This article is about the Overspammer concept by Toriellabella. For the Arras.io concept, see Crop Duster.
The Overspammer is one of the Tier 4 upgrades from Spammer. It features a set of three guns that allow the tank to produce a near-laser-focused stream of Bullets. Mounted upon the back of the Overspammer is a Drone spawner for extra defense. The Overspammer has no upgrades as of now. This tank was created by Toriellabella.
Design[]
The Overspammer features a circular body as a base. It features three guns mounted on the front, each overlapping each other with various lengths. The width of each gun is the same as Tank's cannon. It features a singular drone spawner mounted on the back.
From Spammer[]
Upon upgrading to the Overspammer, a Drone spawner is added onto the back of the tank.
Technical[]
The three Cannons on the front of the tank fire one after the other to create a constant flow of Bullets. The delay that these guns have before firing ensures that each bullet is evenly spaced out, creating a stream of bullets that is only slightly less dense than the stream of bullets that the Streamliner can produce. The singular drone spawner mounted on the back of the tank spawns two drones, each of them orbiting around the tank until an enemy, such as another tank or a polygon approaches, in which case the drone will target them, similarly to how Hybrid's drones operate.
Strategy[]
- Strong Against: Annihilator/Hybrid, Trapper branch tanks, Smasher branch tanks, MultiBox
- Weak Against: Tanks like Glider, dense focus shot tanks, Assassin branch tanks
As the Overspammer[]
- Try to avoid encounters with Skimmer, Rocketeer, and Glider. Instead, focus on Annihilator and Hybrid, as their power mainly comes from the damage of their main singular bullet. If you can weave around them, you can easily defeat them.
- Due to the amount of bullets you are dispensing, Trapper enemies will have their Traps depleted and can be easily defeated. Tri-Trapper and Overtrapper will have a hard time fighting you due to this.
- One branch of tanks you have an entire leg over is the Smasher branch. Spike, while a dangerous threat that can end your day if you're not careful, will get caught by your drones more often than not, and can be gently smacked by your bullets enough for them to die off. Mega Smasher especially will have a hard time against you, since their bigger size makes them a bigger target.
- MultiBox, while usually a dangerous threat to Destroyer branch tanks, poses less of an issue to you due to your focused fire. Just keep firing to deplete a MultiBox's clones and aim at the main tank until their demise. Your auxiliary drones will help you tons here.
Against the Overspammer[]
- A good majority of Destroyer tanks, such as Rocketeer, can utilize their wide bullet (and good aim) to disrupt the stream of bullets in order to land shots on the enemy Overspammer. If you are playing as Hybrid or Annihilator, however, your lack of auxiliary projectiles will land you in hot water, since the enemy Overspammer can easily use their stream to gun you down.
- Tanks such as Triplet will have enough firepower to overcome an Overspammer's stream of bullets. You can use this to your advantage and pummel your way through an Overspammer's bullet stream. Sprayer is just as useful, despite the extra spread of the gun.
- Tanks such as Penta Shot and Spread Shot, while not as focused as Triplet, are sill more than capable of staving off against an Overspammer. Spread Shot will have a much harder time at doing this due to the smaller bullets giving holes in their firing pattern, it's still more than possible to rip through the Overspammer's stream of bullets and to defeat their drones.
- As a Ranger or a Seeker, you can utilize your fast projectile to snipe an Overspammer from far away. Just make sure your bullet lands, because up close you won't have as much luck.
Trivia[]
- During the 2022-2023 redesign era, this tank's spawner setup was redesigned to resemble Hybrid more than Overtrapper.
- This tank is the first tank that I made that upgrades from a Tier 3 tank that I made.
- The Overspammer's name is a portmanteau of Overseer and Spammer.
