The Elite Sheath is a elite crasher typed boss that spawns in the nest, it does use auto spin like other elite crashers, which also makes it similar to the Elite Grower.
Design[]
The Elite Sheath looks like other elite crashers with a pink triangle for a base, however with a different weapon set-up, each side has at least 2 Submachine Turrets placed with a far distance apart, on the center of the boss is a Sheath Turret that autospins, similarly to the Elite Sprayer.
The boss autospins similar to other Elite Crashers.
Technical[]
The Elite Sheath has increased power in its Sheath Turret, the Sheath Turret can effectively wipe out tanks with no protection or health/body damage stats, meaning it can shatter glass tanks pretty fast if they stand in the line of fire for too long, the Submachine Gun Turrets are also faced with buffs so players are suggested to team up to kill the boss, The Elite Sheath is fairly slow in movement speed allowing faster tanks to escape quickly with no issues.
Strategy[]
When fighting the Elite Sheath, players should be on the move constantly to prevent getting damaged by the submachine gun turrets, this tip does not apply if there is enough players on the team to completely nullify the boss, if possible players should move in a pattern to avoid the Sheath Turret's line of fire while dodging Submachine Gun bullets, at least 2 bullet spammer or focus fire tanks should be present, along with pounder/launcher branch tanks, bullet spammer/focus fire tanks should fire in front of the pounder/launcher branched tank to effectively protect it from incoming bullet fire, if you are about to die it is suggested to run away while attempting to block bullets with your own ammunition, if you are a rather slow tank, ask for cover from teammates to protect yourself.
Other tanks like Trapper branch and Director Branch can be present to use drones/traps to defend fellow players.
