Let's Discuss Striker!

[XxStriker 519]

I'm assuming the shooter lagged, and thus the other tank wasn't in his screen at the time, allowing him to hit you instead. Or the targeted guy lagged instead.

[NamesAreForNoobs 324]

Lag, and uranium's reduced projectile speed, can combine to cause that problem.

Striker with the uranium alteration is brilliant on polygon PRO battle mode. On matchmaking I just can't get used to it and end up missing 9/10 shots.

Sounds like you need striker with the "hunter" alteration while playing matchmaking  :ph34r:

It's weak, with no alternative when you finally do see a fatty out in the open.

It actually has better DPM than stock as the time between lockon and lockon reload is faster than the normal reload. It's good when you know you won't hit salvos.

Striker is a rare sight to see unless it's a uranium user. And that's because of the release of the Gauss turret.

True.  Not sure it's worth the trade-off of losing flexibility of salvo though.  The slowness of the missiles hampers ability to get hits on non-open maps.

I like it very much because I can easily kills titan and momouth with striker. And again I can kill easilly kill juggernaut :P

Was doing some digging for past screenshots and found this one where I got more kills than my entire team back when I was maining Striker. 'Twas unfortunate for those 2 players though, as seen in the chat.

That is a lot of salt

He did surprisingly well considering his rank though...

He had M2 Smoky + M2 Titan (fully upgraded M1s). Don't let that surprise you. It was how he got 27 kills and 1 death in another battle I had with him. 

 

That screenshot was on the 30th of January, when he was still a . 

 

He did apologise though, after the 3rd battle with him:

Implying anyone at the lower ranks is new to the game.

[tankhd.jr 24]

That explains it ;)

Not at all

I meant the difference in equipment, not skill. Since he had fully upgraded m1s, there wasn’t that much of a difference as it turns out.

Sorry, I didn’t word very well

Just bought them both but on separate accounts, and can confirm Gauss is the better turret.

 

Not having a laser is a big part of that.

I'm gonna buy Gauss m2 on my KillerDiesel account, just to have that m2 feel.

 

But yeah, Gauss so far is proving to be better than striker.

 

And not being indicated that you're being targeted is the big factor in it.

m2 stock felt a bit weak - you'll need some MUs to perform to high expectations.

 

As has been mentioned many times - Striker needs a modest buff to become competitive.  I see 1 in every other battle - at best.  There's a reason it's not being used.

It is weak. It's one of the M2 turrets on the weaker end, along with Isida, Freeze and Vulcan.

That makes Orka (very) rare.

I don’t know why uranium is still legal

It did get 2 nerfs already. It's most likely generating revenue from players that purchase protection modules against it, or the turret, the alteration and the upgrades for it.
