Hello. I am sort of a new player of gunbound (a double wooden hammer) and i am ready to buy my first avatar clothing/face/hat/etc. I'm a boy and ive spent a long time scanning through the stats and trying to figure out which one would be best to get first. I was thinking probably something like red nose because of it's popularity, or ANYTHING with good popularity so that my gold gets high faster so that i can buy "actual" stuff faster.

 What do you think is the best first boy avatar thing to buy and start with? (keep in mind it has to be lower than like 40,000 gold)

  What did YOU first buy?

I would keep saving up. :/

That's what I am doing on my noob account, I want to see how much money I can get before a certain rank.

I would say wait untill your a double metal axe before spending anything.

Don't buy money suit. Your gold doesn't make THAT drastic of an improvement, and you get the reputation of a moron. Stick to avatar off servers, and buy what you think looks good, not what has good stats :)

Get the money suit as fast as you can.  Just don't act like an idiot and go overboard trying to get personal gold at every turn instead of the team win.  For then you will indeed be labeled a moron for the things you do, not the clothes you wear...

Or.

If your want good stats...I recommend.

A sensor helm, its a rarely used item, its has 6 defense and 3 attack, and is cheaper than almost anything else with similar abilities.(btw it is in the middle of the shop not at the top)

I also highly recommend sheild and spear

giving 6 attack and 6 defense for very cheap, you will not find a better bargain.


Heavy armor is also a must once you have accumulated some cash, at only 30k it gives 12 defense (only 9 less than Golden, which is the best in the game)

A hockey mask is also an excelent buy, you may be thinking about buying battle goggles, dont, the hockey mask has 6 defense and 6 health, its like having both blue and black battle goggles equiped at one time, and for less of the cost.

price= 30k (only 10k more than a battle goggle)


However I do recommend that you buy the items like this :


1. sensor

2. shield and spear

3. heavy armor

4. hockey mask


This is a suit I designed. I didnt use it, but I have discovered now, after it is too late that this is the cheapest, best suit you can buy.


although I have some advice for you...stay away from higher ranks, like wands and high level axe's. you cant win, and they are only going to take advantage of you while your learning.

also, stay in the non-stats zone untill your suit is near  completion, fighting some one with better stats who is above or at the same skill level as you is un-advisable.

good luck. :)

I'd go for something like:
The mining helmet
Heavy armor
pet 01
Ox shield

48 defense, shouldnt take you to long to get either.  Only costs 232k

Another good suit (also for stats, even though I prefer style personally)

Indian fighter hair 50k
Pirate suit 60k
Matrix Glasses 56k
Gold hammer 65k

This one is more expensive but give you a nice delay (18) and attack (39) combo.

The first item I ever bought was a cowboy hat, it just looks that damn good.

But the items that I suggested is much lower costs wise, and it gives 30 defense, only 18 less than your's but has 9 attack and 6 health.

The items are also 30k or less, and intended so that it can be earned quickly, unlike pet -02 which is 120k and requires saving cash for a long time.

while the suit I designed is only 125k, the eyes of your suit is almost as expensive as my entire suit.

and the attack suit becomes usless aginst heavier armor, and is much too expensive, combined with the same high cost items that take new players too long to earn, and also taking into account that most new players dont know how to control delat, and dont have a high hit %, therefor being able to take the hits until they can get a lock im more important than having a high attack, which only helps when you hit.

attack is active, defense requires no action.


although I disagree over the suits I have to agree with the cowboy hat choice.  B)

plain and simple: buy what you think looks good, unless you play on avatar on servers(for obvious reasons -_-)  
o.o

Dreamcatcher

Like Bravador said, dont go straight into the avatar on servers unless your suit is complete, if you go head on into avatar on, you had better have a suit that can withstand all that pro bashing.  My suit consists of Mech armor, bazooka, lazer goggles, and magician hair, just looks good to me

Anyway, if I were to recommend one single incredible avatar, it would have to be the Egg Engle.[/size]

I don't buy guy avatars...but...i know gb will gift you marine helmet n suit when you reach stone hammer (if i remember correctly). So just save your gold for something better along the way. Stay in the avatar off servers.

What I was aiming for when I made those, was something about the same price as one piece of the so called '1337' suit. Ya know, the one everyone else uses. If you notice they both sit around 250k. It is just a mid range setup.

wut does the 1337 suit includes because i am a newbie at metal axe and wondering wut to buy also

I bought a money suit that gives me 45% more gold, and now at Silver Axe I have Heavy Armor, Battle Goggle S, Muthaiyal Hair, and Robot X. Ive also got 97k Gold, and Im saving up for Pet 02.

That sounds pretty good, Id go for that.
