Tachankin is dead, long live the new Tachankin. Rainbow Six: Siege has received major changes as part of the comprehensive Shadow Legacy update, which, in addition to the introduction of new operators, has introduced a rework of the old ones.
Many players have long dreamed of reworking Lord Tachanka, in anticipation of which the hero has already turned into a meme. And finally, they made it much better.
Main weapon change
Ubisoft has done a lot of work on Tachankin to make it more relevant to the game.
Why hasn't he been chosen before? Because of the need to stay in one place. In a game where this is not possible at all, a character with a deployable machine gun becomes a kind of suicide bomber. God forbid, if you manage to hook or kill someone. Most often, however, it turns out the opposite - Tachankin dies without even seeing anyone.
Now he will no longer stand still with a machine gun - he will go with him. Disc machine gun DP-27 has now become main weaponwhich can be used and modify if desired. This, coupled with heavy armor and low speed, makes him a tank, which clamps a certain point with fire to suppress, from where the enemy cannot get out.
The weapon itself stands out for its large magazine size and low rate of fire. This allows the operative, in case of emergency, quickly organize firing pointsand projectile launch sites, which probably use Ash, Hibana, Kali and many others.
Tachankin's arsenal now looks like this:
- DP-27. The main weapon in the form light machine gun.
- 9x19VSN. Submachine gun that can substitute DP-27
- PMM. Pistol with good damage.
- GSH-18. PMM replacement.
- Prickly wire. Standard protective equipment.
- Proximity sensor. It will go well with "hype».
DP-27 - the weapon of a true defender, which is Tachankin. With his ability change quickly environment, as well as good damage, this operative will make the assault team think twicebefore attacking.
Adding a launcher
Since the machine gun has become portable and is no longer deployable, Tachankin it was necessary to add something that would correspond not only to his role (he is in defenders), but also hisexplosive» character. So, in his arsenal appeared a launcher called "Buzz". The total number of shells is ten, and the magazine holds only five.
The new device is an excellent solution for two tasks: defense и attacks. It's all about the shells - they have Tachankin not broken, but incendiary. And not simple, but с ricochet.
The grenade launcher turned out to be quite simple, so with it easy to learn how to manage. With a certain skill, you can kill the enemy not with a machine gun, not with a pistol, and not even with a grenade - "Shumikha" with her incendiary cartridges, she will do everything herself.
The maximum effectiveness of the grenade launcher is manifested in defense. They can prevent the enemy from getting closer to the object that is guarded, as well as inflict damage, and quite a lot.
Reloading a weapon slow - one shell at a time, so the operative better sit back some time until everything is done.
Unique property
The main thing that this operative can please is the ability to get to his feet in case of a critical wound. So, in addition to being strong in body and spirit Tachankin can do another agent R6 — Zofia.
The Shadow Legacy update, which appeared on September 10, continues to delight Rainbow fans with the development of the game. complete change Tachankin - one of those things that everyone was waiting for and which was received extremely positively. On the test server, interestingly, you can already evaluate the new Tachankin and understand how much better it became to play with him before entering a regular server and raising the MMR rating.
