Let's Discuss Ricochet!

Has anyone tried the spash damage alt? Wondering how it compares to thunder splash.

It is not that worth it

the Bounce is way better than a tiny bit of splash that is going to sting on close range

Agree, I wasted crystals on it. Should always rent those first.

Those are player's who have equiped the MFS i think

I dont equip it and i turn my turret and i am prety good with it

Wait - what?  :o

 

I have MFS equipped - permanently.

 

And I can turn my turret and kill enemies at the other end of Serpuhov.

 

Get bent.  :P

+ there is a reason rent exist now you know

XD

i have MFS , but un-equiped permanetly 

i think its those new breed of Rico's 

And these new species have caused an increase in Rico protection's

The massive advantage Rico has over many turrets is high firing rate and insane impact force, thus making it a great short ranged turret. Equipping the MFS alt, takes away the high firing rate, making the impact force almost useless. But it does make Rico great at long range.

MFS increases the range and the speed of the balls.  IMO the impact is more as the balls arrive at target faster and closer together

Exatcly that is why i dont use it , i wasted 25k for it and i never equip it

i enjoy killing enemies faster

if i wanted slow killing i shall go SMoky , MFS makes Rico as SMoky on drugs 

[caiosilvac 567]

I use MFS at all times, except when I face other Ricochet users on small maps.

My friend with M4 Rico says its range is all good for medium maps

i have m3 , and i find the reload more beneficial than the Range 

+ the last Slinet buff have helped me very nicely , the projectile size increase 

[caiosilvac 567]

Mine is only M2 (alt account) so the alteration helps increase range which is kinda lacking at M2. MFS benefits me because I can scare people away from a distance while I approach the flag. I can also camp and drive people away with the increased range. Projectiles reach targets faster which can surprise and disable many attackers.

But you lose the constant knockback, which has served me well on another account against many players.

Just tested - shots look like they leave the gun with same amount out time between shots.

So knockback between versions should be same.

I use it with Viking , and i am kind of @Ninja  :P

IDK how 90% of time they dont see me coming untill i have landed 2/3 shots on them  B)

 

Mine is also m2 bt 10/10 , M3 rico on Major is  :ph34r:

Mine just arrived at m4 and it is a wrecking ball with the alt...any board with vertical walls or tunnels is bad news. Hit overdrive and it 3 shots most light hulls and 4 shots most medium hulls. Good days!!!

riochet is the weapon which needs the most amount of skill, as a rico user myself, there is no weapon which needs better skill to master than rico, except maybe for magnum

This is the biggest amount of bull crap I have ever heard :rolleyes:

[DEVlL 80]

Ricochet and titan is a beast combo, almost impossible to beat.  A lot like twins and titan but with the ricochet effect and longer range.

[gokuMI6 1,290]

I am a Rico user my self 

I dont think rico is the one which needs more skill than any other turrets

All of them needs Skills to be used effective { yes including Twins , but it require less  :ph34r:  :P }

 

IMO Stiriker is the one needs lot of skill , even if you have skill you need luck also to be good with Striker  :(

 

But i am loving the New striker { :ph34r: , Dominating }

I think Rico is very solid at m3.5. If someone doesn't have protection it can be dominating, depending on the board. The challenge at the upper ranks is if they have protection and DA, then you will run out of your energy before you destroy them...that is where the long range alt is helpful...it gives you the option of landing several shots before they are close...giving you some time to drop a mine, hit some cover, allow a few seconds of recharge and then come out swinging to finish them off.

 

On a side note, I have both alts. Don't waste crystals on the splash damage...it really doesn't give enough of a radius to really matter. If crystals are no problem, however, get it for kicks and play with it. On some boards it is helpful.

Ah, thanks. 

I meant save up for the alt next sales and get rico to m3.5. 

<_< Not that rich for m4 rico

I just play the missions, save, save, save and every couple of weeks take another step closer to M4. I chose 3 turrets and three hulls to slowly MU toward m4. So far I am almost there. On the other turrets I have taken most to m3.5. When sales hit, I don't waste crystals on the speed ups. Be patient and you will have a good garage slowly but surely.
