What gearscore is good for certain ranks?

[qwds 185]

It would be helpful if any veteran players could give some rough estimations of what gearscores are good, bad, ahead of the curve so to speak at different ranks. Thanks a lot!

I am legend 90, i have a low rank acc always twice GS as others, works very well. All free to play. No buy

I use hunter + whatever gun i got free augment from container, (or paladin if play mobile, or titan if you play mainly defensively, hunter is best at ctf and rgb and agressive style with it OD)

Reach wiki rank chart, so you wont accidently unlock next mk before you max current mk, as you can have next mk free if max MU current mk. BIG Crystal saver if you use each sale, and you enjoy next mk early than others

https://en.tankiwiki.com/Ranks

Basically, you should have 1 combo at max at before you unlock next level of mk

For WO1 rank, my gs is 5300,

Max brutus, mk3-10 gun, mk3-10 hull, mk2 module x3. As you see, drone alone contribute 2733GS, so max drone is must.

 

For 1 diamond rank, my GS 6000

For 1 red star rank, my GS 7000

 

For 1 gold star rank, my GS 8000,

Max drone, mk6-9 gun+hull+crystal augment, mk6-4 mod x3,

For marshal and above, you can get mk9000 easily

 

The key is play only daily mission and missions only, finished weekly mission spreading into each day. Dont play super mission in weekends and dont focus much on super mission in early rank.

The slower you reach WO1 is critical, use all the wait time to upgrade brutus to max, 

So you can save a lot of crystal from free containers to upgrade 1 combo , 

Container also best way to get augments for free

Thanks for the advice. I'll try it with my new acc.

For what things do you wait until sales to upgrade? Everything? Do you mu only on sales?

Before wo1, sale is not that important as mk 1 mk2 is cheap. Just mu each step of main combo as soon as possible, no speedup.

Sale is good for buy modules, as early ranks, module less than 30% wont make much difference, so can wait sale to buy modules. 

Only after wo1, sale is good to buy 2nd combo, 

On my 4 low rank acc.

One use rico because i got helio augment from container,

One i use hammer because good damage ouput

One i use tesla because good damage output

One i use smoky because i got augment as well.

For mobile, i recommend smoky paladin, as smoky on mobile has good auto firr rate.

Thanks, that makes it clearer for me!

I don't think I'll get a 2nd combo, 1 seems to be enough to complete missions and I also enjoy very few turrets and hulls. I guess it's good to upgrade a 2nd turret though if I got a good augment for it, even if I don't like it

I still have some questions, hope you dont mind.

At WO1 you said Mk3-10 hull, you mean turret too right?

at Brigader/1 gold star rank you said "max drone", do you mean a new drone and not Brutus?

What do you mean with "crystal augment"?

At wo1, mk3-10 for both turret and hull 

Max drone means brutus drone, with crystal from containers, you should be able to mu to max brutus drone before wo1 rank.

Brutus drone is more than enough till legend ranks, dont buy any drone until legend or you max 3 combos, as epic level container will give you drone for free. 

Crystal augment = means augment you can buy with crystal, like hull fire resistance, nano bot for isida, . You can get those free from container as well and free challenge free tier, dont buy crystal augment, as you get them free from container and once you get legend level status effect augment, like ap smoky, emp twins, you wont use crystal augment any more

My most easy combo at legend 90 is

Shaft max + ares max + brutus + 4 module max = 9999

I'm pretty sure I'm going to use ares, since it's imo the top 3 best hulls right now and its OD can wreck absolute havoc. I love scorpion, it's what I've wished railgun was, with its instant fire.

What are your favorite hulls and turrets?

favorite hulls and turrets

Used to be rail hornet, but nowadays too many gun can 1 shot kill light hull at legend battle, i moved to twins viking, then isida titan as tanki grow from years back.

My fav now depends on what OP augment i got from container, 

On low rank, because i got helio, my fav is rico hunter.

On legend acc, my fav is jammer freeze hunter trickster.

But since i got vaccum shell, i use thunder mammoth trickster for clean mines.

On mobile, i use AP smoky  crusade hyperion due to fast auto fire,

On mobile, i also use shaft AP, ares, brutus if i want to save battery

On mobile, if i got kill mission or damage mission, i ise EMP gauss ares criss.

Fav depends what is OP now what is nerfed, what tanki changed, what can make life easier
