What to buy? Which is better?


 Share

Recommended Posts

freeze and wasp m2.

Hm ok

If you are not planning on buying alternations, then go for freeze or twins. If you are, firebird and thunder are great choices.

So these alterations, if you buy on at like m2 thunder, will you have it at m3 thunder?

Why does everyone say Freeze is OP?

 

I bought Freeze M2 and it sucks.. even when I circle around the enemy the freezing effect is too slow.

By the point I have him totally immobilized he will already have hit me to low health.

You are also vulnerable to his teammates when you are doing the circle strafing.

 

Druggers can just use Repair Kit and gain full movement again, while I have to recharge.

Freeze is too situational and I struggle to get a positive K/D with it. I am disappointed with this weapon, feels like wasted money.

It only works against noobs that don't turn turret. I do a lot better with Smoky M1, even in defense.

No. Your thunder will reload faster.. but the damage will decrease.

the average damage that you deal if you fire constantly is almost the same (talking about direct damage only).

 

You should think of alternations in a way to make a turret more suitable to your playing style. If you play in open defense with a heavy hull and without a wall infront of you, then a lower damage and faster reload is maybe more usefull.

If you are a camper that likes to be exposed to the enemy as seldom as possible and deal a lot of damage with fewer shots.. while reload does not matter, stick to the normal Thunder version.

 

Thats the idea (well, part of it.. sure a thunder pro can tell you more).

It all depends on your preference. If you prefer Twins over Thunder, get Cosair. If you like Thunder over Twins, get Matrix.

I prefer thunder over twins but I like Corsairs module better

unless you have opponents at lt. Major with m4 isida/thunder and m3 viking then it should be working,freeze is good for defence , only on maps like noise, kunger ( blue ), silence ( red ), polygon, and barda, I've also dealt with people with medic/raiden even though they drugged, maybe your using it on the wrong maps and maybe your doing the effect wrong, when your trying to circle them, ALWAYS start from the back, not even the side, and when your about to make a full circle, go the other way around so then they will have to turn their turret the opposite direction. if they pull a RK, then go in the direction opposite of their turret

That's a bit difficult to say, but Matrix would probably be better. Thunder just got a lot stronger and is slightly more versatile than Twins.

is Freeze m2 worthit if i already have Fire M2?

of course not, fire M2 also has a better alteration than m2 freeze, both are short range, have similar reload time, but have a huge difference in damage, getting freeze after fire m2 is like getting all the M2's , wasting your money by not using them at all, then crying because You wish you sticked with about 4 m2's instead of 8

lol I always loved thunder and hated twins, it's just that corsair's module is good for short range, I`ll just get any one of them on sales

Lol! Well, if that's the case, then don't get corsair. If you are just going for the module, it will be a waste of crystals.

 

Yes or No? or save for Siberian kit?

Siberian; it's so OP due to re-balance. Although, if you mainly like long range maps, then go Piranha kit.

Hows Hornet m2 at xp/bp? The speed of it got buffed to roughly Wasp m1's speed, but would it be better to wait to get Wasp m2 or Hornet m3?

Or I could get dictator/rail for the new dr format, but not sure it'll be

Just to make sure: would any Vulcan protection module that I can get now be a worthwhile investment, especially since I won't be getting a new M3 kit until Lieutenant General?

Bumping this up.  BTW, I now have 146,000 crystals, and I've decided to get the Paladin kit once I reach Lt. General.

I would say yes since Vulcan got a slight damage buff but 25% really isn't that much. keep saving until you can get M3 modules

Freeze M3/M4 does same damage as Firebird now, and brings tanks to a complete standstill.  Repair kit lasts... 2 seconds?  Then freezing takes effect again.

 

There are a lot more freezes now at ranks Generals+ because it dominates - especially on smaller maps.

Finally ranked to marshal,lol,fire M3 here i come :lol: .

What hull i should buy between wasp and hornet m3 ?

It's ridiculous how similar they have made the two hulls.

 

Depends on if you prefer a little bit more speed vs a little bit more acceleration.  And if you like/don't like Hornet's drift...

If you want speed and maneuverability wasp is the best choice.

 

If you want average speed and good armor hornet is the best choice.

I would suggest wasp, because its faster and more fun to use. As for the HP part. After the re-balance, that is now, hornet and wasp have same health.

Use isida and a light hull to get around quick and keep yourself healed on tiny maps like boombox and sandbox. Hornet/ hunter and firebird/ freeze/ isida, smoky/ twins/ hammer on small maps. Try Viking with smoky/ rail/ vulcan/ thunder on medium maps and then titan/ dictator/ or mammoth with either shaft or railgun on large maps

I though it was the other way around? Small maps - heavy hulls since it is not far getting across and on big maps - light hulls since they travel faster point to point.

I use viking and Rail for most cases since I'm becoming decently good ith Railgun and I love how they implemented skidding/drifting into the Viking. Most people hate Viking stole that from Hunter but I don't like Hunter so all is well, plus the M0 even is SO FAST with speed boost! The M1 can make the jump on Monte Carlo with a couple micro upgrades!

No. A 20% weaker thunder wich reloads 20% faster than standart thunder.
