Anticipating the tesla turret

[evlunicorn 13]

What do you think of the new turret?

Answer in the poll!

[yellowghetto 3,206]

This topic's poll needs the first option. I don't care, it is going to be game-breaking.

There are better things to be done to the game than adding a new turret. gauss and Ares are more than enough for now. But since Tesla’s a thing now let’s hope it doesn’t ruin gameplay like drones do and is given timely Nerfs/buffs after it is released.

they'll nerf rfm and gauss while bringing out tesla .prolly make it OP too ,so uk people buy it more hence getting maximum profit

We all know that's not gonna be the case

It will be a melee turret like Firebird, Freeze and Isida. So more for players that like getting into the thick of things. The difference and novelty is the 2 shooting mode of the turret.

1/ Arcade mode - very similar to isida, but it will be like a spark rather than a long sucking isida beam.

2/ Power-up mode - very similar to Ares Overdrive: a deadly plasma projectile ball but without the healing part). It would be funny to mount Tesla and Areas and shot both at the same time  .

I like the design of the turret, way cooler than other Tesla turret that I have seen in other game. Let's wait and see the final color.

View from front (left-side) and view from behind and the Arcade mode shot (right-side).

Power-up mode  - a/ Generate the plasma ball

Power-up mode - b/ Plasma ball traveling away and causing damage to nearby tank (Tesla turret form the side - looks like a Scorpion or crayfish? )

I believe that a tesla mounted on the viking with the overdrive is going to shoot out lightning bolts off your tank, instead of the sky

Since there is a trend of melee range turrets being able to inflict status effects (I consider Isida's healing to be the same as Repair effect), I predict this Tesla turret will have an innate EMP ability that may mimic either of Hunter's effects, but not both.

Well you can’t be sure, it may turn up better than we expected. If not it’s obviously gonna get subjected to a few Nerfs or so. That was the case with the previous ones after they were introduced wasn’t it? Freeze, isida, Vulcan, gauss, etc all were somewhat op after being introduced  and got nerfed later on. I expect the same thing for Tesla.

Sounds like a good idea/guess. But maybe as an Augment (Like Gauss turret Augment), not as a default effect.

I sure hope the ball of lightning isn't a projectile but instead an indicator of charging up to unleash massive streaks of lightning across the map.

That would be OP, it has to die somewhere, like unused plasma ball from the Ricochet or the Twins they disappear with no fuss when they reach a certain distance.

Not if the reload time was long. And it has other disadvantages.

Wouldn't surprise me if this thing will be only available from containers

As a start yes, but later it would be in Tancoins tank kits, and then in the garage as single item, and much later in Crystal tank kit.

[Blutaar 1,904]

Isida on steroids in short

[Sabrytoun_Superman 677]

Honestly, i can't judge without giving it a try

[BigCar 54]

1. It's a turret.

2. It is new.

3. It may or may not destroy tanks.

Will it be tankoins only?

Probably at first yes with bundles. Then later in the garage for crystals, that is how it happens with the introduction of the last turrets,
