If anyone is attempting to research bronze more, they should do so on a total level basis. Thus, 1: If people can find out what percentage of the total level weapons and bots are, and 2: if different robots or weapons have a higher percentage of the total level. I don't know how someone could go about this, but a place to start would be using one level below max weapon, then switching the robot out for one that was one level higher. If this keeps you in bronze, then there is a 1:1 ratio between weapons and bots. (eg. level 1 cossack, level 7 silver weapon) However, I highly doubt this, so you would have to repeat this process lowering the weapon level until the bot didn't upgrade your tier.

Once you found the point where your robot upgraded your tier, you could look at the data and extrapolate the level ratio. (eg, if max bronze was level 3 bot, level 6 weapon, then there would be a 2:1 ratio between bots and weapons)

To have a complete comprehension of the bot levels and comparative bot levels (between different bots), you would have to use one weapon and repeat the process above until you had the ratios figured for all the bots.

To have a complete comprehension of the weapon levels and comparative weapon levels, you would have to repeat the process with a schutze, a destrier, and a cossack with each light, medium, and heavy weapon.

After all of these are figured out, in order to determin one's tier, all that you would have to do is know the average level of your bot for a tier.

In order to gather complete information quickly: you would have to have a bot of each level, and a weapon of each level.

On this form, information for each tier could be expressed in relation to total level, with the percentage of that level that each bot level or weapon level is.

I hope this is somewhat legible, and isn't too confusing. A player with more assets and time than I should do this.

(as an aside, I am assuming the matchmaking tier system opperates by evaluating the total level of robots and weapons, and then lumps them into the different tiers based on the that level, and I am also assuming that weapon level is the average weapon level)
