Introduction

The Ao Qin is a medium robot with 4 light hardpoints.

Ability

The Ao Qin's ability is named Dragon Strike.

When Dragon Strike is activated, the robot rises into the air, with increased speed (59 km/h) for 10 seconds, and can damage enemies with its built-in electric arc laser cannon. However, it is possible to manually shorten the duration and land prematurely. Doing so will automatically stop the flight and laser cannon.

While in flight, the robot hovers, and cannot increase or decrease altitude. It can, however, reach a higher altitude if the ability is activated in a location higher than ground level. Also, the robot can stay stationary while in midair.

The laser functions much like the Spark or the Scourge, with a maximum range of 600 meters. Being the energy damage type it can also bypass energy shields. In order for the laser cannon to be fired, the pilot must have the cross-hairs focused (aimed) on the target.

Strategy

The Ao Qin is part of the PRC (People’s Republic of China) faction, along with the Ao Guang and Ao Jun.

This robot's strategy may be difficult to stick with, as this robot has mediocre health and firepower yet decent speed. However, using its Dragon Strike ability does give the pilot an opportunity to quickly take down an enemy robot more powerful than itself or a group of smaller enemy bots by amplifying the Ao Qin’s mobility, firepower and durability.

The Ao Qin should use its ability in order to support a push or defense of a vital beacon/area, in an ambush against enemy robots (preferably with teammates) or when trying to escape/survive a confrontation that one is unlikely to win. When its ability is cooling down, the Ao Qin’s characteristics mean that it is better suited as a support knife fighter, using its speed to dodge enemy projectiles and give its teammates fire support.

Threat Measure

Ao Qin is based on a medium bot, with 4 light hardpoints and quite decent health pool, making Qin a formidable opponent in closed maps for ambush. The robot also have decent speed, showing that the red bot is capable of dodging rockets, which also proves that Ao Qin can outmatch heavy bots due to decent firepower and agility. This confirms a highly moderate threat, for its ability to fly.

Skill Level

This little robot can be considered to be the most difficult to use robot out of the three PRC robots. With no built-in Damage Resistance or Stealth, you are quite vulnerable to enemy fire while in flight. Use your skill, be patient and use lots of cover when approching the enemy while piloting the Ao Qin.

Possible Setups

These setups are recommended for the Ao Qin:

Note: Each slot type is filled with only one particular weapon. For example, if a robot has 3 light all three of those slots are filled with Pinatas, as mixing weapons of the same slot type is not advisable.
