What to buy? Which is better?

[Flaming_Death49 7]

In the garage you can see the kit's expiry date, does that mean new kits will be added?

 

Yes, they usually rotate most of the kits in 2-3 "turns" or 2 week periods

[Flaming_Death49 7]

Speaking of Kits, since I definitely won't be able to rank up to the kit ranks by the tanki B-day sale, I will have to pay the full price for a kit. (Unless it actually is possible to rank up to WO5 in 9hrs of gameplay, which I'm hoping it is) This cuts my options a bit. Here are my thoughts on some of the kits.

 

1) Firewall of Minotaur. My first problem is I have played with both twins and firebird and want something else for m2. Second, I think firebird should belong on wasp, hornet, or hunter. These definitely aren't my first choice.

 

2) Fortress or Atlas. If I was going to pick one, it would definitely be atlas (for too many reasons to list). My one problem is the rank at which it unlocks. At that rank, everybody else has m2s and people will get m3s in just a couple more ranks.

 

3 ) Pitbull or Tornado. I am open to both, but I think I like railgun gameplay much better than hammer. (I'm not really focused on xp/bp)

 

4) Cyclops or Vesivus. I don't like sniping, I think vulcan is for heavy hulls. 'nuff said.

 

5)Boar or stinger. Definitely boar. I don't like Isida but love Rico

 

Please help out with your thoughts on which kit to get. Also correct me on my reasoning if I'm wrong.

Again, I think vulcan should be on a heavy hull, not a medium, unless the kit is op. Why do you think boar is bad?

Do you think it is worth waiting for the atlas kit? How long will that still be a big threat on the field?

[HaloScorpionV2 438]

Ok to make things clearer:

I want to MU 3 turrets (short, medium, long) that will:

- make it hard for people to protect against 2 or all 3 turrets in 1 paint

- be compatible with wasp, viking, titan (when possible)

 

I will MU Smoky and Shaft. Im not sure with the short range turret. The candidates are:

- Isida

- Fire

- Freeze

- Twins

- Hammer

 

Isida is OP, but not very fun to use, and its hard to aim with it using Wasp when being fired upon.

 

Fire is great, but when using wasp, you want to avoid taking damage. You need to get up close, and hit and runs have a low survival chance for the attacker...

 

Freeze is better, because you slow the enemy, and they wont be able to hit you. Great for objective games (which i always play).

 

Twins is great, but its boring, and annoyingly loud. Doesnt fit with wasp.

 

Hammer is great from what ive seen. I dont have it yet, but i think itll be a good investment cause it has recoil if you flip with wasp.

 

Compatibility-wise, Freeze, Fire and Hammer are the best. But, there are a lot of paints that protect against these AND my smoky and shaft (eg. Zeus, Tiger, Picasso).

 

Which of these 3 (Freeze, Fire, Hammer) should i get?

Please answer

Please help out with your thoughts on which kit to get. Also correct me on my reasoning if I'm wrong.

Well, your Fire M1 (depending on if you have MU'd it at all) and definitely your Twins M1 could stretch right out to captain, and you'd still be able to finish in the top end of battles if you play well.

 

Unless you are an XP freak; really good at it or just obsessed with it (you said you weren't, really) then forget about Tornado (148k). I only see it once in a while at my rank, and people who use it tend to manage to stay only just above 1 in their D/L ratio. It's nothing really excellent, so don't worry about it.

 

Pitbull (210k) is really good; Hammer M2 works well if you use it well, as I've seen many people do. Not sure about Hunter. If you want a medium hull with low power, drift when at speed and with a decent amount of speed then take this kit.

 

Same goes for Atlas (186k) and Northerner (190k). Smoky is top-notch, so it really depends on the hull you want. Also, Winter isn't really the best paint unless you play long ranges (you can stretch it to use in medium). Loam is good, as Firebird is quite common.

 

As for Boar (152k), I have seen it become invincible with a heap of MUs. Near M3 Rico and Dictator are unstoppable...  Without MUs, I'd say that it is only slightly above average compared to other kits and turret/hull combos that hang around. I don't see them much at all at my rank, probably because Rico doesn't have the highest damage (again, it's average at M2, no more).

