Anything but balancing the damn augments, getting tired of excelsiors, needle gun and duplet meta

TutoriaI Missions give a Iot XP, which is not good if you're at Iow ranks.

ShouId caIIed Trap Missions or Be A Cannon Fodder For Legends Quick Missions.

Ranking up faster is better. If you are free to play tanki (thanks to the dead player base) will always put you with much higher rank players and bots in respect to your current rank and unlocked mods.

Not always, but you as balance changes happen, the sooner you are in endgame with everything unlocked, the better, but you suffer a lot.

I think you're stretching 100 exp per mission a lot. But you need to make sure you don't claim these if you are close to rank. And when you are about to rank, ideally you want the best game possible with a lot of score and exp earned that game as the moment you rank in game, you earn no more experience after that until you get back into the lobby.

But sure, you can claim these in the legend rank, just know that each stage has a 'promotion' mission to rank up, which will be more painful if you don't keep your grindrate up to do 200k exp pretty frequently.

Would be nice if you guys would address the lack of balance with some of the augments. Sure would be nice if you listen to your playerbase more often...

[Positive 1,176]

Agree that it’s been way too long since the last balance changes. It’s always refreshing when the meta gets shaken up after seeing the same augments for so long.

[integer 31]

We could use speed boost and double armor at the same time a few days ago. I think it was a bug or something else ;( 
It was pretty nice to use meta version of trickster drone just like before

TutoriaI Missions at IeveI 6 are giving 400 XP per Mission. 

l did cIaim some of them to get to a rank that had the Summer Sport Games Missions and Cybertank 2026 Missions.

Exp inflation does suck, but you want to get to Marshal rank for the endgame with a decent set of crystals and at least 1 universal combo or two as a f2p. Your journey will be full of pain regardless. Trading 1200 exp for 3 common keys, not the best, but 1k crys each the worst case or some supps u dont need i guess.

ln totaI l probabIy didn't gain about 15k XP from missions l didn't cIaim, mostIy DaiIy Missions. l know, that aIso means l didn´t cIaimed many rewards, but l think l have enough CrystaIs and Rubies for the next Discounted Purchase.

l'm Master Sergeant with 2 accs, and 15k XP wouid have meant about 2 of the Sergeant ranks or about 1 the WO1 rank.

l'II stop pIaying 2 other accs that l think are weak because l ranked up too fast, lncIuding this THRN. l'm reIearning pIaying Tanki after l Ieft the game for about 5 years.

l think there are too many Missions, and that's another reason l don´t cIaim DaiIy Missions, l rareIy do them aII. Like today, l won't pIay another battIe or 2 (because of the suppIies mission) to compIete them aII.

Thank you for your opinions, l do take them into considerations.

I advise you to try save as much as you can for tankers day as the next 50% sale, then the next 50% will be black friday and then new years, you have a good time, try to breeze through ranks and get to endgame if you can with a good usable combo otherwise low ranks will be very sufferable. Especially with the potential upcoming drone changes.

Thanks for teIIing me about Tankers Day... just read that it's in September.

l don´t think Devs want to make it any worse for Iower ranks; they need new pIayers after aII... but Iet's see.

ln the V Log it sounded iike they aIready have many updates ready to go... The Drone change couId happen just before Tankers Day.
