Guide [Issue 4] Parkour for Battle

Parkouring for Battle

Many players know what parkour is; the act of a person or many persons to reach an otherwise unreachable place. An example of this in Tanki is climbing over the slanted walls on the side of nearly every map in the game. While most players take this as an activity separate from battle, a few, skilled ones can use it as a significant advantage in battle. In this article, I will list four areas on three maps that can be accessed with the efforts of two tanks or less. Enjoy!

Map: Highland

Position 1:



With: Thunder and Ricochet: Drive your tank up the ramp to the elevated plateau. Drive your vehicle into the wall, until it becomes parallel with the wall itself. Face your turret into he ground, shoot repeatedly, and drive upwards simultaneously.

Railgun: Unless aided by another tank, railgun users can get to only the other side of the wall, on the same altitude as the rest of the plateau. Make sure that you go to the very corner, where there is a small gap between the two walls. This is possible by paralleling your tank with the wall’s slope, shooting toward the ground, while pressing the keys that you would use to drive upward and toward the gap between the walls. Once your tank is in the gap, point your railgun toward the area that you just came from, and shoot and drive until you find yourself out of the gap. Then, simply shoot the ground to get back on your treads. Snipe away at the end of the thin wall!



Shaft + all other weapons : It is impossible to get to these places unless another tank is used as a ‘ramp,’ for the other to drive on top of.

Most Effective Weapons: For the upper level: Shaft --- Lower level: Thunder

Position 2 :

With: Hornet or Wasp (Any turret) : Drive up the ramp to the other elevated plateau in the map, and go toward the edge of the red house in the corner. Staying on the ledge, turn around the corner and drive to the gap between the two houses.

Thunder or Ricochet : Use the same method used to reach the other spot; Shoot the ground and drive up. Mind your energy bar! You may die if you hit yourself too many times.

Most Effective Weapon : Thunder

Map:Kungur

Position :

With: Thunder and Ricochet : This position is accessible in two ways. Firstly, climb up any of the perimeter walls by using the common method of shooting the ground while driving upwards. After that, continue to drive around the outer wall until you reach either end of the highest elevated wall, located behind the red team’s base, if you are playing in a CTF or TDM game mode. Go up the wall with the previously mentioned method.

All other weapons : Use various ways to pile tanks on top of each, then drive up to each obstacle. If three tanks are on top of each other, then the top two should be able to reach the top of the wall. Going to the final wall, the top tank should be able to reach the final level, where he can be a serious pain for the Red team. It is one of the best parkour-able spots in the game.

Best weapon : Thunder

Map :Silence II

Position :

This position should be used only by shafts, so I will not bother to list how other weapons are supposed to get there. : The preferable tank for this position is shaft, because of its high health, stability, and lower-than-average height. Mammoth is acceptable, too. First, drive up to the first brown tube. Then, with the end of the tank that is farthest from the pipe, turn it off the edge of the cliff. Drive backwards slightly, until your tank leans to about forty-five degrees form the ground that you were just on. Quickly, drive your tank toward the tube. If you need to, turn your turret around and shoot at the ground below. You may need to repeat this process of “worming,” multiple times, before you finally find yourself in position on top of the tubes. Once there, go to the farthest corner, and snipe with confidence, since nobody can sneak up behind you.

You must have been banned for doing parkour that would not be advantageous to your team. All of the places that I included in this article can be used in battle.

nope. I used the pipe trick with shaft.

In that case, I guess that I am a terrible person, who hates everyone. Please excuse me as I go cry into my pink plush pillow in my waterbed.

pink pillow? I did it before you're guide. But I seriously got banned for it.

Aaaand the discussion goes off-topic.

But when doing parkour you can get banned. If you remember the hacking scandal earlier on this year, hackers used to go to parkour places with the flag. So now, going to parkour places is dangerous as the game can think you're hacking and kick you out of battle.
