Introduction

The Arthur is a Titan, with 1 alpha and 2 beta hardpoints.

Ability

The Arthur has the Phalanx Mode ability, which moves its shields into the front, but doing so slows down the Arthur by 20%. It also has the ability Blast Wave, which in a sense is a force push. It allows Arthur to push robots in close vicinity (100m) away from the Titan. This serves three purposes: Firstly, pushing away smaller robots, which are otherwise difficult to target. Secondly, doing damage through shields or solid walls. Thirdly, it allows for evading the damage of Hellburners or helldiving Mercury robots by using the ability before they explode or make contact with the ground (triggering the AoE).  Note:  Blast Wave only pushes away small robots, robots that are flying, or robots currently in the air, such as jumping robots.  No shields can block, Blast Wave also can take out all Aegis-class shields, while still doing damage to the robot itself. 

Strategy

The Arthur’s high health, resistance and extremely high physical shield durability make it a perfect tank. It possesses low speed compared to other robots and titans. Its weapons are mounted on top, which allows for excellent ability to shoot over cover.

Due to its low speed and weapon mounting positions, it is best used to hold and control strategic points of the map, such as beacons or covered positions with open fields, which the enemy has to cross. However, it can also very well be used to spawn on beacons which are about to be liberated by the enemy. In any case, it is best to stick to high cover, over which you can shoot, but not the enemy.

If the large physical shield is closed and you are facing the enemy robots, you cannot be suppressed or locked down, as the shots have to hit the robot directly. The only exception is the Invader, which delivers the suppression effect via AoE. This is why when facing lockdown weapons or robots with suppression abilities, it is recommended to keep the shield closed. Furthermore, it should be closed when being shot by energy weapons as physical shields are most effective against this damage type. When fighting robots with explosives, keep in mind that your shield will only partially block explosives, and is useless against flamethrowers (Ao Jun, Blaze, Ember, Igniter)

The Blast Wave ability should be used as often as possible to maximize damage output. Through its AoE damage, multiple enemy robots can be it if they are in the blast radius. It is especially useful when dealing with Pantheon robots running their absorber shields, with stealthed robots, or with fast bots that are otherwise difficult to target with the main weapons. A further use is to push enemy robots off of beacons in order to recapture them (in case you spawn your Titan on a beacon which is about to be liberated) or pushing robots off cliffs.  One less known use of the Blast Wave ability is to push away Mercury robots which try to damage the Arthur with their Helldive ability. When timed right at a good opportunity, you can not only prevent the damage but also push them off the map or into deadly pits. As a side note which becomes more significant later on in the game, Blast Wave can bypass damage resistance, so use it on Leeches, Falcons and Phantoms if they come in close.

The largest danger for the Arthur comes from sustained AoE damage through, for instance, Ember and its family as it goes straight through the physical shield.

A further danger comes from being flanked, especially with shotgun weapons (energy shotguns included) or Avengers, as the physical shield can only be brought to the front of the Titan. Due to the Titan's large size, many of the shotgun pellets will hit, even if the enemy robot is far away.

• Level is on a scale of 1-50. It is based on the level of each upgrade, not the singular level of Arthur itself.
• Defense Points are based on this table.
• Cost is singular across each upgrade (e.g. The cost to upgrade Hull to Level 10 is the same as the cost to upgrade Engine to Level 10).

Trivia

• Arthur is named after King Arthur.
• Arthur's Blast Ability's knockback power can stack with other Arthurs if used at the same time, while being close to each other (within touching distance). Thus allow multiple Arthurs to literally blast robots away faster and farther than what's normally possible.
• Like the Ao Ming, it is possible for the Arthur to "carry" a single robot in-between itself and its shields while walking, as long as it has its shields closed in front of it. However, there is a high chance that the "riding" robot can obstruct the line of fire for the Arthur's weapons.
• The Youtuber known as "Adrian Chong" has nicknamed Arthurs blast wave ability to "Death Fart"
• The "extra durability" under shield health affects Titan hit points, not shield health. Even though given its placement that implies shield health.
• A Gareth,Galahad and Lancelot hangar with Arthur makes a "camelot deck"
• Also, these robots have shields, apart from being similar to each other's faction.
