Sandstone - General Opinion

[TheLonelyEpic 212]

Hi, I'm definitely curious as to why Sandstone is not a very prestigious paint. In my opinion, it clearly has good protection against some of the most common weapons, and, it's at an alright price with an earlier rank. So, please tell me whether this paint is a hidden gem, or simply not up to snuff.

Taken from the EN Wiki.

Awesome paint.

5% against twins isn't so much, and you don't find many battles with shaft in it, plus 14% against thunder isn't much either :)

Meh, I'd prefer Rustle.

Meh, I'd prefer Rustle.

Then your just another statistic.

One of the most nonsensical things I've heard. Apart from the appearance, what else do you judge on? Statistics! I've heard you say idiotic things in the past but this is by far the stupidest thing yet. And infact, I DO like Sandstone, just that I'd prefer Rustle.

Struggling to find how it doesn't make sense, but then I would need to lower my standard of judgement to your level, and if I do, i'll find it hard to come back. Your just another statistic....because everyone uses rustle.

You don't have enough rank to get it ._.

Doesn't mean he can't prefer it...

I have and used Sandstone. It's quite effective against railgun and bit against thunder and shaft. So, I'm going try MU a bit on it.

[Remaine 4,687]

I've used them both on the test server; how else do you think I was able to make a genuine judgment? Use your common sense. And by the logic you're using, Wiki-tank "don't have enough rank to get it" either.

 

Your grammar is abysmal.

It doesn't make sense because you've called me a "statistic," if you're using that in another context then it's one of the stupidest contexts possible. And don't try to tell me about my judgment because I only have to go back and see some of your posts to know that's rich coming from you. So, instead of pathetically using words in the wrong context, why don't you try and elaborate on why Sandstone may come across as underrated?

What about 20% off rail?

Dude you're stupid, testing the paint on real server and test server is completely different!

 

On test all your enemies are M3 M3 and druggers, but on real server you find M1's and M2's.

 

So stop being stupid.

 

Anyways, sandstone is a quite good paint, but I only see Rail + Hornets both M2 using it :P

[VectorSierra 199]

Simple reason:

 

20% Railgun protection still isn't that much.You still get killed in two shots (On certain hulls like hornet).

 

5% Twins protection is nothing.

 

14% Thunder protection is good though.It can protect you from 3 or more shots (Depending on the range though).

 

15% Shaft protection is good too but at higher ranks,you barely see any shafts.

LOL, how far back did you dig for this?  :lol:

[mohmmed-22 29]

Lol, I'm smarter than you.

(facepalm)

 

They both should be playing, fool.

 

And I won't get out of here, if you do. Make me. :)

I think Corrosion is a better buy. Either Corrosion or save for something like Prodigy or Rustle. I'd suggest getting something like Rustle or Prodigy actually . . .

I have Tundra anyway, so I'm not hunting for a paint anymore, although maybe Digital will sway me...

Oh yes sorry I meant Digital, not Prodigy. Either go for Digital or Rustle.

Nobody uses Sandstone these days. It's too unpopular, but it's awesome to pick and mix your tank, to be honest :)

Lol, you're pretty inferior. If I wanted to test a paint by shooting the turrets at an alt with Sandstone, why would they BOTH need to be playing? Not like the protections go up when moving.

Your whole argument is a fail.
