Isida - Nerf this stupid turret

[HighwindsGDN 30]

Isida needs to be nerfed.  Due to all the hulls being much faster now, the isidas on small hulls are the cheapest thing in the game.  They were already OP before the physics update but now that they can get to you before you can kill them... forget about it.  I can't tell you how many times a group of isidas comes into games and takes them over.  It happens almost every game I'm in now and I can't stand it.  Its ruining the game.  At least when other turrets were OP they were at least GUNS.. It IS a tank game.  The stupid healing nurse turret that is beyond boring to use should not be the most OP gun in the game.  JC tanki

Then why don't You get the op gun, be op urself?

[SuperNick95 5,312]

What about freeze? It costs nothing and it's the most effective weapon. 

I talked with today, he told me that some guns are definitely unbalanced and need further fixing.

He's a fieldmarshal

By that rank you have mastered a combo so suddenly switching might be bad

no, i have almost all weapons m3... if you are skilled enough its easy ^_^

[ATHENA123 56]

Oh

Lol

[evil.kinevil_forum 13]

Everyone in tanki acknowledges that if two isidas join a ctf on same team....your screwed. Auto aim, self-healing , AND healing, and attack? What was tanki thinking. That vodka must have been extra strong the night they thought of this turret.

I am glad about the further fixing though. Freeze still seems like it has the same freeze time as before physics. Thunder m3 needs to be put up in damage a bit. Goes on.

Exactly. I used to hate Twins M2, so I decided to buy it myself and now, I use it all the time

Lol, right ok try to kill a isida m3 with your firebird.... good luck.  Isidas are getting like the highest DLs and all the flags in the game now.  Your either blind or a isida user if you don't see it. 

 

I will say that if I get Irbis or Rock and use Titan/Smoky M3 i will probably own the isidas when they come at me, but that won't stop them from stealing flags from my team and healing themselves on all my teammates while they fly away back to their base.

 

Then why don't You get the op gun, be op urself?

I obviously have it at m3....  its so cheap to use.  I don't use it because its borrrrrring... this IS a tank game right?  So why would I use something thats not even close to a gun, its supposed to be for healing other tanks not a death machine that cant be killed.

 

Exactly. I used to hate Twins M2, so I decided to buy it myself and now, I use it all the time

Hahah, NOW you use twins m2?  Sorry my friend you're a little late to the party.

I got it when I ranked to Lt Colonel... Not sure what you mean.

I mean you use it after it got nerfed to nothing?  Its one of worst guns now

It's one of the worst guns now? Then how come I can easily win duels against Thunder/Mammoths and Smoky/Mammoths?

 

Edit: If there's any weapon that got nerfed down to nothing, it would be Freeze. Frozen tanks thaw out so quickly now, and that only makes M2/M3 Firebird even more OP compared to M2/M3 Freeze

@Infected: Nah. You got it wrong dude. The Freeze effect is still its Freeze effect. I take back what I said what it being nerfed. And due to Freeze's huge supply of ammunition, you shouldn't have a problem with it unless you lag or something. :) I still use it from time to time. Although I adore my new Firebird.

 

@Highwinds: I find Isidas to be ok when not on Drugs, but on drugs they do seem to be OP. They should be adjusted.

 

@Doughnut: No dude. Thunder is fine. All you're doing if you raise the damage is rendering paints useless or making it OP. Look, so what if there are paints out there? Each Tank chose to use that paint. There are other paints, Savannah, Needle, ZEUS, Prodigi, Electra, Rustle, etc. Just because people choose to use a paint they think benefits them best doesn't make changes to any gun.

 

People like Fatal and others have proven that Thunder is still very strong against paints. If anything, M1 Thunder should be NERFED. Thunder has already proven itself as one of the deadliest guns out there. No need to make it even stronger.

 

Even I plan on getting Thunder to M3 if I can. Perhaps it will be my next M3, if it goes on sale and I'm still a Brigadier. :D

Exactly why I use Isida. I always find Fire OP, though, so I got it on my alt. People are always going to have one turret they find invincible, but I do agree there need to be a few more tweaks, and it seems like Tanki is aware of that.

[r_ADITYA980 45]

lol its not OP its just made for healing if u think i m wrong take isida in a battle and after the battle see ur dl it wont go above 1

[r_DidYouKnowThat0 1,662]

@Aditya: Obviously you do not know what drugs are. :o And yes I know you may have a higher account. ^_^

 

Isida on Drugs is so OP. Even if it's just one drug. It helps that turret much more than any other . . . :mellow:

 

Look, if it has a DP, not only can it inflict massive damage, but the healing is doubled. That is very important. Itends up healing like what, 90 hp + per second? That's insane! Not to mention the dam DA.

 

If it has even one DA on, do notice that the healing can be considered doubled since your damage is halved. It can survive longer, and kill more.

 

And for the Nitro, it can catch up to the enemy quicker, thus killing it, and regaining Health.

 

And not to mention even without drugs, Isida can still be used as a killing-machine. You just need to switch strategies. ;) I was an Isida user in my Lieutenant days. . . .so I know how to use that Turret too.

 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

@HighWindsGDN: Perhaps it's not something to get so upset about that another topic needs to be made. . .

 

As SuperNick95 said, Devs are going to still tweak around some things. . .which means more things are going to be nerfed probably. . . . including innocent Hulls/Turrets. . .which will possibly screw up my Garage. . . again . .. 'cause Devs don't really mind. . .just look at Mammoth.

 

But moving on, isn't an update planned whereas you can block certain Hulls from entering the battle? You can simply block out Isidas/Freeze, etc. . . . :P

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

(edit) and agreed with HighWinds, the short range it has doesn't really matter anymore. . . .the hulls these days are very fast. And once you tag you, it's tough to shake them off. . .Even if I do take sharp turns and crap. Either Mine'em or Kill'em. . . . .. or just jump off a cliff. Lol.

Isida is only good for some maps, and for those maps, it's quite powerful. If you weaken it to where is average on those maps that it's good on, you make it good for nothing.

[r_DidYouKnowThat0 1,662]

@Above: Supposed to be for healing. Not killing.

 

Right now it's too easy to use it for killing. I've seen isidas run past my injured tank trying to kill instead of heal. . . gets me ticked off.

[LaserShark 2,095]

@Above: Supposed to be for healing. Not killing.

 

Where in the description of it does it say "This ain't supposed to be used for killing"?

[r_DidYouKnowThat0 1,662]

Doesn't have to be. It's supposed to be a healing gun. The combined ability of killing + healing with drugs on is just horrendous. But no need to fear, Devs are aware. ;)

 

Isida without drugs is fine. . just the drugs make it OP. :ph34r:

[LaserShark 2,095]

Doesn't have to be. It's supposed to be a healing gun.

Then why don't we take the freezing away from Freeze, the burning away from Firebird, the splash damage away from Thunder, etc?

[r_DidYouKnowThat0 1,662]

@Laser: 'Cause it's in the description. :lol:

[LaserShark 2,095]

@Laser: 'Cause it's in the description. :lol:

And so is all of Isidas capabilities, so they must all stay. :D
