Garage description:

 

Medium-range turret. Can randomly deal increased damage. Universal weapon with fast reload.

Legendary tank turret, made widely popular by how affordable and simple to maintain it is. Install it on a fast hull and slide between shocked enemies, as you destroy each unwieldy heavy tank one by one. It’s good to remember that damage of this turret drops depending on the distance from the target, and for such occasions payload of the turret has high-explosive rounds, effective at any distance. So far no mechanic has managed to load the rounds into the mechanism properly. Because of that, each time tanker fires a shot, it’s impossible to know which round will be used, but on the other hand tanker’s enemies won’t know either when a huge surprise hits them from far away.

I got smoky m2 a few days ago, couldn't be happier about it, its my new favorite weapon.  So funny to watch people scramble when they start getting hit with it and have no idea which way to run :)

I don't like smoky's crit hit

[Theawesomecooldude 108]

I don't know if its just my issues with smoky m1, but I personally don't like how low the damage is. CRITS are fun. But is smoky m2 actually worth getting? I'm not sure if I want to, but the huge difference between the 2 might sway me.

[r_DidYouKnowThat0 1,662]

When I'm feeling down, I use Smoky.

 Critical hits make me feel lucky.

Ugliest but one of the most dangerous weapons.

To give you an idea how good m2 is, I never used smoky m1... I bought it but hated it and couldn't win games with it, but I kept seeing high rankers with smokies killing everybody so I tried out m2 and m3 on the test server and WOW what a difference.  I could hang with all the m3's on test server with smoky m2 and have a high d/l so I went ahead and got it after alot of testing and I'm doing great with it.

Does M1 Smoky work in Lieutenant ranks? I've been using a lot of Smoky/Mammoth and I play Polygon DM's the most. However, sometimes when I use it against Lieutenants it is hard to get kills. M2 Smoky unlocks at a high rank, and I heard M2/M3 is very OP.

[r_DidYouKnowThat0 1,662]

Smoky has been completely OP: reason

 

Its critical hit can spread around! If you hit one opponent, it'll move to another, if they're touching each other! So Thunder is Useless! Thunder needs more power and NEEDS MORE RELOAD SPEED!

Thunder is already strong. Reason why the buys aren't that worth it is because of the damage increase. M0-M1, there is too big of an increase. So big in fact that M2-M3 aren't that worth it in price. Reason why Thunder doesn't seems strong is because everyone has paints against it. . . .without paints Thunder is deadly.

 

I doubt Smoky's Critical spreads. . .does it? :blink:  Or is that just a joke.

 

Smoky is great with Viking or Mammoth. I tried it out on Wasp again and it does take practice to master.    :lol:

Smoky's critical hit doesn't spread trough multiple tanks.

Well, your wrong there.  Thunder m2 is a huge upgrade from m1.  I was skeptical at your rank as well, but was advised by higher ranks to get it and its awesome because not only does it have more average damage, it reloads much faster than m1.  If I'm facing a m1 head on and we are shooting each other I can hit him 3 times in the same time he only hits me 2.

 

You are right about thunder being strong minus the paints.  The problem is that SO many paints have thunder protection and many have wayy too much protection.  There are so many Emerald paints in the higher ranks its rediculous.  Good luck killing a viking mammoth or titan with Emerald paint on.

I hate this gun; the critical hit is nice though.

[r_DidYouKnowThat0 1,662]

On the open field it's nice. Though I hate it when I shoot a tank a bunch of times and then he turns a sharp corner and I lost him. . .all them shots. . ..wasted. . . .Love it when an enemy Isida is locked onto me and I one-shot him with critical though. :lol:  Health means nothing to a Critical shot..  ... more like a Snipe.

It's easy to kill-steal with it though.
