The Wrecker is a Tier 4 tank conceptualized by Onett4smash and contributed to by Raspbelle as part of the Defend the Center game mode. It upgrades from the Smasher and Swinger at level 45.
Design[]
The Wrecker has a body similar to the Mega Smasher's, having a large hexagon surrounding the main body. The Wrecker also has a Grappling Gun attached to the top.
Technical[]
The Wrecker is, by default, extremely slow. However, upon attaching to an enemy, it will swing around them and build momentum. The length of the grappling line cannot be changed when attached to an enemy. Clicking again releases the hook and flings the Wrecker forward at great speeds. Attaching to an enemy farther away will result in greater momentum generation. The damage the Wrecker deals to enemies depends on its speed. Whatever the Wrecker hits will be flung back if it survives the hit. The momentum generated by swings is not increased by Movement Speed upgrades.
The Wrecker has the same upgrades as other Smasher-branch tanks, lacking any bullet-related upgrades, except for Grapple Time (the Grappler's replacement for Bullet Penetration). The Wrecker's grappling hook deals no damage to enemies, allowing it to attach to and swing off weak enemies like Squares.
The Wrecker can detect cloaked enemies.
Strategy[]
- The Wrecker needs to swing off enemies to fling itself at other enemies and deal more damage.
- Attaching to a far-away enemy will result in more momentum generation.
- The release of the grappling hook has to be timed well to aim the Wrecker at a favorable angle. The angle of the Wrecker can be slightly controlled by moving after swinging off, made easier with the Movement Speed stat.
- Upgrading the Grapple Time stat gives the Wrecker more time to build momentum.
- The Wrecker can chain swings by grappling onto enemies in the middle of a swing-off. This is very challenging as the Wrecker would be moving at high speeds, but can lead to very high momentum and damage.
- Skilled Wreckers can opt to ignore upgrading Movement Speed entirely and focus on maximizing their damage and health.
