Tribute to Smoky's final hours before nerf

[murcielagoes 331]

Final moments of smoky's critical (nearly no difference from normal dmg after SU).
 

Lets be honest, smoky would be thunder's deformed brother after server update

Well that was underwhelming.

[BlackMailer 171]

Tanki wants us to leave the game? Lol.

Love how everything is freaking out over absolutely nothing. 

They couldn't have changed less. The critical damage has been taken down 10 hp (which is hardly anything) and the reload has been increased by less than a tenth of a second yet everyone is acting like it was some wonder weapon that has now become the most useless thing known to man.... 

[r_carlo1234 118]

The "nerf" is very insignificant.

[dogtank_2014 2]

Why all the changes?

 

Thanks Dogtank

 the reload has been increased by less than a tenth of a second

That's actually quite a big deal because of Smoky's short reload time compared to other turrets. Like, a tenth of a second doesn't matter much when you talk about something like the time needed for Shaft to load a full shot, but it's a huge difference when talking about Twins', Rico's or Smoky's reload.

And that's why there was a MU sale sale! hhhhh... :o B) :rolleyes:

[Crip 4,735]

Does this mean that Hammer M3's reload is now faster than Smoky M3's?

[ghost-guns 1,486]

Slow reload is why I switched to ricochet for close combat.

[Tani_S 736]

Does this mean that Hammer M3's reload is now faster than Smoky M3's?

Hammer M3 has a bit over 2 sec. reload (just the shot reload, not the clip reload) and Smoky needs 1.57 sec

totally agree, and we should not forget that smoky m4 reload used to be 1.3, not to mention the critical shot  that was almost double the normal shot

The smoky nerf was so extreme it brought a tanki SWAT team member out of hiding.

Tell that to me again after I just spent 60 k crystals during the sale getting my critical damage up 10 hp. Also the same thing happened at the re balance. This update essentially means those 60k cry have been used to keep my turret how it was. Super frustrating for a nonbuyer.

Imagine the people that had to spend 100k to get their firebird m2 back.

[murcielagoes 331]

People need to realize that every tweak is a significant change to a player that mainly uses that turret/hull, for wasp it was changing speed, twins m3 and below feels a bit sluggish now cause of its reload speed and you think +0.1 sec for smoky is still insignificant, putting an alteration on gives it a slower reload and also a lower damage than thunder with a increase reload speed from its alteration + its still stronger

Each an ever HP and millisecond matters, if it didn't why would the devs even nerf it? Just to show they want to nerf some turrets because they are bored? Moreover, this topic was created before anybody knew how much nerfing would take place.

I have both Rico and Smoky in this practice account and I just played them. M1s.

 

Smoky feels the same to me.

 

Now Rico, it is OP. I'll think twice about joining the blue team in Noise.

 

Rico and Hammer are OP before DD. With DD...

 

Enjoy both for a few weeks. I wish I had Ricos in my primary accounts.

[Jehuti 332]

A battle mod, wiki mod, chat mod, and newspaper mod in one thread. Things are getting interesting. :ph34r: [popcorn.gif]

[smokeyh2 1,512]

Well i use my m4 smoky nearly all the time and i can honestly say in my opinion it's still the best weapon in this game

You notice the nerf at M3+.     Did they even nerf it at M0-M1?

The critical damage has -10 damage points on all M levels. These are the Smoky reload stats changes from M0 to M4 (left to right):
