Swat Van Gunner
Description
The Swat Van Gunner (Special weapons and tactics Van Gunner) is a high health unit spawned by the Enforcer tower at Level 7B. It is summoned using the SWAT Van ability which has a cooldown of 45 seconds.
The Swat Van appears from the exit and drives quickly until it reaches the entrance. While doing so, it will slow down to fire at any enemy in its range, dealing single target damage. It can detect Hidden enemies with this attack. It can collide with enemies, which causes it to deal collision damage. Once it is destroyed, it is meant to cause an explosion that deals damage to enemies in its explosion radius, though this does not appear to work currently.
Appearance
The Swat Van Gunner is a large, black armored van with a few grey handlebars, orange headlights, yellow lights at the top and a few red and blue lights. It has a few entirely black windows on the front and sides. On the side of the van, a logo can be seen. An unmanned machine gun is mounted at the top of the vehicle.
Strategy
- As the Swat Van Gunner is an ability unit, it can be saved to help out on specific tough waves.
- Its machine gun helps to clear the pathway of any weaker enemies as it drives onto the path, preserving health for collision damage or tanking enemy attacks.
- Its high health and ranged attack means it can be used against single high-hp enemies, while its explosion can help out against hordes of weaker enemies.
- On multi-laned maps, the Swat Van Gunners will go down a random lane.
- The Swat Van Gunner can deal full collision damage to enemies with defense, like Molten Mech or Frost Hero.
- While the Swat Van Gunner can deal full collision damage to enemies with defense, the damage from its gun is reduced.
- The Swat Van Gunner can be stacked onto each other through ability timing, leading to a huge cluster vans together which deal extreme damage when they combine their collision damage on one enemy.
- With 5 Level 7B Enforcers, one cycle of abilities could produce 10 Swat Van Gunners, which have a combined health of 15,000 which can take out most late game enemies in one hit.
- The Swat Van Gunner's machine gun can detect Hidden enemies, but they cannot hit Flying or Lead enemies.
- The Swat Van Gunner is not affected by any buff or debuff.
