  • Critical damage decreased from 900-1800 to 700-1700 per second

  • Critical healing decreased from 2000-4000 to 1500-3000

    • The increase in Standard damage changed from +50% to +45%

    • Added a decrease in Range of min damage by -50%

  • (Note) The “Sledgehammer” augment was designed as a close-range modification of the turret. Based on what we have observed, the augment is best paired with a speedy hull and used for charging an enemy. With this fix, the augment should remain relevant after changes to the turret’s balance.

    • The decrease in Standard damage changed from -25% to -28%

    • The decrease in Critical damage changed from -25% to -20%

  • (Note) Booster bonus damage reduction is in line with the current base damage increases for almost all turrets, where Booster plays a key role in increasing efficiency.

  • (Comment) The standard +1 m/s speed bonus when activating the Speed boost supply is not removed. Here and later, only the additional speed bonus that these drones gave above the standard one is removed.

  • No longer grants additional speed boost, only increases maximum speed.

Ok but... maybe add a way to pick multiple modes to get in queue for? 

Say I have missions in TDM, CP and ASL, so I'd be able to select those three modes and play whichever one it sends me to.
Or I really dislike TJR, so I select all modes except TJR.
Or I just really like RGB and CTF and nothing else, so I just wanna play those two.

I think many would find it really helpful.

That's just freaking dumb....

[NikmanGT 4,362]

Nice change on pro battles, if the fund and exp are back, then rank ups are possible again to a much greater extent...

Nerf to Magnum and Thunder, well they deserved a bit, but if the impact is too much, I won't play those turrets again.

Straight up buff to the melee turrets.

Spoiler

Well, cheers to the Tanki Bday discounts.

Not happy with the booster and scout changes

Booster was paired with other turrets whose damage numbers were fine.

What's the point in increasing damage if it just increases it by a small amount, while the enemy's hull's HP remains the same.

Why....

Now the drone won't be as much fun to just zap across the maps, trickster is fine ig, but I don't understand why was this needed for the crisis drone.

[JustBlackWolf 875]

Yeah! Let's increase damage on everything even more! We're not getting enough oneshots and spawnkills already out there are we?

Updated PRO battles

• Lifted restrictions on earning crystals and experience in all PRO battle formats (except Parkour). Feel free to configure your games as you would like!

• Added separate chat channels for different PRO battle formats.

I am glad this is finally being implemented into the game, looks like we will have the old PRO battles back this way.

Not really sure what to think about these drone changes though...

[krokorok 838]

Crits are already incredibly unbearable and you increase crit damage even further on everything xD

It's like when you start to drive. Initially you wouldn't get the boost, only after you've increased the speed to its max. Idk tho that's what I'm getting from it.

Me and some players noticed that MM has been reduced the amount of crystals gained in battles, becouse of this you almost always get more EXP and less Crystals, why din't they inform this in the update notes?

How is max speed going to be achieved if there is no speed boost to propel it

[DaringDeer 656]

My guess for Trickster and Crisis is that your acceleration will no longer be increased for your hull, just the top speed.

This one too. 
I had been thinking it was 750 at M0

Why?

It should be same as before because the important thing on booster is not its strength with turrets but its difference between not using and using it.

To my knowledge at no time for years has the amount of crystals generated in MM been reduced

???????????? Estou jogando muito MM hoje em dia e não notei nenhuma mudança no XP ou Crystals. ainda estou recebendo os mesmos cristais de 3-5k em um dia normal e 8-12k nos finais de semana. 

I noticed why i'm gaining +EXP -Crystals in almost every game, even when this happens your efficiency drops. Try to notice from now on.

[Cod 45]

Why changing boosyer to 20%???

Booster is weak at 30% and Tanki change it to 20%? Where is the logic here did Tanki want all the players to leave or what?

Bruh, then couldn't they have just said that they are removing the acceleration boost? But nooo, they had to slap us with oxymorons. Ugh.

Booster should only be nerfed if the drone itself is out of balance. It shouldn't depend on the balance of several turrets that may or may not be paired with it, and whose parameters may or may not be changed again, as we've seen in the past several months.
