Let's Discuss Ricochet!

[Thomas11239 366]

Guys, should I choose Rico or Smoky for my main gun? I'm usually attacking, but will also snipe. Which is better in the long run? My hull is Hornet.

I would go for smoky

[austen_pierce 1,948]

I would go for smoky

Agreed. Rico in not good for sniping.

I have an m0 rico and i nearly have all the micro upgrades 43/50, I'm not bragging but to be honest even though I have rico, every time i see people with hornets or wasps they would always attack from behind,knowing it will take a long time for the rico to turn around so I could attack. so yh

 

The best way to attack are to use freeze/isida/twins(high upgrades) and hornet/wasp/wiking(high upgrades) if you have them attack them from behind and try to stay out of there turning region. try to confuse them a lot, thats what a lot of my enemies tend to do so yh. 

 

(no, I'm not dumb if you think i am now that i have told a way to defeat ricos and i'm one)  <_<

You don't have to turn that far. You just need to find an angle for your "bounce".

Using Ricochet M2 on madness.

 

[The-Drag 60]

Should I MU my Rico M2 or wait? I don't want to use other Turrets a lot but imo it is impossible to reach Marshal with Rico M2.

With stock M2, you will make it to and possibly through Brigadier. You'll HAVE to MU or buy an M3 to compete.

well ricochet is very cool it hits where you can not see your enemy that's the good thing

but the bad thing is you can self-damage yourself for a example,you have very low health you hit your ricochet and it bonces back to you if it hits you the board [in the battlle] it will say"jakethedarkofdeath self-destucked 

[Vampire104 1]

on 1 on 1 it usually fails unless there is something to ricochet the balls like a wall or pillar. When you have low health rico annoys way to much

[umar212_online 0]

i think rico rules ;) 

[gameboy3333 0]

if you have rico and get attacked from behind,turn you're hull and you're turret for better turning speed

[austen_pierce 1,948]

^this.

[Bydo 20,120]

ok guys when your on the ledge in polygon when your  flipped over

 

turn the turrets / gun     to shoot the wall

 

 using  recoil to help you get off the ledge back to normal when u hit the ground

 

 

 

also  as you descend off the ledge remember to hit  C   to get your ricochet back to the middle so you can continue to shoot players in the game

 

if you need a demo on this please pm anytime

U must face titans and mammoths a lot because I find my m1 rico taking on any opponents other that those easily. It does take a bit of precision, as you must hit corners of enemy tanks to minimize the chance of them charging towards you or hitting a shot in the correct direction. Hope I helped

Rico packs quite a wallop! I've learned the hard way not to approach Rico tanks head on unless I'm using something like Hammer or my own Rico to knock off their aim.

Rico and hunter in some maps, but rico and viking is better

[The_blacklisted 22]

I think hunter is better when you need to be switching between attacking and defending in short periods of time.

Viking for sitting midfielder or assisting quick assaults

[RicoGod 1,832]

Rico and Viking is better than my opinion but, Rico and Hunter is a good combo as well. Its just faster than Viking but, less protection.

[LightTankKitM3 32]

Rico and Viking is better than my opinion but, Rico and Hunter is a good combo as well. Its just faster than Viking but, less protection.

The 7 points of health isn't going to be your entire health bar, M3 Hunter is almost better than M3 Viking in everything, think about it, 1 extra point of speed (which happens to be a lot) and slightly less health for less pushing power, the only reason I think I'd want to but M3 Viking is just for how cheap it is, and maybe the looks too. :)

[austen_pierce 1,948]

Both are good with Rico. Hunter loses maneuverability on nitro due to the skid, so it can't corner to save its life. That is a serious problem for CTF and other attack/defense situations where speed and precision are needed.

how long does m1 rico last for?

[railguniz4noobz 2,394]

how long does m1 rico last for?

Until WO4

How is Ricochet M2 when it is fully microupgraded?

 

Sometimes I will come up against another M2 and it seems much more powerful than mine (19/50 on microupgrades).

Don't fully MU your M2. Unless you buy crystals with real money. You will need those crystals to buy M3 equipment.
