What to buy? Which is better?


 Share

Recommended Posts

Sorry, but I think that has changed now.

Somebody posted a screenshot where he had to pay full price for Thunder-Hornet m3 kit, when he had fully MUd his thunder hornet m2.

I can't find that topic though.

tht post is somewhere in this thread,i think.

The guy had to pay full price for m3 hornet thunder kit,even though he has 10/10 M2 Thunder

So yeah,even if u mu an M2 10/10,u wud have to pay full price for an M3 kit containing that M2

 

Its just like if,you have viking M3 and still would have to pay full price for paladin.

Hope this makes it clear :)

Fire. Even if opponent has 25% protection, you easily kill him in one recharge. Thunder is also good if enemy doesn't has protection. Don't ever even make a mistake of buying Striker.

 

Firebird

As stated above, it can still roast enemies that have decent protection against it. It is also easy to use and fits well in a Polygon CP, especially if you can camp inside the 'hole'. 

Soo tht settles it.Goin to buy fire in tanki's birthday sale.hopefully ill be able to make 100k by then so i can afford the M2 alt aswell

I've posted this in my clan page but I still need your advice since I really can't decide...

Go for Atlas and Mosquito, Atlas is good kit and I wouldn't suggest you to get kit with twins, twins is not so good anymore with its self-damage. And mosquito you can get for BP games, Mosquito is fun in some normal games also not only BP.

On my alt/main (I play on it the most) K_R_1_M_1_N_4_L (<- Click to go to ratings page. I hyperlinked it and made an artificial rank icon.), I have 22k currently. As of now, my plan is to wait for the June sales and then buy M1 Viking and M1 Isida. I also want to do parkour on the side, so I bought Thunder and Wasp M0. I most likely won't upgrade my Wasp at all to optimize it for parkour. The Thunder I plan to buy M1 sometime after M1 Isida and Viking, but I'm also thinking of not buying anything at this sale, and saving for Matrix. I currently am leaning toward the first plan of buying Isida-Viking at the sale.

Elaborating on the current plan.

  • Buy Isida and Viking M1 at the June Birthday sales.
  • Rank up slowly, doing only one mission per day, unless I have a Premium mission.
  • At the Halloween sales, buy Isida M2.
  • Rank up slowly, doing only one mission per day, unless I have a Premium mission.
  • At roughly Captain rank, buy Annihilator, completing my Isida-Viking M2 combo.
  • Rank up to Lieutenant General, and also MU my M0 Wasp to M1 in the meantime (only about 6-7k if I do it during different sales). The point of MUing it is to have the M1's speed but M0's weight in parkour.
  • At Lieutenant General, buy Medic kit. 
  • Using my new kit until General rank, buy Man-O-War kit.
  • M4 Isida.
  • M4 Thunder.
  • M4 Viking.
  • Buy rest of M3s.

Just sayin that Man O war is not a good kit. I'm one of the ppl who bought it. Plus that your plan might not work as intended cuz u need millions of crystals for it. You need to non life a lot to get those crystals

Man-O-War consists of Thunder and Hornet and this combo doesn't seem to be the best...I'd suggest you to get this kit only if you want to pair Thunder with your Viking. Then you may get Rail and start playing XP/BP since you'll get Hornet anyway from a kit... Or you can go for any other turret that you like.

At Lieutenant General, buy Medic kit. 

Using my new kit until General rank, buy Man-O-War kit.

 

Id buy raiden and healer kits over medic and man-o-war, same equipment but you get better combos which makes it easier to save for the other kit whichever one you buy first (better equipment = more crystals)

Its a relatively cheap kit with a great module - fire isida and hammer are very popular and some of the strongest turrets - and a great turret (thunder is love  ^_^  ). Only downside is hornet is quite weak, although some people enjoy the speed. Thunder-Hornet isnt a great combo without good thunder protection on yourself though, very easily to SD. I see your point, there are definetely better kits available for the price of Man-O-War.

I don't actually plan to use the Hornet, just the Thunder. Hornet just is a bonus, because by getting Thunder early, I have an edge over those who still have M2s. And let me calculate the crystals needed real quick.

