Zap! A flash of electricity, and suddenly your tank is a sitting duck: supplies removed and blocked for several seconds. You've been hit by an Electromagnetic Pulse. If you'd like more information on this powerful effect, read on.
Mechanics
Electromagnetic Pulse (EMP) is a Status Effect applied by certain specialized pieces of equipment. When a tank is affected by an EMP, three things happen:
- All currently-active supply effects are removed:
- Extra supply effects from the Defender, Booster, or Crisis drone are removed:
- All supplies are placed in a cooldown lasting exactly the duration of the EMP.
Some important things to note:
- Even if a supply was previously in a longer cooldown, it can be activated immediately after the EMP.
- Already-planted mines are not affected, though new mines cannot be dropped during the EMP.
- Tanks affected by an EMP will have this symbol above them:
If you received the EMP or were the one that inflicted it, you will also see the text Supplies Removed briefly appear above the affected tanks.
- Battery usage and drone recharge are not interrupted.
Protection
The Juggernaut is immune to all negative status effects.
Electromagnetic Pulses also do not effect tanks wearing the EMP Immunity hull augment, which can be purchased for 4990 (or less, during a sale), or obtained from a Container or Ultra Container, with Epic rarity level.
Name | Description | Effects | |
---|---|---|---|
EMP Immunity![]() 4 990 ![]() |
Makes your tank immune to the effects of Electromagnetic Pulses. This includes Hunter's Overdrive, which will be unable to deactivate your Supplies. | Supplies are not removed by EMP ![]() |
If you attempt to inflict an EMP on an immune tank, you will see the word Immunity briefly appear above them.
What can inflict EMP?
Hunter's Overdrive
The first EMP to appear in the game, this powerful effect is still the most common source of supply deactivation.
- In addition to Stunning nearby opponents, Hunter's overdrive inflicts a 5-second EMP on all enemies within 25 meters.
- The EMP takes effect immediately upon zapping, but the cooldown starts after the Stun, resulting an a total of 8 seconds during which enemies without immunity will have no supplies.
Wasps's Overdrive
This small hull's stinger is a devastating N2 bomb.
- In addition to momentarily Stunning surviving enemies and setting them on fire, Wasp's bomb applies a 3-second EMP to all tanks within its radius.
Additionally, there are currently 3 turret augments that can inflict EMP, which can be obtained in Ultra Containers at the Legendary or Exotic Rarity.
Name | Description | Effects | |
---|---|---|---|
Gauss: Electromagnetic salvo ![]() |
Replaces the standard explosive projectile with an EMP projectile that deactivates any active supplies of enemy tanks hit by the electromagnetic salvo. The projectile loses its splash damage effect in normal shooting mode, and damage is reduced while using the electromagnetic accelerator. However, the projectile travels at a higher speed and recharges much faster. | EMP duration after sniping shot: 5s ![]() EMP radius: 14m ![]() Sniping reload -50% ![]() Sniping damage -25% ![]() Arcade projectile shot speed +50% ![]() Arcade shot splash damage removed ![]() Arcade shot self damage removed ![]() | |
Smoky: EMP Rounds ![]() |
Replacement for the standard cumulative shots with EMP rounds. Critical hits will deal decreased damage but will disable the target's activated supplies. | EMP duration: 5s ![]() Critical damage: -15% ![]() | |
EMP Rounds![]() |
When critical shots hit a tank, they apply the EMP status effect, disabling activated supplies. The effect doesn't last long.*
*The duration of this EMP is by far the longest currently in the game, however. |
EMP Duration: 10s ![]() Critical damage: -30% ![]() Shot warmup time: +20% ![]() |
