What to buy? Which is better?

[r_I_already_won0 2,339]

should i get firebird or freeze in the sales

Firebird is probably better for attacking, freeze is better for defending. Both are great in the midfield and quite similiar, so it's really just your personal style and opinion.

new idea: what about buying tsunami kit? is it ok? i am suggesting it since i need 4k more to buy it and life with m0 is really hard, especially playing with wo2s with siberian... :(

and probably after tsunami i might save for hero... if i can make it till wo3 with the crys. or its too late for m1s? i am thinking like this because after buying tsunami i might get wasp and dictator (for long range&polygon cp) n it might be too late for m1s at that time

talking about m2 kits, is juggler ok?

Isida and wasp users...dont go in for the kill...if shot at, just fire enough to re-heal whatever damage is done and continue on if the player hsooting at you is within range, then continue on and cap the flag

Re-heal?  Whats that?  I remember you could do something like that before October 20th. ;)

[this-that-name 29]

would the m3 thunder alteration be worth getting? My other option is keep grinding to m4 (34/50 right now)

[PhoenixTheManiac 28]

So, should I get Hornet M2 and buy Railgun M2 later on or save up for a kit? I think this is the best time for Hornet M2 as I can use it with Isida M2. But, Isida sucks and I want to get either M2 XP or a good kit like Northerner or Firebolt.

 

I am stupid.

Why use hornet with isida when you can use wasp?  You're a bigger target with the same amount of hp and less speed to run around healing.

What should I buy? I currently have Thunder M3 with 25/50 and have the options to buy

1) Thunder's alteration

2) Twins M3 and pretty soon after that the alteration

3) Fire M3 and later the alteration

 

My main tank is Wiking M3.

[TheContractKiller_GT 374]

now that vulcan is near pathetic,

shud i buy anaconda kit on alt?

or go with simoom/voltage?

[inthehouse81 34]

Everyone who wants to get a good M2 kit, buy Firewall, I didn't buy it but I do have Firebird M2 and Hunter M2, it's really powerful. And I'm not a buyer in case you are wondering. In the M3 ranks I'm moving to XP/BP because now I can't drug, you can only buy the 1500 supplies kit for real money. So the buyers get an advantage. The 100 supplies kit is 17.5k crystals. Do you think you can earn over 17.5k crystals with only 100 of each drug? No. So you will lose crystals. XP/BP/DR are the only things in Tanki that require your skill, not your credit/debit card. I'm happy to pay a small amount of 5k crystals each month to get away from hard core druggers, and I have M2 Fire so I can play Fire Wasp/Hornet battles as well, as I plan to get Hornet M3 as well as Railgun M3. By the way Fire Wasp/Hornet battles are a great way to earn a ton of crystals.

Get Fighter/Tsunami and for M2s save for Firewall. Edited October 26, 2016 by inthehouse81

My main tank is Wiking M3.

I met fire m4 with alteration today.

My Titan m3 ( 26 mu ) got destroyed within 3 seconds against it.

So I would say Fire M3 with alt.

Yup - Fire M3 (with alt) is a beast.

 

And freeze M3 seems brutal now as well. The jump from M2 to M3 for freeze is immense - has the greatest increase in parameters of all the turrets.

I have freeze M3 but still Fire m3+ with alteration.... God_mode_on

[T.O.R_Vlad 8]

Get Fighter/Tsunami and for M2s save for Firewall.

i think you mean tsunami OR fighter because i cant get them both..

thanks for your answers, looking for other answers too

probably going to buy tsunami if they put it in game

[imic_EN 15]

Hammer can be used at medium range too.  A skilled hammer will know how to stay out of firebird and freeze's range while doing lots of damage.  Hammer doesn't have a long reload.  And the freeze effect is only useful at lower ranks and if you know how to use it. Overall, it depends on your playstyle. Hammer is quite a fun turret to play, freeze is also fun on defense.

Did you try m3 freeze after rebalance? 

its freezes 4 times faster now and at m4 it deals whooping 84 dmg with alteration it can have range of 48 meters

it's more like attack turret now

[BlackWasp777 4,498]

48 meters?

Fire M3 with Alt. Fire is amazing with the Alteration

[fordmustang12345 3,910]

48 Meters is about 7 Vikings away

First of all, the freeze effect is practically useless against fast-turning turrets like twins and firebird.  If you turn your turret and hull, you can keep up with the freeze easily.  m3 turrets and hulls turn so fast...

 

Also, 840 damage is the exact same as firebird.  And twins does 880 per second, which is even more than freeze.

 

And the range is 25 meters at m4, not 48. The alteration doesn't increase the total range, only the max damage range, which is something different.

 

Firebird is better in attacking, freeze is better in defending.
