guys! what to do?

1. buy boar, minotaur/jam and get firebird m2

2. buy boar, firewall and get twins m2

the bad thing is that neither of those options got a long-range weapon and a light hull, and these would've been ok since i play some madness when i get place :P

so, should i get XP m2? asking because i am not of a xp fan and i will buy them just to have something for bigger maps.

IMO M2 dictator isn't good so maybe you should get tornado and mino kit, those 2 can last you long, or you can get northerner and , m2 fire, and tornado, but if you do get boar, pls dont get jam, jam and boar both have m2 dic so it's not worth it

IMO none of these kits are that good , but healer kit might have  a chance, but I suggest you get refridgerator bumblebee, or medic, but if u can fully MU M3 thunder in a very short time, get manowar or raiden

Hi, how good is Vulcan compared to other long range guns? If I were to get it, how useful would it be over other turrets I have? Is it worth getting?

Depends entirely on the map. If you'll get clear shots at the enemy, Vulcan usually works really well. If not (for example, if playing against Railguns which pop out of hiding for only short amounts to time) then the Rails will do better by far (especially when considering your fire-up time).

 

As for simple range, I'm not too sure. You could look at the stats yourself, and your thoughts'd probably be the same as mine (if I look at them myself, which I haven't). With my limited experience, at long ranges it'll take a lot longer to kill someone (heaps of detail there :lol: ). I vaguely remember hearing that it does 25% total damage? Anyway, you'd still be fine as a CTF defender, etc. on those larger maps.

Then it totally doesn't sound worth getting. I think I will just get Firebird M3 and then work on the rest of my equipment for upgrades. I will get my Isida to M4 in just less than a month, literally.

Planned (for sure): Buy Anaconda kit right before I rank to Third Lieu. Which means that at the beginning of Third Lieu. I have 0k - 1k cry.

Guys, what should I do:

Choices:

1. Buy Firewall at Second Lieutenant and save for Ram

2. Buy Firewall and save for Mosquito (I play xp/bp but not a big proportion, though I am interested.)

 

3. Don't buy Firewall, save for both Mosquito and Ram, buy Mosquito first, then Ram

4. Don't buy Firewall, save for both Mosquito and Ram, buy Ram first, then Mosquito

 

If I buy Ram, I will use the Titan M2 to replace the Dictator M2 when used with Vulcan.

I have decided not to MU my Isida to M4 during Tanker's Day because I rarely play non-format battles, and I've found that Titan's pushing power isn't enough to haul the CP. (For those of you that aren't familiar with what I play: 1. XP/BP 2. Arena/Island/Polygon CP (no MU's) 3. Hornet+Fire 1v1 Arena DM 4. Non-format battles (Hill CTF, Noise CTF, Tribute DM) 5. Save the Gold). 5. DM Tournaments (will see how the updates come along) I am mostly focused on #2 right now, so I think I should get Mammoth M3, Firebird M3, and Lion T-A.

 

Questions:

 

Why Mammoth M3?

When MU's are turned off in Arena CP, Mammoth M3 is probably the best hull you could use. Albeit Titan M3 has better pushing power, the health is what saves the point in the end. I know I won't be displeased with 2 heavy hulls. Both will come in handy at their respectable times. 

 

Why Firebird M3?

When MU's are turned off in Arena CP, nothing is going to save you from a Firebird in a crowd. Besides that, I won't have to use my Nano LGC in H/W+F battles anymore. 

 

Why Lion T-A?

I know I don't have a decent long range module, but I also know how desperate I am for some good protection against Twins without having to equip Emerald LGC (which doesn't qualify as a short/medium range module). 

 

Why not MU first?

 

 

I am a clan member and an XP/BP player. I lack subordination considering I've fully committed to ranking up to Generalissimo twice in 2 years of playing Tanki. MU's won't get me crystals any faster than playing without drugs up against armies of your same kind. Considering I have a buyer's account already means there's nothing I've got to lose when it comes to a sale, and I have decided to get what I know will help me most. I'm not deserting the idea, but I've got to build my foundation. <---opinion

 

 

I don't play non-format battles regularly. MU's don't mean anything in the main battles I play. 

 

If you disagree, look here:

 

 

Here's a list of doubts:

I might regret buying Mammoth M3 after I realize it's not a big improvement over Titan.

I might realize how much less useful I would find Firebird M3 to be in most battles.

Here's the contradiction to my plan:

All I need is a good module and my Isida M4.

 

 

I just find a bigger benefit from getting Mammoth and Firebird before M4 Isida. If M4 Isida is a better deal than Fire and Mammy, even referring to how I would use them, please tell me why and how it is manageable. Thanks for helping.

Does kit's price reduce during sales?

Yeah. 

If Tanki says all paints have a 40% discount one day, every kit's paint will be cheaper which gives the kit a lower price. Tank's fair that way, if you can believe it.

You won't be able to do plans 1-2 if you don't buy crystals. You don't need more than 2 m2 kits. I would suggest you to buy just ram( cheap and op for poly cp ). If you buy ram, you won't be able to buy mosquito before colonel. At that time you can buy man-o-war kit.

 

So, I think the best plan for you is anaconda-ram-man-o-war.
