Why? Because it gives more chance to collect XP by healing? On the other hand Freeze can be excellent both in D and attack by slowing the enemy down.

Hello Guys, I read a lot of advices of this thread, and wondered why people ask other what to buy. Especially without defining their playing preferences in a lot of cases. Sometimes I feel my preferences are completely against the best practice higher ranks suggest. E.g. I really like using Shaft on light hulls like Hornet, and a few cases I even went for flags with it. All in all, I do not want to ask advice what to go for, but I am really curious about the playing style and world in the battles of Generals. The answers of the following questions would really help me how to develop my garage in the future. 1) What is the most popular short range turret? 2) Are there a lot developing Firebird to M3? Or definitely the Freeze the ruler? 3) I understand Twins is one of the most popular middle range turrets. What about the Thunder and Rico? 4) What about the Shaft? Do you see as many there as I can in the WOx rank range? 5) How frequently do you see Wasp M3? Or only those who could bought the Kit use that? 6) Several CTF I play in are about the drugging, but not all of them. Are there battles where no drugging is so excessive? 7) What are the most popular maps there? I missed to check the unavailable battles on my screen (sorry), but I am curious about your feeling. 8) Do you high ranks play battles just for fun, although you might not earn as many as you would on other maps? I do it time to time on Madness, what I simply adore. 9) What about a Hornet/Hunter vs. Mammoth/Titan with a long range Turret like Shaft? Cannot a Hornet compensate the HP advantage of the big brothers with agility? Still I have a question on my development plan. I really like Isida and Shaft and fast hulls like Wasp and Hornet. Freeze is very annoying so I am thinking about using that too. With Shaft a stronger hull might be fine, but not optimal e.g. in Madness for sure though. So: Do you agree, that it is better to develop the Isida first, becuase it is better to collect XP and position (this way crystal) in CTF/TDM, and invest into Freeze later? TIA
