Tips/Strategies

Solo

It is recommended to keep your distance from a Tank with this ability due to the acid puddles it'll create. Rely on your ammunition and only use melee weapons at close range. It's best to use the bots as distractions while you wear the Tank down from a distance.

Multiplayer

Take turns getting the Tank's attention. The crucial part about beating this Tank is taking turns getting its attention as the rest of the team wears it down with bullets and swift melee attacks. Standard gunfire and molotovs are enough for dealing decent damage. As long as you and your teammates are prepared with ammo and other supplies, beating this Tank should be an easy task.
