Upgrades

This page delves mostly into the base upgrades and what they become by name. For full detail on every individual upgrade, visit their pages, or for a briefer run-down, visit Tiers.

Basic Upgrades
The basic Tank starts out as a circle with just one barrel. When you reach level 15, you can upgrade your tank to become a Twin, Sniper, Machine Gun or Flank Guard. The Twin upgrade adds a second barrel, and increases Bullet Penetration, but slightly reduces damage. The Sniper upgrade increases Bullet Damage and travel distance, as well as zooms out the screen slightly, but greatly reduces your Reload Speed. The Machine Gun upgrade increases your Reload Speed, but slightly decreases your Bullet Damage. The Flank Guard upgrade adds a smaller barrel to your back, which allows you to shoot in two directions, but while shooting their recoil will slow you down.

Further Upgrades
When you reach level 30, you can choose a second upgrade depending on the basic upgrade that you chose. As long as you don't choose the Gunner or Hunter upgrades, you can upgrade again at level 45 (This is due to the fact that Hunter and Gunner do not have any upgrades at level 45).

Twin
Twin can upgrade into Triple Shot, Twin Flank, or Quad Tank. If you choose Triple Shot, your tank’s dual cannons will move out onto the side pointing diagonally, making room for a third cannon in the middle. This upgrade will also lower your tank’s Movement Speed. Triple Shot can then upgrade into Penta Shot, which adds an additional two cannons between the sides and the middle of your tank. This will lower your tank’s Movement Speed even further, however. You can also upgrade to the Triplet, which has 3 cannons still, shoots much faster, has straightened cannons, but does less Bullet Damage. If you choose Twin Flank, your tank will receive an additional two cannons on the back. This will also lower your tank’s Movement Speed. Twin Flank can then upgrade into Octo tank or Triple Twin. Octo Tank will add cannons on all sides of your tank and lower its Movement Speed. Triple Twin will make your tank’s dual cannons face diagonally backwards while adding a new dual cannon in the front. Quad Tank has a cannon on all four sides and also lowers your movement speed. Similar to the Twin Flank, it can upgrade to Octo Tank.

Sniper
Snipers increase your range, field of vision and bullet damage, but decreases your rate of fire. The Sniper can be upgraded into Overseer, Assassin, or Hunter. From the Assassin can be upgraded into Ranger and Stalker. From the Overseer can into Overlord, Manager, Necromancer.

Machine Gun
Machine Gun increases your reload speed, but can only upgrade into the Destroyer or Gunner and do slightly less damage per bullet. The Destroyer reduces your Reload Speed, but increases the Bullet Penetration, Bullet Damage, and size of your bullets. A popular way of using this type of tank is to use the recoil to launch yourself into other tanks when you have fully upgraded your Body Damage and health (Rammer Build). The Destroyer goes into the Hybrid, a mix of Overseer and, yes, Destroyer. The Gunner goes in the opposite direction, shooting fast bullets with minimal recoil out of four cannons. The Gunner relies more on Reload Speed, Bullet Penetration, and Bullet Speed than damage or tank speed. Its bullets are the smallest in the game and so the Gunner often have problems with bigger bullets such as Destroyer's.

Flank Guard
Flank Guard adds a half barrel on the back of the tank. This can be upgraded to Twin Flank, Quad Tank, or Tri-Angle. Then the Tri-Angle can be upgraded into the Fighter and the Booster. The Fighter adds two additional guns on the side and heavily boosts your speed when shooting forward. Booster adds two more guns behind the Booster. Quad Tank doubles the amount of guns and all are full.

Unavailable Upgrades
Arena Closer

When the arena is being closed, the server will spawn multiple Arena Closers to remove all the players and start a new game. The Arena Closer tanks seem to be fully upgraded, without any reduction in speed, strength, or other upgrade side effects. There is no possible way to receive this upgrade in-game.

Mothership (Tank)

Mothership appears only in the Mothership game mode. In the game mode Mothership, one player will be the Mothership for 1 team. There will also be another player for the other team's Mothership. It is level 140. Mothership has all upgrades except regen fully upgraded. The first and second players who joins the server becomes the Mothership. They have 5 minutes to control the Mothership. When the 5 minutes are over, new 2 incomming player will be the Motherships.

Dominator

This tank, like the Arena Closers and the Mothership, is an unavailable "tank". It shoots large destroyer bullets that can instantly kill most enemies. However, its reload is slow, and it can only hit one enemy at a time, allowing large groups to form to kill the destroyer. It has an immense amount of health; more than 3 times an alpha pentagon's mass.
