Hello everyone, my dear Tankers. As you see, I’m new here. ;)
I love this amazing game, even though I only play it during weekend for personal reasons. I am WO3 and I have just discovered this awesome forum, I had previously been looking for information because I don’t want to make the wrong choice in the upcoming sales.
I am a player who likes playing in small-medium maps such as Rio, Highlands, Courage, Madness...I absolutely dislike big maps where Shafts rule. I am a player who likes action, and being able to use my skills constantly without having to travel for a long distance to find enemies. I don’t mind letting the flag to my mates, I just want to make my enemies fear me, by destroying them constantly. I do not like defense, but when needed, I go there immediately. I like attacking, but also covering mates and surprising other tanks and being an efficient killer.
Because of this, I don’t like, for example, Shaft (I find it quite boring) or Vulcan (needs time to start dealing damage, I need instant damage). I have always sticked with my Isida and Hornet and I have used this combo for CTF. It works well, I normally finish top 1 or near, so that means lots of EXP and cry. But that only works for CTF, and I am currently looking for something that could allow me to play DM or TDM. I have used Rico, which is nice, but i don’t know if other turrets like Twins or Thunder might be better. I am no one to judge, but I think that I’m pretty skilled with the turning turret controls, or at least that’s what I feel. I normally sneak up anywhere and can be rolling between enemies with my Isida alone and dodging bullets while causing chaos...And most of my rivals don’t even try turning their turret...which is an advantage for me! I also like being backup for my team, but I like relying on myself normally, which doesn’t mean ignoring my teammates ;)
Well, I ll get to the point. The think is, I would like to try seriously DM and TDM, but it’s not a good idea with Isida, and Rico with Hornet also doesn’t rock, because of its low health.
I currently have plenty of supplies (I don’t use drugs), 30 000 cry (+5000 from rank-up and daily bonus till Tanki B-Day) and my garage is:
M1 Hornet
M1 Isida
M1 Ricochet
(In love paint à I don’t plan buying more paints till the +100k ones. If there’s a paint especially recommendable, please tell me!!!)
Now the question is:
1.-My combo for CTF will be OK for higher ranks as Hornet-Isida? Or better Hornet-Ricochet? Which one should I focus on?
2.-I have noticed that Twins were extremely OverPowered years ago. I could also use Twins with my Hornet, as I have seen some skilled Hornet-Twins going around other tanks extremely dangerous guys! As Mammoth M1 is very cheap, I was wondering if getting Twins M1 + Mammoth M1 would be good for DM and TDM. Because I don’t know if nowadays Twins have ‘future’ in higher ranks.I mean, are they as OP as they were before? I have read they aren't as good as they were :unsure:
3.-And I was also wondering if Thunder is worth it or not. It would be useful in DM and TDM and CTF as well. But I would need Viking, because it’s the hull which fits best. And I don’t know if it still rocks in higher ranks.
All in all, with my money, I could afford Twins M1 and Thunder M1. Of course, Mammoth M1 also! 38.600 + 34.000= 72.500 72.500/2= 36.000 more or less
(considering that I buy it, I would then have to get Viking M1 to match my Thunder)
But seeing that having lots of low turrets is worse than having a good combo, because you can not use all your turrets at once. So maybe, being a just arrived WO4 I should go on saving for M2s? That would mean Hornet M2 and either Isida or Rico. Those are my only M1 currently.
If I buy those weapons, I would have to choose one of those combos and go with it till M3 (Mammoth-Twins / Viking-Thunder / Hornet-Isida) but we must have in account that, for example Twins work both with Mammoth and Hornet. And Thunder, I would guess that work for nearly any of these 3 hulls!
Finally, I remind you my questions:
-Will my Hornet-¿Isida? or ¿Rico? still work well in higher ranks especially CTF?
-Twins and Mammoth are still OP? Even in higher ranks?
-What about Thunder? It would need Viking? Still rocks?
-Should I buy or not those 2 Turrets: Thunder M1(if buy Thunder, then Viking is it a must?) and Twins M1 (+Mammoth M1 super cheap).
-Which combo should I stick with considering my gamestyle? Best if it works awesome in high ranks, so very OP!
-And, considering my rank, when should I start collecting cry for M2 combos? Or I can still collect M1 turrets and hulls?
(I have ignored Shaft and Vulcan because not my gamestyle. Firebird and Freeze because the maps I play they can be easily killed. Rail and Smokey, mostly because I have actually never used them...so I don’t know how do they work! But when I find Rail or Smoky with my Rico, I instantly b*ng them, same with my Isida...)
Sorry for the long post guys. I can only say that YOU are amazing, I appreciate all the work you have done in here, Congratulations Tankers!!! I hope you will save my as* , and help me decide what to buy on this sale, but most important, how to focus my account from now on!
