 Heals 7% max health of caster on use and will cleanse non-stat debuffs (in other words, no longer works on intimidate, smokescreen, omega override, etc...). Non-stat debuffs include necrosis, any form of poison, frostbite/frost shards, stuns (if used in 2v2 on a stunned ally), concussive shot, pyro fly's swarm, and essentially any kind of debuffing effect that doesn't affect strength, dex, tech, or support.
Reason? Because pretty much all classes have skills which help counter smoke and malf so much better, and assault bot was completely obsolete because a 9 energy cost technician was completely blocking off full malfunctions and even adding a bit of extra tech (even on builds that weren't dex caster), and lasting 4 turns instead of 3.

Once a must-have on any non-focus build and useful on some focus builds even, the assault bot has been useless for a really long time.

Gamma Bot: Base damage decreased by 15. Cooldown increased by 1, but its energy and physical attacks are on independent cooldowns.

Gamma bot was similar to infernal android, except with more base damage but couldn't do that single, hard-hitting burst that IA could. It was really fun how versatile it was in Gamma due to independent cooldowns on bot attacks and specials, so I thought of bringing it back.

I can somewhat agree with this robot but no heal regain from it. Cleanse should be 70% <~~~reason its got alot to cleanse and it can be countered with skill debuff and primary debuff then shield then countered with azeral robot/aux
Assault bot cleanse 70% for skill/primary debuffs <<~~~reason its got its 5 debuffs to worry with an shield taken out by a azeral bot or aux then the non cleanse stuff countering futher.
Similar but with those 2 working like that this is a nicely counter to debuff and counters

 Nobody uses azrael's robot/aux because either they don't have it since it's pretty hard to get, or there are just better bots out there. The aux core also costs a hefty amount of energy and does reduced damage so it isn't really worth it, hence the "counters" to buffs are extremely rare and I wouldn't even consider them to be existent in the game since the last time I fought someone who used them was probably over 200 fights ago.

Silly me, I forgot to make the title "Couple Bot Changes" instead of "Couple Bot"

oh well :P

I don't know about at the low level ranges, but about 80-90% of L.40 2vs2 are currently using azrael aux (and gun). It is used quite often at endgame PvP. It's a bit less in 1vs1 since its not needed as much, but it is still used a lot.

Azrael's aux is equipped by a lot of players in battle, but in my last couple of hundred fights I have very rarely seen the core used. (well I almost always play 1v1 since 2v2 is broken imo) but I'm pretty sure I haven't lost a fight when my opponent wastesd 145 EP to do very little damage and remove 65% for only 2 turns.

Even if you don't intend to use that core, the normal aux active core is useless (concussive) is having a core there and not having one is pretty much the same. Plus Azrael's aux looks cool and if you got it with the pack it comes free upgraded.

Don't you think the botanical borg (the one you change into) needs a buff since it's skill has almost no use in 1v1?

 ^Agreed. Just because lots of people have it doesn't mean they use it. It's just not efficient IMO.

I still use my Azreal borg and still use it. However most people I speak with told me they don't use it because it doesn't break Hybrid armor, mineral armor, or Plasma armor. Most people who brought the bot for credits told me they got it just for the hope of breaking those barriers only to have their hopes dashed.

Also If I remember correctly the staff doesn't want the one robot to counter another and the fact that you want to suggest the assault bot be made to counter not only poison but necrosis would make it a hard counter for not only the botantical hazards but the Abysss bot. Not only this but the staff removed the Assault bot's ability to counter necrosis because of this principal (It at one point did counter necrosis)

As for the other cores no as well because how it is fair that the assault bot that is one of the few bots that can be rerused special wise a counter to cores that are a one shot deal? It already a counter to omega override and curse (the delta weapons) which IMO doesn't seem fair due to it being a one shot deal now you want to make it a counter to other one shot deal cores?

As for the gamma bot I have no opinion on this bot.
