Let's Discuss Shaft!

[Piety 70]

If there are too many shaft in battle I leave

 

It's a good thing yh game is balanced when it comes to shaft

[Buggati_The_Best 1,233]

If you have 2 or 3 shafts they help a ton I use it all the time and this is why in ctf you provide covering fire for ur teammates and if they get a flag u can kill anyone who fallows him and when I use shaft I usually go for flags

a skilled shaft sometimes value more than the entire team :D

Wikis can be edited by anyone, I don't trust them much. I use the in-game stats for railgun's SPM (8.7) and divide 1 minute for it.

Don't know why you said that, it is Tanki wiki and what i know is that our Community manager is the one who edits it, and the info in it is accurate ;)

Shaft has a massive damage even when it is M0 or M1 it is used to be a sniper weapon and not suggested to stand in frontline as an attacking unit . The weapon is used to kill enemies from extremely long range , the longer the shot loads the more power it has .

But between me and every other player in Tanki Online each weapon has some pros and some cons and I would like to tell you them :  

Pros : - The turret can scare every player on the battlefield even if it doesn't loads it shot it looks like it is loading it's shot .

- You cannot except anything from shaft because you don't know what will be it's next move .

- It has a extremely long rang plus the scoop or sniper mode when turned on .

- The shaft is one of the most powerful weapons in the game when M3 alongside with the railgun too .

- The shaft is also a very bothering weapon due to it's ability to take out most players in shot .

- The Shaft's scoop eye can see through bushes and trees like x-ray mode but not through walls .

- The longer the Shaft's shot loads the greater the damage will be , the max damage is when the loading gauge is fully empty .

- Shaft players are invisible to most players (they hide behind bushes and trees , corners of the maps , behind buildings or high places or cliffs)

- Shaft is a hidden sniper weapon (means that shaft players are mostly the only ones who don't die)

- It is impossible to escape from the aiming of the shaft (only possible when the shaft is not ready to fire)

- shafts are always guarding their territory from nearby players .

- the shaft's bullet can pass through 3 enemies or more max powered shot .

Cons : - The shaft turret spinning speed is slow but not has much as a railgun turret .

- The shaft spinning speed is even more slower when the shot is fully charged (probably because the shaft's laser ball is heavy when it's loading more time)

- a Shaft can miss it's shot if a weapon hit the turret , weapons like smoky , railgun , twins (in close combat) , firebird (from the fire cloud which makes the tank invisible and harder to detect)

- most players know where shafts are camping so they will kill the shaft players first before stealing the flag from the enemy base .

- shaft are making an strange voice when they loading the shot probably from the energy of the shot so nearby players will realize the shaft .

- the shaft has no chance to take on 2 railguns and 2 shafts or smokies by long range , and cannot knock out firebirds , freezes , twins and thunder by 2 of a kind .

:o very good,you have a high account?You know quite more than a regular newbie

A lot of nice points, wouldn't agree with some parts of it but you seem knowledgeable about the turret

[r_energyspy0 10]

Yeah thanks I just using shaft a lot more than usual that's why I am knowing a lot about it

If he has done that he is not a noob ;)

[Piety 70]

If he has done that he is not a noob ;)

L still remember from yesterday, he was on the blue team and he had rustle and he had isida comin to heal once in a while but u know everyone stops a good kill death so I participated lol

[pilgrim143 0]

Should I get shaft or isda?

[Piety 70]

Get shaft m1

[pilgrim143 0]

I meant for m0

[r_DidYouKnowThat0 1,662]

I meant for m0

Shaft is going to be a killer, especially at lower ranks. :o

 

You could get it and be a Kill-hogger.

 

Or you could be an XP/Crystal hogger and get Isida along with a light hull, healing teammates for free points and going for Crystal boxes. After you've accumulated enough Crystals, you could get Shaft to M1 directly. Then build up savings for M2 Shaft. . . . :lol:

[Piety 70]

Shaft m2 will b deadly but if there are 2 enemies at u ur going to be in more trouble than a railgun

[pilgrim143 0]

Thanks for the advice! I think I'll get the Isida first.

[pilgrim143 0]

Thanks for the advice! I think I'll get the Isida first.

[Piety 70]

Shaft is good but not much availability can come with it. With isida u can attack as well as heal players so u can cover 2 fun aspects at the same time

[husto 474]

he is still not a noob ;)

[Piety 70]
