I mean, you had 5 of them, with a few Barriers. It's a support module, but you had them configured like they were primary weapons. While it helps to fuse it for duration, if you wait until the missiles are close it will negate guided/homing rockets. Putting this on a build that also has a Chameleon will make you near-unhittable by them. Most importantly, though, is that the Argus completely vaporizes Kings, Kapkans and PORCUPINES. It's a great module, it just needs to be used correctly.
@@nunull6427 using it tonight, it was very close to instantaneous explosion. If they fire Porcs within the range of the Argus, they're gonna have a bad time.
5:01 Ahh nice, a chance for him to use it!...any sec now Mr.G!, any sec now!...are you even gonna use it before its to late?...."get hits after 7 sec of warning peeping sounds*. Mr: G: Now is the time!...ooh wait a sec :( And this kids, is why you dont talk on phone while driving, eyes on the road!
Its for hurricane rockets...pyre...flute...and mines...but they dont stay up long enough....so the timing is key.....and too hard to do!....hope gaijin fixes it!...sweet vid..thanks mrG!
I have an Argus and a cloak on a light hover build, I get hit by any kind of mines/missiles maybe once every 10 times I'm targeted or drive over them. It is actually a really cool module! Also super useful for high level pvp and Firestarter raids with all those porcs flying around
Mr. G the time you actually deployed the argus against hurricane missiles was a team mate shooting hurricane missiles so of course it wouldn't destroy the missiles.
This is a very useful life saver if you time it right. I only use one Argus unit on a build and it can take out twelve missiles coming at me at once when timed right. It also takes out every mine around me at times. It really bothers me that these guys that have no clue how to build a decent tank and no clue how to use items efficiently get free accounts full of every item in the game times 10 for free to make totally wrong reviews.
Or just panick sell them all to me so I can resell them later when the ravens go away Yes please the Argus is terrible sell them to me super cheap go buy the arothron that things amazing
@@baggovtenner4453 no i mean the uptime dura... it's like 1 seconds and then it explodes... it should be 20 seconds uptime until it dies... or get destroyed by enemies..
I see this video is a longer one so you probably had some time, so wouldn't it have been easier to just ask a couple friends to get those weapons that argus is useful against and test it out in free for all against your friends ?
I love the Argus, only item I really wanted from this Raven event because I hate mines. :c Really useful against clearing kapkans or king mines so teammates don't run over them. I also use it to intercept enemy missiles that are coming for me or a fellow teammate. I run it with: Blight, Incinerator x2, Chameleon 2.0, Apollo Generator, Verifier, and Colossus engine. Works really well as a support. My only grievances with it are its dimensions/parameters and the duration in which it stays out. I also noticed it only shoots one target at a time. They should either increase its duration or give it the ability to shoot multiple targets at a time.
I was messing around with this just last night testing it, I verify it is a highly specific and tactical defense system, but the nerf it provides to mines, king/kaplan/porcs and all missiles it will destroy while deployed, so worth having one I say for it's defensive ability, may need a buff perhaps in how much it can defend against, but yeah it's good when you can use it for it's intended stuff
I use the Argus quite a bit. The 8-10K meta on Xbox is very missile and mine heavy. The Argus is great in those matches, and not just for yourself. I find myself shooting down missiles that aren't even targeting me. Then again, I don't mind playing support roles.
I believe the reason You can't find any thing to use the Argus on. is because it's brand new, and the Hype about it has not died down yet. Which means. No body wants to use Mines or Missiles. that can be shot down. instead people are choosing to use weapons and things that are not effected. and their for they can use all they want to full effect. The Very fact. that people are expecting the Argus to be every one as people try it out. is the very reason why it's worthless. After a few weeks/Mounths. Then Give the Argus another try. at that point. no one will be carring if you may have an Argus or not. So all players will be using Missiles and Mines again.
Wasting our time looking for mines and missiles, then finally gets locked on and forgets to use em. Dude, why don't you just quit this? You sound depressing and look even worst. CBA to edit and too lazy to write some sort of script. Take a break. Cya in 2021.
"Just Kapkans and mines that no one uses" hoping everyone playing 7-10k takes that statement as gospel, so my Kings aren't sent straight from MVP to DNF.
The problem with support items is no one wants to play support because it’s easier to gain scrap and rep by just zerging enemies and stealing kills since rewards are based on damage dealt and so little towards goals instead of team performance
Thought Argus was gonna be defense against droners and missilers but with that duration and lack of damage, your hope is enemy team is only composed of kapcaners and miners?
a single argus can shut down every other missile volley, You couldn't see it here because g wasn't able to actually test it but it's perfectly capably of severely hampering missile guided missile builds (as well as mines or anything that relies on kapkans to hold you in place)
Argus doo work u have to be good to time it .i used it in clan wars they r effective for dogs to kill kapcans or porcs. Skilled player can do rely good with em
1 energy fire and forget vs 2/3 that requires your attention. If you wanted an mg on your build anyway sure, but 1 argus and 1 chameleon (or anything else you need that energy for) are way more bang for your buck otherwise
Typical. PvP is usually full of hurricanes, you take argus and see no missiles. It does work though, I've seen it in clan wars. Still quite limited in use though. A few people have said it should work on drones, but that would just be too strong. A 1 energy module that can kill drones is op. Drones have already reached a point where they're almost useless already
This build is no interest. You should try a normal véhicule with the module added on. Maybe it can be useful in CW for counter kapkan. Or it's a good answer to flutes.
MR G. I gotta be honest with you, this was a terrible video, in the sense that your test was terrible! It's not meant to go into battle to hunt down rockets and mines, then you give up after two matches! It's main purpose is to free you from kapkans, it's there when you need it, even if it's not every round. When it does save you, it is a game changer. It will also protect you from a volley of hurricanes, incoming porcs and King mines in the vicinity. It's few issues I have found are that in raids it's very picky which King mines it will destroy, a bug for sure. It also won't destroy the buried porcs. My last complaint is mounting this thing takes a lot of space and work.
i definitely wouldn't spend an energy point on this... if there was an entire team in cw with missiles and mines and what have you, sure, but for missions, there aren't enough of them around..
That is not a test, that is just a no-sense build played by a noob XD, sorry dude but that is it. The key of the Argus is the timing, JUST ONE Argus in 3 second can counter every missiles, porcs, fuzes, kapkans, kings around you, 1 energy cost. Over 7-8k and in clan wars is very useful. It need learn to use like others advanced weapons.
@@josephlawrence6873 - while that might be the case for PC.... as he stated, nobody on PC is using Kings. Console players on the otherhand, are a whole different story. PC has the aiming capacity to take out ground items. Console players have three choices: 1- spark 2- avoid them altogether 3- take the hit
If it only fires on guided missiles and mines and not turrets or drones its useless... a waste of energy, even if its only 1 point. I rarely see mines in game and missiles i usually just steer away from them or hide behind something...
Argus is garbage i built 1 its hard to use on any build big ugly circular cylinder that can't be covered there easy to shoot off and for almost 300 power score not even worth it!And when the hell is this damn wedge fix coming croosout!?

