Transformers Universe MOBA Game Autobot Meltdown and Decepticon Duststrom Character Details

As promised the Transformers Universe MOBA game site has revealed details on their new warriors. They have posted new details on the characters Autobot Meltdown and Decepticon Duststrom, who is a Fembot, characters we learned about earlier this week. Get the scoop on the character's summary with overview of their weapons and the many functions. See the full profiles below with images of the characters and their weapons.

The noble Meltdown and the devastating Duststorm are crashing down to Earth and bringing the Cybertronian war with them, as Jagex reveals the first two bots exclusive to the upcoming MOTA, Transformers Universe.

These unique and powerful bots are making their explosive debuts as the countdown to the latest instalment in the eons-old war between the Autobots and Decepticons continues. As the summer launch of Transformers Universe fast approaches, prepare for further exciting reveals of these distinctive bots in the near future.

DUSTSTORM - Ghost-Faced Guerrilla


Corrupted from the inside out, Duststorm simmers with a quiet, consuming rage.

With an arsenal optimized to keep even the most ironclad predator at bay, this Decepticon will fry servos with her electrifying pistols or pop hoods from distance with deadeye precision. The tainted glint in her augmented ocular prosthesis is the only thing her victims ever see of this ghost-faced guerrilla.

Demolisher
Ghost-Faced Guerrilla

Few bots' loadouts pack as powerful a punch as Duststorm's. Optimized for devastating damage dealing at long or close range, the downside is that her defenses are weak. This is why she can also knock enemies down or stun them, granting her time enough to escape.

Demolisher
Post-apocalyptic sand stalker

To maintain her secrecy, Duststorm selected a vehicle mode that would kick the dirt high and keep her concealed. With onboard, long-range plasma rockets, few will be able identify their attacker.

WEAPONS STATS

01. Droma Blaster Rifle
[ Electro-blast launcher ]

A long-range weapon which deals electrical damage to spark and shield. It exhausts its power in a single activation, then requires a short cooldown.

03. STYGIAN SNIPER RIFLE
[ SHIELD VAPORIZER ]

An extremely-long-range weapon which deals plasma damage to shield. It exhausts its power in a single activation, then requires a short cooldown.

The Mesh Smasher S-tech inflicts heavy damage on the target's shields. If their shields fail, the attack ensures that the energy dispersal burns their nearby allies with plasma.

8/8 Range
6/8 Shield Damage
2/8 Spark Damage

Tip: The optimal time for Duststorm to activate the Mesh Smasher is when the target's energy shield is low, and they are surrounded by other enemies.

EQUIPMENT

01. Projectile Accelerator
Increases the acceleration of projectiles fired from all of Duststorm's weapons, increasing their damage-dealing at close range.

SUBSYSTEM - Lifeforce Capture

When Duststorm takes an enemy offline, their life energies are rerouted into her systems to administer repairs.


MELTDOWN - Health Insurance


Meltdown is an Autobot who hates war but will never leave a fellow warrior behind.

He specializes in blasting his beam weapons - welding injured allies back together and deconstructing Decepticons (if absolutely necessary). He's also handy with a rocket launcher, although it's rumored he shuts his optics at the moment of impact. Emo-chanical issues aside, Meltdown is your bot for all reasons.

"If an Autobot is in trouble, Meltdown puts it all on the line." - Ironhide

Guardian
The Autobot emergancy service

Meltdown has a multipurpose-utility-vehicle form, equipped to deal with any and all maintenance needs. He is not the fastest bot, but a long-range beam cannon can convert from his roof, allowing him to administer repairs en route.

WEAPON STATS

01. Protex Rocket Launcher
[ DAMAGE-REPAIR EXCHANGER ]

A long-range ammo weapon which deals plasma damage to shield. It auto-reloads when ammo is depleted.

2/8 Spark Damage
Tip: Use Hot Heal when Meltdown's spark is weak.

Damage Type: Plasma [Shield]

EQUIPMENT

While active, allies hit by the repairing beam gun have their systems boosted and can deal greater damage; enemies hit by the damaging beam gun suffer system interference and have their damage-dealing reduced.
