Fav/Least Fav Vehicles

Whose stats are those? Certainly not ours, where tanks have racked up more kills than everything else put together (Dreamus, Bitchslap)...

Gorzakk's.

Well .. I think you all know with what vehicle I kill you the most.. :) . ..

To start-- all vehicles.. faster than the paladin are good to transport loads of people to the nodes.. at the start of a match ..

Hell bender .. Very nice driving it with sits full.. or u alone.. if your skillfully skilled to switch between sits fast.. Good to destroy nodes fast.. and take mines and enemy players out of the scene.. Also very good at defending nodes from air atacks.. lets say raptors and those anoying Cicadas..

The little bugs.. I dont like em much .. Always see em as a last resource of transport.. but even somethimes i rather go on foot... This little things are so letal to tanks let me say .. :( .. even worst than mantas..

Mantas .. As everyone else.. I like em .. these are like. the to get fast there.. ways .. Anyone taking one.. under a critical node situation must use it wiselly .. and .. well get there.. !!!! .. this are very good node destroyers.. if you get the DD on you .

Tanks .. ?? i think i saw one of these but dont really remember.. Great offense/defense vehicles.. oh so pretty.. :*

The SPMA .. Very nice vehicle.. It was just about to be sucky .. but the thing has a second sit!! .. how great is that.. you hide.. you plant your sat and kill .. someone gets near you you shock combo blast them .. .. replant your sat .. and keep on kiling.. This hting gets you a lot of points if well used..

Paladin ... Hum .. I dont use them much .. and when i do .. is just for.. Defense.. I think thats what thing is for.. Bscly ..

The cicada .. Wierd vehicle.. I cant get any skill with that thing.. Its so hard to aim for me .. and second seat .. just i find it.. Well the whole vehicle is just so inconfortable..

Raptors.. Very nice transport... the best and faster .. if you need to go way so far.. I dont use em alot but for that porpouse.. as they are in the air.. they very easy to lock with avril .. or if theres an skilled shock rifle whore on ground u go down.. and I just hate when i have a lock on my vehicle.. Nice node destroyers if no enemy is around..


Levi .. never get on one of those!!.. I still dont find em usefull .. make all the fun go away.. so easy to kill with a single manta.. even when not deployed.. if you know that the thing will never touch u if you spin around it shoothing at it..

I think the key, especially in competitive environments is to use every vehicle when and where it is appropriate. I have my favorites, but in the right circumstances, I will use even my most hated vehicles.

For instance, I hate the spammer, but on a map like tricky, it's extremely key. That middle node doesn't stay up for long, and the spammer can do some serious damage to the primary node. In a circumstance like that, I'll hop in the spammer, no problem.

With that said, in a non-vehicle specific situation, I'll use a Raptor and Manta before anything else. I always feel the need to get to the fight as quickly as possible. The raptor, if flown correctly, is nearly invincible against ground troops that insist on using avrils to shoot it down. Even if you have two or three different people locking on. If you are experienced enough, you can break the locks without too much trouble. Against a good shock riflist the raptor is pretty much toast, but at least you can soften the target up before you have to bail.

Mantas are great against ground troops and indispensible in getting you to the fight fast.

I suck in the scorpion. And I will almost never hop in a paladin (because it's more important to take out the enemy shooting at the node, than to protect the node). I've become more at home in the goliath after generally staying away from them.

Well said, Tox, but your comment about the Paladin isn't ALWAYS the case; I think your comment about the situation being first and foremost is true in that situation as well. Just recently I had an encounter on Scorpion Canyon, where I was defending one of the two nodes in the canyon with a Paladin, against a Raptor and one or two people on foot. I knew there was a tank coming to help me out, so I put the shield up and tried to turtle against the Raptor, after shooting the guys on foot. The tanker was smart enough to get out and fire an Avril at the raptor, while his machine gunner and I flushed him out. Saved the node, it did.

[DW_ToxicWaste]

True, if you have help. If you don't, you're just a sitting duck in a Paladin.

[Purity_the_Kitty]

That's very true unless you're on Tricky. Being able to pull a quick 180 jump in a Paladin surprises the everloving hell out of so many people. Even some of your experienced clan members don't see THAT one coming. :p

AHAHAHA ... a Sitting Duck...!! .. lol.. oh man .. where you get all those from Toxic? .. hahahaha ... Sry ..


Just face it Paladin is a Shield MAchine.. THus for Defense.. and thats about it..
