Upgrade Mk1-9 to Mk2

[GoliathSpectrum 1]

Why it costs so much?

Blame Alternativa for saying that the old upgrade system was confusing for new player...

 There it says 790 crystals

That's not the price for the last step, that's the price for mk2 (because you have surpassed the correspondent rank).

Even if you could upgrade it to mk1-10 (like it was before the update), you wouldn't get the m2 modification for free, you would still need to buy it for 4000 crystals.

@Poppy I've micro-upgraded tesla turret to Mk1-10 and bought Mk2 for 0 crystals

[GoliathSpectrum 1]

@Poppy So you mean micro-upgrades are a waste?

If you can reach mk1-10 before reaching the rank for mk2, you get mk2 for free. The same thing for other mk's.

not really, if u need a lot of xp before u can get it to a new mk level, then micro upgrades are very nice for getting higher gs and more damage or protection

Because we don't have Sales right now.

When the next 50% sales come, the price will be only 2000 Crystals!

At least there is only one button.

Maybe the new Interface will have a better upgrade system.

When they said that, it felt like they were insulting our ability to learn quickly and adapt quickly.

Bruh...

 

Before the stupid merging of the upgrade buttons, it would only cost 790 crystals to upgrade the last Micro-Upgrade step for Dictator Mk1

 

Even that 2000 crystals you're so excited about is still a heavy rip-off.

[frezeandvik 71]

Tanki have to return the old update that make you able to upgrade from M0 to M3 directly if your rank is allowing for that. So as you Lieutenant Colonel, you will upgrade your Dictator directly to Mk5 with the cost of Mk5 only.

This is the logical thing to do along with their merging two upgrade buttons. If they really did it in sake of lessen the confusion and making the gameplay better.

True 

But what is Alternativa

[The_Resistance 135]

They need to do sale.

Like ok, mrege buttons, but Mk2-9 will cost pr(mk3)-pr(mk2-9).

This system is easy like new, but also not trying milk some crys from unxeperienced players like the old one (old one is not trying, what i mean).

I say don't worry about small things like Mk1.10.

At you rank, if you need Dictator, if you want Dictator, get an Mk6 Dictator Kit.

Then if you plan to rank up slow you can MU that Kit, if not, save for an Mk7 Kit.

MUing Mk1-Mk6 equipments is a headache, and even more after that update. It's better to jump from Kit to Kit as you rank up. MU only Brutus and 1 or 2 other Drones of your choice. My opinion.

Can i buy Mk3 skipping Mk2 from the garage?

No. When buying hulls, turrets and protection, individually, you have to buy every modification.

The only way to not buy all modifications is to buy kits.

When you rank up to the next rank you can buy Mk6 Dictator kits for around 250k crystals. Do your math, but most importantly think if you really need Dictator, specially when you have a Viking Mk5 which is likely well MUed.

Another thing you can do is to buy all Dictator modifications during the coming discounts, up to only Mk5, for 65k. But again, Dictator Mk5 and Viking Mk5?

If I were you, I'd likely buy an Mk6 kit with a hull of a different segment, light or heavy. Not MU it , and save for Mk7 kit.
