Best loadout for defender?

So I'm kind of struggling right now. I only win 2 battles out of 5, 3, if I'm lucky. I could really use your guys' advice.

 

Defender works best with all type cannons because you have high hp can charge unfriends with little reload time,blue slot should go for standard shield and bigshield by using Hp perks also you can use turbo if you think it's too slow.

 

I always do triple cannons myslef I love just going ship to ship and destroying lol

 

Defender are Cannon gunships perfectly. Using a rare cannon amd epic sniper cannon on my mk 2 with a rare Small shield and a Rare Turbo. I found the turbo helps more with getting to better cover or firing spots as well with mortar and cannon evasion. My mk2 is 1.15 speed so far. Outspeeds half the shooters in my league with 600-800 more hp. Only thing to keep in mind os its slow turret speed.

 

defender. amazing ship with an INSANE potential. Even back when I had 300 infamy I easily got 2k games (games where i did 2000 or more damage to the enemy team) in it. This thing DESTROYS stuff. With its great HP and ability to carry 2 weapons, this ship is my favourite in the whole game so far. I use a lv 7 tier 1 rare cannon and a lv 18 tier 2 uncommon sniper cannon. Something I always do at the beginning of the battle is switch to my sniper cannon because it has a longer range which is good for the early game, and it has better damage output and projectile speed which is very beneficial for hitting faraway targets. When you get to the higher MK's make sure to use a turbo or even a gear lube to improve your sluggish speed (the only downfall of the defender). Make sure you train Bhurt and Brock because Bhurt helps your cannons' stats and Brock gives the defender and your shields extra health. They also give you captain XP which helps you get to the higher MK's faster. Lastly, make sure you check out your achievements (top left button on the home screen) because they give you tons of pearls, weapons, and other cool stuff.
Hope that helped

 

Thx for all the advice guys! 1 more thing, I can't decide between bandage and turbo for the blue spot. Which is better?

 

Well... it depends. Bandage is only useful if you are playing a defensive game and you feel like sitting back and sniping rather than going into the action (something I would strongly advise against in the Defender). Bandage takes over 2 minutes even getting you back a third of your HP, and that's if you don't get hit. Turbo is great if you already have a shield because it helps you avoid some shots and allows you to keep up with your team or relocate, which is sometimes crucial. It also helps you in 1v1s because you can outflank the other player. So at this stage, I would strongly recommend turbo as long as you have a shield as well.
Cheers!

 

What's better a blast cannon or a normal one? The blast cannon has more damage but a longer reload time. The cannon has less damage but way faster reload time. Is one better or are they about the same?

 

Cannon is better sustained dps... Burst is better.... burst..

Get both tbh, and a sniper too

 

When you get to the higher MK's get a good blast cannon, but for now, stick with the more reliable regular cannon and sniper cannon. Blast cannons are great for close-range fights, but not so great in long range due to the low projectile speed.

 

Can some one also help me I keep on losing matches when i use defender mrk.1 its just i dont know whats the good loadout of it pls help
