So I have like 25k crystals and about to rank up to WO1. I was gonna save for Predator but then I noticed that Osaka, which I wanted to get later on, also had Hunter M1 so that would be a worse deal. So then I wanted to get Striker then Osaka later when I realized that Stinger also had Isida M2 but had Hornet M2 instead and was 25k crystals more and unlocked a rank later so now I don't know what to do. 

Right now I'm pretty sure I have two choices:

1. Get Striker, then Osaka, then go on from there.

2. Get Predator then Stinger and go on from there.

Advice?

Predator, then Stinger. M2s rock. Also Predator is much better then Striker.

Atlas. Getting Smoky early + Loam's awesome fire protection is better then Huntsman.

nope all bad choices now when playing in polygon cp use only Zeus due to the fact most players use close up turrets and not many use rails ..

 

African

Hammer — 20%                                                

Vulcan — 30%

Twins — 25%

Thunder — 25%

 

 

Zeus

Firebird —50%

Freeze —25%

Smoky- 25%

 

 

raccoon

Hammer — 30%

Vulcan — 25%

Isida — 18%

Railgun — 20%

You are right, but in case of no drug battles, Vulcan ,Thunder and Twins are the most used turrets in Polygon

get Predator then Stinger you will be OP for quite a long while and smoky at m1 is not good and only lasts like 3 or so ranks

Is Wasp M3 "good to have" for XP/BP battles, even if you intend on using XP most of the time? I play Poly CP, Desert DM mostly. I've heard Wasp is difficult to control and you get flipped a lot.

Thanks! I'm pretty excited about leaving the Warrant Officer ranks :)

Congrats on the rank! :D But now you might be to high a rank for my rank up party I wanted to have. If your not to high a rank maybe you can come to it. (P.S. I don't know when it is)

No need for it when you have hornet, unless you plan to pursue in clans and esports

The times that wasps were flipped a lot (about 400 times per month) are luckily over. Nowadays a Wasp is still more unstable then a Hornet, but you do truly spend more time on your tracks (at least on one of them driving stunts) then on the side or on your back.

Flipping is perfect as it is now.

 

Hornet/Wasp -> If you are a Hornet Pilot and love it, then stick with it.

Do not think about getting a wasp "just in spare" because:

- a wasp is really expensive

- a wasp needs a lot of practice to truly master it (driving seems easy, but it's hard to aim with (instability), and takes a lot of practice to master it (brakeless drive paths, special moves if you go over ramps, ramp-tip-shots more harder then with Hornet, dodges harder then hornet, ...)

 

So for "ocasional use" it is a waste of crystals > and more > a waste of your time that you could use to hone your hornet skills.

If you decide between Wasp and Hronet - its always better to get really awesome in one, then to get "only good" in both.

 

 

eSports rely more on Hornets and Hunters then on Wasps.. Wasps are a rare sight in realy professional eSports.

 

Many Hornet pilots I know moved over to wasp later on.. most likely as they felt beaten so often by Wasp pilots? But IMHO the Wasp itself does not make the _main_ difference.. it the things you learn while using it, and the time you need to take to master it, that makes the difference.

 

Many Hornet pilots in 1vs1 ask Wasp pilots to leave :)

 

But still an awesome Hornet pilot is better then an average Wasp user.

So stick to one, and get pro.

Thanks! I shouldn't be too high of a rank, I can still easily play with Warrant Officer 1 and maybe slightly lower. Contact me when you are getting close!

How bad of a decision is it to go for Ant over Medic

[bladesaw125 0]

M2 hunter with firebird or m2 viking with firebird??

[assolik 134]

How bad of a decision is it to go for Ant over Medic

Pretty Damn bad, M2 Wasp may seem good and it is but it can't be better than an M3 hull (Viking) Plus Cherry is much more useful than Ibris. I hope you didn't buy Ant man. :(

M2 hunter with firebird or m2 viking with firebird??

Ooo, I say Viking (by a tiny margin). At M3, Fire/Viking is prob better cause Vik M3 is pretty fast. But at M2, Hunter simply put, has more speed. Although if you play Poly CP, M2 Fire/Vik may be your better bet, coz of more health. However, the health difference between Hunter and Viking is... kinda noticeable (but at the same time, not noticeable). In Poly CP, I use Fire/Hunter (on BorussiaDortmund_BVB; i have Dict M2 on this account which has the same health as Vik M2). While Hunter's health leans slightly to the low side, the afterburn effect will do the rest (e.g. If you die before killing your opponent, afterburn will take care of the rest). In general, I'd go with Fire/Vik (for small to medium maps). Vik M2, along with Titan M2, is the best m2 hull

[MOO_I_AM_A_COW 110]

M2 hunter with firebird or m2 viking with firebird??

Viking is slightly better but for how cheap you can get fire and hunter m2 with a paint in firewall I would go for firewall.

If they were unlocked at the same time hunter would be better but viking unlocks later and therefore is better. Still, get firewall.

hi i have 201000 crystals and i don't know  what to buy

Minotaur is pretty good. Twins M2, alongside fire M2, is one of the strongest M2 turrets. Viking M2 is also good. The paint isn't very good, but the hull and turret make Minotaur worth it.

[MOO_I_AM_A_COW 110]

I would wait for Bulldozer as you already have some m2s. You get an m3 and a nice paint against a popular weapon. If you don't like Mammoth you can just use your hornet.

Which on will get my though the Lieutenant ranks and not be okay but extremely effective. I plan on using Atlas at Captain but which of these combos, as I said earlier, will get me past Lieutenant ranks and be very EFFECTIVE NOT OKAY.

 

Predator kit or Stinger kit

 

Thanks :P

Stinger. Stinger will last longer than Predator, easily.

So I am at a bit of a problem. I am the type of tanker that saves his money a lot to unlock kits etc, so I constantly get accused of buying etc. I also like to plan ahead. I currently have 155k crystals. I am saving up for the "Legend kit". That should tide me over (M3 wise). And then my ultimate goal is to buy the "Redneck kit" and then M3 Viking and fully MU Viking. Hunter and Rico. What I want to know is if this is a good plan for the future. Both kits are expensive, and I am shaky about the Legend kit. "If it is the right kit to help me until I get to Marshall and get my beloved Rico+Hunter. Should I get a get with viking M3 and something else, or should I get the Legend kit? I really don't know.
