Let's Discuss Shaft!

[NewbieCake 3,067]

I shoud've got Shaft or Thunder M3 instead of nub Isida M3 .-.

[sackpilot 9]

Erm,Yeah, whatever, but you aint seeing nub shafter's here :)

Most of us have invested a lot of time in shaft and aint campers (I dunno about M1 but)

 

Stinger is usually like

( I dont remember his paint)

I cant see why should someone camp with that...

 

 

Kayitsiz is 

And I have seen him to much to know he doesnt camp,

 

Finally, Me, I when still used my shaft ( Ill get back to it when I get it M3)

was like

which with its amount of health I hardly camped with and was mostly on the move .-.

 

Not any of your nub shafters here...

Ok, maybe this isn't the best place to comment on this matter then, my mistake. I have nothing against you. My apologies.

Yeah, I used Shaft-Hunter A LOT when I was Colonel-Major General, I was usually on the move because the laser would give me away and  LOTS of tanks would try finding me.

You forgot me :D

Jk

I doubt I have ever seen you anywhere except on the forums :p

 

Now,yer combo? zD

Anyone else realize people act no differently when you're shafting and there's a laser pointed right at them? The only thing that laser seems to do is give away your position. 

[justin_the_prosurfer 1,116]

Shaft deserves and upgrade in damage atleast to 1 shot hunter , whats the sense of a sniper not being able to 1 shot his victim ? thats more like a long range assult rifle with a scope , 

 

 

here what shaft needs :

 

1) power to 1 shot medium hulls 

2) higher the mod , the dimmer the laser 

 

 

its balance still , i mean : sniper : a trooper who takes down / assassinate / kill his victim in 1 shot & escapes without being detected by hostiles .

i totally agree about the laser thingy , but don't forget that dev's also made shaft stable while shooting and that will give you a good advantage.

in case the laser will be deleted shaft will be my first choice in battles.

now using camouflage paints with shaft wont help you anymore  -_-

TBH, I disagree. Shaft players manage to kill vastly more than they get killed, so I think an upgrade would upset the balance.

[dardayy 493]

Even if shaft players manage to kill more than they get killed, but since the D/L doesn't affect your bonus then whats the use of not getting killed?

Shaft got too much nerfed specially after increasing the armor to the medium range tanks and by adding this laser beam that was not supposed to turn visible to the enemies otherwise everyone can spot where shaft is hiding or to avoid its beam

the only way is to try to hide your laser behind a wall until the opponents' tanks be visible .. however still it carries low damage .. am talking about shaft m4, because may be with low ranks then shaft is good i d k ..

I hope that shaft as well will be moving more accurately when the mouse will be introduced .. 

any developer hears our comments in here ?

Shaft is stronger for high ranks, but opponents are also more skilled.

[BCWoogy 0]

Shaft is amazing, and pretty powerful in low rank battles.

 

I use Shaft M0 - Dictator M0 (not at a high enough rank to upgrade + don't have the money). I always 'active camp' and do really well.

Before the increase in the armor, shaft was able to destroy a dictator with one snipe + 1 arcade shots but now it requires shaft 1 snipe + 2 arcades to take down a dictator or even more

It got lots of nerf, and they were unfair.

Don't worry

Will bring back shaft to its glory :)

He took it from its glory :p

Why should he take it back? xD (He does most of things that happen from Dev team :ph34r:

[NewbieCake 3,067]

Shaft is my 2nd favorite turret. I remember being on WO5 asking the same question: Smoky M2, or Shaft M2, and I ended up getting both :P.

[Thekillerpenguin 1,731]

I hope a 50% sale comes up soon- I really want to get M2 Shaft. It ought to be very good- faster rotation speed, much higher damage, faster reload, and a nice orange color.

 

And I think this is my 2000th post, so yay!

Congrats!

 

Shaft M2 is a really big difference from Shaft M1. I highly recommend you get it.

[Amagi 1,728]

Welp, the devs completely ruined Shaft now, time to leave Tanki. Cya on the other side guys!

[Amagi 1,728]

It's not the mouse controls -_-

The scope of Shaft has been misplaced. I can't aim properly

[kayitsiz 621]

Anybody knows what did happen to shaft!? It moves to one side when I don't push ato anythink...
