In this strategy, you would have to partner up with one of a few other fellow tanks in a teams gamemode to make it work.

You would form your own 'fireteam', and it is you and your fireteam's job to balance the effectiveness of the team.

There should be one of each:

Each tank has a weakness, and your fireteam has to defend you and each other from their weaknesses.
 * Bullets - A destroyer class, the triple shot branch, the Sprayer, a gunner class, the Factory or the Battleship. The bullet tank is responsible for most of the damage dealt
 * Long Range - Pretty much anything that branches off of the Sniper, to scout the area for the fireteam, and possibly kill anyone from their range (except trappers, fuck em)
 * Rammer - Melee class/build tank, to soak up damage for the fireteam and possibly
 * Defender - Trapper class, which will defend the team and also soak up damage

One of the first steps is to follow a tank who perhaps, is on the leaderboard. Just keep following them, and oddly enough, it's smooth sailing from there.
