Yes of course. Here are some useful tips to get to legend. Next time, maybe ask in the FAQ topic :)

Yes. But first, just make sure you keep yourself in good health. You don't know how long it will take.

Yes, it is possible. It simply requires more time.

My estimate would be around 1-2 years.

Obviously it's possible. It will take longer and be less... comfortable, but it's 100% possible and many people have done it.

It will actually go much faster the way I'm doing it, but I'm the only one who knows the one true way of getting to legend without buying. I still have beginners pass........for an hour maybe xD

 

But the fast I'm 3rd lt still with it shows I have too much time on my hands, and I also got Stinger, and have 44k cry right now. I'm going to get M2 Rail when I can and continue to MU my Stinger.

Yes, but there is absolutely no incentive to rank up to legend.

 

At Marshal, all equipment unlocks, you can have a full m3 garage, and still play against m2's without thinking about changing turrets or modules in battles.

 

It might be better to reduce play time on Marshal+ account, and play on another account. Then you can have a great crystal / experience ratio and do well in battles.

Total money I spent on tanki = 0$

If you stick to pro battles you'll gain experience and crystals much faster, also it's where most non buyers play

If you were to buy anything I recommend monthly+ premiums, you'd make more using it than buying crystals or bundles (provided you play daily)

This is the part where I 100% agree. Having that pro pass and playing pro battles will give you more than enough. I mean only from XP/BP, you get more than enough for them, let alone other battles.

Totally!

 

I'm looking to get Paladin and I currently have 80k crystals which will soon be used to get M2 Railgun. From there, I'll make at least 250,000 crystals from sources other than battle funds. Those being 110,000 from rank ups, then 48,000 from the last few weeks of the 3x weekly chain rewards, then I assumed I'd get a low income of crystals from missions from now, until Lt General, when M3 kits unlock. I assumed only 50,000, then I still have the standard weekly chain rewards and assuming by some chance they don't increase with my rank ups, I'll get 2,500 crystals from those. Finally, it'll take me at least 5 months to get to that rank, which is 20 weeks.

 

So, let's do some maths!

 

         110,000 (rank ups)

         48,000 (3x weekly chain rewards (6 weeks including this one))

         40,000 (Normal weekly chain rewards (14 weeks)

         50,000 (Assumed to be low income of crystal mission rewards)

Total: 248,000 crystals

 

Paladin costs roughly 360,000 crystals, so from the time I get M2 Rail, till Lt General (787,000 exp) I will only need to make 112,000 crystals, which 459,000 experience to do so, until I reach that rank! Plus, I'm aiming to get both Smoky alterations, which is another 150,000 crystals, so I'll need to make 262,000 crystals. And assuming I keep making a 2 crystals to ever 3 experience ratio, I'll make 306,015 crystals.

 

         306,015 (Battle-earned crystals)

         248,000 (Rank up, mission and weekly chain reward-made crystals)

Total: 554,015 crystals

 

Paladin with both alts costs *drum roll* 510,000 crystals!! :D

 

From there, it's finishing the last two MU on my Hornet, and going to get Rail M3. This means I have an xp/bp tank and a free format tank, and an OP one at that, to get me to Legend!

This is like saying "is it possible to swim the atlantic ocean" ?

Well yes it is theoretically possible but why would you ?

From what i have experienced playing this game i don't honestly think it would be worth time trying to reach legend rank without paying

At these ranks playing is very intense and having lesser equipment at this level makes you a sitting duck for other players

But if your one to give it a try then all i can say is the very best of luck too you

I started playing at the end of 2013 and played with isida until i ranked to brigadier, I got the xp kit and played with it and i ranked to gissimo with it somewhere between December 2014 or January 2015.

I never spent real money.

To be honest, Paladin is a really OP kit...and is the second cheapest M3 kit. From whatever point in the mid-ranks a player gets their M2s, is more than enough time to afford the most expensive kit. Take me for example. I'm about to dump 96k into getting a Rail M2, thus leaving me broke at the start of Captain, since I need to rank up to get the cry i need. From here, to Lt General, I'll make exactly 100,000 crystals in just rank up rewards. Paladin costs roughly 360,000 crystals, so, form now until Lt General, if a player can't make 260,000 crystals, I don't know what they're doing with their earnings.

 

Getting M3s is actually really easy. Well, affording them is easy, but GETTING to them is hard. But, once obtained, a player should have no problem getting things done. Heck, they have until Field Marshal, another roughly 400k exp to go, to get another M3 kit, before they're gone forever. Or, they can use those earnings to MU to M4.

 

Everything in this game (except paints) is easily affordable. It takes a lot of patience to get them, though. That's what most people struggle with in Tanki. From WO5 - Marshal is a LONG journey with M2s and when you hit Colonel, M3s will dominate the field and the mult M0s will mostly be gone. That journey alone can take several months to get through. It's why people buy, or why they quit if they can't.

 

The only reason I'm constantly going on about how Tanki is anything but pay-2-play, is because I've done plenty of research on the game, something many players don't do, so I try to be the nice guy to reach out to those people, so they know what to expect. I mean, I got Stinger kit with 20k crystals left to spend at WO5, I got the Hornet to 8/10 and now I'm about to get an M2 Railgun.

 

I haven't spent a penny on this game, either. Also, I'm not trying to brag, just trying to reach out and tell people that they CAN do this without having to pay, because there ARE those who cant.
