AMOGUS ? Seriously though, I think they're just trying to give players an easy mission with that one, nothing too concerning about it in my eyes.

While most status effects only occur on criticals, there are a few exceptions. In the case of gauss, critical damage on a salvo would be OP, but then again so would status effects on non-charged shots, so the status effects are given to the salvos. Shaft AP and Magnum AP are other augments that apply their status effect with a different mechanic than criticals.

From a free Shard container ?

I haven't yet. There was a bit of discussion in the helper discord but no official word. Also (though I imagine this would be rather unpopular if this turned out to be the reason), there's the possibility you mentioned: they're trying to increase the amount of AP immunities bought directly for 4990 tankoins. It's a much lower value than spending the same amount on containers or ultras, but if that's the only way to obtain them, a few players might bite. I'm not sure whether to expect an official answer on the matter or not, but I can bump the question on discord again. ?

It depends on the turret - some have different mechanics. In the case of hammer (and in fact, all turrets whose damage decreases with distance), the full critical damage is dealt at whatever range the enemy is hit. This means that, at a range where normally only a couple of hammer pellets would hit an enemy, they'll take the full critical damage. The wiki page for critical damage has more details, though just to let you know, I and the other editors aren't finished with it yet, so some information is still missing there.

Generalissimo is such a cool-looking icon when ranking up. Congrats on the big milestone!

Haha, you found my easter egg on Easter! There should be a picture with the message though, looks like the page may not have finished loading properly.

I love them! The passive accumulation is great for my alt that I don't play on much - lets me still have good equipment for my rank. On my main acc, they're also fantastic - between passive accumulation and missions, I'm earning 2-3 containers per day from shards. As a result, I'm no longer running out of supplies, and the pool of rare rewards is finally getting thinned down to just the good stuff.

Overall looks pretty cool but I'm gonna miss my mines :( Not sure, but I'll test when it comes out ?

unrelated question

That's weird! You're certainly right that AP augments for tracked hulls don't appear in the reward pool for any type of container. I don't have any way of reliably testing if this is actually the case right now or if it's just a graphical thing, so I'll ask some higher-ups what they think. If it is indeed the case, I don't know why. Some possibilities: It's a bug Devs simply forgot to add the other AP immunities to the pool when they added the hovering ones Tanki wants to entice more users to use hovering hulls APs for tracked hulls are being held for battle pass rewards, such as Titan's next month (doesn't seem likely, as other augments appearing in the battle pass are still in containers/ultras)

I'm really vibing with this whole stars-for-missions system

Spectrum B baybeeee Which turret do you find hardest to use?

Hmm, I just went and played with Scout for a bit, and at least in legend battles, it doesn't feel too OP (at least, not any more so than other augments; rail in general is back in the meta right now). If you're referring to actual fly hacks, check out this page for reporting them - https://en.tankiwiki.com/Reporting_a_violator If what you're talking about is Hopper's overdrive, though, then I'm afraid that there's no indication that it's going away. If it makes you feel better, it was recently nerfed so that it couldn't be reactivated if the Hopper dies right after.

This is an interesting discussion! I wanted to chime in with a potential explanation for the changes made to Railgun in this update. I think part of the reason that Railgun was chosen to have such frequent/powerful criticals is that Falcon modules are so common. Before this update, we had a system where Railgun had to be OP to be playable with the modules, and then everyone had to upgrade their modules to survive Railguns, and then Railgun had to be more OP, etc. Now that there are somewhat frequent protection-ignoring critical hits, the devs can balance railgun augments by modifying their critical damage and probabilities without having to worry so much about the Falcons running around everywhere, since they just counter the relatively weak regular shots. I'm not certain whether that was the intention or not, but it's food for thought. The balance has certainly changed, and it's possible we'll see some further adjustments as was mentioned in the announcement topic.
