or a super-effective Isida, can be.

Not optimal use in my opinion. 

If for healing - waste of a super resource.  And the reward for doing so is underwhelming.

For attacking - will be put into use even less than a ranged viking.  Maneuvering into position takes even more time with more danger.

Absolutely incorrect, viking has the most effective OD.. do you know why it looks crap to you? It's people like you who waste such a useful OD just for that pesky little one kill you are so thirsty for, then by the time you are done with that player your OD runs out or you get sniped

 

Viking OD has no skill involved, might as well put a brick on your spacebar. It's meant to be used strategically when there are lots of tanks grouped together or against practically immobile targets with heavy hulls, lighter hulls will be gone before you even have a chance to shoot the first projectile

 

Players use it wrong, I am a hunter user and I'd say 70% of the time I can easily evade a viking OD because people don't time it right... they either activate it way too far away or just too close that I can simply stun them. The other 30% however is due to teammates blocking me or me being a noob and running into objects

 

Here's a tip: try not to use OD just for the sake of using it... use when people are grouped together while capturing a point, flag or use it on juggernaut... very effective, or you can use it to lighten up enemy defenses in Assault.. and the best out of all the above, use it during a gold box drop... if you know you can't get to the gold box just wait till enemy is trampling on each other for it.. pop your OD and go Boom boom

 

I wish I bought viking sooner but for now I just invested too much in hunter, my viking is practically useless

Why there always got to be some besserwisser on here?

Hornet od turns off double armor and protection modules. It is by far the best. That is why all the buyers are using it.

IDK to discuss it anymore. I'm emailing tanki and having my account closed.

Yep.  Hornet is proper hull for all low skill kids. There are many out there.

Same here! Like sitting in a dome, shooting non-stop, driving in and pressing shift, pressing shift to heal and kill anything, getting supplies, and stunning people isn't!

In fact, to add onto your point @yellowghetto, you can have a completely winning strategy that is super low skill these days!! All you do is equip your 20/20 Defender drone, your maxed out hornet, 50% protections, and max Firebird with incendiary mix, and drive around spamming the 3 then 2 on your keyboard and proceeding to kill everyone in front of you. Of course, make sure to pick a mode like CP or Siege. Then you can simply press shift and drive over and annihilate everyone by the point, even when they are under a Titan dome!!

This strategy would probably work for anyone who has played for more than 10 hours. It'll even net you upwards of 350 battle points each match, and hundreds of crystals!!

Isn't it GREAT to see what Tanki's gameplay has come to?!

HELP. I can't stop laughing.....

[yellowghetto 3,206]

Maybe Hornet needs a nerf like I suggested a while back. But what about nerfing "Augments" what about that? Also, in the HTML5 version, the Special Supermission, I died of laughter when I saw the mission's name was "HELL" and yes in all caps. 

PS: I put Augments in quotation marks because it is literally a term to replace Alterations. Some Augments are flat out upgrades.

Augment: make (something) greater by adding to it; increase.

So yes they are now upgrades, enhance the change of name from "Alteration".

Learn more about augment: [ Review ] Augments Vs. Drones

[Russty 368]

Augments for hulls should keep the name Hull Augments because they add something to the tank and make the hull greater. Augments for turrets should be called Alterations again as they're supposed to alter how a turret works. Some turret augments alter the turret however some upgrade it and make the turret overpowered and that should be fixed. Obviously, drones make the issue worse.

( i am not sure how it affects the acceleration but after reading the wiki it seems that hulls are a bit slower with heavyweight).

I've seen a Wasp push a Titan away from guarding a cap-point in Rugby .... so there does not seem to be much of a down-side to the heavyweight augment.

Decreased acceleration is a downside, albeit very little. Still something compared to the immunities.

Sure - but it seems to be insignificant, and it's top speed is not affected.

They've ruined the game with immunities.

Angel of paradise is currently using this combo but in more than cp or siege. Skills or no skills is debatable, just superior equipment for sure. 20 + kills each match. Success even in big maps like massacre. You would think your team would be smart enough to pick him off before he gets to your base.

Yes I agree about all of this. The reason I picked "no skill" in my approach is mainly because Firebird is considered (by the devs themselves in the little charts in the TO mobile garage) to be a low skill turret, or at least lowest relative to others. That is why I picked this combo. Also, it is one that I have used for these exact purposes before. I would argue it definitely is plug and play, there isn't much skill to it.

 

Now that I think about it, imagine a buyer gets the hornet fire kit for tankoins at whatever rank it becomes available, buys defender, and maxes everything, plus whatever prots they can get (and incendiary mix). This would probably net 30+ kills per game on average, far past what any of us probably consider possible (maybe 40)...

Have you guys seen the new homepage beta? Looks pretty sick. Now that they've done that, PLEASE MOVE ON to something like the Tesla turret, reworking supplies, developing TO Mobile iOS or just "finish HTML5" like they said in the V-LOG. AND DROP developing skins. NO ONE CARES

Riddler does.

[KamiGT 143]

I hope they will stop with the stupid skins already. They come in absolute last on my list of interests... I like the standard look on m3's more than most of them anyway. Select few I like being fire xt, thunder xt, hornet xt, viking xt, rail xt (don't even use rail), and isida xt. Basically all the old skins that were around for so long before they screwed alot of stuff up...

As long as people buy them i don’t think they’ll stop.

I mean we can rarely get a skin .the chances are like 1 in 1000 .That's why i love COD . You can get legendary skins by completing a few missions per month or 2 weeks .Rare ,uncommon and epic skins are acquired in an even easier way

Their 3 main priorities should be: Ares, HTML5 and the IOS version of the game.

[The-Operator219 88]

On a whim I decided to try Hornet-Rail on my alt that has everything, and my god...

Who knew what's classified as a "light hull" has so few weaknesses? It needs something, maybe a decrease in turning speed or turret rotation, because I should not be able to spin around 180 degrees in two seconds and kill a flanking medium tank in one hit. That's ridiculous, even in the context that I was fully souped up on my OD and some DD.
