So is this plane 190 coins or 205 coins?
ReplyDeleteit costs 205 coins only if u change regional settings to Arabic - then - Saudi Arabia, but whether or not it's going to cost 190 coins is yet to be seen :) , lets just hope it's true
ReplyDeleteI think Z2Live has changed the price of Rath from 190 to 205 coins, independent of your Region Format setting. So lucky for those, who've dared to buy the Rath when it was still 190 and invisible.
DeleteBesides the trick through region format still works with version 4.1.1, only not with Thailand region setting but with Arabic//Saudi Arabia. Probably a newer version will fix this, so remember not to update your game version before you've bought all feature planes you want.
lol, i did not buy "The Rath" instead I bought The "Spectre" - using this new Saudi trick - Now this is really a plane to shout about ! Lugg you were right !! - it is one of the best planes - ( even though ) - I fly like a trainee with it, but I think in good hands - This could be th best plane in whole MSW . Sorry, this comment may be of topic - but I had to comment about the Spectre, and would love to know how to fly this crazy machine better.
Delete@Vinh
DeleteHow did you find out about the Saudi trick? How long can you keep version 4.1.1 after the new version comes out?
Thanks
bought this plane in thailand region it was only 190 coins.. +(162) coins for the upgrade! plane is ok, i think it needs more dmg bonus. And the energy is superb if u like spinning 24/7. i still prefer the spectre and reaper for vs mode.
ReplyDeleteI already have it. I done the Thailand trick and it takes 4 bisnovats to shoot me.
ReplyDeleteI think this plane is better than the Mako, Spectre, Threasher, Zephyr, and perhaps the Dynasty or Ugly Reaper. I wish it was a Super Hornet not the old Hornet.
ReplyDeleteI dont think so. It's a better look but not better performance one
DeleteIt was 190 coins right?
Blue Hornet has best in class +15% energy and +% DMG resistance.
DeleteLets say you have 100 armor and at missile fired at you does 50 damage. However they DMG resist takes of 4 damage from the missile making it only 46 damage so you have 54 armor left. Of course your extra energy will be handy.

i already shot it down... i hate people with low skill ratings and new planes.
ReplyDeleteWhy are you so agressive and contemptuous?
DeleteSorry but what you say is stupid. New planes should be only for player with high SR? And how much SR? What would you say if some guys with SR higher than yours said that you should not be allowed to fly a new plane?
All players, whatever their SR, must be respected and be allowed to have fun with MSW. I you have a high SR, good for you, but it means that you spent a lot of time on this GAME, nothing more...
1 word: jelly
DeleteActually it makes perfect sense for a lower sr person to buy a top plane. Spending time, effort and coins to buy and upgrade a lesser plane that you won't use very long makes no sense.
DeleteIt just makes me a bit sad to see new planes with new plots. These new pilots have no clue what their doing and just get battered by my RAAMs...
DeleteYes, but it still makes sense to start with the best instead wasting time, coins and credits on something short term. It also makes sense to learn with best. Early on I was beating guys with RAAMs and sometimes coin missiles while I was playing with standard missiles and a Hawken.
DeleteAnd it's more fun to fly a plane that you fully appreciate, even if you are not (yet) able to maneuvrate very well. I would probably not have kept playing without the pleasure to get, upgrade and fly planes that had drawn my eye. For me, this is what makes MSWM a game that we appreciate so much, whatever our SR. Many planes make many players, many players with different planes and different SR make a great game.
DeleteWhatever you think, most people in this forum (especially MetalStorm Forever I hope) probably agree that disparaging words are not welcome here.
Do you think Z2live know about the thailand trick?
ReplyDeleteThere is probably a different trick for every version.
I think you're right. In the newer version of MSW thailand doesn't work anymore it's saudi arabia now.
DeleteI have a strange feeling its going to be India next. I'm probably totally wrong.
DeleteThis plane just seems too close to my thresher. Except it has a little more agility and a little less evasion. With that said, I'm afraid not enough justifications to drop all the loot for nostalgia sake alone.
ReplyDeleteThis plane is a piece of junk for several reasons
ReplyDelete1-it is supposed to be based after the blue angels. However, if you look at the very front of the plane, the yellow nosecone of the metalstorm wingman version should actually be blue.
2-the name is just stupid- rath not wraith...how creative
3-damage resist is useless if you fly an agility class aircraft well. Then energy combined with the agility and speed is all it takes for a real pilot to win.
4-since the damage resistance is pretty much useless, you might as well buy a spectre which is available through the saudi arabia trick.
In other words, don't buy this plane
Only one of those reasons actually made sense wat do names and one little anesthetic mistake have to do with the plane being bad for instance the reaper arguably the best plane in the game is called the reaper and looks bad to some but that doesn't make it any less awsome

Bought it...for collection purpose.
ReplyDeleteHas anyone noticed that the 3-03 Marauder has been added to the list for 68,000 credits?
ReplyDeleteS-03* not, 3-03
Deletety, 4 tht info man... now ive got another plane to collect, ive always want tht plane since b4! i didnt even bother to scroll down when i was in that region and its nice too coz its only creds. now i want the saber!
DeleteMarauder ??? Where ??? Saudi ????
DeleteMarauder will stay in hangar after it is released for real, which should be next week... Not a limited edition plane, so don't rush yourself on earning enough credits to buy it.
Deleteawww ur right !!!!! and I'm broke !!! lol ..... Damn !!!! :((
ReplyDeleteI wish if Z2live would re-continue the F-41 Viper. Why did they discontinue it. Was it because it trashed of the green eagle? I heard that the viper has a hidden extra damage for the green eagle (green bastard)
ReplyDeleteI have the green eagle and I am glad they discontinued the viper. It was taking so much life by each shot! They are so fucking annoying!
ReplyDeleteGreen eagle pilot,
DeleteYou are the one who is fucking annoying. All you guys do is fly around in your tired, old turtle while your armor regenerates. Continous standard issue cannon fire will only slow down your armor regeneration. All you do is fly around, give the enemy a dent in their armor, do 100000 backflips, and game over...+25 skill...And yet you complain about the viper which has hardly any damage?????????
...people these days
Nah the viper has a hidden extra damage against the green eagles. The damage extra is about +50.
ReplyDeleteSick! I will get the viper instantly if it comes out!
ReplyDeleteThe Viper is majourly underrated. WTF. It just can't. After all it green eagles most feared enemy.
ReplyDeleteI bet that Viper won't beat my green eagle even though I never met one in a battle. I heared that their pilots are very professional and skilled. I am bored of winning all the time. Z2live should release it to put us under pressure. I will get that plane also.
ReplyDeleteStop acting like it takes any effort to fly the green eagle it doesn't plus the fact that you've never met one in battle and u assume u can beat it just because yur plane is overpowered is sad also u can't beat pilots who are smart cuz they will just out maneuver u any pilot who is smart will know the green eagle is crap in versus cuz if u have a brain the best a green eagle can do is tie u
DeleteCELT1C SA1NT
Anon not trying hard enough to promote useless plane. At least add some bogus poster names and leave bigger gaps between post times. 2/10
ReplyDeleteOi. Why is the green eagle flyer getting angry at the viper flyers?
ReplyDeleteMy theory was that they're the same anonymous poster, but the Viper being such a beast plane is a MUCH more logical explanation to this "green eagle pilot's anger".
DeleteOK - screw the Viper for a sec- does anyone know when the Red Widow will be released ? That plane's all I want now - I have faced the Viper quite a number of times already - most of the time, I was in a Sentinel - and it never really posed to be a threat - I mean Viper Viped out - but the Widow on the other hand, Makes my Sentinal feel like a 2 seater Cessna. Lost more matches to a Red Widow even compared to a Spectre
ReplyDeleteVery similar to spectre in terms of energy and very similar to reaper in terms of "taking hits." Compared to other agility planes that has no energy or armor/dmg resist bonus, you roughly get like one more barrel roll until exhausting energy and able take one more hit from weapons class using raam before you explode.
