    Why should the mk1, who has successfully made it up to 1200, AND is staying there, be given better weapons than other mk1s at 100-200? Isn't it unfair for him to have the privilege to gain more rares and epics instead of other fellow mk1s, whose only difference from him are in their skill levels? Even though it seems like it's an uneven fight for the mk1 at 1200 against the whales there, clearly the mk1 is doing something that allows him to survive with his significantly weaker weapons against those mk5s and mk6s, and therefore be their equals. He doesn't need any better weapons to stay there, since he already proves himself competent enough to fight players with 500-1000 damage weapons with his 200 damage one.

    If you have much weaker weapons than the people you battle with, then maybe you are just more skillful than them. After all, how would you have gotten into that range in the first place? (Unless you have other better weapons/ship(s), in which case you deserve it :/; or if you were somehow carried up that high (if so don't worry since you will drop down eventually)). However if you find that you can't do much in that range and find that it's not fun then maybe you can consider dropping some infamy. Just don't drop tooo much ;)

    To be honest I don't think I'm staying at my infamy range because I'm good enough to be there lol
    Was just luck that I got here and now that I am I'm stuck! Lol i get carried every match, im always at the bottom of score board but I'm almost always the only mk1 or 2 boat in every match and the team with the smallest boat always gets the biggest boat as well :)
    A single mk5 in a battle at the range I'm in almost always means a win for that team and he's always on my team when i'm the only mk2

    In that case your best bet may be add some speed either through playing speeder or turbos and just be a distraction whilst firing torps or snipers etc. Distractors are great when they work as they draw torp and mortar fire away from those actually doing the damage. This is a role I used to love playing :)

    Thanks for your reply. But dropping Infamy is not the way, is it. Doing it on purpose is cheating.

    Still it scares people away who just started this game and being killed in just one shot. So, whatever it is, something needs to be done about it.

    With my mk2 account I tried Speeder, but my torpedo does 250 and i cannot find a second one, so that is no option as either. And as the Speeder has even lower HP, it is so much easier to kill. Even with a rare T1 nitro and T1 rare overboost, you are not going to help win a battle of you have 2 weapons both of 200 damage. It is just too weak against a mk4, mk5 or even 6. I have been the last one standing several times with my mk2 Speeder or Shooter, but when there are two Unfriends left with a mk4 or even mk5, you are not going to win. I get the tendencies to just give up and let them sink me. But that is not in my nature, but it is useless to try and sink two mk4s with 2000 hp left or one mk5 with 5000 hp.

    maybe fire bomb instead then? Or maybe just keep grinding for a few weeks and get enough green boxes to unlock some more advanced weapons etc to help you? Those games sound like your team was bad not you, this happens often and is part of the game. You can't win them all as they say ;)

    Fire bomb is rare T1, so not overly useful. I have got nothing with this account which does more than 250 damage I think. Oh wait, a Blast which does 310, but still not much against a 5000 HP Unfriend and you have to come very close.

    Get the perks for fire bomb add a few mortars to a shooter and just stay at the back firing over the top. Fire bomb does plenty of damage over time.

    Lets see how far we can get with those mk2s, maybe we surprise ourselves and the others.

    And after all, what is the fun of an easy game ;).

    If mk1-3 are supposed to be in their range, then I guess that I don't count in that range. Screenshot_20180605-133640.png

    You're in lvl 23 how do you prove that you don't have mk4 ships as your main and you just used the Mk1 shooter to attempt to prove me wrong?

    Players in the game ask me why I don't upgrade my ship. My reply is that I am better as a mk1. Screenshot_20180605-155243.png Screenshot_20180605-155247.png Screenshot_20180605-155251.png Screenshot_20180605-155255.png Screenshot_20180605-155258.png

    Lol your situation is completely different then the one this thread was created for lol
    You have higher lvl skills unlocked and far better items then your typical mk1!
    And what captain lvl and infamy is your other account? I assume you have another account or how could you possibly know your better off with staying at mk1?

    Well yes I have another account my alt, but I can't get passed 400 infamy with it and it is a mk2. Plus, I realized that when you upgrade your ship, you lose speed and turning ability. Then you have to put in Turbo and Gear Lude just to balanced it out. So, I just stay at mk1 because to me it is not worth it (I'm just saying).

    But this thread I do believe that player that are mk1-3 should get better weapons and bigger rewards.
