What to buy? Which is better?

[doduobird 315]

Hehe, I'm still Hornet ftw! Gold Box fell in a Forest CTF, in the middle, I was gonna get it, but I hit a mine and blew up.  :angry:

Then an Isida M3 Viking M2 got it...

Yes it is and once you get them to m2 it is good against higher ranks as well

Should I get Hornet M2 first, or wait for Tank Man day next year to get Firebird M2?

Im going for both of those too at my rank, and my question for you is how many crystals you have?

[In10shnableFoul 38]

Can someone answer me? On the test server which is better? M2 firebird, smoky, or twins? Taking into account new physics of course.

doduobird: i planed to use railgun or thunder what ever :)

[doduobird 315]

Hunter goes well on both, but if you are a hardcore camper, use hunter. But if you switch sniping spots often, I suggest Hornet. Hunter M1 has a nice boost from M0 to M1, which is pretty good. M3 unlocks really late, though.

doduobird: what are you think about hornet and viking what are they ?

On test server you can try both, and ofcourse see which is better, however I would strongly suggest m2 smoky, because it is very powerful  :P.

As mentioned before, currently, the most OP M2's are: Smoky, Firebird, Twins. (In no particular order) After the new physics, I have heard that Twins will be nerfed - thus making it less OP. M2 Smoky is good, but it unlocks at Colonel, and is the most expensive, whereas Firebird M2 is 20k cheaper, and unlocks at Major, 2 ranks earlier than Smoky M2.

Well, Hornet is my personal favorite, because it's good for me - I'm a sniper, and sometimes I play around with my Thunder and go camping. It suits Thunder, Railgun and Firebird, my 3 favorite weapons. Viking is cool too, although it is relatively slow at M3 compared to other tanks. Viking works well with Thunder and Rail, but maybe not so well with Firebird, but since you said you use Thunder and Railgun, that means Viking is good for you. Another good thing about Hornet is M2 and M3 unlock relatively early. I am about to rank, and I need 22k more for Hornet M2.

If you like camping, by all means use Viking.  :)

[In10shnableFoul 38]

Nevermind im going for smoky.

[In10shnableFoul 38]

Is viking a good hull for smoky? Or is there a better one?

[ChuckNorris2090 102]

^ I like Smoky with Wasp

Thanks for the help and first i ask what hull to use with smoky and second i cant use test server.

Mammoth is a great hull with Smoky, Viking works too, but it's M3 really sucks. Wasp is actually pretty good with it, believe it or not!

I used to use it with both Mammoth and Wasp, at M1, it really pwns the noobs. But now I'm playing against really high ranked people, it's just not that good. I suggest you get a different combo, then work to get Smoky M2, because Smoky M1 just really sucks when fighting against high ranked people. At M2, it can really put up a good fight though. It seems that you're still quite a while from getting Smoky M2, so I would recommend Isida to get xp.

[ChuckNorris2090 102]

^ Yes, against lower ranks, Smoky M1 and Wasp M1 is awesome!

Yea i use a different combo now but im going to get m2 asap. Will titan be good with it after new physics?

[doduobird 315]

Haha, lucky for you! You get to pwn noobs. At least I can still pwn the Warrant Officers with my Thunder M1!

Check out my gold box: http://prntscr.com/27g166

[ChuckNorris2090 102]

^ Yes, lucky I got the Wasp/Smoky combo m1. I'm longing to get a Thunder upgraded... anyways, nice gold box.  :D (This is assuming you didn't get shot by a Shaft a millisecond after that screenshot :P)

I'd recommend Mammoth. I still think Titan is good, but if Mammoth is getting nerfed, it's only fair that Tanki will nerf Titan. At M3, Titan trades 44 health for only 0.6 speed. The extra 0.6 isn't really gonna help you get out of the enemy base, especially since Titan is quite large. Mammoth, has 44 extra health, and that extra health can help it survive maybe an extra 5 seconds - long enough for an isida to come over, or for your health pack to finish reloading.

Nah, it was a 5 person DM in Silence, I was the only one waiting on that ramp, all the other people were over by the short ramp xD

There were no shafts in the battle. 3 railguns, 1 firebird and me!

[ChuckNorris2090 102]

^ Well, you lucky smart Hornet!  :lol:

Hehe  :)

[doduobird 315]

I'm just wondering if I should get Hornet M2. It's quite cheap compared to other M2s, so I'll probably get Firebird M2 first, then see what happens. I'll be gone on vacation over summer break, and when I come back I will get my Welcome Back Gift, and then I will be able to buy Hornet M2. Hopefully  ^_^
