Let's Discuss Paints!

[r_borisrozalinov0 1]

Hi I am thinking that for warrant officer 5 good paints are:

Swash

Alien

For my rank storm and mary are good

[Pathfinder 1,690]

I would get alien it has useful protection and isn't expensive, but definitely wait for sale.

Hello . What u say ? Rustle or Emerald ( when i`ll be able to buy it ) ?

 

I play on medium maps , thunder + Titan ... Now , after discc Ricochet is everywhere but in few weeks will not be so played . So , i`m thinking what paint is good for medium maps when i got this combo ?

Rustle has good protection against Thunder that is 34% and it's cheap as well compared to Emerald and unlocks earlier.

It's freeze protection is also decent which is 20%. It can surely help you survive longer against a freeze 

 

Emerald on the other hand has 42% protection against thunder which is more than enough to get protection against thunder

and 26% against twin which will be useful when facing a twin 1 on 1 and 10% against rail can still protect you slightly

and it's a M3 paint which you can use till Gizmo but the problem here is that the rank it unlocks is a little bit later on (Major General). 

 

So if you can wait till then and you are sure that you will have enough crystals by that time then you can go for emerald 

otherwise rustle is your friend

rustle or hohloma?

Hohloma looks better but rustle has good protection. Hmmm in my opinion hohloma would be my favour.

The rise of Spark!

 

This once useless paint has turned into a vital implement on the battlefield. Spark used to be described as 'a useless paint for aesthetics' which only 'looked pretty on the battlefield'.

 

However, as we all know, after the rebalance, ricochet became one of the best loved guns in our garages. Therefore, we need protection against it! We've all seen it, haven't we. That M2-M2 or even M3-M3 has come round the corner, wearing...

DRAGON (22% Ricochet only) 3000

 

Well, when push comes to shove, what other choices do you have?

 

Moonwalker (22%) 3000

In Love (5%) 15500 

Desert (28%) 23000

Spark (33%) 79500 

Hohloma (20%) 108500

Loam (10%) 102500

Urban (5%) 115000

Savanna (15%) 129000

Irbis (16%) 143500

Taiga (20%) 210000

Needle (20%) 210000

Clay (50%) 250000

 

Therefore, if you want good ricochet protection, at a decent price and that is available at a low rank, Spark is for you! However, those lucky ones who got moonwalker have got the best deal yet. One of the best ricochet protecting paints at an amazing low price.

 

What do you think about the rise of Spark, and ricochet as well? Post your comments below!

 

Thanks to SpiderPig1 for reminding me about Moonwalker!

See you on the battlefield!

It has the looks, but it isn't what every one likes.

 

33% rico is okay, but the price isn't worth it. That's why ppl prefer dragon paint, it's 76500 crystals cheaper.

15% fire is not much, unless you use freeze/ firebird and rely on the protection to let you win 1 v 1 duels

10% twins is not much, but you won't buy this expensive paint for that much crystals

 

Conclusion: stick with dragon (and MU's) and save crystals for better stuff

Buy dragon or taiga, not spark

[Amagi 1,728]

Less Electras. :D

[r_SpiderPig12 98]

When you talked about after the rebalance, you meant the new-balance, right?

 

Moonwalker

 

 

Plus, if you were smart enough to get Moonwalker (22% Rico), it diminishes the need for other Rico-Protective paints while looking good. It also was cheap!

However, I still agree with you that Spark has staged a comeback, that it looks cool, that it's a good, efficient paint, and that Rico has been bumped extremely high since the new-balance.

Agreed, I'm so glad I could buy it, it's my favourite paint!

[somnus 64]

rustle or hohloma?

Rico is the most common weapon these days, so take hohloma...

[eg.tankman 218]

Peoples views on Swash?

[HaloScorpion 79]

Not good, save for better paints like rustle/hohloma

[Vettefan22 145]

Thoughts on Alien paint? Would be used with Twins

[HaloScorpion 79]

Meh. So-so. If its on a light hull youre dead even with it probably... Use it on medium-heavy hulls and youre fine

Spark looks nice... It seems.the higher ranked paints are more camouflage-y rather than artistic
