Hi there! Feel free to use this topic to ask for advices from other forum users regarding equipments. As for your question, Isida & Viking is a good combo, I use it quite often myself.

Hello, today there is a discount on paints. Do you think it is worth it to buy all the country paints to cut my container rewards? Or should i just save up my Tankoins?

Yes, you should buy all the 5 tankoin paints. That will ensure that the next time your container shines blue you will get a good reward (or an almost useless augment).

Do you think this is still worth it for a mostly f2p player (I´d have to spend 150tks for 30paints left)?

I open daily conts regularly and complete the ultra weekends missions quite often too, but I never buy extra conts from the shop.

I think it is worth it; I bought all of them for my low rank account in the last 50% sale

When weekly containers used to have only 3 tankoins and completing all three weekly missions was harder, 150 tankoins were more valuable and I would have had second thoughts about buying those paints, but not now

Knowing that you'll never get a rubbish country paint from containers again is a nice feeling

Post moved.

It depends on the modes you like to play. Uranium is better for CTF and CP while Cyclone is better for TJR and Siege.

I would appreciate help with choosing protection modules that help me survive better at mid and long ranged distances.

I use mostly Shaft, and so far in the lower ranks Railgun, Guass, Striker and other Shafts seem to be the biggest threats. But which of these turrets are the most common?

Replies are much appreciated! ?

Rail has 50% chance of critical, which ignore modules... so... ?

You should equip Orca, Owl, Shark if you have 3 slots. If you have 4th slot, you can either use Eagle or Griffin.

It changes constantly depending on recent updates and turrets getting nerfed/buffed, but generally the most useful modules to upgrade are: Striker, Gauss, Vulcan, Shaft, Smoky. If you're a stationary camper, then Magnum module might also be good against enemy Magnums targeting your location specifically.

So it might be a waste of resources to get a module for it then...

this used to be my favorite video game. I often liked it even more then minecraft. Whenever somebody mentions 2017 or 2018, I think tanki online, and the good old days.

Every update makes this game a little bit worse, but then i would learn to live with it for a while, and then another update would make me rage. 

That was overall survivable until 2021, the worst year of our lives, where the updates spammed, and now i cant play the game anymore without rage quitting

 

Would you like to tell more about what it is that has made the game worse? I'm genuinely interested to hear about it, thanks.

If I like and use a certain combo, why do I need augments and skins for others? Like lets say I use Viking and Smoky, I want to get augments for that combo or get nice skins for that combo, instead Tanki has me open containers which have like next to no chance of me getting what I want for what I use. Like why are those things based on just luck? It keeps giving me stuff I don't need and won't let me get what I want. Like I look at older YouTube videos of Tanki and players actually got to choose to buy augments that they wanted, it should've been that way.

This is a common thing in games these days I believe. The point is to get you addicted to gambling to try to get what you what.

Anyway I am here to seek some advice. I am about to rank up to Marshal where many of the MK-7 equipment will be unlocked. My Wasp and Dictator are both MK-6, I love speed so I mostly use Wasp but when I want to change things up for a bit I'll use Dictator. I hate heavy hulls, I am here to have fun lol. However based on what I've heard, Wasp isn't that great at the higher ranks. Now... I get put in battles with Legend ranks quite a bit, but I'll still get the highest score nonetheless, so IDK maybe people just are bad with Wasp. However I have realized that the Wasp bomb.. against high ranking players requires a little more technique, people immediately move away from it and at high ranks most hulls are faster so unless it's a tight enclosed space, its quite difficult.. again requires more technique. However Hornet seems to be more popular. IDK, is Hornet that much better? 

Second I also got the Camper drone in a container, I used it and I like it! The supplies last for sooooo long, I am really never out of all 3 supplies. And it's at just the base level. I already upgraded the Brutus all the way to MK-20 (just today actually) and I like it since it's passive. But I really like Camper drone too, should I start upgrading it until I get Hyperion?

Wasp really isn’t bad, in fact it’s just as good if not better than Hornet. The latter is more effective with turrets with high critical damage like Striker, Smoky, Freeze etc. Therefore it’s probably more effect than Wasp at the higher ranks, especially when coupled with the Booster drone.

Unless if you’re using Trickster or Crisis I would recommend staying away from the heavy hulls. But if you want to dominate almost every battle choose Paladin or Crusader. The game really does seem to revolve a lot around the hovering hulls (and subsequently mouse controls) these days.

With regards to drones, you really can’t go wrong with Booster, Defender or Trickster. In my opinion most of the other drones pale in comparison to these three, with the exception of Crisis. However with how difficult it’s becoming to acquire batteries, don’t be surprised if you’re forced to use Brutus for a while.

Can't decide on a hull to buy this sale.

I only have Mk4 Striker w/ Remote Explosives and Dictator Mk4 w/ AP Immunity. I'm buying Hammer Mk5 for my Jam Shot. I'm considering Hornet, Paladin, Crusader or Viking. I play mostly midrange, but go for objectives when no one else does. 

I think Hornet fits the best with Striker and Hammer because I can easily tilt my hull up to detonate RRE over walls, and supercharge works great with them. Does Hornet fit the midrange role, though?

Crusader -- and especially Paladin -- I find difficult to control (yes I use mouse). The multidirectional movement takes some getting used to. Turning is impossible without moving your mouse in the direction you want, often throwing your aim off. Impact force is a pain. Quick-peeking is impossible because of the heavy inertia. Crusader OD sucks for vertical auto-aim. Paladin OD not great for Striker? Probably not gonna be close enough to make use of Jam and AP.

Viking isn't great for Striker RRE; both for tilting and its OD. Great for Hammer though.

All are solid choices, although as you already have a medium hull, I think hornet could be a good addition to your garage. Also it's great with rre.

 

Also it is always a good idea to try your new hull on a test server before buying.
