cant decide who to buy


(_LOST_eXpat) #1

ok, so im saving up 50k to buy a new merc but i dont know who will suit my play style

right now im playing skyhammer

i use timik 47 with skyhammer and i like to rush and occasionally defend, mostly i enjoy the airstrikes, especially when enemies are camped together

i want a merc with a similar play style, something i can use for rushing but also able to stand my ground and defend a spot

any suggestions?

Hey there.

Perhaps Fragger would be a good choice?
He’s an incredible assault merc with lots of health, grenades and powerful weapons.

You can read about him and the other mercs in my guide.

Not all mercs are included yet but I’m working on it! :slight_smile:

I agree with Fragger being a good choice if you want some similarity to Skyhammer’s guns. Fragger just has a grenade so there is not massive damage all around, but the direct hits are devastating. If you like the massive airstrike type damage, there is also Arty whom I believe is 30k and is a bit like a mini Skyhammer in that regard, but not as durable as Fragger and his 150hp and loadouts.

I think you would really enjoy Stoker to be quite honest, based on your “especially when enemies are camped together” statement and his molotov fire can definitely work to that angle, especially for defensive roles like throwing fire on a c4 to prevent someone from defusing, or blocking a path for the enemy rushing in. There is also the fact that by default, Stoker uses the Timik/AK 47, if you really like that gun as indicated.

There are a bunch of mercs on free rotation so try them out as well, see how each plays. I hated Redeye at first when he was on free for the first time, but I decided to try him again some days after and lo and behold got the hang of him and he was fun. He has been my main since, with 5000+Kills logged.

The choice is up to you in the end and what you like, but I strongly feel Stoker will appeal to you the most at this time based on the statements you have provided.

Fragger seems like the best option realy. strong gun and strong ability it will give you a change to the skyhammer option.

i bought stoker, really love it, good for my play style, as im not the best in CQC i can just quickly throw the molotov on them, i will buy fragger when i collect another 50k

so, i bought the starter pack for $1, im really enjoying stoker and proxy, fragger is ok, but i got also 50k credits with the pack and think ill buy either bushwacker or phantom, any suggestions on which to pick?

Don’t buy phantom, he is not built for team play. From what I understand, for your playstyle, try Nader.

Fragger or Stoker
