What's your intended use for this Fury? There's a big difference in how a triple Trident and a triple Trebuchet are used after all.

With the addition of the Power Plant map, that's now 2 maps that a Fury does not perform well in (the other being Dead City).

Whatever the use, I'd not recommend the triple Trebuchet, as it does not deal enough damage and there will be too many Ecu-type shield bots to deal with after 3 new bots come out.

That leaves you only the triple trident. I'd have to not recommend this bot also, as the 3 new bots coming are fast and while a triple trident will bypass their shield, many of these bots will be able cross the map to get within 300m of your Fury (I could not stop all of them with triple trident on the test server).

Most pilots get a triple trident to stop Rhinos and the triple trident is unmatched in dealing 60K portions of splash damage at >500M. However, with the coming of the Power Plant and all these new fast bots, I think that you might want to consider the other more nimble bots that also deal 60K splash damage.

These other bots that offer more survivability through more maneuverability or shielding are the RDB Griffin/Rhino, the triple Tulumbas Fujin, and the upcoming heavy prototype carrying a Trident and dual Tulumbas.

I chose the RDB Griffin as my mid-range splash damage bot and it was must first bot to make it to top tier (and it us used in every top tier battle). I tried the triple trident Fury and it just doesn't have the speed to get into secondary firing positions or escape a stalking Rhino or Boa.

When the new heavy prototype comes out, I'll be replacing my RDB Griffin with it that bot and arming it with a Trident and dual Tulumbas (weapons I already have leveled for top tier).

So if you can do with an RDB Griffin for now, I'd build one of them and wait for the heavy Proto. IMO, I think the Fury will be a hard choice to justify once the new heavy bot comes out.
