Just a post, no replies:

 

The rebalanced Thunder: it is now my second (or first?) "Railgun" which delivers less damage,

but has a much better reload than the Rail ánd it has (still some) Splash.

 

Viking M2 - Thunder M2 used to be my favourite melee tank. It was a superb combo in Polygon DM.

The heavy damaging shots combined with the also heavy Splash were devastating!

Ok, with Thunder you had some self-damage when an attacker came too close, but this was easily fixed by a good Thunderpaint like Cedar.

With the heavy and stable Viking I could always return fire, even when under attack of a Twins or Ricochet.

 

This is still possible with the Viking, but it 's quite a bit harder, now that the impacts of these plasmas have a lot

more effect on the now lightest medium hull: the rebalanced Viking.

Besides of that, I fortunately hardly notice the lesser protection and the slight speed increases are very nice.

 

Now with the lowered damage of Thunder it is IMO by far not that effective anymore from a close to medium distance.

When an opponent is able to get close you are simply in much deeper trouble than you were before the last Rebalance...

 

 

Nope, instead it has become very effective at a medium to long distance!

The best way to handle the Thunder now IMO is that you start thinking as the average Railgunner. :ph34r:

 

1. Find a Map with possibilities to create space between you and your enemies.

With Thunder you have an advantage at medium to longer distances so you better use that advantage!

 

2. If you get under attack, can you back off? The more you can retreat whilst firing shots at your opponent

the better ofcourse.

 

3. When spawning in the midst of the battle, try to take cover and retreat to a less crowded place as quick as possible.

Don 't be afraid to be a coward! ;)

 

This works the best in bigger maps. The most success myself I had in Desert DM 's.

Won 't tell you all the details: just try to think and play as a Railer would... -_-

 

Had more of these above 10 DL results in Desert DM during the May Holidays event, this was my best.

Used drugs against drugging attackers and used the remaining doped time to kill as much as possible.

Med kits btw can be found plenty in this map: which is handy to say the least..... :)

 

p.s. for the on this post replying "facepalmer" Hayagriva: three non drugging Pro Battles with my Medium M2 kit

and also my other account on the last two pictures from the "past" Pro Battles with Viking M2 (hull kit) and "just" Cedarpaint and "only" Thunder M1.

 

In most battles I also still don 't drug at all. Never bought or will ever buy a drugs kit. But yeah that 's just my word.

Just simply keep getting daily gift drugs that 's all.

 

In this Desert DM I only used drugs when a fully drugged tank was attacking me. A kit might be stronger than others: true, but

even than it still is simply no match against a drugger. So I drugged back.

Fairplay? Nope, you are 100% right in that!

Than again: Tanki and Fairplay? Underneath which rock.....

 

The only bit of Fairplay can be found in non-drugging Pro battles. Wanted already to fully play those battles with M2 equipment:

well it is possible, but if you want to get high scores ánd enough crystals you need at least a M3 weapon. The hull can be M2.

(Except for XP: already have a Hornet M2 and Rail M2 but on different accounts....)

 

Screenshots: buyers sometimes also have a tiny bit of skills   ;)

Viking M2 - Thunder M2 with Prodigi

 

 

with rank 4 diamonds - it is not a deal man :)

You bought a KIT

Viking m2 is from 2 red stars.

So far to reach for other players.

So u got over 50 HP more advance then they.

And better paint - another advantage.

 

So u got like a sword from stil and they wooden.

Higher weapon and tank.

 

I do not say anything about draging :)

double :) x2 - more advantage than other players.

 

It is the same as you go to kindergarden and fight against kids.

To make it the same result - they fave to do this on lover speed

weaker armor, and smaler weapon damage.

 

No fun man, and this screanshoot show - that u just good

in playing and winning with people - when You can dominate by exuipment.

 

Pus some photos when You fight vs - 2-3 red stars ranks.

Like the same equipment :)

 

or - if u are a real ninja

2-3 stars - when You are down power and show how nice u play :)

when hornet m3 apears, thunder m3, freze m3 and so on :)

 

Higher rank, more equipment, more crystals in players garage from game etc...

 

Now it loks like advertisment - buy crystals, get m2 KIT and win with others

who got weaker equipment :) be a hero.

 

Then afeter time You will woke up :) when they will buy sijmilar tank

in their own time :)

 

I know it is fun to buy thing before others.

But nobody take this serius as game skil and kind of result to show others.

 

I kicked yesterday 10 kids in kindergarden, and 1 was from priomary school.

They got each 40 kg body weight and 1 meter high.

 

I am so ninja :) yes man - You are hahahahahahahahahahahahah

Nah, the way to use it changed though. You have to be creative and find new ways to use it effectively.

And here goes - tactic :)

Not only power and biger tank...

[Loackie 269]

What's strange is that this turret and Smoky changed places, making Smoky inferior to almost everything.

[zombie-ass 0]

Thunder really rocks, but not after the re-balance. Thunder's damage really decrease and thunder m upgrades is really expensive, please make it less expensive.

[Vettefan22 145]

^ I like Thunder better now. Of course, it isn't as good on small maps, but on medium-large maps you can kill anyone, anywhere in 3 shots! Just try Abyss for a little ok?

Wow, I used Dictator M0 and my mostly-shiny Thunder M1 in a Rio TDM. I was second, behind a drugging Isida M1. (The only reason I did that well was because this battle was not affected by the Ricopocalypse) What's wierd was that there was this guy w/ a Smoky M1, and it was a literal pea-shooter. Mabye a poorly-made slingshot. It was really weak, nonetheless.

[Vettefan22 145]

^ Smoky is only good in the hands of the truly skilled now. Mostly it is a peashooter.
