The Overgunner is one of the Tier 4 upgrades from Gunner. It has four small guns at the front that fire rapidly and two drone spawners at the back in the same orientation that Overtrapper's spawners are in. In total, the Overgunner shoots 4 AI controlled Drones and all of them are not controllable. The Overgunner has no upgrades as of now. This tank was made by Toriellabella.

Design[]

The Overgunner features a circular body with four thin guns mounted at the front. The two inner guns are longer than the two outer guns and there is a gap between the two inner guns. Mounted on the back, in 120 degree and 240 degree angles, are two drone spawners.

From Gunner[]

The Overgunner adds two drone spawners on the back.

Technical[]

The Overgunner's main guns behaves identical to how Gunner behaves. Each gun has the same reload time as a Tank and each gun has firing delay. The main difference is that the Overgunner has two additional drone spawners. Each drone is uncontrollable and AI controlled, mainly focusing on Bosses and enemy tanks over Polygons. The spawn rate of these drones are slower than that of Overtrapper's, matching more of how Hybrid's drones spawn. These drones are also not as strong as Hybrid's drones, but the number more than makes up for that. Each spawner may spawn up to two drones, four drones in total.

Strategy[]

  • Strong Against: Slow moving tanks, Smasher branch tanks, Tri-Angle branch tanks, low reload tanks
  • Weak Against: Destroyer branch tanks, Any tank with a high rate of fire

As The Overgunner[]

  • One main weakness of the base Gunner is that you have no real back defense. If you are dealing with multiple enemies, it can be too overwhelming and you can easily die. Dealing with multiple enemies is still a pain as an Overgunner, but the drones may help by targeting enemy tanks for you. If you are dealing with multiple low reload tanks, such as an Annihilator or a Ranger, you can pick them off one by one with some difficulty.
  • Any slow moving Sniper tank with low rate of fire, such as a Predator or a Ranger, you can gun them down with your bullets and your drones. Just be sure that they don't snipe you from afar. It's valuable to have movement speed as this tank because of this.
  • Dealing with tanks such as Sprayer can definitely be a challenge. If possible, be sure to fire from up close, as their bullets will be spread out by the time they get to you. Your bullets are far more focused than theirs, meaning you'll land more hits. Your drones will also deal sizeable damage.
  • An Overgunner can use cheap techniques that a normal Gunner can can use, such as moving your tank back and forth to create a dustcloud of bullets. This is far more effective as an Overgunner since your drones will also pick off your enemies. This can be useful against ramming tanks, such as Spike.
  • Using your bullets as a bullet wall is extremely effective against fast Tri-Angle branch tanks, due to the fact that in order to get to you, they have to go through not only your bullets but your drones.

Against The Overgunner[]

  • If you are a Rocketeer, you can easily fire a rocket past an Overgunner and let the chip damage take them out. Skimmer can also do this as well, although it is harder since the bullet is slower.
  • If you are a Sprayer, be sure to keep your distance. The further away an Overgunner is, the less likely they'll be able to land a hit on you.
  • If you a ramming tank, the addition of drones to the enemy Overgunner will make your approach significantly harder, as they can easily respawn and hit you over and over again. The best thing to do is to catch an Overgunner off guard, such as being extremely fast like a Booster, or using invisibility with a Stalker or a Landmine.
  • Any Factory can create a bullet cloud that is comparable to the Overgunner. If you rush in your minions just right, you can easily defeat an Overgunner.

Trivia[]

  • This tank is meant to be a counterpart to Hybrid.
  • A modified version of this tank was added to Arras:Arras.io.
