The latest update of "Rainbow Six Siege" should be up anytime now and players just can't wait to play the game. It includes a huge upgrade of Tachanka's ranking and a new PvP map for everyone to enjoy. So as players await the update to go live, this article will do a breakdown of everything that's coming in the game.

The New and More Powerful Tachanka in "Rainbow Six Siege"

Tachanka has always been known as the weakest character in "Rainbow Six Siege" so it's not surprising that he is the least picked character in the game. This is possibly the reason why Ubisoft decided to improve his skills. According to the developer, the biggest disadvantage of using Tachanka is his gadgets. "The tradeoff between his turrets's stopping power and his lack of mobility isn't good enough." The developer explained. His opponents can quickly headshot him as soon as they have his location.

So with the new patch, players will have an all improved Tachanka as his turret now comes with a shield that will keep him safe from headshots. Although there is still a chance to hit him with a headshot but the odds are much lower now giving the player a reason to pick him as a character more often than usual. The best to defeat Tachanka now is to destroy his shield which can only be done with careful strategizing. In exchange of the added defense, Tachanka will now have more recoil in their gun and every shot will likely spread out.
