Ok, I have figured out what I want to buy now. :P May be a bit risky, but whatever. I'm just curious on how M2 Dictator performs in higher ranks before Generalissimo? I'm assuming it performs bad . . .

So I was curious about something. I just want to see what YOU would do if you had my Garage. Turrets: M1 Twins, M0 Shaft, M1 Ricochet, M2 Railgun, M2 Firebird, M2 Freeze, M1 Thunder, M3 Isida, No Hammer Hulls : M1 Viking, M2 Wasp, M2 Mammoth, everything else M0. Paints: Digital Crystals: 279,000 What would YOU alone do with this Garage? What would you buy on this Christmas sale, or would you leave it alone and rank up first? Pretend you were at my rank. Nowhere near ranking up. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ @Omarzidan: Uhm. How much can you afford to buy? Considering you're almost at Generalissimo rank, M3 Dictator is looking pretty good in my honest opinion. So if you want to get a headstart, then maybe Dictator M2? Same goes for Mammoth. But out of all of those, for turrets, Smoky sounds decent. For Hulls, just out of those two, I'd go with Dictator given your rank. With a high-impact gun, you can flip/knock people off easier according to the V-LOG. Isn't it scary? Earlier today my Wasp flipped from getting shot at by a Smoky when he was shooting downwards. Probably at my turret. He was shooting from the Silence Blue team's cliff. It FLIPPED my Wasp M2.

How does it fair against M3 Hulls? :P

If I don't plan to MU it? I only MU the M3 items. Is M2 Ricochet still worth it then? Or does the MU really give you a decent discount?

M3 Isida/ M3 Hornet *shudder* But hey, how's M2 Ricochet? Is the difference between M1 and M2 big?

If only Self-destruct penalty was gone, Thunder/Wasp would be my main combination. Especially since I have access to Emerald Paint now.

Which is why I believe that Emerald paint is a MUST at this sale. Everybody seems to want to get Thunder M3. And on drugs, it can 1-shot my poor Wasp. And it'll be like a Rail shot against Hornet probably. I think even Devs said it was OP. However, the paints tone it down. So if you don't have Thunder paint, in reality you're going up against an Over-powered gun. :D Wow, this makes me want to get Thunder now, not Ricochet. D:

Can the stations be healed? Quick! Everybody get Titan/Isida! Sounds like an interesting gameplay.

Just met a dude in Battle (Generalissimo) who told me that M3 Thunder was "noob" against M3 hulls.

M4 Viking/ M4 Ricochet/ Prodigi

Ricochet M2/ Hornet M3/ Emerald -> With about 30,000 Crystals left. OR M2 Viking + Ricochet M2 +Emerald -> With 110,000 crystals left I chose to drop M3 Thunder. Is that a good idea? Note that I will NOT MU any M2 items. I will only MU M3 items. With the Viking path, I can have 110,000 crystals left to immediately upgrade Viking when I rank, though it will take a while to rank. I figured that I absolutely need Emerald paint because so many people will buy Thunder.

I hate it when I'm using Isida and healing the Flag-holder when they mistake me for telling them to give me their flag. I don't want them to give me the flag, I want them to capture it themselves since they earned it. ./facepalm

Does Hornet drift MORE as you upgrade it, from M0 -> M1 -> M2 -> M3, Or does it drift less and have more control of itself? Nevermind, looked at the stats and comparing the drifting stats in comparison to Wasp, it should start drifting less I think. So Hornet has 110 Turning ability at M3. Meanwhile, M2 Wasp has 121. I guess 10 isn't a big deal. Now I'm leaning towards M3 Hornet/ M2 Ricochet and M3 Hornet/ M3 Thunder. . . With Ricochet, I can afford Emerald. With Thunder, I can't unfortunately. Or should I still go with Viking/Ricochet, and thus have 110,000 crystals left. . . I can use that to get M3 Viking at a 50% sale as soon as I rank up - though that'll take a while probably. .. .And Thunder/Viking will still leave me with nothing. GAH! Can't make up my mind. :P

