I have not been on in the past year. My question still stands, even more so now with all these changes. Any help is appreciated.

Hi. I have a question about kits and turrets and hulls. Should I get a kit because it looks like I get those items early but it costs so much? I have enough, almost 11K for a couple of the early kits but not enough for the better kits. I do not like the early kits as I feel it does not suit my needs. I like my configuration of wasp and railgun and have been doing well with it. Would it be better for me to upgrade what I already have or save for a certain kit? I saw the Mosquito Kit in the kit thread, but it would take a very long time until I could get it. I know that players with better equipment will soon beat me up as I go up the ranks and I don't want to fall far behind. Until then, I would probably still have to keep playing smart and use cover to avoid getting one-shotted. Maybe I should see how far I can go with what I already have? Any advice is welcome.
