Learning goals
- Understand Voidrig identity.
- Understand Bonewidow identity.
- Understand ranged vs melee role differences.
- Learn why first Necramech choice matters.
- Avoid assuming both mechs solve the same problem.
Explanation
Voidrig is commonly understood as the more ranged and offensive Necramech, with heavy armor, explosive weaponry, and the Mausolon as default armament. Bonewidow is a heavily armored melee-oriented Necramech with a tower shield and exalted heavy sword identity. Voidrig often fits broad progression and ranged firepower needs, while Bonewidow appeals to players who want melee frontline gameplay and shield-based pressure.
What should I do?
If choosing your first serious Necramech, check your progression needs, decide whether the goal needs ranged firepower or melee frontline play, consider Voidrig for broad-use practicality, consider Bonewidow for melee Necramech gameplay, and avoid deeply building both too early.
Common mistakes
Avoid these Necramech mistakes while learning deployment, builds, weapons, and investment.
- Assuming Bonewidow and Voidrig are skins of each other.
- Ignoring Bonewidow because it is less commonly recommended.
- Building Bonewidow first without understanding melee-focused gameplay.
- Building Voidrig but never learning its abilities.
- Comparing unmodded mechs unfairly.
- Overinvesting in both too early.
Key Takeaways
- Voidrig and Bonewidow are different roles, not cosmetic variants.