 

Isida M1 (18 600) + Viking M2 (19 300) = 37 900.

37900 * 50% (B-DAY sales) = 18 950.

 

Isida M2 (68 000) * 70% (Halloween sales) = 47 600.

 

Annihilator kit = 253 220.

 

MU M0 Wasp = 6 500.

 

Medic kit = 332 910.

 

Man-O-War kit = 367 225.

 

Total = 1 026 405.

 

Then again, if I buy Raiden and Healer...

 

1 026 405 - (332 910 + 367 225) = 326 270

 

326 270 + Raiden (363 510) = 689 780

 

689 780 + Healer (333 195) = 1 022 975.

 

I only end up saving roughly 4k. Perhaps, but remember that my main combo is Isida Viking...

First of all, you just assumed the discounts. If birthday sales are not 50%, your whole plan will fail. Planning is good but don't depend on sales being a certain %

 

Anyway, in my point of view, if u wanna buy thunder then buy raiden immediately instead of wasting crystals on man o' war and save 300k

Man O war is a complete loss of crystals even its paint (Mars) is ugly. I say he should buy viking or titan kit. 

I agree with you that thunder is OP but it isn't usefull in close range maps, and you will be forced to stop playing in them just like my case  <_<

It won't fail - It'll be a minor roadblock... even if it's only 40%, which I doubt - B-DAY is the biggest annual sale - I'll have enough. I have 23k, and I should have at least 30k by then.

Well, it's still a long way off. Maybe when I get there, I won't even buy those two kits... It'll probably take at least half a year.

Should I buy Annihilator, Minotaur(with Alt) or Northerner?

 

Please reply with your opinion as to why X kit is better. Thanks.

Minotaur or Northerner.Annihilator is overpriced

Northerner is very versatile,and smoky m2 is really good.

Overall,northerner is the better buy

In my experience, tornado kit may be a expensive yet very fun and great/strong kit to use.

It has its downfalls, but it enables XP/BP gameplay on all maps, and it will generate your K/D better.

What m3 kit would be better for alt acc it has a rank of colonel & has 45k crys.

Well, M3 Product kits unlock at the rank of Lieutenant General and would cost somewhere around 300k-400k crystals.

 

I would suggest that you should get the kit that goes with your style of play.

 

This could either be if you're an offensive player (kits with Light or Medium hulls such as Wasp, Hornet, Viking or Hunter + Short or Mid ranged turrets such as Firebird, Freeze, Ricochet, Twins, Hammer or Thunder) or if you're a defensive player (kits with Heavy hulls equipped with any turret that goes with what you like).

 

Considering that you're 3 ranks behind before you can unlock the M3 kits, I suggest that you earn a ton of crystals on your way there.  ^_^

I am thinking that I an afford a m3 kit at either at the end of Lt general or general.I won't buy raiden as most high rankers has 35+ Twns thunder fire rail protection.I am thinking to try paladin kit in the test server.I  may buy m2 rail in tanki;s B'day so that I can earn good XP & crys & catch golds in XP/BP format.

It's better to save up, yeah. Don't forget that you also earn bonus crystals as you reach a new rank.

 

XP/BP battles is a way to go to earn a few more crystals here and there, good choice. 

 

Paladin's also a decent choice, especially it would save you a lot considering its 70% discount, I respect that. Also, don't forget that whoever you battle with in test server has full M3 equipment + a chunk of MUs to their equipment so if you're doing great with the Paladin kit in the test server, no doubt you'll do better in normal servers. ;)

Should I:

 

Buy m2 rail and m2 fire

 

Buy m2 rail and m2 hammer

 

Buy m2 rail and a protection module m2

 

Buy a turret + hull

I have pretty decent k/d & score in the test server with Rail wasp /hornet.I fail to see a decent m3 kits except for Paladin.I play against High rankers & most have thunder fire rail twins & isida after the recent update.Very few tankers use snokey protection & either are LGC or M2.I love thunder but I need to MU it coz it will OP by other hardcore MUers  I have decided to buy paladin at General rank & play xp/bp after buying rail.
