Tanki Online - Micro UpgradesMicro Upgrades are available to enhance the performance of both your hulls and turrets. The options to enhance hulls are the same with improvements to the protection, hull speed, turning speed, weight and power. The turret enhancement options however differ from turret to turret but in general you can add micro upgrades to damage, reload time, rotation speed and range.
By looking at each of the turrets listed on the left, you can see what micro upgrades are available for each one. Some players conduct micro upgrades as soon as they have sufficient crystals to do so, while others wait until they have enough crystals to buy all of the micro upgrades in a single transaction buy buying the next version in the series. Please note that you can only request one micro upgrade for item at a time. How do I upgrade my tank?To perform micro upgrades, you need to go to your Tanki Online garage where your inventory is displayed
Select the hull, turret or paint for which you want to apply the upgrade to, and select the 'Upgrade' button at the bottom of the information section.
You can now select the micro upgrade you want, providing you have enough crystals available by pressing the appropriate button to the right of each upgrade option. As you hover over the button, the time it takes to complete the upgrade is displayed in the box to the left. When you select the upgrade, the text in that button will change to show you how many more crystals it costs to perform the upgrade immediately. This is a very costly exercise and one that I would strongly discourage.
Once the upgrade is in progress, you can return to the battles if you wish and return to the garage later to perform more upgrades. Each time you upgrade, the cost in crystals increases for the next upgrade, and the time taken to complete the upgrade is longer, with many taking more than seven hours as you get towards completion of the specification of an M0 item. As you progress through the M1, M2 and M3 turrets, upgrades can take days to complete. |