 

If you want the cheaper and easier option, then Boar would last you probably until Brigadier at most, if you want to push the limit. I'm (semi) sure, though, that you would want to buy another M2 once you have it. Rico is only average, and to pay 150k for that..

Smoky or Hammer? It's a pity that the Hammer kit costs so much, but if you could afford it, then go for it. I wouldn't say it is very far off the Smokies. As for Smoky, again, it is easily one of the top M2s. Pick which hull/paint you want, and voila.

 

I'd go for one of the Smoky kits, or Hammer (the downside to Pitbull is its cost).

 

Hope this helps.

Is the Stinger kit worth it? And is it possible to get both Stinger and Firewall/Minotaur?

 

If you rank slow but get a lot of crystals ( earned ) like me, Its  possible  to get stinger and Firewall or Minotaur, But then again, on my other acc I got stinger and Its good if you get it at WO4,WO5,Third Lt.,Second Lt.,and First Lt. , but then It gets bad after those ranks, and since you get a good amount of XP with isida, I suggest you get Stinger kit with the range of ranks I listed, but when your past First Lieutenant, You should switch out isida. Good Luck :)

You should try to get Northerner or Pitbull , both are OP, With Northerners you can dominate small ,mid, and longrange maps and with Pitbull you can dominate mid range maps The only risk for both is to go against a M2 Firebird in a small map which isnt very likely...

Thanks for the help! Say I was actually able to afford something like atlas (I play polygon cp often). How long would that "remain versatile" or how long would that remain a threat on the battlefield. Like I said, It is one of the last m2 kits, and in a few ranks people will get m3s. Also, about the hammer. I said I am open to the idea, but the hammer gamely isn't my favorite, so unless I have no other choice for a better kit I am kind of iffy about it. If its op I'm all for it, but after you said that I am leaning towards atlas.

Is the Stinger kit worth it? And is it possible to get both Stinger and Firewall/Minotaur?

Yes, it's worth it. I currently have 126k, so getting one of those kits in two/three ranks is almost certain. Get Stinger ASAP, you won't regret it.

Well, in Poly CP at my rank Atlas does alright, although I don't really see it very much. Often first to second place. The Firebird paint would help. Personally, I hate opposing Smoky more than a good Shaft (when it's shooting me, that is), so the kit's a pain to deal with, in my opinion. Titan M2 is a good deal, and Smoky easily matches my M3 Thunder in most cases. Back to Poly, I think there are probably better places for Atlas, as there is only one CP and Smoky doesn't perform best in the middle of the map. I would stay on the outside, meaning that you will get more kills and you won't die as much, but neither will you get points from capturing. You'd probably want to play in DM or elsewhere for best results.

 

Don't worry about Pitbull, then. The cost is too much if you aren't sure about it.

 

I'd believe that Atlas could easily last you until you can buy an M3 (Brig and later). The only slight issue I would maybe have, myself, is that Smoky doesn't perform excellently in small maps, and neither does Titan excel in large. I would want to switch out the Titan for a lighter hull in some matches and vice versa with Smoky. So for more general use, maybe go for Northerner.

 

Again, all the parts of Atlas are great, but they only work well together in particular situations (medium maps, it seems). Individually they could all last fine long into M3 ranks, but together when with/in the wrong maps/situations/enemies it'll only perform average. Trying not to put you off it; this is only my opinion. I haven't used Atlas before, so I might be very wrong. Play in the right maps, and you'll do fine.

 

Hope this helps you, too.

Is Desert a useful paint? Or should I get Storm? (I have around 50k cry right now and I'm gonna wait till the May sale to get Fighter)

You don't have any decent paints yet, so either go for a kit or a paint alone.

 

Desert looks good in medium ranges. I haven't used it, but 5% protection on Twins and Smoky probably wouldn't do much. Near 30% against Rico sounds great, although you may not see very many of them; not sure which maps you play in. 10% hammer is a bonus. If you want a simple paint then it seems okay. Don't expect it to make you invincible, though.

 

As for Fire protection, I hear Storm is really useful. I haven't used it, but believe me, Firebird is pretty common throughout all ranks.

 

It's up to you. Storm is more specialised, but you can usually find a Firebird in every second match. Desert offers very nice Rico protection, along with a number of smaller benefits. Rico isn't as common, though.
