The Factory requieres a lot of concentration and control. Its Drones are rather slow, but they are extremely durable. Because of this, the most effective way to use this tank may be as follows:


 * Players should keep their Drones to themselves at all times.
 * When they’re not attacking anyone: Moving with the Drones in a star formation, and keeping 2 drones in front of the tank itself will protect players from incoming projectiles from almost all classes.
 * Hiding their Bullets (and thus their location) from people in front of their tank. (Which can be useful for ambushes).
 * And keeping non Tri-Angle branch glass tanks from boosting in their direction and chasing it.
 * Depending on the build and internet speed — side W/A/S/Ding once every 1-2 seconds may be needed; so as to not let any drones escape formation.
 * When they are in battle: Players should move with their Drones while clicking ahead of them. (This will keep the drones outside of the blue orbit).
 * The resulting bullet stream will enhance their drone shield — by weakening projectiles before they hit the drones.
 * And eventually form a bullet wall (similar to those of bullet rammers) capable of enhancing their moementum by around 50%.
 * It should be noted that the bullet stream makes up for almost 51% of the class total DPS and that it should not be disregarded in combat.
 * Due to its short range, high DPS and complex controls (orbits), the Factory benefits from close range fights the most, as it can use its similar Drone-body speed to simultaneously protect itself and attack at the same time despite its slow Drones.
