What to buy? Which is better?


 Share

Recommended Posts

3 m1 shots 2 m2 shots im guessing

Even my M1 Hornet can take 3 M1 shots I think...

 

 Which kit is better? I am planning to buy a kit at iron days

Vampire, I've tried it. But Mary paint is crap. So I'd rather go for Striker. 

Depending on your liking, none of the two will be "OP" later on, but at early WO they do their business quite well.

 

  • Striker, if you like to be a draft/midfielder.
  • Vampire, if you like to be attacking, and a highly speedy healer.

 

We have 13d for "Kits"!!, i'll really should wait for "Mosquito kit"

I don't think you will be able to rank till Captain within 13 days for Mosquito kit to unlock for you..  :huh:

 

 

Minotaur (201k) and Firewall (178k) are in rotation now right?

They both usually appear in the same cycle. Yup.

 

@Shad0w365:

Beeing curious: What exectly is Hunters problem with other turrets in your opinion?

 

 

Gratulations on your decision ;)

Use the time to get pro with your main weapon, and when M3 unlocks get a kit and be supreme B)

 

 

M3 players often regret to have spent too much for M2s. Sounds you are about to make the same thing.

Two turrets should be good enough to get you through M2 and into M3.. and save in the meanwhile as much as you can. You will need it.

 


 

As you really love your Wasp/Fire combo and start to get interrested in XP/BP battles

=> I think you should really stay away from buying a Hornet, as you need the crystals at another point

=> Stay with your Wasp as main hull, become a pro driver and get it towards M2 soon

 

main reasons

 

 

  • A wasp M2 will dramatically increase your Wasp/Fire performance, a Hornet won't
  • It makes not very much sense to own/use a Hornet and a Wasp side by side -> If you completely focus on one main Hulls you will become a real pro at one; instead of "just good" with two. And ony Pro-Wasp pilots can make full use of their hulls advantages (the faster it becomes, the more precise you have to use it. Some where around M3 it does not forgive driving mistakes any more).
  • A wasp M2 is allowed to enter XP/BP battles with cheap Forrester paint (while an M2 Hornet needs 20% rail = Fracture paint, which become useless when you rank higher)

 

 

 

So - as far as I know you from battles and forum - an optimal gear for you could be:

mainly - Wasp M2

           - Fire M2 (depends on the upgrades you made to your M1)

secondary - Isida M2

                - Rail M2

 

If you are in line with this proposal, you will also see that there is no room (crystal wise) for a Hornet.

You maybe already have to decide if Isida / or rail, as you've spend a lot on microupgrades for your firebird.

 

Whatever turret you take, your Hull should become M2 very soon. There are two kits that provide an Wasp M2 - and lucky to you, both come with turrets you can make use of:

 

 

  • Mosquito-Kit (, 60k xp to go, 197k cr, Hulls: Wasp M2, Turrets: Railgun M2, Paints: Savanna)
  • Ant-Kit (, 200k xp to go, 227k cr, Hulls: Wasp M2, Turrets: Isida M3, Paints: Irbis)

So either get Mosquito kit and:

- have full and early access to XP/BP

- use Wasp M2 to improove your Fire/Isida combos

- save up for Fire M2

- save up for Isida M3 (! yes, M3!) at rank

 

Or via Ant kit

- save up for Fire M2 (maybe you get it even before the kit)

- purchase additionally a Rail M2 (, 20k xp to go, 96k cr) - but get it after the kit

 

I personally would go for Mosquito. Playing XP/BP makes a better players out of you, as you learn a lot about tactics and patience in those battles.

Get your calculator and make some estimations.. you know how much xp you gain per week and how much crystals you gain per week. But make a plan.. else you'll soon find yourself in a high rank with low gear.

 

 

I am thinking maybe too ahead but how do you rate my plans -

 

  • Atlas kit at
  • Rico M2 by
  • Refridgerator kit at
  • Followed by M3s like Smoky, Viking and Hornet later on

hammer m1. any thoughts on hammer m1 with hunter m1?

Get it, goes with M1 Hunter quite well but it won't serve you well past WO5 unlike Thunder M1 or Twins M1.

It's better if you genuinely enjoy using it, if you just bought it to try it out you won't have much fun with it.

I never tried Vulcan m1 but facing it is hard. The reason I don't see many of them is probably because that 37k price tag is high, and people think Twins and Thunder are more OP than it and that might possibly be a fact. However the impact force and damage are indeed good enough.

My only m2 is thunder and this is usually with hornet m1 in polygon cp. I have nearly ranked to brigadier and when i rank will have around 157k.

 

For the iron days sale I can either

 

buy more m2s such as fire m2 and viking m2.

buy an m3 but can only afford one so isida m3 or thunder m3 (less chance of thunder m3 due to all the emeralds from bulldozer kit)

i could also save a bit more for something like huntsman kit smoky m2 hornet m3 and urban

or i could continue saving for a m3 kit (jackhammer,refrigerator,legend)

 

my only m2 is thunder which was good when i got it but has started to lose its power unless i drug. ive mued my hornet m1 a bit but it is still weak compared to m2 hulls. i play lots of polygon cp.

 

could u pls tell me what to do. by the way is iron days sale only 25%.

Don't get Rico M2 unless you genuinely like it. I have it M2 on my alt, believe me it's powerful; but it's probably because I have it MU'd about half-way. My recommendation: don't buy it unless you plan on MUing it.

It was worth every damn DM mission. :3

But yeah, I think it's the pricetag that turns people away.

Personally; My advice is for you to save up for something like Firebird first, then try going for Vulcan or Twins depending on your preference.

I only got it because I had been using it a lot while saving up to Twins and I realized I had enough, then decided "Screw it" and bought it at full price.

No I like Rico, I have been using it since M0. (Yes, the statistics in my ratings page don't show I play much with it, but before I bought Freeze M2 at Tanker's Day 2015, which was well before the ratings release, I played a lot with it along with Shaft.) However, I might cancel buying M2, because I just realized if I bought only Atlas and Rico M2, I'd have to use my Freeze with Titan. D:

Ricochet m2 is great at my ranks, and higher ranks but I don't recommend to buy it for Lt. Colonels, and higher because they must aim m3s as there are also kits :D ,But ricochet m2 is not a bad choice with the good hands :P

I'm not. I decided Titan is too heavy to bother with. And huntsman isn't that bad, free drugs and slight savings on the turret+hull and free paint... Edited by DragonOfStorms

Hi, another question now that i decided to save for Vulcan M1:

 

There are two options: to MU it all the way (28,000), or to buy the Fujiyama kit for over 50,000.

The kit includes the hunter M1 also. (plus Sakura paint)

I'm not sure about the hunter, since I like Vulcan with Viking. (I like Polygon CP with Vulcan-Viking)

So, should i buy the kit?

Also, currently most of my opponents are m1 firebirds, so I'm not sure if the Sakura paint will help.

No just get Vulc M1 without the kit. And get Vik M1 and Storm, all 3 are relativly early unlocks and not that expensive (well Vulc M1 is kinda expensive)