Final choices. I did some calculations on spending, and realized I'm short on crystals for Thunder M3/ Hornet M3/ Emerald combination. :lol: Final choices are: 1. Ricochet M2/ Hornet M3/ Emerald -> With about 30,000 Crystals left. I am extremely interested in Ricochet M2, though does it last until my Rank and up? I can drop the Emerald and save some crystals, leaving me with about 100,000 crystals left. 2. Thunder M3/ Hornet M3 -> Leaves me with 3650 crystals. Basically nothing. I'll have to stick with my Digital paint. Heheh. 3. M2 Viking + Ricochet M2 (182,000 left) OR Thunder M3 (78,650 crystals left) With Emerald paint -> Viking/Ricochet will have about 110,000 crystals left. With Emerald Paint -> Viking/Thunder will have nothing left. I tested out M0 Hornet and overall it was . . .. Eh. . . I have to adjust to the drifting a lot. . . It's not like Wasp with Wasp's accurate movements and high speed. I know I can't make up my mind that well. :P

How does Ricochet M2 work at my rank and above? How about on a Hornet M3?

Isn't more options good? Just because the majority didn't use 5 minute battles or 10 minute battles, does it really have to be taken away? Same with the Private Battles. Leave it, and it'll benefit everybody. Taking it away won't do any good but only upset the people who used it.

For Thunder-users: Is Thunder able to shoot other tanks' turrets, kind of like Railgun, and trigger some massive impact on the tank?

How is Hornet since the auto-aim update?

Do you put any missed shots or paint into consideration? That's pretty important. And I agree with Emrakul. The MU's that can be applied can't be noticed, and it does pack a big difference if they MU it a lot. If I remember correctly, a fully MU'd Hornet can have about 200 hp or something. And they can MU their turrets as well. And the transition between M2 to M3 gives you a very large stat boost as well anyways. If you're fighting against Wasp M3's, then perhaps you should fight with lower ranks.

@CrimsonSaviour: I'm assuming you want protection from Railgun? I used Forester until I got my hands on the mighty Digital paint. It's a pretty decent paint in my opinion.

@Shad0w: You think Hornet M3 is going to be a big difference from the Wasp? I check the stats, and it's only about 30 hp higher. Not to mention it's slower. A few days ago I played with Mammoth/Railgun, and I kept flipping an enemy M3 Hornet so many times very easily with shots to his turret. So it made me very doubtful about its stability. If I do get Hornet M3 though, I do have M2 Railgun to pair with it. I plan on starting to use Railgun M2 more again.

@vanshajwore: Isida M3: 166,900 Thunder M3: 186,200 I don't think 50,000 crystals is enough. . . . But since you play DM/CTF, Thunder would cater to both. However, you did give noticeable praise to Isida M3 saying it seems deadly with Hornet/Viking. It actually is deadly though. :P If you think you can adapt to Thunder and use it well, then go for it. But true, there are many paints out there that protect from it. But in the end it's your choice if you want to take that risk or not. I guess you can just switch to another gun in the midst of the battle if Thunder-Paints become too populated. I myself plan to get Emerald paint. :D If you don't think you'll get bored of Isida, and like using it, and can use it effectively, then go for it. The most important thing is to not get a boring gun which you will forget about, making it a waste of crystals. Have fun with it. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Should I get Hornet M3, Dictator M2, or Viking M2? The turret I want to get is Thunder M3. I already have Mammoth M2, and Wasp M2. And how well does Hornet go with Thunder? I can get Emerald paint, or I can get Irbis paint. So if I go with Hornet/Thunder, I can get Emerald paint. Thoughts?

Does anyone have Hammer M2, and how is the performance?

With the Christmas sales heading our way, it's time for me to make some huge decisions. Currently I have M2 Wasp, M3 Isida, M2 Mammoth, M2 Freeze, M2 Firebird, M2 Smoky, M2 Railgun Step 1 - Choosing my Turret: Should I choose Shaft M3, Thunder M3, or the new Hammer M2? Overall I'm looking to buy something that doesn't use ammunition like Isida/Firebird/Freeze. So Hammer is still acceptable even though it's considered a close-ranged item. I can use it in medium ranges too. I have great interest in both Shaft and Thunder. Both have abilities that I can use very well. Step 2 - Choosing my Hull: Using the information from step one, should I buy Hornet M3, Viking M2, or Dictator M2? My only real hulls are Mammoth M2 and Wasp M2. The rest are M0. Step 3 - Choosing my Paint: The most powerful paints that are available to me currently are Emerald and Irbis. I'm leaning toward Emerald, but can someone advise me what paint I should go for after using information used from Steps 1 and 2? My main paint so far is Digital. It doesn't have to be Irbis/Emerald. Thanks!
