What to buy? Which is better?

[Remaine 4,687]

Im saving for M3 thunder too, Im not sure if there will be sale on 8th. Pretty much doubt it. Need 50k crys for M3 thunder with sale :|

I get the feeling there will be a sale BUT turrets won't go on sale due to Iron Days happening recently - therefore, I think we're in the clear.

Depends of your wallet and tastes. If you specify your actual garage, playing style, crystals amount, crystals earning speed, I will be able to offer you my help.

Okay. I have about 190k crystals but I don't think this will be a huge problem since I mostly play in pro battles. I have M2 fire, isida, shaft, railgun and ricochet. And M2 hornet and viking. The medium kit would be nice for me since my smoky is M1 and my hunter M0. I don't really have a specific playing style, mostly depends on the map and the combo I am using. For example if I am using fire or isida I am going to attack or if I am using rail or shaft I am going to defend. I usually play in sandbox, silence and iran.

[l.Godmode_0N 636]

So I still need 16k to rank up, and I just missed 3 golds, but I got a 1k fund. I still need 7k for Smoky M2 after I rank... And then I realize something awesome :P My SMP runs out on 3/11/2014! Yay

best of luck bro....and by the way wht is smp??

wasp+smoky picture

it has very fine speed and its attack is also good

so i would suggest this combo

wasp + smoky or railgun

Yes, Wasp + Smoky is indeed an epic combo! I recently used it in a Sandbox CTF vs heavy druggers and kit users, and despite their efforts to stop me, my insane speed allowed me to quickly get in and out from their base with their flag before they even knew what was going on. Smoky allowed me to shoot railguns (m3 rails with DP who were using Needle/hornet from the kit...) off of their aim, which HURT REALLY BAD and so I made them miss like 50 times in that match, capping their flag... best game ever, it was so fun and its now like my favorite combo.

 

Pic in spoiler from that amazing match:

I'd buy the medium m3 kit... just cause I love Hunter and Smoky too. You cant use Smoky in clan wars though. Hunter goes well with all weapons, but the problem is that Hunter is somewhat similar to Viking. Hunter is the 'wasp' version of the hornet. Though since your hunter is M0... this works out to be an extremely good deal, same with Smoky being M1... you probably wont get the chance in the future when you want to buy these to get them for such a good deal, so I'd take the offer before its gone, you'll regret not having it down the road. Its 2 ranks away for you though, only downside... and the price tag.. but you said you're fine on crystals so :)

I strongly suggest you get an M1 hull. Hornet works very well. I see you're smart, and realize that railguns hurt. The way around this though is to use a railgun protective paint such as Tundra. Hornet + Tundra + weapon of your choice = guaranteed satisfaction. Viking is alright, but it is more fitting for smaller maps. Since you're a close range lover, you're probably frequently on the attack, and so Hornets speed gives you an edge. Viking would work better for defense, but you might get bored. When using firebird, you have a very long reload period, so Hornet lets you get in, and get out quickly. You deal your damage, and then get back into cover away from opponents as they burn to death, while you reload and prepare for the next deadly attack. Viking makes this a much harder strategy because you can't zip around like a Hornet can.

got it :D

Hello! I am a warrant officer 1. I like to use short range weapons, and I use my m1 firebird with my m0 hornet along with storm. Currently, I have around 13000 crystals. I am about to become a warrant officer 2. When I get around 20000 crystals, should I get hornet m1, freeze m1 or viking m1? Sometimes, I use Viking when I play with higher ranks as they use m1 railguns a lot. I also like freeze and it is also cheaper at higher ranks than firebird and also is stronger than firebird.

I strongly suggest you get an M1 hull. Hornet works very well. I see you're smart, and realize that railguns hurt. The way around this though is to use a railgun protective paint such as Tundra.

I really wanted Fire M2 but I don't really think I can rank before the sale so Should I get Thunder M2 instead?

But I don't even have Thunder M1 here.(btw I have Thunder M1 on my alt. so I know how thunder is)

I am gonna use it with Hornet M2 here though but I use it with Viking on my alt.

So should I still save for Fire M2 or not?

