@Ghost guns, My advice is to buy the M1 alteration, makes a huge difference in certain situations. the boost in turret horizontal rotation is absolutely worth in my opinion. just get used to rock your tank more often though.

However, you'd better forget about it if the map has many different elevations

 

Yeah, for the player that has that alteration, it's going to be very in maps like, sandbox, boombox, desert, dusseldorf, duel, duality, ping pong, and maybe even red alert. And other maps with little to no elevation.

Agreed 75%

Even in the maps with elevations , it will be good

but the M2 one would be the good choice since he will mostly camp

Decreasing the luck shots will make it more balanced ???

It's not a lucky shot it's a random shot. It's to make the game more realistic. If each shot where the same hp, that would be like a game-boy game.

You need to get better at shooting and make each shoot count.

Once you got better at aiming use the alteration High-caliber ammo. +40%

Average shot is 1680 for M3+ which is the level max without it!! With double damage you have 50% chance to kill any medium hull in one shot.

 

If you don't want any random shots then use the other alteration Shell stabilization:

See on the above chart how each damage per shot become similar. At M3+ every shoot is 1200.

So u are saying to me ...

Easy very easy damn freaking easy just buy 2 alt that one cost 100k and other 50k which mean 150k to get not even the old rail ? And 50% chance to kill med hulls by 1 shot huh ? Funny . my m3 railgun with out alt can't kill wasp by 2 shots damn high DMG gun can't kill wasp by 2 shots ,

 

And even if I have crystals (I do) its unfair to spend 150k in the past it wasn't required its look like they increased rail price 180k that damn unfair :( very unfair ,

 

And think again before answering me pls mod , how old are u anyway ? Can't u read correctly huh ? Gosh ! Now days people are so !!! . I did not said 'Remove' luck shots I said damn 'Decrease' luck shots . do u understand or need boring explain ? Sadly I can't explain more than this , my English not enough .

 

Again and again railgun must get more benefits from any kind of parameters like

Buff min DMG 7% = nerf max DMG 7%

Buff min DMG 10% = increase reload time 7%

Buff min+max DMG = nerf parenting DMG by 30% or remove it completely idk

 

Replace railgun with the alt , how ? I'll explain when some one buy railgun m0 railgun will be strong but slow but when he/she reach m2 rail level he/she will be able to buy the m2 alt which will make his/her rail shot faster but weaker as the current rail , for xp/bp it will be auto equpied ,

 

I wish some one from the great mods and helpers (what's diff anyway?) To pass my feedback to nives and hazel and tanki head admin .

 

Big massive huge thanks to all ,

Have a sweet sugar day.

You are wrong, both alteration are M2 so you have to pay 100k for both. You only need to use one because you cannot use 2 alterations of the same level therefore you can only play with one at the time. See the wiki for more details about alteration: https://en.tankiwiki.com/Alterations

You can rent them for a day (5k) to try if it helps you. Then choose the one that fit your playing style.

 

Yeah life is unfair, however you seemed to be the only one with railgun issue. No other tankers actually complain about it as opposed to Isida and Magnum where there is  a certain noticeable amount of people  complaining. All the other player are doing fine with railgun, so you might do something wrong.

The developer heard you well (enough) your name and the rail gun buff was mentioned By The great Hazel himself in the First Raw Livestream (a week ago). If you missed it open the spoiler below:

 

 

Therefore before complaining make sure you do your due diligence to listen to what the other people (CM, Mod and players) are telling you and read the wiki.

I guess so, I've Prodigi at 42% and they cut down more than 50% of my health when I don't use double armor.

Railgun's alt is extremely powerful.

 

But as always; the standard situation is drugged... always drug, cancel out the other's drugs.

Aslong as you use drugs and the other doesn't you will win 742% of the time.

 

Remember to drug and the Railers won't get you.

 

Drug...

Although it's my most used gun (mistakenly) I've never found it to be effective in non-format battles, explains my .61 K/D lol, maybe I'm just garbage, who knows?

No, rail is just bad for non-pro battles, unless you have high calibre and sit back and camp with DD.

Every shot must be with double damage to make rail do good in non-pro, because people have protections.

 

See if you can get ricochet m2 with m1 alteration in sale, thats very good for non-pro.

At his rank the proctections are not that common 

So the alt is not a must but DD is

but this will change very fast when approaching M3 ranks

 

Agreed , it is a beast , If you know how to use it properly

I find it to be the other way round. Rail is kind of useless in a Poly CP with supplies turned off, but it's good in normal battles with double damage enabled...

Well if he camps there he can do well by killing the ones who come to cap the point

Do you guys think it's better with viking or hornet? I'm using wasp with full MU's currently and I'm quite disappointed, I get flipped every half second, the acceleration is garbage, but I also don't want to buy a m2 hornet since I already bought an m2 wasp... I'm definitely getting an m2 viking though, because viking is the best hull in general.

Shooting from Railgun is like sneezing, except that in one you have to avoid doing that on others.  :lol:

Wow , nice comparison

I bought 1000 DA in the sale when they were 25 crystals. First time I've ever bought supplies but that's how the game is.

You are a Legend why did you buy ?

You can get it by Misiion chain& Containers

Yeah that sucks, that's another part of your income gone up into something that gets used up and never returns again.

I have some stock left but I don't earn enough trough missions and containers to break even.

Well I initially thought the same but after some time it will only be enough if you finish 3 missions a day. I don't do missions frequently because I don't like doing them. I am depleting my stock of supplies so I will need to buy supplies in the long run. On the other hand I use Shaft and Magnum a lot too.. those turrets are DD - addicts; being high damage output per shot.

 

When drones arrive, I will stop my microupgrading and focus on getting crystals for consumables consumables consumables until it probably gets boring enough to make me leave my main account and start playing the game trough the mid rank alts. Because it sucks to be a Legend and it sucks to use supplies from the moment you spawn.

 

There's one other way to get around the drugs or atleast limit yourself to Double Armor only: Isida. The thing is massively overpowered in terms of XP-gaining except in huge maps. All you need to do is to heal team mates while staying alive as long as possible. Which isn't that hard to do if you know how to drive and don't get in the way. in CTF and CP, It is passive gameplay to the max; teammates need to do the killing, you're only there to buzz around and farming XP out of cluttered spots full of teammates in the process. You will see your DD stock increase aswell.

 

I gain almost twice the XP per hour with Isida compared to any other turret while I use the least amount of double damage out of all turrets.
