Alterations

Revision as of 13:02, 28 December 2018

Alterations are modifiers that allow a player to alter gameplay features of turrets while keeping them within the overall game's balance. For example, an alteration can weaken one characteristic in favor of strengthening another one.

Important Information

A total of fifty-one alterations are available for purchase at the moment.
Alterations can be purchased for crystals in the Garage.
Alterations for standard items can be equipped with XT skins.
Alterations have a separate setting under Pro Pass battle creation system, instead of being bunched under Micro-upgrades. Now they can be turned on or off independently.
Developing alterations for hulls is not planned (excluding options like equipping XT skins).
You can see alterations of other players equipped in battle by pressing R or V.
XT skins can now be found under Alterations [Only for turrets and hulls that are having XT skins], where a player can equip or unequip them according to their wish. However, they do not affect any features of a hull or turret apart from visual appearance.

General Information

Alterations unlock according to your rank.
Already bought/unlocked alterations won't disappear at any time.
You can equip an alteration or un-equip an alteration and get back to standard settings at any time.
Changing an alteration during a battle will cause self-destructing and a five-minute pause for changing other alterations (just like changing hulls, turrets and other items).
Only 1 alteration can be equipped at any given time.

Obtaining Alterations

Alterations can be obtained in the Garage for crystals as soon as the required rank is reached.

Go to the Garage.
Click on the turret you want to obtain the alteration of.
The menu of the turret will be displayed. Click on the center green box to the right of the screen.
All alterations available to be purchased/equipped will show up.

Alterations

The following tables contain all the current alterations. Some of these alterations modify specific turret's parameters to alter the turret's performances during a battle, leading to an increase or a decrease on a specific parameter's value for a turret, thus modifying that turret's performances, but always remaining in between the overall game balance's boundaries.

In the following tables you will find specific color-codes, as follow:

GREEN TEXT — green text is associated to an increase of a specific parameter's value
RED TEXT — red text is associated to a decrease of a specific parameter's value

In addition to the color-codes, you will also find specific effects' markers, as follow:

— this marker is associated to a positive effect on a turret's performances produced by an alteration
— this marker is associated to a negative effect on a turret's performances produced by an alteration

Berserk	In this special assault mode firing the turret will consume energy faster, but each enemy tank destroyed will re-fill the energy tank.	Destroying an enemy adds 100% to energy Energy used per shot: +100%	200 000

Alterations for Smoky

The damage from critical shots is increased because of the reduced critical hits rate.	Critical damage: +50% Critical chance: -50%	30 000
High-precision aiming system	High-quality barrel and aiming correction mechanism noticeably increases damage. The use of the highly accurate equipment led to increase in reloading time.	Maximum damage: +20% Minimum damage: +50% Critical damage: +20% Reloading: +40%	50 000

Shooting speed regulator	Decreased firing speed allows for the barrels to cool down better, but it also decreases damage. The barrels wind up and down faster. This configuration increases tactical flexibility of the weapon and allows for longer uninterrupted fire.	Barrel startup: -50% Barrel slowdown: -50% Time to overheat: +50% Damage: -25%	140 000

Alterations for Thunder

Reinforced gun carriage	Reinforced turret platform allows turning of the gun horizontally. Because of the monolithic structure of the gun carriage it becomes impossible to lower or raise the gun barrel.	Ability to rotate turret horizontally Fixed angle of elevation: 5 ° Projectile gravitation: -50%	40 000
Mortar	The turret fires mines instead of shells. When hitting a tank the mine explodes, and when it misses — remains at the hit spot, so somebody can go over it and blow it up. Damage from these mine-rounds is less than from regular shells.	Lay mines Maximum damage: -25%	60 000

Alterations for Shaft