You should do your best to rank up. Firebird is great, and really there arent that many paint protections against it. Both Firebird and Thunder work great in DM's, a friend of mine. still uses M2 firebird to own DM's full of Generalissimos. Thunder M2 isnt a significant upgrade from M1, Firebird on the other hand is huge. I'd strongly suggest you to rank up as soon as possible, use all your drugs if needed, and get Firebird! You already have M1 thunder on your alt, no need to have the same weapon on two seperate accounts. Then you'll no longer have a need for your second account if you have M2 on your main. Plus, Thunder's best upgrades are M1 and M3 (because you can MU it at M3 - and its MU's are extremely good.) I'm sure there will be many sales between the time you reach Brigadier from now, so you can buy Thunder M1->3 all at once, perhaps there will even be a kit with M3 thunder in it. One currently doesnt exist, but perhaps by the time you are Brigadier, the Light M3 will be removed for Hornet + Thunder combo or something. Buying a kit that contains an item which you have at only M0 really is an awesome deal.

 

Problem is we still don't know if the sale is going to be for Firebird or not.

Hmm, I guess hulls are next. Paints (Valentine's), turrets (Iron Days) and MUs (just last week) have already been covered. I think it'd be fair to get your hopes up if there is a sale tomorrow.

 

For me, it depends on what it's for. I will only dip into my savings if Twins or Titan are 50% off - not 25% but 50%

 

What about you?

Thanks for your help. I got 190k + 46k for the 2 next ranks = 256k and its 400k so I need 144k crystals. I can buy like 20-40k if I need them but since 80% of the battles I play are pro I don't think I will need to buy. And Picasso has a nice protection too. Digital is going to be useless when I have picasso. Another question, do commanders and generalissimos use smoky paints a lot?

[lnstantly 1,020]

Viking M2 or Mammoth M2 or Shaft M2?

Needle and MU'd Savanna are fairly common. So is Zeus with 25% default protection, but many MU it to 37-40 if in a non-pro battle.

 

 

Viking M2 or Mammoth M2 or Shaft M2?

I don't suggest Mammoth M2 unless you want to use it entirely for DM mode... or for DEFENSE in CTF mode, particularly in small maps. Otherwise, Titan or Viking are far far better options.

 

Shaft is great, but few people know how to use it well, and if you already have something like Railgun, probably would be better for you to get a close to medium range weapon since you'd have long distance already covered.

 

What else is in your garage? Paints - hulls - weapons? Its hard to give someone a useful answer without knowing their current circumstances. How many crystals do you have? What are your goals, favorite maps, and favorite combos? Play style?

[blackopspaul 753]

Wha?? There might be a sale on the 8th? I still need 20k to rank :( And I'll never get 9k in time :(

dude its on hulls  :angry: 25% :( why? :angry: wish tanki made it 50% turrets,hulls and paints :)

pyhton not worth it for your rank maybe inferno or emerald

great

 

Viking M2 or Mammoth M2 or Shaft M2?

viking

[doduobird 315]

Ok so there's a 25% hull sale, not interested. I'm waiting for a turret sale. But as Raph predicts, a sale on the 8th  :blink:  :ph34r: Do you guys think a 50% sale on turrets will come soon?

[r_brandybabyxx0 737]

Good question , Titan m2 + Freeze m3 + Pyhton worth it? AMDTU

Why python? Why not Inferno or Zeus or a better paint altogether? Its not a good idea to accumulate many low ranked paints, they all become useless once you reach the high ranks.

 

Freeze M3 and Titan M2 are certainly worth their prices, M3 freeze MU's really nicely, and M2 titan is much better than M2 mammoth, I use it frequently, and it works very well in drug wars. Same with freeze.

 

Python isnt really worth purchasing if you already have unlocked high rank paints unless you're extremely scraping the bottom of the pan and you have nothing but like forester, and not enough crystals for a nice paint.. then I suppose if you have to, it could suffice... absolutely last resort... but you'd need to replace it quickly. Even Rustle is far more useful than Python.

Viking M2 or Mammoth M2 or Shaft M2?

M2 Viking - Great upgrade from M1. Can survive full M2 Shaft blast, compared to M2 Hunter or M2 Dictator.

 

M2 Mammoth - Only get if you play DM. Other than that, go for Titan

 

M2 Shaft - It is strong at M2, but it isn't a good primary turret. Use it as a backup

My M2 weapons: freeze, isida, thunder and railgun (with MU's). My M2 hull: hornet (maybe later viking M2). And other hulls/weapons are M1's. The standard paints that I use are swash and jaguar. I have currently 34354 crystals, but I think, I gonna buy crystals. My favorite map is silence. My favorite combo is hornet with railgun. And I love to play in TDM/CTF.
