Dictator


Recommended Posts

Dictator is a classic hull. Its not used by most but I think its speed needs to return back to normal. M0 dictator should not have a speed so close to M3 titan. That's just messed up. Also in terms of height Dictator is very easy to be spotted and needs speed to move around quicker without being detected. I am not complaining I am making a statement, so hold ur horses. Viking on the other hand should be reverted to its original speed, well the one it had before the Future hulls update.

I agree dictator needs faster speed, it was a great hull but it was ruined it when it turned into the heaviest medium hull and its speed got nerfed. Although it does seem like its suitable to be the heaviest medium hull, so that shouldn't change.

You realize that dictator is supposed to be the fourth fastest hull in the Game, now its not and you notice how big dictator is, its not meant for soaking up hits.

The old Dictator was overpowered, from what I can tell. Fast speed and very high health. Giving Dictator more speed would upset the balance.

 

Dictator's large hitbox is counterbalanced by the height (easier to hit targets on higher elevations, ability to get drop/gold/crystal boxes before others do). I currently see no problems with it.

I don't care that dictator can take gold before others can, but I care about its speed cause its a medium hull which is supposed to have a balanced speed, and health. Not M0 dictator being so close to M3 Titan.i use dictator a lot and I didn't upgrade it on Tankmans day because the speed is worthless and useless.

I use Dictator a lot too, but I'm not complaining about the speed. Medium hulls are supposed to be relatively balanced compared to light hulls and heavy hulls, but that doesn't mean that Dictator has to have the same statistics as the other medium hulls. Otherwise, it wouldn't matter which one you choose.

@Arun: Well, I'm not so sure about how you say Dictator is SUPPOSED to be the 4th fastest hull in-game, etc.

Tanki Online is a game that keeps changing. So I suggest you get used to it. Remember what happened to Viking?

Furthermore, it mentions nowhere in the in-game description that it is supposed to be the 4th fastest full. :rolleyes:

 

Also, Pizzaslad brought up Mammoth as a comparison. Read his post again.

 

As for how can Dictator be the best gold catcher when it can't get to the Golds? Easy. Lets take a look at Mammoth. How can it get to Golds that fast with such low speed? :( :( :( Lol.

Well, IF you're an experienced tanker, you'd probably know the places Golds can drop in. With Dictator's supreme height, it can reach the gold better than any other hull.

 

I forgot. I may be wrong about this. But wasn't Dictator supposedly some type of Heavy Hull. Lol. Especially due to its size. :P

Again, I may be wrong. :lol:

I don't like viking as its quite flat and can't even land properly even if u swirl in free fall. Only when using nitro or a platform do u land. And since its flat when it lands on its side the slightest touch causes it to tip over. I know theres nothing in the description stating dictator is the 4th fastest hull but what do you think it was before the rebalance and before in the beginning. Tanki only finds reason to ruin the good hulls and turrets.

The last part of your statement is one of the biggest ... I don't even know what to call it  I have ever seen. So what? You want a Mammoth driving around with Wasp's speed?

in terms of height.

I like to use dictator to rush in to enemy lines and use freeze to take down rails, thunders and shafts. The old dictator wasn't even used that much and it can't be OP if it was barely used. To be honest viking should be one of the heavy hulls. Its to wide to land properly.

@Arun: I never said anything about you using Viking. I only reminded you of what happened to Viking.

Furthermore, the old Dictator was barely used because, well look at the rank requirements for it. The M3 was unlocked at Generalissimo. Do you expect to use the M2 version at Marshall rank? Lol. By then you should have M3/M3 combinations already.

 

Well, it is most likely that Dictator became the heavier of the trio due to its immense volume. When it was lighter, it was simply too large/tall to take hits, as it will be knocked off balanced easily.
