Description[]
The Tanker is a support enemy that appears in Molten mode and Badlands II. It functions similarly to the Boomer, though in comparison it has higher health, slower speed and worse debuffs.
It has one ability, where upon death, it will apply a 70% firerate debuff and a 20% range debuff to all towers in a radius of 10, which lasts 10 seconds. Additionally, upon losing 66.67% of its health, it will release toxic gas on the path, though this does not appear to do anything.
Appearance[]
The Tanker has light green skin. It wears red pants with a black belt and brown bandages around its mutated arms. It also has grey hair. As its name suggests, it has multiple tanks on its body, some at the front of its torso and others at the back, held together with chains. Its arms also have multiple tubes going through them. On its head, it also wears a brown gas mask.
Strategy[]
- Killing the Tanker before it gets within range of your towers is the most ideal way to deal with Tanker. Keep in mind that it has quite a long debuff time.
- The DJ Booth allows towers to shoot the Tanker from further away, potentially defeating it before it blows up near your towers.
- It and the Commander can also partially negate the Tanker's debuffs.
- You cannot use the Medic's ability to cleanse towers of the Tanker's debuff.
- Additionally, it is not possible to use any stun immune towers to stop the Tanker from debuffing.
