Which Merc Should I Get For 10.99 or less?


(505Northman) #1

Hi there! I was wondering if you guys had any suggestions for what merc I should go with for 10.99 or less in Canadian dollars as I currently have that much. I was thinking about Stoker or Thunder but which one do you think I should get? Here are the mercs that I currently own:

  1. Phoenix
  2. Aura
  3. Skyhammer
  4. Phantom
  5. Fragger

Anyone else but those characters would be very much appreciated to know what merc I should get. I don’t want to be wasting money on a bad merc. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thank you.

Save a little bit and buy Deployables bundle?

I don’t want to be wasting money on a bad merc.

Something like “bad merc” doesnt exist. Mercs are as good as you are.
I advise you to buy merc fitting your game style. I personally prefer Stoker over Thunder.

If you’re a good aim, vassili, if you’re a bit worse aim, kira, if you’re worse than that, stoker, even worse, rhino, if even minigun is too hard, get a shotgun card for aura

Well, in the end, I bought Stoker. He’s good for Area Denial but he looks a lot like a Skyhammer just with flames and an ammo station than ammo pack. Thanks for the help guys!

Doesn’t Skyhammer and Aura come with the game any way? When I got into Dirty Bomb him and Aura were both free?

Phantom.

Reading is apperently quite hard.

Also get Arty + S82 Loadout.

Sawbonez. He is a pretty solid choice while not being complete standout he was the 1st merc I bought and is pretty solid.

Don’t listen to them. You should buy Proxy next.

Like the other people said if you play more defencee go for proxy and kill enemy players with you mines. Aura/sparks both are good mercs.


(Sytry) #12

Aura or sparks I suggest

I would say: wait, try the mercs when they are on the free rotation, then buy the one you have the most fun with.

Also by the time you have tested most mercs, you’ll have enough credits to buy at least one of them.

if you want an assault/breaching merc stoker is generally better. his molly cooldown is long but it has amazing splash/area denial and can denest people really effectively, and youre basically trading 40 HP and access to an “Eh” machine gun for infinite ammo, the ability to completely deny an area for ten seconds (the only ability which can do that), a more effective breaching tool (its easier to throw a molotov, kill a guy or two, then go in and kill the last couple wounded people than killing four dudes who are temporarily blinded), team support, ev destruction, generally better passives, more speed, and the ability to mine more salt from rhinos than has ever come from slavic regions

Dont buy thunder… U should get Nader, Stoker, Fletcher!


(N8o) #16

People tell me Phantom is a pretty good merc. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)


(BerylRdm) #17

Trolling is a art :smiley:

You’ll need an engineer. I think you should buy Bushwhacker, Fletcher or Proxy.

If you’re a beginner, I highly recommand Bushwhacker as I find him quite beginner friendly. KEK-10 is an extremely potent weapon and the Turret is not too hard to use. He’s also oftenly used in competition, so you can’t really go wrong with him.

I did indeed get Stoker, just saving up for Proxy now so that I have an objective specialist to do specialist things. I’m in need for a engineer type character to do objectives fast.

I like Proxy, once you learn the maps you know where people will try to flank your team so you just drop mines and make people super pissed off. She’s like the ultimate troll character. Sometimes I like to drop a mine around a corner and try to bait people to follow me to “finish me off”. I killed 3 people with 1 mine like that just an hour ago. sooo much fun.
