What to buy? Which is better?

Change of plans. Hazel-Rah said he wanted to think of some way to slow down reload, and make splash damage area (radius) bigger.

So I said to myself: screw this. I want to keep up the firing rate.

Yeah, from 96,000 crystals to 700 or something.

The reason why I almost maxed out my firing rate is that I want to keep it up.

 

And the "skill build" I chose to go with was increasing fire-rate because my strategy would be to not to focus my damage on a single spot, but to have the luxury of dispersing it everywhere to inflict damage on more opponents. I mean either way, I know I'm not going to inflict much damage on a guy wearing Emerald. So might as well either knock him off-balance (which explains the last three MUs going to Impact Force, after I couldn't afford damage or reload), or move on to some other opponent, all the while chipping off his armor with splash damage.

 

I invested 5 MUs into damage just for an extra treat or so. Haha.

Especially since Kirby reminded me that the biggest MU's are in the beginning. Thanks for that. :D

 

But yeah. I figured I don't need M3 Freeze. I only use Freeze in an emergency where the opposing team is making a comeback, usually with drugs. Then I go into a defensive stance with Freeze. I figured that I don't need to kill them, just keep them frozen and from getting away.

 

(edit) The MU'ing feeling is crazy. O_O

All it took was ONE click, and I was clicking so fast. It was like an avalanche. So addicting!

Watching my crystals getting washed away. But I guess it was worth it! :D

Still have to wait 7 hours for the last MU, but after that, it's time to use my new and improved Thunder.

My brother wasted all my crystals MU'ing random stuff. Oh well. I was going to get M1 Hornet, but now I can't... This really does not help me with M2's... Hopefully by 2nd Leiutenant I will have enough crystals to get both M1 and M2 Hornet on Sale. My Goal is now not to get M2 Isida, but M2 Railgun. I am desperate for that purple rail ;)

Support your reasoning :)

 

Damn I hope they don't reduce the reload speed, thunder is great right now -.-

Which one ia better choice for smoky/twins-dictator user:

 

İrbis or Taiga?

I would say getting some more Ricochet protection since your Smoky and Twins need a clear path to deal damage.

If you're hiding behind a wall with your big Dictator, you could be an easy target for a Ricochet that's using the bouncing effect.

 

Taiga in general is a more allround medium range paint that has good protection from various short to medium ranged weapons.

+ the main feature of Irbis is the Isida protection, which can be maxed to 50% Taiga can go pretty close to that > 45% 

 

I would get Taiga.

With 250k, Inferno with thunder m3 or Inferno with freeze m3. Take note my thunder is already m2 and my freeze is m1.

Thunder, and MUs.

 

What are your other paints? If you are a thunder user, you might find emerald more useful

^ As said above. Thunder and Emerald get along with each other quite well in my opinion. I've been using it with my combo Thunder/Viking and this paint protects you not only from other Thunder users but with from your own splash damage as well which will really come in handy while facing enemies in close range. 

 

I also happen to have Inferno, which is good, but the fact is, I don't see many Freeze users lately. That's why, I would still prefer my Emerald over it since protection from my own splash damage saves me more health than usual, making me survive more, and able to score a kill no matter what kind of enemy I have to face because Thunder's damage is at it's highest when you're really close to it.

Should I stick with Thunder and Viking? I have them both M1, or should I buy a new hull or turret? Viking M2 unlocks very late so I'm not sure, or just MU its protection?

I suggest you keep playing as the only m2 turret unlocked at your rank at this point is freeze and isida. If you can rank up, you will unlock hornet m2, which I suggest you buying. After, stick with that and save up until you are captain rank, where thunder m2 is unlocked. Buy it, and again play with your thunder and hornet combo until you save up enough and unlock viking m2.

Alright thank you very much.

Which is bettet - Hunter or Viking. WHY?

At the different modifications, how good they are takes into account the unlock rank. For example, m2 Viking is much better than m2 hunter stat wise, but unlocks later. Similarly, hunter m3 is probably better than Viking m3, but unlocks later.

 

Overall, considering m4 when everything is on an even playing field, Viking is slightly slower, but More armoured. The differences are fairly balanced - hunter has 10% less hp, Viking has 10% less speed.

 

Other important things to note - hunter is heavier, less prone to impact from enemy fire, Viking has greater acceleration, more manoeuvrable in small areas, and easier to 'Bob' your tank to aim up and down quickly.

 

If I had to pick, these would be my personal hull preferences for:

 

Isida- hunter

Firebird- hunter

Freeze- hunter

Smoky- hunter

Thunder- Viking

Railgun- hunter

Shaft- hunter

Rico- hunter

Twins- Viking

Hammer- hunter

Going to get Hornet M2 on a sale, what else should I get? I have Thunder M1, Smoky M1, Viking M1 and Hornet M1, or just stick with thunder?

The MU sale's coming tomorrow and I have 219,056 crystals ready for usage on it.

I only plan to MU M3 Smoky. What parameters should I go for? I was thinking damage and critical damage.

this is late, but for future reference reload speed and pushback are also very important for smoky
