What to buy? Which is better?


 Share

Recommended Posts

I was wondering what to save up to for the June B-day sale. I have literally zero crystals from the recent sales, so what should I go for. I play every other night or so for two hours. Should I get m1 hammer, m1 twins, or be more ambitious and get m2 freeze or m2 isida. I will also most likely rank before sale as well. So that will unlock things like m2 Vulcan and other things I can't currently recall. What is your opinion. Check out my profile for what I have for equipment. Maybe a new paint?

Do you like XP/BP? If so, go for Hornet M2 (you should rank by then). For a paint, all you really need at your rank is Storm - Fire M1/M2s are quite common and OP. Don't get any M1 gear.

Thanks a lot! I was just thinking that I should get m2 hornet. I love xp/bp and it would be a great addition to my garage. I don't think I'll get storm because it's kinda ugly IMO. Maybe swash instead. I think I'll still get m1 twins at one point because it is, I think the most OP m1.

Swash is useless, trust me... Costs a lot for not a lot of protections in return

Now I want to ask a few opinions on the following M2 kits:-

 

1.Minotaur 1

2.Firewall 2

3.Northerner 5

4.Atlas 4

5.Stinger 3

6.Mosquito 6

 

Give them ranks from 1 to 6.

 

(These r one of the the m2 kits I plan to buy on my this account but I m confused,so plz give opinions)

Any other suggestions?

They're both cheap but Storm is half the price of Viking. If (hypothetically) there was a good sale right now and you could only afford either Viking M1 or Storm, I would go for Viking M1

 

So go for Viking M1, then Storm

I've got a while before Viking unlocks, but I've been trying it with Firebird.

It's alright, but I can't quite understand what role I'm supposed to play exactly. It works well when I attack, but only if I have a few team members. It also kind of depends on the team to not be noobs and get in the way, because then I can only damage people with the very tip of the flame.

Anywho, should I get Hammer M1 or wait for M2? I saw it in a kit with Dictator M1.

That's Anvil, I think. Hammer M1 is nothing spectacular. I have it on one of my alts.. It's only good for low ranked Warrant battles.

 

Anyways, the Fire/Viking/Storm M1 combo I talk about is good for Poly CP. Poly CP is one of the best ways to earn crystals. You'll get more crystals from CP than from CTF.

Huh... I'd think with the high output and crowd control it'd be better for TDM.

I've tried Polygon but it's a bit... Chaotic? I guess?

There's a lot going on at once, and my FIrebird doesn't seem to do much against anyone.

1) yes Poly CP is probably the most chaotic battle map and mode in all of Tanki . I personally don't like it but its popular for some strange reason

 

2) that would be because Poly CP is always full of druggers . Try MUing your Firebird about 15/20 steps if you do that and manage to get a Double Damage you will OWN Poly CP cause it will be very OP . I have M1 fire 11/50 and its still pretty effective at my rank

Big Question!!!!!!

I planned on getting Prometheus, but that requires me to rank to Marshal. The June sale will have me at General hopefully by then, which means that only Cardinal would be available. If I bought Cardinal instead, I could buy it for 50% off (or whatever discount) off Twins M3 in the kit. But if I get Prometheus, I would have to buy it for its original price. Also, getting Prometheus would give me Zeus, Hunter M3, and Firebird M3. Though there is a problem: I would have two short range M3 turrets, Firebird and Isida, and my "deteriorating-by-the-rank" Thunder M3.5. If I get Cardinal, I could also get M3 Viking. That way I have an M3 heavy hull, an M3 medium hull, an OK long range turret, a short range turret, and a medium range turret. How about it? Should I stick with the MLMCORE combo plan or the versatile garage plan?

Wouldn't there be plenty of time to buy both? Buy the Cardinal kit at 50% on the day that has the paint sale (the paint is the most expensive). Then save with your leftover crystals until your reach Marshal rank and buy Prometheus kit. You should have enough time to save for Prometheus.

OK so I have decided that I would go for Firewall if I could collect anough crystals till second lieutenant.... Otherwise I'll go for Minotaur

 

Becoz I have encountered both minotaur and firewall and my experience is:-

Hulls:- both the hulls were almost same for me as I use fighter kit..they took almost same time to get destroyed.

Guns:- here I found fire a bit better...bcoz of the crazy afterburn and I also noticed that twins m1&m2 are not much different....only a few difference... I found fire more impressive due to the huge afterburn effect.

But my decisions can still change if I find smoky m2 good.... Not encountered yet

Hey, I've earned 48 000 crystals and can't decide what should I buy/update :)

 

I was going to buy a kit but now I see they are getting more and more expensive and I'm unable to afford that.

 

While Sergeant can buy a kit (M1 Smoky+ M1 Titan +Chaninmail paint) for only 14 000 crystals !!!

 

Currently,I'm using M1 titan and M1 smoky with Mary paint,this is my favorite combination.

 

I can buy isida m2 or freeze m2 if I keep earning crystals for a while but I don't know if I like it.

 

So considering that my favorite combination is Titan&Smoky ,should I upgrade my current weapon/hull or wait for a sale and buy a kit or buy isida/freeze ?

 

 

get Osaka kit or stinger kit then buy the smoky m2+Titan m2 kit(forgot the name)

u mean atlas kit. it costs 230k

Smoky m2 is one of the best m2's out there.But it unlocks really late,so theres no point buying it.Lots of difference betwwen m1 and m2 smoky

Its good if u buy it in a kit,like atlas-titan,smoky,and loam ; or northerner-viking,smoky,winter

 

But u said u wanted to buy firewall,which is another op m2 kit,provided u buy it at ,when its the most OP.U will be able to get the required amount by then[dont remember how much]

 

u mean atlas kit. it costs 230k

Actually atlas is 186k

Storm is a great paint. Fully MU for about another 27k and you have a 30% Firebird prot. You can't do better for that low a price. You also get a bit of Hammer protection thrown in which believe me helps.

Should I MU Storm? 

Totally worth it as austin said:

Some strange reason? Not that strange at all.

 

1-Large battle funds.

2-Quick XP

3-Frequent and highly accessible gold boxes

 

:ph34r: I can't imagine why anyone would want this :ph34r:
