i think :
-boomer is most damaging in high level games
-get "money suits" like hawaiin wear and vampire coffin red nose etc" that have the most stars to get money fast as possible for the best avatars like gold armor or chief hair etc.
-u should always watch out for wind changes...
-try not to sg(shotgun) (shotgun is when u charge up all the way and shoot it straight into the enemy)

i haven't played gb in a while though.. u dont need to follow what i said
life goes on..

if you get really good at aiming, the prime target is where the robot's eyes are

that's 'center', if you hit it it will do most damage

that's how you do 650 damage with dual 2nd shot in armor bot with no items

I played this for a while and the only tips I can give is to find a bot you like (I love Nak) and "practice practice practice"

I always play avatar off. It's more fair there, and Avatar On becomes basically like avatar off, since everyone uses pretty much the same stuff. There are like, I dunno, 5 or 6 or so different suits that give you the best stats. So I never play there, and I don't know the stats
In general
-bots are relatively balanced (not perfectly, nowhere close to perfectly) but every bot is good for a number of situations. so sometimes, you can get a map that totally screws your bot of choice. Don't worry, you can be pretty effective in any bot
-the damaging bots are trico, nak, raon, sate and armor. boomer is OK at damaging, but sometimes it randomly does very low damage (like, 350 for a dual)
-theoretically, lightening is the best bot for damage, but you need unreal accuracy
-the easiest and most newbie friendly bots are ice, mage, aduka and maybe grub, but i recommend against grub if you are learning the game, and want to get better at aiming

This game's not very hard to learn. Learn different bots, using one bot continuously gets very boring.

Gunbound is the dumbed down version of worms to entertain 10 year olds. Play a real mans game, go play worms.

Every bot has a "sweet spot" as I like to call it. For instance, if you hit a bot right where it's wheels are with boomer, it will do a lot of damage. You just have to figure them out. Boomer is the best, such a leet money bot.
Edit: My real advice would be to not even play the game as softnyx is making all the new avatars really good but cash only. As they did with Phoenix.

Forunately, idiots are willing to trade those new avatars for other items.

Boomer is good, but I like asset the best it's especially good for the 3v3 games where you can just SG someone next to you. A lot of people like Nada_sk don't like shotgunning because it requires less skill but it is very good. Trust me my avg hit is 255. Too many times people try to look good and get a little extra money by doing high angle shots and totally fuk up. If you are 70% sure you'll hit the target dual. If you hit the target last time and wind didn't change you should deff be dualing unless you have some sort of plan that requires not dualing.

There are a couple tricks to asset. If they are close you have to worry about under shooting them because you didn't SG them hard enuf or hit the edge closest to you of what I belive is a circle that represents the actual hittable surface of their bot which is located slightly lower than the middle of the appearance of the bot(that's why sometimes you can shoot right through them usually through the top). If they are far you have to worry about over shooting them because your shot landed on top of them and not right before them.

I don't think a huge bunge attack will work.
I don't know about any new avatars that have come out, since I haven't played for about a year, but the best avatar set back when I played was Chief Hair or Golden Helm, Golden Armour, Robot X, and one of the Pets (1 or 3).

There is a problem with the game - sging is too good. What, 25 dmg less, in return for less delay?

hmm..i think the lovebot or the lightning bot is also a GOLD MAKING BOT but only in ultra high angle,high angle,boomer,and back shot and only if you know how to use this kind of shots.Beacuse even though you didn't hit your enemy entirely
but if you hit them so close you'll get gold points unlike the boomer when you miss a shot by an cm you will not recieve any gold....

OT:Well, they have a new gunbound somewhat. It's called GB: World Champions. They added a bunch of new maps( which all pretty much stink), 2 new mobiles( they're okay. I like how the homing missiles on one of them fly around) and a new layout, which put the wind meter on the bottom. I prefer it on the top and I also prefer the old layout, but what can you do?

Boomer and Nak are the best. Go for delay items. Use Duals and that's about it.
