What to buy? Which is better?

Before answering my questions read the whole thing.

 

 

Earlier I was thinking to go for Tornado Kit and buying THE alteration. But recently while playing an idea hit me. I already have covered Short-Mid-Far range  with Smoky and also have almost mastered it. But the close range gets me every time. Then why not go for a close range instead of a long range kit. I already have a Smoky M2 and a Viking M1.6. Also all supplies almost at 300. I am going to collect weekly containers for a while so supplies are not my concern. However after I got the IDEA I thought I'll do a bit research. After almost 20 minutes of research I came to the conclusion that I will buy Pitbull Kit as Hammer with an alteration is OP right now. But then the cost was too much and I also wanted to get XP as soon as possible. So I ended up deciding to buy Fireworks Kit. Now my problem is whether I should go on with my plan to buy Fireworks and then Rail and both of their alts while also MUing my Viking to M2. Or go with my initial plan of getting Tornado Kit to M3 by Captain (probably Major) ?

I'm assuming that you got a higher ranked account than the one you're posting this on. Is that right?

I had but that was a long time ago and it also had got banned. I guess about 2 years ago. I just played in the test server for testing a few. But it got too laggy and I couldn't test all.

There is nothing bad with ANY of the kits in tanki. If have enough skill in a specific turret and hull then you can excell in any battle with that combo. HBTY buy any kit that suits your playing style. We tell you our opinions on the kits that WE have used, that suits OUR playing styles. You should play according to yours.

Thanks, Chiropractor really suits my playing style though, now that I’ve got it. If you’re wondering how I got it, ask Tidebreaker :)

Correction. Don't ask me, ask @Tidebreaker. No, I did not buy it from the shop.

Buy Chiropractor, but first use an alt to check if you like Hunter/Shaft. Really, it's good. You can one-shot Wasp M1s with an arcade shot on DD, and you can one shot any M1 hull in the game if there are no protections and it's a no supplies battle.

But, I really advise getting it over Mountain. With Shaft, you are essentially immune to repair kits. One shot, and it's all over for the medium hulls and sometimes the heavies. Also, DD is your best friend. One word of advice though with Chiropractor, remember not to stay in one spot. Preferably buy the short-band emitters alt, and use arcade shots quite often in close range. Often you can get more damage in if being attacked by a fire if you use arcade and not try to snipe them - it's hard to see through the napalm. Be a mobile sniper, and move every two to three snipes, or the fires will come to get you. If you need to stay camped in one spot because of other snipers, then make sure you use mines. One of my best moments in tanki was when I was first trying the combo on my alt and was camping in Kunger in the trees. I had laid several mines all around and was fighting off a wave of close range blokes who had caught on to me. I was using arcade shots - one mine, one arcade shot for each wasp with DA, the mines were also killing some. Once I stopped them all, I turned around and I had two enemies (one Isida/Viking another Fire/Hornet) flipped behind me - probably from the mines :)

So, basically, Tornado isn't super good in MM battles unless you're a buyer and can MU it to M3. It is great in XP/BP battles obviously, so if you want to go that route then go for it. Also, Pitbull isn't super good from what I've heard, don't take my word for it though. I've seen many people say that in the forum. Check here for more explanation on what to buy: 

If you don't mind me saying it, you should go for Chiropractor. It's really good, especially with the Short-Range Emitter alt for 20K. It can handle a lot of hulls with arcade shots, since you can one-shot an M1 Wasp (with an arcade shot) if you have DD on.

I will say my answer below.

 

smoky and viking

shaft and titan

Sure, smoky viking, but it depends for shaft. If you want to sit there not moving and just snipe, use titan now and save for Cyclops kit which has Mammoth.

 

Hornet/Viking and Shaft

This is more like it, at least what I prefer. Incidentally, however, I prefer Hunter to both these hulls because of it's smaller profile. It has better handling, and isn't as long. This is just preference, I'd say go for either Viking or Hunter with Shaft.

Hello all, it's been a while since I was here.

 

I main Hunter/Shaft on this account. I have both at M2 10/10. I also have Firebird and Hammer, both at M2 7/10.

 

Naturally, when it comes to sales, I get excited like anyone. I got a bit more pocket money than usual, and I'd be willing to spend it to get my tank up to M4. I really don't want to wait until Marshal to upgrade my equipment as I'm really going to be weighing myself down.

 

To get this upgrade, I have to buy two kits. I've already decided that I will buy the Centaur kit (Hornet/Shaft M3) because I like Hornet and am good at using it paired with Shaft.

 

This is where I need your help. There are so many kits with Hunter to choose from that I can't bring myself to do it. Bear in mind that I already have Firebird 7/10, so I don't need Prometheus, and I don't need Turtle either as I plan to upgrade my Smoky module up to M3 (already at 7/10).

 

So far, I'm leaning towards Redneck because of Ricochet being fun to use and the fact that its protection module helps a lot.

 

Do you agree with my pick? If no, then can you please write down suggestions for another Hunter kit? (I really have no clue what to choose..)

 

Thanks in advance.

Here’s the thing about Striker. I believe it is brokenly overpowered, especially with Uranium, so I would feel ashamed if I were to buy it. Why, you ask? Because everyone uses it to get the Juggernaut, and I hate that. Please understand.

 

I would feel bad just using Striker M3, so I’ll have to pass. Any other suggestions?