And this kids, is why you dont talk on phone while driving, eyes on the road!
It's just going to be like a car jack, for a very specific purpose and it only takes 1 energy so I think it's ok for what it is.
"The Argus tested" ? Really?
the argus is a beast when facing porcs
Its for hurricane rockets...pyre...flute...and mines...but they dont stay up long enough....so the timing is key.....and too hard to do!....hope gaijin fixes it!...sweet vid..thanks mrG!
Not really hard you just have to listen to the missiles beep rapidly and deploy it or listen for the sound of missiles get close.
I have an Argus and a cloak on a light hover build, I get hit by any kind of mines/missiles maybe once every 10 times I'm targeted or drive over them. It is actually a really cool module! Also super useful for high level pvp and Firestarter raids with all those porcs flying around
For something that's active for so little time, it should really target drones
Right! Drones and turrets and it needs to be out ALOT longer
@@coreygrieb5073 for 1 power? i think the time could be okey but could target drones to thats true
@@minidreschi2 my thoughts exactly. For 1 energy you get a thing that clears drones, mines, kapkans and porcs for the same duration as a verifier.
every time i watch these Crossout videos i find myself trying to pivot the camera angles around to no avail, lol
Mr. G the time you actually deployed the argus against hurricane missiles was a team mate shooting hurricane missiles so of course it wouldn't destroy the missiles.
Those missiles at 9:50 were your teammates....

Don't let Mr gs bad test deter you from this thing it's fantastic for dog builds and if you have any desire to play clan wars you should keep it.
Or just panick sell them all to me so I can resell them later when the ravens go away
Yes please the Argus is terrible sell them to me super cheap go buy the arothron that things amazing
Lol
If you have your Deployable boxes in a straight line with the arrows pointing in the same direction they will only drop one per click.
*Jesus what's with the Argus dura? it should stay at least 20 seconds up until it detects mines/projectiles or it gets destroyed...*
@@baggovtenner4453 no i mean the uptime dura... it's like 1 seconds and then it explodes... it should be 20 seconds uptime until it dies... or get destroyed by enemies..
Build a Higher power score vehicle and you should encounter more stuff the Argus can counter.
Hope that works.

It is nice to know that I'm not the only one who couldn't get the Argus to do anything. I had high hopes that it would mess with drones. Oh, well !
These missles were from your own teammate G - thats why your module didnt destroy them - OMG

You need to put one on a high powerscorce build where so many people have porcs and kapkans.
How many coins does one of them cost?
