Let's Discuss Viking!

[Buggati_The_Best 1,233]

Every time i dont play XP 

I play with Viking.

Just an amazing tank for drugwars and capping flags. The only thing is that he isn't that good for goldboxes, 

My score for Viking: 9/10

I love Viking very much but I think at M3 it is very under-powered compared to the other medium hulls.

 

Perhaps they should make it unlock at a higher rank such as Marshal or nerf some of its competitors (Hunter and Dictator), but that is just my opinion (:[/quote

 

 

I second this. Viking m3 is under powered compared to dictator. I'm not sure about m4 though. Does anyone know how good the MUs are on m3 viking?

Viking is usually slow for me.... But once it gets into the fray it is highly effective. Good enough maneuverability, good HP, but huge target for railguns. With M1 Hornet I can dodge a railgun 25% of the time. Those railgun hits are what can stop a Viking in its tracks.

[M1-A2 840]

Might I suggest a paint that protects against railgun if they're a problem for you.

lol I've caught 1 more gold with M2 Viking than M2 Wasp: 

4-3

I've also caught one gold with M0 Wasp, 4 ranks ago.

Same here, I suggest getting corrosion paint or dirty to protect against snipers. They are a real pain for Vikings

I agree with corrosion. It's an awesome paint for a midfielder. I personally use corrosion with my viking. Whether I'm using shaft or thunder, it's done a fantastic job of keeping me alive. The protection that it offers has helped me stay alive, even when I take hits from DP m2 railguns.

Viking-

 

1) Best Power of all hulls.

 

2) Probably one of the most versatile hulls.

 

3) A great Hull for most turrets.

 

4) My favourite hull at the moment.

I agree with each point except for 1.

It seems it has less power than any hull heavier than it.

[atomicbomb2 32]

Wel you cant disagree since its a fact...go look at all of the hull stats, viking is on top.

[Beast_360 0]

Should I get Viking m1 or just go for hornet m1. Now Viking with nitro at m0 is actually pretty fast so I was wondering how fast it is at m1. Good Armour medium speed. so?

Duh. Viking is the best by far. Reasons:

 

1) Exceptional speed for a big tank.

 

2) Amazing protection.

 

3) Usable in nearly ALL maps.

 

4) Usable with all turrets.

 

5) Amazing stability.

 

6) 2nd most powerful hull. Easy getting golds in hill with it.

 

I speak from experience. I have M3 vik and I wouldn't swap it for anything! :D

 

Regards,

;)

No. It is THE most powerful hull. Read the stats!

Titan is the most powerful tank... F = ma...Viking also has a less than ideal speed, making it not as ideal with Fire or Isida. Its turret position makes it less than ideal for Rail and Shaft. Also, It's the third lightest tank ingame, making it more susceptible to impact force.

Ok, from what I know, The lightning sign means power.

 

Viking has the highest number

 

Therefore, making it the most powerful tank.

Power times weight equals the pushing force of the tank.

I'll be quiet now, continue.

idk what else there is to write about regarding pushing power tbh

[fighter309 384]

Yea Viking just needs a buff in its weight. 

 

I liked Viking a lot when it was heavier and slower, but I still consider it as my fav hull (along with Dictator).

It really doesn't imo. Its stats are incredibly solid, it needs a weakness.

[r_NOOBalicious0 119]

M2 dictator would beat M3 Viking in a power test. Experiment people!

Oh really? We will try it ok.

It's weakness for me is it's handling and wide body.
