Yup, as discussed above by my colleague @Hate, the anti—power-leveling system is there in place to prevent players from power-leveling in battles (which is basically trying to rapidly obtain as much EXP/score with as little effort as possible (e.g. an Isida healing a self-damaging Thunder teammate who's continuously shooting at a wall), and within the least amount of play time possible (as mentioned earlier in this thread)), and contrary to the popular belief, the recent changes to it are definitely going to benefit the gameplay. ;)

By that definition, spawn killing is also power leveling but why is legal?

Spawn killing occurs in natural game play, there is no reason why it should be punishable. If you wish to discuss this with a battle mod you can do so here: Ask a Battle Mod

The difference is that no one is allowing you to kill them just because you want to. The team might be helpless and might even end up being spawn killed but first it isn't only you who is gaining the experience, your fellow teammates are all trying to get the kills and lastly, the other team isn't going into a wall, shooting itself so you can finish them off easily. They are fighting back or at least trying to even if it might not do that much of a difference. 

 

Long story short...when there is an agreement between you and another player is when it can be considered as power-leveling. You don't just expect to go into a MM battle or even a pro battle and tell your teammate to go all take Thunder and shoot the wall so you can heal them and gain experience from it, will you? Well, maybe if you drop them some golds.  :ph34r:

It seems like it would be more sensible to turn that system off in MM battles. It's unlikely you'd be able to find a place to do that without being actually killed by an enemy, and the Vulcan problem is real. I like to go into a battle and find someone to stick with and heal. A Titan-Vulcan fits perfectly, if you could actually get score from that.

Yeah in MM battles it is unlikely for it to happen not to mention that the battles don't even last that long and in some cases, the enemy team might even capture more quickly and finish the entire battle in 3 minutes. 

 

As for Isida, unfortunately we no longer get paid for the work we do by being rewarded with a score. Guess, we gotta look and find a new job.  :lol:

And, of course, it's not even something you can put in I&S and hope someone thinks about it  -_-

 

Yeah... I really like being a personal Isida though...

Why the next upgrade of my Saboteur drone give absolutely nothing.  My drone is at 5/20 progress right now and next upgrade that cost 26360 cry indicate the following:

 

Drone Recharge Time:      40.0     -    40.0

Number of mines:                3      +0     3

Mine activation duration:     1.6   -0.0   1.6

 

and it will take 5d 11h to get nothing.  

 

What is happening here?

The saboteur drone gets an extra mine for every two upgrades, you can see more information here: Micro Upgrades of Drones

 

How can I check and see how many days of premium I have left?

 

How do I know how many days of premium I won in Challenges?

Garage > Special > Premium Account, there you will see the time left in the top right corner.

---

 

Challenges give 1 day of premium, there are a total of 3 tiers which give Premium time which means that after 50 tiers you will have attained 3 days of Premium.

The product kits in the "Shop" will they get updated and replaced soon? I see every kit there. But I don't see any kit which has Thunder M3 on it. I want to buy a kit in the "Shop" with thunder m3 but there is none there, i did see them before tho.

There are currently numerous M3 tank kits available for purchase in the game's Shop which contain Thunder M3, though you do not see them from your 'iMoneyMaker' account due to the fact that you already own all of the items that those kits offer (the turret (in this case Thunder M3), hull, paint, and protection module). Seeing there's no point in you wanting to purchase something that you already own, it makes me believe you'd like to purchase it on different account, so it's best if you open the game's Shop from there and re-check the desired kits' availability.

Nuuu, Cuz I have got all M3 Guns, So why do I still have kits such as Medic, and many others ones as well in the shop when I already have them. :D

Simply because you do not already own all of the items (the turret, hull, paint, and protection module) that those M3 tank kits contain.

Many players experience issues with later versions of Chrome, your best option is to use the official client or standalone Flash. More info: https://en.tankiwiki.com/Entering_the_game

FYI: Clearing your history has no impact on performance, as you and I mentioned its most likely a Chrome issue.

Tanki's time is always UTC. So your premium account will expire 21:38 UTC.

Somebody recommended Chrome to me on this very thread after I experienced similar lags in Client and asked here for help.

So I asked this question a year ago but i thinks its changed since now, but my question is:

 

What is the order of kits that are released, I'm talking about product kits

 

The reason I want to know the updated version is to time my crystal upgrades to these kits

Same as before mate. They rotate randomly and no one knows what kits come next when the current ones expire. Check this topic for more details about the kits since it is been updated: Product Kits.

[mr.bryant 36]

Dang it, cuz like a year or 2 there was an order, did they change it?

 

Also what are the odds for certain kits appearing, specifically if you could tell me when gunslinger will happen that'd be nice
