Score multiplier vs Buying Experience

[Repair-Kit 80]

Is it worth getting the score multiplier at it's current price of 12500 crystals?

If you could spend a similar amount on experience you'd get 12500 pts, so the question is, how many points do you need to earn before it gives you an advantage over just buying experience directly, which is currently 1000 crystals for 1000pts?

Let's say you earned 41670 pts - the score multiplier would add 30% giving you a total of 54171pts. That is 12501 pts more than normal.

I'm not sure what a month is in tanki terms but if it's 30 days then you'd currently have to be earning over 1389pts a day to make this multiplier work for you compared to just buying experience.

 

How much game time is that for you? I'd be interested in fellow players feedback. Let me know if my maths are wrong please.

It all depends on how you make use of the score multiplier my friend.

 

If you buy it and then just sit there and do nothing, of course the 1000EXP will be worth a lot more.

 

But if you go on a rampage that month, and exterminate 5,000 tanks at 10EXP each...50,000EXP plus 30% more is 65,000EXP...which is 15,000 moreEXP.

Easily worth far more for your crystals than what you would have received from the 1000EXP purchase.

 

But the latter requires quite a bit of effort, the 1000EXP was designed to give it to you with little to no effort at all...it is your choice!

Obviously.

 

Both Multiplier and buying Experience are ways to increase your Exp Pts. I was more interested in the viability.

I worked out that having a Score Multiplier and if you destroy less than 4,167 tanks in one month, then, you would have been better off buying experience instead.

 

you'd currently have to be earning over 1389pts a day to make this multiplier work for you compared to just buying experience. How much game time is that for you?

That would take me 1 - 2 hours of play. How about you?

So another way of looking at this is, given that it takes 1 - 2 hours to get 1,389pts, you'd have to play up to 60hrs hours a month just to break even.

How often is that going to happen? I've been pretty dedicated over the last 3 months and there is no way I'd waste crystals on buying a multiplier at this current price. The only time I'd consider buying experience at this price is if there was a sale on for something I wanted at the next rank up, but only if it was financially viable, so to speak.

I could better buy a 10.000 crystals xp. Haha

I would say buying the score multiplier would be the wisest choice, as then you could most likely earn over the amount of which you could buy of exp.

Here's a bit more info based on my game-play.

I've just played 5 hrs straight and amassed a whopping 6066pts in a fast and furious Silence CTF (80flags) battle.An extremely good haul by my standards.

Extrapolating then would mean I would have to play 34 hours and 20 minutes before my purchase of the Score Multiplier pays for itself.

After that time has elapsed, based on the 6066pts I just earned, I could expect to my Score Multiplier to give me an extra 364pts for every hour played.

 

The numbers here are based on one game and I would guess, as this was a good game, that on average, I would have to play around 40 hours before the Score Multiplier pays for itself. Meaning, play on average 1 hr 20m every day to break even. More than that if I want the Multiplier to go to work.

 

So given then that you would have to play so long, and given that the Multiplier costs so much and only lasts one month, there doesn't seem to be any incentive for anyone to buy it. Tanki might want to review this one.

Hope this post helps someone.

Why would you need XP?

You will find yourself between high rankers while your tank is not ready for it yet.

What he said is true.. ^ i'll prefer buying multiplier because its just better idk if it affects the scores in battle .. because I've never used it

Anything that makes you rank up "unnaturally" is bad for you. Unless you can buy enough crystals to get the weapons and paints that become available with new ranks, it's pointless. Everytime you rank up, you loose the oportunity to fight with players that have the same grade of weapons you do, you also loose the chance to train your skills, and you'll get fed up with the game sooner. Just "Work for it" is my advice.

Score Multiplayer is stupid. Should be removed like XP buying.
