Let's Discuss Isida!

[AUGU66 95]

I think the damage/self heal needs to be nerfed. Isida is supposed to be used in a supportive, not offensive, role

I agree, even I am an Isida user. Isida is a supportive tank and healing is the main role. However, they boosted the damage and self healing in mid-2015 with reason unknown. I can see some Isidas refuse to heal but try to kill tanks quite often after that update.

[AUGU66 95]

Isida-Viking M4 with drugging 24/7 is just too OP.

Anything with drugging is OP, not only Isida.

[AUGU66 95]

What do you mean by that?

He/she means to roll back the damage and self-healing of Isida back to before the update (boosting) in mid-2015.

 

I have been using Isida 24/7 but I agree that Isida's main role is to heal/save teammate tanks. Tanki somehow boosted the damage and self-healing that makes many Isidas tend to kill rather than heal. I saw too many times that some Isidas prefer to go after enemy tanks to kill but leave teammate tanks to die (got killed). Isida has been ruined.

How to destroy this gun on dd, only 4 anserws flip it, freeze it,use rail or shaft or get distance. :mellow:

Can you flip it, or get distance on small to medium maps, no you can't it moves on cover of it's allyes or opsticles,and it has advantage on basic ramps, so not flippin it there. add prodigi or tundra, no rails on sight. freeze: if the isida moves with team, as a wise one does, its of no use.

I find a isida, who is able to get dd and nitro on, with hunter/viking/hornet indestructable spot in so many maps.

Is it just me, i have to look behind every corner for these annoying, blood sucking, bulldozing peaces of... tecnology :angry:

Every time enemy team has isida and we dont or ours is a tier worse, the game becomes a slaughterhouse.

Buying it on the 1st good deal... even if hate using it, atleast i'll make vulcans happy

Is this just me? ^_^

Lol! If you can't beat em, join em eh? I was in a similar dilemma... I decided against it because the way things are, I think tanki is bound to take notice and rewire isida (I hope). Don't know about you guys, but even with a hornet, I have trouble outrunning the range of an isida on viking. Here's the thing - every short range turret has it's damage reducing in proportion to range. Isida doesn't. I think they need to bring this aspect into the gameplay.

isida is pretty awesome it's ok in deathmatch but it's amazing in TDM, CTF, and CP the best part about it is u can shoot your teammates and HEAL THEM and GET EXP FOR IT if you want a turret for team modes isida is the answer

and if u like DM its good for that too because if u damage enemies u heal yourself

Yes.

Can anyone tell me how to properly wield Isida? I've been playing with Railgun and Smoky a lot and only recently got the "Stinger" kit. Even though it's M2, I still prefer my almost fully upgraded Smoky M1. Some tips, please?

When you are capturing flags attack the enemy so you will self heal and heal your team mates along the way to your base when there are no enemis. When you are not heal the drugging players and pro players in your team. Use double damage whenever possible.

[TG159 734]

Want m3 and then MU to m4. Same plan with Viking.

Also want max taiga paint

[firerey101 67]

i really want m2 isida

[HaloScorpionV2 438]

SOOO OVERPOWERED!!! You're invincible when you are damaging someone. The damage and self healing needs to be nerfed. This turret is supposed to be used as a support weapon, not an offensive, enemy-base-destroying machine!!! In my opinion, its the new *** turret. :angry:

Lol. Just get it urself and enjoy the power xD

[Gigalink 116]

Rico and mines at my rank is my best countermeasure for isida. You can attack it indirectly with the bounce effect, you can use your range, flush them out of hiding spot, and have high dps to kill them fast as long as you have energy. With mines, yo can kill dumb isidas and escape smart ones.

 

 

Of couse, if all else fails. Irbis with M3 Isida M3 Viking/Titan

[TG159 734]

Dream:

M3 Isida

M3 wasp

M3 Viking

Prodigi

Rock

Drugs.

[TG159 734]

How does Isida wasp preform in big maps at gissimo?

[Mistalee 1,337]

Reason of many people using it is cheap and self-healing.

Like he said!, its Self healing too!  :P

[l.Supreme 2,253]

Isida best supportive gun in Tanki :)

[austen_pierce 1,948]

Isn't it the ONLY support gun in Tanki?

 

I guess Vulcan and Thunder qualify. Freeze too for that matter. LOL.. all the second class turrets. Except Hammer, which is a terrible defender and requires a lot of skill and planning for offense.

 

YMMV

[TG159 734]

I want Isida m3 and wasp m3 and prodigy, I would sell my whole garage for that!

[austen_pierce 1,948]

I have resurrected my Vampire_Medic alt, which now sports M1 Wasp and M1 Isida at Sergeant Major thanks to Vampire kit. Got a 22.0 DL at one point this morning on Serpuhov.

 

It's amazing how different gameplay is around WO1 than it is around General-Marshal. It's easier for an experienced player to do well. On the other hand, it's easy to get frustrated with inexperienced teammates.

 

There are also a LOT more maps in play in those lower ranks. I enjoy that. I get sick of the same old Polygon DM and RIo CTF games, with a little Noise, Serpohov, and Sandbox thrown in. I'd almost forgotten about Alexandrovosk, which has vanished from high rank battles. Same for Year 2042, Desert, and dozen others.
