The Crawltipede is a Tier 4 Tank that Branches off of Heat-Sink at Lvl 45.
Design[]
The Crawltipede has the same design as the Heat-Sink but with one major change, it has an extra orange inverted Trapezoid-like Barrel on the back of its first trapezoid-like barrel.
Technical[]
The Crawltipede has the same ability as the Heat-Sink however it goes twice as fast at the cost of a longer cooldown time, which is around 9 seconds, another weakness is your HP is a lot lower compared to normal, this is a downside to the Heat-Sink branch in general.
As the Crawltipede[]
- You are an extra danger to most Drone Users use your added-on speed to easily dodge Drones and Shoot/Ram the main body.
- Watch out for any Pounder/Destroyer Branch Ammo, due to your lower base HP you are an easy one-shot kill to Glass Destroyer Branch tanks.
- Due to the increased Speed, the ram build is more viable.
- Avoid Ramming Smasher Tanks, due to the Base HP nerf you will be outrammed by all Smasher Branched Tanks unless they happen to be Lower HP.
Against the Crawltipede[]
- As a Destroyer Branch/Launcher Branch Tank try to assume where the Crawltipede will go next and try to get a well-placed shot, this should easily slaughter any Glass Crawltipedes.
- As a Drone User keep your Drones near you at all times if you know a Crawltipede is around or make sure your Drones are well-placed before attacking, Ram Crawltipedes can be extremely dangerous despite their less HP.
- Against any Crawltipede you can easily kill them with Ram Damage, use this to kill any foolish Crawltipedes who get too close.
- As any Wide-Spread/Spam Tanks make sure to keep the Crawltipede in sight at all times to avoid it Flanking on you.
- Octo-Tanks can prove an effective-counter against Ram and Bullet Crawltipedes alike, the Bullets in all directions prevent Flanking from all sides forcing Crawltipedes to retreat.
