damage, one charge is consumed and triggers INVISIBILITY, hiding the robot from enemies for 5 seconds. The protection remains active while the ability is active or until all charges are depleted. Any enemy in 75m or closer reveals invisible Anaksor.

Revenant returns to the battlefield stronger than ever. Its hull and physical shields have become noticeably more durable, and its ability is now more convenient and restores some durability. The weapons have also been upgraded—they fire more frequently and feature increased ammo capacity. Completing the ULTIMATE upgrade is the new pilot, Valerie Morgan, who enhances both damage output and survivability of the robot.