ReplyDeleteThats a helpful comparison to other agility planes. So what do you guys think? Is it worth it. The cost is right up there with other planes at 205 coins. Is it a good deal?
ReplyDeleteI got the red widow and a viper pilot has beaten me. 3-2 I had bisnovats and he had rams and banshee.
ReplyDeleteIs it me or the plane that's better?
its u and the plane both sucks! ur spamming BISNOOBAT coz u cant win w/o it.. uve got no skills the more u suck if ur using standard ammo's ur embarassing..
DeleteWhy did Z2 live discontinue the Viper. I think it was cause of its hidden feature against the green eagle. Why on earth discontinue it. I gonna complain at Z2Live.com on support.
ReplyDeleteRed widow is shit I hammered a guy with that plane with c101 using rams and banshee. I had 2x less skill rating.
ReplyDeleteThe Red Widow is better than the Viper. Let's get back on topic for this forum. Has anyone else bought the Rath? Fought it? What are your thoughts about it?
ReplyDeleteI had the Rath before officially released through the Thailand trick. I dared to buy it when there was no image of it yet. I really like the Rath cause of the shape. That makes me like the F-41 Viper as well. It's just a different vinyl.
ReplyDeletecould you see it when u bought it with no image?
DeleteIt just said. Spectating while the opponent is flying around for 2 mins but they quoted first so that was easily achieving skill rating.
DeleteYes I got the Rath for 190 blue coins.
ReplyDeleteAs a cousin, how does it compare against the Liberty?
ReplyDeleteYou can't compare it with the liberty. The liberty is a weapon class plane and the rath is an agility class plane.
Deletei got it before for 190 coins with no tricks and im from chile ( the south of the world)
ReplyDeleteDont by the Rath, I think its much better with Spectre. I killed one using my C-101... But maybe he wasnt upgraded, and some draw with others.
ReplyDeletei have a fully upgraded rath its a kick ass plane but if im honest i just got it for collection purposes , i use a fully upgraded spectre most of the times and i win almost everytime
ReplyDeleteever since i got my fully upgraded rath, i win almost every match. others accussed me of cheating or is it the rath is just awesome!
ReplyDeleteI just got into flight demonstration teams. So, I bout this plane. I like the smooth curves of the body. I wish I also bought the liberty
ReplyDeleteZ2 bring back the green eagle for 300 blue coins! not a bad deal right?
ReplyDeleteZ2 bring back the green eagle for 300 blue coins! not a bad deal right?
ReplyDeleteZ2 bring back the green eagle for 300 blue coins! not a bad deal right?
ReplyDeleteGreen Eagles are easy to tie - they are very slow - they are just hard to kill unless you have coin missiles, then they are toast
DeleteYeah Z2 mess it up a little bit! bring back the green eagle and the viper. what a combination?
ReplyDeleteI think the Rath is a very good "true" Agility class plane. The Rath has a pleasing combination of damage resistance, agility, speed and that extra boost of energy. The Rath is a good dogfighter for Agility class planes due to its high agility and speed. Its damage resistance is also a high point - not only is it lithe and speedy but can dodge missiles well with the energy boost. Even if the missiles do hit, its damage resistance will stamp out a lot of the health loss. Still, its an Agility class plane with hummingbird armor. Do not get carried away with the extra damage resist. But even still, a fully upgraded Rath is a serious contender. High agility, high speed, high energy, a bit of damage resist and some energy regeneration make this a top class plane.
ReplyDeleteAgree with above comment. For me Rath is the best Agility plane, by far.
ReplyDeleteI agree. I am an agility pilot (35K SR) and I have all the agility planes. Rath is the best for me.
DeleteNew wraith out, for when glitch with server ends, E-41 cobalt, just the weekend
ReplyDeleteWespons class
Damage-15%
Agility-10%
Evation-6%
Lock range-8%
Like the iorn fang stats wise same couloirs, but with yellow flames not stripes
Rath pilots, watch and enjoy:
