Tanki devs should have compensated with decreasing the reload time of magnum now that it does less damage. Ya, I noticed magnum isn't the only turret to get nerfed. Rico bounce shots no longer give you status effects, its random. I hardly ever use magnum the reload was always so long and I don't like to camp all day; get bored. I don't they better improve things in tanki, just seems so boring lately.
Dom't fully know how magnum works these days but I think og magnum seemed a lot more practical. Much higher skill bar but also the higher pay off and splash
I have INCENDIARY CORE augment on magnum, before nerf it was op asf, one hit and the enemy was on fire instantly even when i hit him with splash damage and it took a lot hp. Now its kinda hard to kill someone and its annoying when u see how the damage is lil low
Devs are finally switching up the meta - Status Hammers no longer guarantee last shot status effect - Status Ricos no longer guarantee bouncing status effect - Pulsar and Status augs are nefed in general - Magnum splash nerf and status nerf - Striker splash nerf kills RRE - Scorpion missile tracking nerf
@@aster_ope_ Yeah, this is actually a nerf I wish wouldn't have happened, because they removed the only skill-based guaranteed status application method
@@acidize55 agreed, it takes away from what makes these augments remotely skill based lol, similar to how they made status magnum crit based too. before, you could guarantee status application by actually aiming
@@aster_ope_ Nah, that's like saying damage is skill based because you have to hit a target. Sure, but not really. I was saying that Rico had the only skill based status application. Magnum, Gauss, Hammer, Tesla, and Shaft all kind of had "brain dead" applications. You play the turret normally and there's an added bonus that you apply a status when you do. Rico had intent though, you had to play the turret more strategically than normal so that you could get the status off efficiently
I agree with nerf, now you gotta rely on skill and good aim to be great with this turrets and if you wanna be cheesy and killi people with splash that are hiding behind buildings you have to shoot many shots which was probably most annoying feature of magnum. Very good change ! ( Yes vacuum is exception but still nerfed pretty good)
@@Master120 Scorpion spear should be nerfed and I agree with you in this one augment. Other scorpion augments OP and not skill depentand? I disagree, rocket now are slow and their movement (agility) is so bad you can actually dodge them just by moving sideways. Wolf pack is dangerous but you can always hide and they have to face you (see you) to be able launch rockets or shot you with arcade mode. I have played with scorpion and I died many times because I had to peek to aim or shot my target. You dont have to do this with magnum which is super OP itself. Gauss is cheesy but you can always equip protection and again, you can hide and they have to aim at you so you are able to defend yourself. Now tell me how you were able defend yourself against magnum before nerf ? Only choice is tunnel. They could hit you anywhere and you could just cry because you could not even hit them back. Those are reasons it was so toxic. I agree with you tho that long range turrets are very good. But Imo shaft is better than gauss and maybe even scorpion. Hitscan is just super good. Crit shots have good dmg and you can shoot very quick. With rapid fire mode its even better. So aside of spear augment which is now OP I think scorpion is a great turret (definitely above average) but not OP. Btw you can argue freeze is OP because of freeze effect which is super lame or Tesla being turret that do not require skill becauce how it works and how on some maps players just sit in one place trying to kill air and waiting for enemies to come.
@@marekqwerty8963 imo close range turrets should have big damage tho, but saying Scorpion is skill dependent is not that true, most of scorpion i see they're in the same place the whole match, they peek and hide the whole match, Gauss Salvo is so fast that he can peek and hit it almost instantly. My real issue is that Magnum is supposed to be a support turret but ppl expect it to play aggressively(which i do though) while on the other hand Scorpion and Gauss are meant to be Attack turrets but they're mostly camping, they have literally two shot modes while Magnum has only one and it has a huge reload time, Magnum was really useful to kill ppl hiding behind walls or supporting dealing damage to multiple enemies so the team could finish them off. Also players complain about dealing a guaranteed status effect while Gauss salvo also does Guaranteed status but no one is bothered with it, i saw a dude complaining about Magnum vacuum core one shooting medium hulls with double armor, while me a Titan with double armor get one shot by Railgun/Gauss Salvo/Scorpion rockets. Idk if you get my point but ppl complain about Magnum campers when in every match you have 2 - 4 Scorpions in the enemy team camping.
@@vivaHSR still, Railgun with augments can one shot a heavy hull with armor and it's all ok, but Magnum can't one shot a Medium hull with armor because players complain, it's all about hipocrisism.
If they nerfed the range splash damage, the direct hit damage should have been increased. And if they nerfed both damage and splash range, at least decrease the reload time. They did most of the turret-nerfing backassward. So now Scorpion is meta.
They didn't necessarily nerfed it, they just made it that only players with actual skill like I have can use it efficiently. I actually like these changes more, because the damage is more consistent now since the radius of damage got reduced there's a way less chance of getting random 200-300-600 damage, instead the better you aim the more damage you get, which has always been why I loved Magnum. No joke, the first battle I joined with the new changes, I got like 40/8 KD by just running around with hornet and killing tanks 😎
@@kennylannard5517 Which part of 40/8 KD did you not understand?? I was being genuine, I do actually like it more with these changes, I hated how before the damage was so random.
Im glad they havent nerfed rail with shotgun rounds...I always preferred going upfront with rail so this augment fit perfectly and im doing way better in mm one shotting titans/mammoth at close range
Well as a Magnum main i still get 20+/30+ kills per match, so yeah, next step is nerfing Scorpion because they camp even worse than Magnum, they rockets follow you so isn't a skill based turret, maybe nerfing it's range would make em play more aggressively, also should nerf Gauss because they camp as well, and they salvo mode is a guaranteed status so better remove the guaranteed status then.
That frustration you feel at not getting kills is how the rest of us feel about the craptastic matchmaking 😂. They nerfed Hammer to the point it's practically shooting spit balls.
yes a lot of fun sitting in corner and one shot everyone without being exposed yourself -_- so fun to kill fresh accs that are unable to defend effectively.
@@Master120 Bro are you playing this game? You can not do that anymore, it was nerfed like 2 months back, the only augment that was capable of doing that was tornado and you had to spin around just for some rockets to actually hit you, now its not possible.
These days i was first place in a match full of Legend players, me with a Magnum and I'm the 2 star patent, so ye manz have skill issue with Magnum, that's what happens when someone plays Scorpion for a long time and decide to use a skill based turret(no offense though)
Les go, all of you wanted to merf hopper, now your little magnum got nerfed, i have the xt skin for hopper and driver augment but its useless bc of most of you guys, but now you got what you deserved, but i personally think that they should nerf magnum even more
I didn't like og magnum since that was way too skill based compared to every single other turret. I liked the addition of the shot predictor because otherwise no one would use magnum, most of the playerbase wasn't willing to grind up their skill using magnum. I don't however like this change, or at least how much it was nerfed, now its a lot less viable unfortunately, will hardly be of any use trying to hit near players who are hiding unless they are just a one shot and that was one of the main reasons so many people used magnum, it was a hard counter to every other camper.
I've used magnum never camped before,upgraded it hella, just for what? Like people complain about things being op, then those things get nerfed, then when it does people complain on how trash it is and how they can't get no kills. I'm not talking specifically about you but yeah..there's just a big cycle of complaining in Tanki
@@Master120 it goes for every turret, people say magnum, shaft, Vulcan, gauss and all those turrets are op. Then when they gwr nerfed players get angry on how they barely deal damage..I mean I'm not so happy about the big nerf, it coulda been only lightly nerfed instead but I never started to complain that it was getting too op
@@Windrunner. Well thats a point now, lets be honest it was very easy for magnums to dominate or even destroy matches just by using slash damage without any effort. Yes now it will be harder for magnums maybe it will force them to play actively and not camp in back, because it will be harder to direct hit when you are far away. I have played since nerf and matches are better now, I see less magnums and other turrets now start to have more impact in battle and thats what it should be. I now see magnum as support role, dealing dmg to crowded areas etc.
Finally peace with juggernaut🤣
Suggestion: Isidas can no longer heal Juggernaut.
The only way to balance jgr with a camping isida removed now. Mid game
@@Master120 Or healing juggernaut alone with any turret.
@@marekqwerty8963 yes
first tanki nerf im actually happy about
about damn time, now people can't just spam status effect augments and get one every shot

Finally! Last few updates have actually been good!
so did they nerf splash damage the damage it self or both
I already stopped using magnum like weeks ago because of the insane no damage bug.
that good dont use that trash
When will it be done for ricos too?
Mang thank dev for that nerf. I means the user use vaccum core hide somewhere and kills the the other team
Same with all Scorpion and Gauss players, they keep the whole match in the same spot.
