Woaw dude, you are going to loose. don't post on Vulcan if you hate it

I was playing against someone with firebird m1 and they made my tank burn red MUCH faster than my m2. How is that possible? What do I need to MU to do this?

How can I make opposition tanks get red faster?

[NewbieCake 3,067]

M2 is just... nasty to face. Unless you have  paint that's over 30 prot.

Increase the burn time. ;)

Increase the burn time. ;)

I suspect the MU update just killed Firebird.

[Tank_TR1 1]

Increase reload time..and a little more intake. It sucks when fire has like 5 seconds and freeze has like 7-9 seconds

If Viking then why not hunter it has more speed . Personally I'm a Viking user :p

Hunter arguably has the worst features of both. Weird Drift, More Weight (not anymore) and it unlocks later than both at M1, M2 (Hornet Only) and M3. It is also more expensive.

 

I have all 3 hulls M3 and personally, I think Hunter is quite good. Its very underrated but I can see why people don't like it much.

 

As for with Firebird, it doesn't really fit. Viking is awesome with it on small or tight maps and Hornet is great with it for medium-big maps. Hunter is in-between so it can be used for both, but there is always a better option. 

[austen_pierce 1,948]

Firebird on Hunter is not bad but not the best choice. You keep Hornet's maneuverability without losing much speed. You also gain a lot in armor.

Hunter is Fatty. 'Nuff said k

[jakethedarkofdeath 14]

firebird is a very good gun,total damage can give you a ton of atvantage here's the good thing:

contains tons of damage,can damage even thougives you twice the much xp you get for killing 1  tank which is very good if you need 30 more xp  to rank up.the bad thing is short range,long reload time.

Someone here use Firebird M2 as main weapon ?

I Do!

[r_ariel1200 0]

Viking

I find Viking works fine, I have no issues with it.

You just have to pay close attention and set up ambushes to compensate for your lack of speed.

[austen_pierce 1,948]

I see a lot of Freeze and Isida ambushes. Fire is a good idea, but usually those guys are out in the open toasting everything in sight.

Just think like a Pyro would in TF2": Don't take obvious routes, never charge into a group of enemies.

Also, tunnels are your best friends because they can't maneuver out of range.

I have fire bird m2'd. I find it one of the most efficient gun for owning the battlefield. It really pays to upgrade it, my fire bird is upgraded currently to 45/50. I hope to have it completely upgraded by the time i am the right rank to m3 it. I highly suggest investing in fire bird, as m1 it is the only m1 gun you can get at that young rank. M1 fire bird is pretty efficient until the ranks after warrant officer without upgrading. When you M2 the gun, it is immediately the most powerful gun on the battle field. But like most guns, it quickly becomes less and less effective. Loam and jaguar will begun to be your worst enemies. I highly suggest you invest in fire bird, and be sure to get your buddies to take out the loam's. Burn on!

I love my Loam paint. Threw a lot of Fire MUs into it. I can almost see the confusion and frustration on the faces of Firebirds who just can't kill me...

My fire almost m3
