Mammoth is decent, at M3 modification the extra health could be worth it. At lower M's though, Titan and Mammo's protection are so close that Titan's speed makes up for the 5 or 6 extra hit points, imo. As we said though, there are other parameters that might make Mammoth a better choice for your particular gaming style.

Mammy Isida FTW!! Especially for Duels!

 

jk

Titan can push mammoth, but because of the extra weight mammy has, other hulls have a tougher time pushing mammy than titan

[Bugs.meeny 1,013]

Titan is way better, especially in small map CP's and golds. It's nearly as slim as a Hornet, it's faster, it has more way more pushing force, an that 40 hp minus is nothing.

I agree, but everyone says "40 hp is nothing" but its 40hp compared to titans 1 unit more speed, which is nothing.  I think they should boost up mamys armor a bit

Even more? And further widening the already huge HP gap that light hulls have to deal with...no, thank you.

 

Between Mammoth and Titan: only in a static defending role Mammoth, in all other situations Titan.

I always did feel like even though they're heavy tanks, they're taken out rather easily.

But then again, a Railgun shot more or less neuters a Mammoth and a Titan can be one-shotted by a Shaft.

What I meant was, widen the gap between Titan and Mammy. All the other hulls have significant changes in speed and armor, but those two are too close.

When using Double Damage all turrets become stronger at a level playing field.

 

When using Double Armour all hulls become stronger, but that doesn 't mean at a level playing field.

Wasp (Wasp M4 HP from 180 to 360) for example doesn 't profit much from DA. it just stays fragile,

while a Mammoth (Mammoth M4 HP from 450 = 270 HP more than Wasp, to 900 = 540 HP more than Wasp M4 on DA)

becomes almost a juggernaut.

 

So, I don 't feel sorry for heavy hulls... -_-

Still they both have their purpose, so no need to widen the gap. 

 

It would be nice though if there was indeed more distinction between these two heavy hulls.

Wasp and Hornet also have differences in speed and armour but even more in handling...

I guess it 's difficult to make heavy hulls more distinctive: the slow speed is a hindrance.

I have had Titan early and moved to Mammoth, using Thunder all the way. Both are similar, but I now have Mammoth M2 at the highest Mu, basically M3. With M3 Thunder I almost feel bad taking out the lighter hulls. (almost) I enjoy going for the flag and trying to return our flag. Even if I fail I do a mess of damage on the way. If I am being healed it takes 3 or 4 enemy tanks to take me out. I will continue with Mammoth.

[Superlative 500]

Phew! I thought this was another food article. 

You eat slugs? :huh:

[lolza57snips 0]

mammoth is best iv survived battles more than any other hull and speed means nothing vs a shaft cannon :)

[1creepercraft_tanki 12]

What would be "salt" to these "slugs"?

i think that salt would be along the lines of m3 freeze maxed out mu on wasp...

[1creepercraft_tanki 12]

i now think that Titan is better than mammy but i played ppn titan earlier and i thot it sucked so i didnt buy it and now it is m1 if i buy and i dont have enugh crystals ;(

[The-Operator219 1,929]

The salt? 

Any kind of damage, we're not invincible. .-.

[r_snowleopard0512030 66]

Titan definitely, although I haen't used heavier hulls since.....a while. I'm not much of a camper, my garage kinda stinks :D

[orbanbotond 407]

mammoth 100x better than the titan.

Mammoth is kinda better and looks more intimidating. Titan looks like you took a poor ol person snapped their back and glued them to a pair of tracks.

[KillerGnat 3,135]

Quote from KillerGnat:

 I held that view for months until some of my friends irl began playing Tanki. They had enough common sense to compare each hull and turret with its counterpart. Soon, they had both ditched the Mammoth for the Titan.

 

Are you referring to Pode and I? If you were, I have to tell you that we actually joined TO before you did! :o 

The reason you're higher rank than I is that you, are, a, no-lifer. :P 

 

 

In my opinion Titan M1 and M2 are superior, but Mammoth M0 and M3 are better because the sacrifice of speed is probably made up for with the added health. If you check my profile you will see that I have both M1s of  Mammoth and Titan, I will let you compare my play time on each. 

 

Did you know that my friend, I and many others actually use the Titan and Firebird M0s together, it actually works!

But as most tankers know, any hull with any turret can work from recruit to Master Corporal. :P 

 

Well, you guys stopped playing Tanki for a while, until I began to popularize it here. Then you rejoined. So my point is still correct.

And u ez bigger no-lifer, k. You have like three alts over the rank of Master-Serg.

 

 

But they got a brilliant English anyways.

The reason?

 

>>> 2 homeschoolers B-) <<<

^ 

 

Actually, there are three. eragon33 is one too. B-)

 

 

 

So I assume that the final verdict is Titan? It seems like most agree, except for people who care about looks.

[newrohan 1,040]

 

The reason?

 

 

What reason?
