What to buy? Which is better?

[Skills.n.Girls 767]

I'm thinking of getting Rico m3 and its alteration and or rico + Viking on new year sale ,I'm thinking of Rico + alteration but don't know how it is since I just tested it on test server , is it worth getting Rico + alteration or I should only consider rico + Viking ?

Thx

Rico M3 and alteration + Dictator M3 so good combo.

[r_I_already_won0 2,339]

Dictator and Twins with Alteration is very good for any map.

[fordmustang12345 3,910]

What is better M2 Isida, Thunder, Freeze, Twins, Firebird, or anything else. Remember you also have to name a M2 hull !!!

your basically asking what the best M2s are....... Smoky M2 , Firebird M2 (with Alteration), Twins M2 ,Shaft M2 ,Freeze M2 , Hunter M2 , Wasp M2 ,Vking M2 ,Titan M2 ,

[JustWatchMe 11]

juggler, aborigine or boar?

juggler, aborigine or boar?

Juggler and Aborigine are better all-round combinations and perform better on larger maps. Juggler and Boar are better on small maps.  I would say Juggler.

Lol thx BlackWasp777  :D

What if i'm using Hornet m2??

[BlackWasp777 4,498]

those turrets work on a Hornet M2 very well.

When you later grow into the M3 ranks you should consider a Medium hull.

However, this encourages people to play on the boring maps like Noise and Polygon.  If you want to truly enjoy Tanki, you must get experience in maps like Dusseldorf, Solikamsk, Lost Temple, etc. And for those maps a light hull is not obselete at the Legend ranks.

[BlackWasp777 4,498]

I actually never play Dusseldort and Lost Temple, and I, hmm strongly dislike (!"§%!"§$!!!!!!) Solimansk .

 

But the large maps that I do like are Kungur, Tribute, Serpuchov (sometimes Skylark) / medium maps: Barda, Bridges, Red Alert.

 

The funny thing is, while in medium ranks a lot of Light Hulls have been around there, in higher ranks the Medium Hulls clearly dominate the battle field on the larger maps. Since the update it became even worse.

The advantage of light hulls is clearly mobility and agility. The high ranks have not much issues in hitting 8/10 shots on a wasp in full speed or in dodging curves all across the battlefield. And Speed and Agility have both been cut down since 1,5 years now.

So if they don't miss a lot, you don't live that long. In attack you survive either on drugs, with heavy protection modules or both. Or you simply.. well.. die most of the time. Concealment helps, but those Gismos and Legend have a pretty good battlefield awareness.

 

You can however succeed in attack, if some mediums go infront of you or give them heavy troubles from one side, while you slip in at the other end, hoping that noone spawns near to you. You can also play mobile defense & attack support sniper (which I like to do a lot).

Play a full Dusseldorf battle, 20 v 20.  In xp/bp mode it would be SOOOOO fun :)  The reason everyone has medium hulls is because they are just plain better for the crystal-grind maps like Noise and Polygon.

.......But the large maps that I do like are Tribute......

 

 

Tribute is not a large map...... its a Medium map. Not much bigger than Polygon......

[r_I_already_won0 2,339]

But it is very open.

[railguniz4noobz 2,394]

But it is very open.

Polygon has virtually no cover and everyone just plays it for CP, this doesnt make it a large map.

[ironsi 9]

really bruh

[fordmustang12345 3,910]

really bruh

seriously. Go sit up on top of the huge ramp in polygon and have someone sit over on the other side . Then go sit on the bridge in Tribute and have someone sit where the red flag is in Tribute..... pretty much the same distance

[BlackWasp777 4,498]

Areas comparism below.

But whatever: the original point was, that even on large maps (take Kungur) you see more [heavy+mediums] then [light] hulls in the highest ranks.

 

ps: IMHO the reason why so many players play poly CP, is that there is only one CP (all tanks get there), the CP is uncovered in the center while all tanks spawn around it (you can take it under fire within a few seconds), and the number of players that can be put into it is very large (surival time for tanks = low, therefore number of kills per battle = high. => Fund)

 

 

 

Areas (aproximately):

Boombox: 75%

Polygon: 100% (if you fit the brown area on the right into the left-out area on the left...)

Tribute: 200%

Kungur: 450%

 

btw: Parma is about as wide as Tribute

 

pls dont mind if the scaling is not 100% the same.. it's kind of hard to zoom them to the same prop size.

It still does wonders on supplies. I don't know about stock m3. My one is heavily MU'd. My M4 smoky feels like M3 due to the reload and decrease in critical dmg after update. Still it has enough power to rock the battlefield I'd say.

Two kits I want really badly. I can get Voltage with M2 Dictator and M2 Railgun, I just need 27k more crystals and to wait for it to show up in the garage, or should I wait to get Northerner with M2 Viking and M2 Smoky. I'm good with Rail and Dic, but my best combo is Viking/Smoky, but to use M1s till the Captain Rank...I have only HALF the needed xp

 

Both are full M2 kits. I really WANT Northerner, but I NEED to get M2s. This is basically a want vs. need thing.

 

I'm pretty good with Railgun (still working on accuracy though) and I use that and Dictator on a lower account, but haven't used them together. I'm good with Dictator...even though it won't drift like Viking, the M2 is 0.01 slower so I'm not really missing out on speed. Vs my Viking M1 I will get more hp, but vs. M2 Viking I get less hp with M2 Dictator.

 

I see lots of pros and cons of getting Voltage...but I don't want to have to wait to double my xp to get Northerner which I'd love to get.

 

What do you guys think I should do? Take my chances with Voltage or wait and be endlessly wrecked to get Northerner?

Voltage.  Rail is awesome and dcit is used for golds + that railm2 at ur rank is awesome. And trust me, I am saving for tornado or voltage in my alt acc

Get Voltage. You would need to use DA or DD to kill me if you use Tornado. Hornet slides WAY too much, also. M2 Dictator is as fast as my M1 Viking and my Viking is plenty fast.
