What to buy? Which is better?

[Rohit_1997 456]

I could also buy a short range turret to pair with viking. Thinking about freeze cos of how cheap it is and people rarely uses freeze paints anymore. Or twins which got buff twice.

What map do you play most? If a CTF, which position? (Defense/Midfeild/Attack)

Planning to play large maps like stadium, serpuhov and monte carlo more often and some med maps like rio, defense and midfield is my style.

neither of em are the best choice for stadium and monte carlo, considering limited range. Rio defense sounds like freeze, as it has gotten more effective in slowing down hulls.

 

 

 

Quick tip, go poly cp, your exp will increase really fast k

So guys I haven't played tanki for a while now and I was thinking of quitting this account and start playing with my sergeant account once I get a new pc, I'm planning to buy viking and shaft only and spent the rest of the crystals on micro upgrades, would it be worth while?

 

 

If you plan to buy only one turret, I don't think Shaft is the best option. In heavy drug wars, other weapons are more useful and Shaft can't be used in small maps. Well, you can use it, but it fails a bit in there. :P It's great in large maps and several medium maps, but not all of them. As for Viking, I think that's a nice choice. If you can only choose one hull, I really recommend a medium hull as it's useful in all types of battles.

I think Rico is better with titan because firebird needs a faster hull

( and its short range) due it reload but then firebird has great damage and afterburn (+firebird ken kill mammoth in one charge) and wat maps you play? And keep in mind meany gizmo has clay with 50% against rico

 

But overal firebird is better i think because you have thunder m3 for midrange...

 

I think Titan Ricochet can be a great combo to use in those maps, except for Lost Temple, and you're already owning a close and long range turret, so Ricochet being a medium range turret would be a nice complement I think. 

Thanks for the input, guys. Im leaning towards Ricochet I think, and then as I said then I will save up for Clay, then probably head for Railgun M3 so I can do more XP.

I am thinking about buying M1 twins at the sale but when i use twins it wont let me turn my turret and shoot i  have to start turning my turret and then start shooting. 

 

I dont know if this will make any sense but my friend has the same problem so its not just my keyboard or something to do with my pc. 

I dont know if i want to buy M1 twins because of this issue but i was wondering if this problem goes away once i buy M1.

Firstly, You need to get to WO4 by then, so you have some work to do. :)

 

Secondly, I kind of know what you are talking about. When I am driving forward, I cannot turn left. I have to let up on the forward key, press the left key, and quickly go back to the forward key in order to not lose a lot of momentum. With Twins, I would say go for it. It's reload time makes up for whatever you might miss while letting up on the spacebar for a second or two. It is one of the most deadly M1 turrets, in the right hands.

Yes i agree i do have alot of work to do  :)  but i figure i will be able to get to WO4 by the next sale ( helloween?) i know there will be a sale on christmas so i think ill be able to make it. 

 

i can relate to it being deadly, once played with a guy that had dictator m1  and twins m1 he was wrecking.

 

I will also buy viking M1 with it the only thing i am missing is a good paint. i am currently using mettalic with no micro upgrades, i dont know if i should just upgrade my current paint or buy a new one.

If you have Forester and Metallic, you should not worry about paints. Wait until you can get paints that have at least 30% protection against one turret that you find annoying, such as Tundra and Cedar. Then you should wait until you get to Marshall and above for more paints; you will need the rest of your crystals to upgrade your other equipment.

 

Having Viking is a good idea. If you also get Hornet, you should be set for almost any battle. If you get Twins M1, also get a medium or long range weapon, like Railgun or Ricochet. Then you have four different combos, not including paints. 

 

Definitely a sale during Halloween, no idea what it will be. Last year I think it was 25%, Double funds, and 3,000 crystal Gold Pumpkins (Boxes). Christmas will for sure have 50%, so it will be up to you if you want to wait the extra two months (I will be doing just that :P).

Hello. RPCR here, and I just bought Freeze M1 and I am going to rank up in 246 exp to WO3. Currently I have About 500 crys, I am just wondering, after the Rank up, I'll get about 3200 crys, So I'm wondering what to buy, Freeze is my only M1. I am Thinking to save Up for Storm, but I asked You guys just for the sake of it.  :D

[Jehuti 332]

Okay, forget about the Wasp. Now I'm stuck between M3 Twins and M3 Smoky. They seem equal to me. But I can afford only one. Please help me choose. :( My main hull is Hunter, followed by Titan.

 

I would have chosen Twins first, because of its sheer killing power, but some veterans in RU1 tell me that M3 Smoky has a lot of potential (especially since recent updates that boosted its power). So you see the dilemma I have here.

[tankiprofam 4]

nothing, as hornet isnt the hull for Poly CP,

That place is for Med+ hulls

Is rico viking good for polygon CP?

What maps do you play on? That will determine what turret you should get. If you play a lot on Polygon (especially CP), go Twins since everyone has a limited amount of space they can run off to. Twins on larger maps ends up being the heavy hull defender/flag-squatter, while the Smoky becomes cover fire for your teammates while they head into get the flag with Firebird and a trailing Isida.

Yes, it's pretty good. There are better combinations, but it's a nice combo to use in Polygon CP.

Both of them is OP I think. I personally hate Smoky when i face it with my XP combo... 1 Smoky shot and my aim is no longer there. :D

I recommend you to get twins as you can use it in more situations with different hulls. If you ever used freeze or fire, you know how to circle around people. The same can be done with Hornet or Wasp+Twins, it's a deadly combo if used with the right hands.

Hammer will win if he do peek a boo or drives backwards and shoots or isida will win thanks to his self heal, imo.
