Yeah, good luck trying to hit other players beside your tank.

Nanobots=Isida

Hmm...lets see, they can survive falls off a cliff, Railgun shots that go at the speed of light, being run over by Mammoths, fire, ice, nanobots, plasma balls, exploding shells, and lightning shots. I don't know, Iron?

Firebird M2----Boss at attacking Freeze M2----Boss at defending It all depends on your style of play. I personally recommend Firebird M2

I was busy fighting Rainbow Pony-Dragons with my potatogun... ...but then i replied to this topic

Better grades DOES NOT mean better job. Seriously, what's the point of getting A+ in Physics when you're gonna be a Programmer? Still, I use school to hang out with my friends.

^Don't you get it? Tanki is all about $$$. The developers' perception of balance is not really a balance, it's more of a "Make certain guns/hulls underpowered and the others overpowered and give sale to the overpowered guns/hulls" type of balance. You know, to keep the money flowing. TBH, If I had a million dollars, I would give it all to the devs and tell them to change Tanki back to the way it was 2 years ago. Eventually they will change the parameters again and make Rico really underpowered in an effort to "balance" the game. -_- STOP BEING IGNORANT PEOPLE!!!

Get Shaft :) Usable even in leiutenant ranks.

I feel your pain guys. SERIOUSLY?! Who likes to see WO5 battles filled with Drugging M2 Vikings and M2 Freezers or Sergeant battles filled with drugging M1 Thunder/Twins.

Just MU Shaft to 142 Damage and a little bit of practice, you're then fit to join leiutenant battles. --------------------------------------------------------------- Smoky M3s damage of one shot is equal to one Rico M2 shot.... Isn't this a little unfair?

Which is the better one and why?

Enjoy your Ricochet's power guys! :) For now....

~Nevermind~

I don't like to stay in a single camping spot as it makes me a predictable opponent and eventually my enemies will stop passing through my scope. I prefer put my Shaft in a medium/light hull like Hornet or Viking so that I can move around and escape short-ranged weapons while reloading. (Especially in DMs)

Guys, just get used to the new changes. You're just making a fool out of yourselves. When the 2013 Rebalance came about lots of players, and I mean LOTS of players threatened to leave the game. Guess what? THE DEVELOPERS DID NOTHING. And here we are playing Tanki right now.

Yup. Really laggy on my part here.

I guess the developers have drunk a little too much vodka....

It's good :D Looks much better with the tanks at the background.

Enjoy your Ricochet's power.. While it lasts hehehe.....

Shaft is quite effective in DMs on large maps like Madness or Desert. (Don't bother in Polygon/Highland) Tips for using Shaft in DMs *Make sure to use that arcade shot to it's fullest, you might make some kill-steals with that. *You might also need a light/medium hull as you will be needing to change your camping spots often to make you less predictable and to escape short-ranged weapons. Using a heavy hull makes you a sitting duck when reloading. *Pick up any double powers you can find. Double power means half the charge time and twice the kill rate. *Place mines in your blind spots *Watch out for Railguns!

Have you seen this video? "The process of balancing turrets and hulls is a never-ending effort" "There is no such thing as creating a perfectly-balanced game" Shaft is not nerfed. (Actually it is buffed since it's arcade mode got more useful) You just don't know how to use it right. It needed to be weak in close-range because Shaft was made for sniping/camping.

Any more questions? You just need to use shaft properly. Shaft was not made for duels. *facepalm* It was made for sniping.
