What to buy? What to use?

Recommended Posts

mammoth twins is pretty good for DM

viking usually works better with rail although I'd pick dictator because of its height and can hit certain places or hornet because of its speed

 

 

Ricochets have become weaker as they fire less shots till they cool down,( which is 2x slower than normal)

 

You should get ricochet m1 first, its always better to get the turret first before the hull

thanks

Isida is great for point gaining. Since the rebalance, it is a formidable close combat 1 on 1 gun and can beat any other gun. It's healing power is still pretty good as well and is a great support gun

 

Freeze is pretty good and is still commonly used.A Great defensive gun and has a wide radius compared with isida and firebird. The gun is also good for Ctf and has good dps

 

The burn effect for firebird is alright. This gun is not too good, would be better if it did the same damage as freeze does. It's burn affect does kill the odd occasional enemy but I guess this guns suited towards attacking and sometimes defending. A useful thing to note though is that it can defrost a tank

Which weapons and hulls are actually the most common? There was a thread a while back for this, I tried to make it stay alive but it went away in the end I think... :D

 

I look at the paints and try to decide which ones would be the best for all-purpose playing basicly...

Should I spend all my crystals on getting 8000 xp nearer to ranking up or should I wait?

I personally wouldn't 'waste' crystals on getting xp. Ofcourse it's anoying when you have enough crystals already and still need tons of XP. But i think,

for the 'balance' of XP and crystals, it's better to wait or buy other things, to get more diversity in playing and gaming, if you're bored/sick of a gun sometimes...

I currently own M1 Smoky and M1 Wasp. I'd like to have a close range weapon, most likely Freeze or Isida, but I can't decide which one to choose. Isida seems a bit harder to accumulate points IMO, but I do like its healing feature. The thing about Freeze is:

 

a)you aren't everyone's first target (like you are with Isida)

b)you can attack multiple enemies at once

c)you can kill isida's without them even touching you if you make contact first and keep your distance

d)you are versatile because you're a great defender and attacker

e)you can freeze..... which really annoys people and makes them nearly useless for about 5 seconds

 

So I think I'm leaning towards freeze, but I can't decide which hull to use. Dictator seems like a good option because your turret is higher off the ground, allowing your Freeze spray to people on higher elevations easier, and you dont have to worry about towering over other enemies directly infront of you because its a 'spray' so you still hit short hulls that are in your face. Dictator has decent HP to allow for good defending ability. The only problem I see with Dictator is the horrible M2 and distant M3 upgrades.. they're nothing to be too happy about. But upgrading the Viking is a dead end with its horrible M3 upgrade, so then the choices are Wasp or Hornet. I love my M1 Wasp, it's amazing paired with Smoky to hit and dodge nearly anything that comes my way. My problem is that with Freeze, I have to be out in the open, not able to take cover while attacking, so I need a decent health pool to sustain me while I do my damage. Is it worth getting the Hornet despite the fact that I already own an M1 Wasp and plan to M3 it as time goes on? Would Hunter be practical? I think it's wise to use a hull with more HP than less so that drugs will be more beneficial. (I do not buy drugs and rarely use them, I think they're really cheap, but the ones which fall from the sky are blessings.)

 

Then again, maybe my Wasp is best still? So that I can run circles around my enemy, with a smaller chance of being hit, such as when I'm fighting a rail/smoky/thunder up close, the faster I can move to get behind him before he reloads, the less damage I take. But if I choose a medium speed hull, it will take longer to get to my opponent's backside and as a result I may very well take another hit from them.

 

Also, which mid-rank paint as Freeze???

 

Any other suggestions are greatly appreciated and will surely be considered.

Most people go for hornets for freeze and I would too

 

Wasp is just too weak, I would know because on the test server you get killed just too quickly. Wasp is mainly designed for railgun and smoky but freeze might work with it but you'd have to be pretty good at avoiding being killed.

 

Dictator is alright, bad thing though is that any tank that rams into the side of the dictator is pratically immune. WHY? because of the height of the turret, it just shoots over the tank, this strategy works only for small tanks like wasps and hornets and it is really annoying. Dictator is not really made for freeze. Choose viking because it is shorter and is wider so has more stability.

 

Hornet is probably best as it has good speed and has good health.

Well first... How is it hard to Accumulate points with Isida? It's an Exp Farm, so long as you use it correctly. Anyway, Isida isn't exactly the hardest thing to use, but since you're talking about being the Main Target, you're going to need a Hull that's versitle enough. Meaning, Decent amount of HP and speed. Hornet in my opinion, won't get you there. It's only got Speed to back it up. But the HP is horrific. A few good placed Shots and you're through Booking. Viking would be a superior choice.

 

Onto Freeze... Freeze kind of dips into both Defense and Offense, but mostly Defense, seeing as though you can freeze and go around anyone you see as a potential advesary. I mostly see people use Freeze with Hornet, but again... Hornet's a little Weaking... Especially under extreme Gunfire from Guns such as Thunder M2, Railgun, and Twins. So, I see Viking and Mammoth being a good Option.

 

Now Dictator... Dictator's Height gives it the edge under some circumstances, but it also can be it's downfall, the best Weapons to use with Dictator would be Twins, Thunder, Rail, and probably Rico; seeing as though they all have a Targeted Hitting objective, unlike Freeze on a Dictator, it's almost impossible to attack someone, because of the Height you're at.

 

 

Hunter and Wasp... I can't say too much about them, simply because I didn't really use them.

Ok so I only have 200 crystals right now and mainly use just vanilla rail, shaft, viking, and mammoth.

Should I spend 180 right now for Isida and then head for the rail m1/viking m1 which I want or go straight for them?

Ha i have 1169 crystals
