Anyone can help me to compare M3 viking and M3 hunter shot swinging abilities? Acceleration, weight and height could make a difference in theory, but did anyone try it out which one is better to swing shots to larger degree up- and downwards?

Think imma get hunter m3 at this sale.

Viking has the worst stats and is the noobiest tank

There is no "noobiest" hull. In fact, if there was, I would say both heavy hulls are "noobiest" due to the fact that many (not all) players use twins or ricochet with a heavy hull, which makes it nigh impossible to get up close and personal. only way to kill those is to either do it cannon fodder style (which stinks) or snipe them (which stinks too because the whole point of heavy hulls is to distract and kill a few enemies, and thats exactly what you are doing by killing them). Well, im getting off topic here. Viking and Hunter are both good well rounded hulls. They may not be the best in all situations and with all turrets but they are good for midfielding with enough health to kill most attackers and enough speed to keep up if need be (maybe not exactly on their tail but definitely close enough to use twins or ricochet)

I haven't made a real comparison and this may be innacurate, but hunter is a shorter hull and is less stable than viking (on which rocking is almost nonexistent). I don't have m3 gear yet as you can clearly see, but on M0, hunter is definitely better at rocking than viking, and probably still is at m3 due to the fact that the stats still remain proportional at m3.

Hunter is one of my favorites because you can play midfield, attacker, and flag-taker. Works well with every weapon for me. Except maybe Railgun and shaft, a little too unstable for me with those.

Is it just me or has hunter been nerfed?

 

It's been ok since i got it(wouldn't recommend it though) but the last couple of days some of the D/L's I've been getting in battle have been embarrassingly bad, never had such poor scores before. The hull just seems to get wrecked after a couple of shots...even with double/def it's hopeless.

 

Anyone know whether it's been nerfed, or not?

Viking and heavy hulls got a higher boost in H/P, that is probably why

 

Hunter doesn't work well in every scenario, but you can still get a high D/L if you use it right

I haven't noticed any difference and the stats in my garage seem to be the same. Everyone has off-days where you just don't play well for some reason. Maybe you were just going through one of those.

Should Hunter combine with:

-Smoky?

-Railgun?

or -Firebird

to get the best combination

(These are my best turrets)

It should work admirably with all 3 of them. It might be a little too slow for use with Firebird on larger maps, but otherwise, as the most versatile tank in the game, it can be used with anything quite effectively.

M2 its really good with firebird, firebird doesn't need that much health. The rail combo is a bit clumsy in normal format, rail just doesn't like the bad reaction time hunter has for many tiers, It only really shines with damage drugs or light format, othervice it's pretty much slower xp.

Smoky hunter is very good at any tier, the turrets turning speed and ability to effect enemies driving make it the ideal turret for hunter, that is bad at taking contact with hulls, but just stable enough for the turret.

 

If i was to say the best m1 hunter combo from those, it would be smoky/hunter. Fire/hunter m1 is arright, but m1 fire has bad burning effect, so it often proves to have too little health to sport the hit n' run tactics that m2,3 and 4 fire/hunter shines with. And hunter/smoky is allways a very agile combo, that develops your aiming and driving skills very well.

 

Ofc, fire will prove better on small maps, and rail in campy ones like highways or monte, but smoky/hunter covers alot more ground than the previous 2.

But everyone uses it

Viking is common because it is the earliest medium hull to buy, it is in a LOT of M3 kits, and it is the second cheapest hull behind the very weak Hornet M3. It is also a very versatile hull like Hunter. Lastly, because it unlocks early and is cheap to MU, people usually M4 it by the time they reach Generalissimo, and therefore don't feel the need to buy another medium hull. 

 

I use Viking over Hunter because I have it M4 :P

Guys Hunter is very unpopular because its design makes it vulnerable in battle. I have viking m1 and hunter m2. I do better with my viking m1 then with my hunter m2. Why? It's because it's height makes it more unstable and it's harder to target enemies. It also makes you an easier target because of its height. Hunter looks great in the stats but it's very ineffective in battle especially drug wars. I think the developers should fix up Hunter so the hull isn't forgotten or at least change the name of it. If you are going to name a hull Hunter make the hull an assassin. And the reason I don't agree that Hunter is best suited for Smoky is because Smoky needs to be lower to the ground so it can target the edges of the enemy hulls. With Hunters height I find myself needing to sway back and forth to hit the edge of the enemy's hull to make them miss. This can be a disadvantage in battle especially when the battle is intense. The reason this has become even more difficult now after the update is because now when you shoot with smoky you can hit their weapon as well. It's much harder to make an enemy miss by hitting their weapon. Hunter needs to be fixed. It's also one of the best looking hulls. Tanki don't let hunter be forgotten. It's the classic hull.  ;) Please like if you agree!
