What to buy? Which is better?

[FC_BayernMunchen 1,941]

Go for Thunder

Have you even tried M2 Thunder? It is good, but with the huge amount of Thunder paints, it sucks.

I have thunder m2 from the med m2 kit :)  So yes i try it , i have it and i like it even they are a lot of paints with thunder protection

[Endurance 543]

I think Thunder M2 is still great despite the fact there are so many protections against it. Unless you go up against a Mammoth/Titan. Although there aren't many around at my rank (of what I see). Players with Thunder paint only require 1-2 more shots to destroy, which isn't too bad.

This is my opinion about Thunder M2.

It's a Generalissimo

i like using dictator and railgun but is viking better than the dictator for the railgun? ( all mo m1-3 are different)

[Raphael2 3,263]

Not really. Though I prefer it.

[In10shnableFoul 38]

So my main combo is going to be Viking Smoky. I play in mostly in medium to large maps and some small ones on occasion. Like Iran, Silence, Kunger, Bobruisk, Arena, Deck-9,etc. So my question is what paint i should go for. I really have no preference on which turrets it protects against as they all can be annoying at times. I was think along the lines of buying Rustle as it is a good protection against Thunder and Freeze and looks cool as well. But that unlocked at Major and I'm a Colonel now and I was wondering if it would start to lose its effectiveness and also if i should just start to save for a really really expensive paint like emerald or savanna.

I spent 5k on my m2 rail. 2 stages damage, and 4 stages rotation. For the sale is it worth spending another 5k only on damage? (+3 stages.) Theres still a chance that m2 hornets wouldnt get one shoted cuz the dmg would be 113~149...

Hello Guys,

 

I read a lot of advices of this thread, and wondered why people ask other what to buy. Especially without defining their playing preferences in a lot of cases. Sometimes I feel my preferences are completely against the best practice higher ranks suggest. E.g. I really like using Shaft on light hulls like Hornet, and a few cases I even went for flags with it.

 

All in all, I do not want to ask advice what to go for, but I am really curious about the playing style and world in the battles of Generals. The answers of the following questions would really help me how to develop my garage in the future.

 

1) What is the most popular short range turret?

2) Are there a lot developing Firebird to M3? Or definitely the Freeze the ruler?

3) I understand Twins is one of the most popular middle range turrets. What about the Thunder and Rico?

4) What about the Shaft? Do you see as many there as I can in the WOx rank range?

5) How frequently do you see Wasp M3? Or only those who could bought the Kit use that?

6) Several CTF I play in are about the drugging, but not all of them. Are there battles where no drugging is so excessive?

7) What are the most popular maps there? I missed to check the unavailable battles on my screen (sorry), but I am curious about your feeling.

8) Do you high ranks play battles just for fun, although you might not earn as many as you would on other maps? I do it time to time on Madness, what I simply adore.

9) What about a Hornet/Hunter vs. Mammoth/Titan with a long range Turret like Shaft? Cannot a Hornet compensate the HP advantage of the big brothers with agility?

 

Still I have a question on my development plan.

I really like Isida and Shaft and fast hulls like Wasp and Hornet. Freeze is very annoying so I am thinking about using that too. With Shaft a stronger hull might be fine, but not optimal e.g. in Madness for sure though. So:

Do you agree, that it is better to develop the Isida first, becuase it is better to collect XP and position (this way crystal) in CTF/TDM, and invest into Freeze later?

 

TIA

I would suggest damage. Each step increases the chance of you one shot destroying Hornet M1s with no Railgun protection.

[Remaine 4,687]

@CaptainBendi - it never hurts to ask for a second opinion. It can only be beneficial; you're the person that decides and getting a third-party opinion gives you an insight into the query.

 

Excluding MisterGeneral (in particular) and other who only base it on what they like which isn't good, pretty much all other frequent answerers ask you what your playstyle is before giving an answer - them getting an insight into how you play makes the answer more orthodox and reliable.

 

I completely understand why you don't want to ask, though. I do see your viewpoint.

[doduobird 315]

Anything I should MU? Rail M2, Shaft M2, Freeze M2 or Hornet M2?
