[C.O.N.Q.U.E.R.O.R 3,845]

Honestly, Vulcan needs the most significant buff. I would go as far as to say that it's the weakest turret in the game as of now. Like, that weak damage is PITIFUL.

you mean it's average damage is just plain weak or... the "weak damage" (at extreme range) is not good?

Average damage is fine, long distance damage is terrible.

[wolverine848 13,097]

Isn't it 50%?  Doing 270 dmg/second at long distance sounds ok to me.

 

Compared to smoky's 206 per shot... :o

[th3g0d 2]

I think Vulcan only needs a slight buff, Hammer, Smoky, and Freeze need the big buff.

 

I occasionally go into a DM with my M4 Freeze. You HAVE to come right up on someone's tail and get them frozen before they can turn their turret or you are dead  against almost any hull/turret combo.

 

Then we have to face the ridiculousness of Magnum where Marshall's one-shot every day.

 

I guess WO5's could one shot us if they could get in our games. 

agreed, freez with u gotta sneek up 

[th3g0d 2]

other way around man, long distant damage is lighter short damage is heavy (powerful)

i've got another  account alsohttp://ratings.tankionline.com/en/user/Raleigh11/

The firebird is OP but Twins is even more OP Twins are some space parkour flipping machine its also very powerful against supplies, but firebird m2 i kill a m2 mammoth without my supplies is this normal?

If you think an M2 Mammoth should only be killed with supplies that's not normal.

There should be a targeting system for Striker for the single shots also

[Re-old-railgun 81]

and buffing rail min dmg to decrease the luck shots .

HP increase will result in Damage increase to balance

What needed is the old HP system , where Wasp was light and hornet had more HP 

But let's wait till the New OD 

You mean the one where Viking wasn't a directly superior hull to Hunter stat-wise? Yeah, I miss that too.

[wolverine848 13,097]

Viking currently is not superior to Hunter (aside from m1 or m2 where one dominates the other).

 

Each has advantages over the other.

 

Depends on if you value high-end speed vs acceleration+stability.

Look, I hate that they tried to make the hulls all the same. It was always Viking for defense, Hunter for offense. Now either one is better than the other and they only have two conflicting stats. TWO. Before the development team decided to strip away everything that made the hulls unique, I loved Viking for it's utility and unique shape. Look where that love got me now. Now I main Titan. At least Titan and Mammoth remain more or less the same.

Don't get me wrong - I dislike what they did.  People bought the hulls for a reason then they changed it all.

Was just a comment on the directly superior part.

 

I had the original Viking and was certainly upset they switched the stats with Hunter - the one I did NOT buy.

 

My alt account I reversed this and bought Hunter - the Viking I used to have.

Which is stupid. They should have refunded us. But then again, I moved on to Titan. Which ended up being cheaper and better than both of them at my ideal role; Supportive defense.

I'd like to move away from railgun and use a more laid back combo. Thinking of using mammoth because of it's stability and the (maybe) future invincibility overdrive. What's the best option out of this lot?

 

Mammoth / Magnum

Mammoth / Thunder

Mammoth / Shaft

Mammoth / Twins

 

I think all of those turrets have decent range. I have vulcan as well but I'm not sure if I should upgrade that as it's a little bit weak.

Vulcan's strong point isn't it's range, it's the chokepoint holding capability and focus fire that can deter enemies.

[gokuMI6 1,290]

Well if they tried to increase the sale oh Hunter and look at it now still same 

only see's it at recruit and M3 +ranks

Viking has better reveser acceleration so it is better at the peek-out / peek-bacl stuff and dodging.  

 

I do not see forward acceleration listed in Wiki anymore?!

Nobody drives forwards anyways.

It is there, but strangely it is called "power" now.

Well not everyone is a French tanker. :p

[T-34-3m 360]

Well not everyone is a French tanker. :P

It depends on the hull and turret. Titan can become a great shover if faced backwards because it puts the turret right in front of the target but not to where it goes past them. With Viking and Hunter it doesn't really matter since they're basically symmetrical with centered turret placement.

[wolverine848 13,097]

And more mults last night...

 

Some genius in CP battle, would not stray 30m from his/her perch on a hill to grab a CP.  Instead, camping with a Hammer in Solimansk while "doing missions".

 

Camping with a Hammer :lol: .    Thanks for all the help you MULT.

I've actually realised people sometimes join to do missions only, for example to collect 10 Speed boosts, as they might sit at the same spawn waiting for that box to drop in order to complete the missions and not participate in the battle at all. That is the annoying part. It seems like the missions are causing the few problems in main battles. 

 

Why not remove those useless missions and add more "Earn 500-2000XP" in battles in order for players to participate more in a game rather than waiting for a dumb box to drop.
