Fattener

 is a Tier 4 Tank that upgrades from Basiception and Auto-Mini Grower at level 45.

Design
The is simply a Mini Grower with a smaller Mini Grower turret on top of it. The turret overall looks to be about half the size of the main tank. The turret's main barrel extends slightly past the circumference of the main body.

Technical
The bullets from both of the 's barrels act identical to Mini Grower's.

As the

 * The can be thought of as a Twini Grower with more focused fire. This focus is actually surprisingly helpful so aiming in the same direction as your turret is recommended.
 * You are essentially a more versatile Trapception. Your bullets are a bit weaker than traps but they fly considerably farther and faster, making the tank easier to use combatively.
 * If you are not going for a record with this tank and a target is getting away, quickly upgrading to Infernoception may be able to finish them off. The acceleration of the flares gives it a bit of an edge versus the decelerating bullets of Mini Growers.





Against the

 * Jump tanks can prevent it from making any real clusters of bullets, removing the main advantage of the branch. The turret will be thrown off by the rapid jump movement and the main tank will likely be unable to keep up, which also scrambles its focus fire.
 * If for some reason you find it overwhelmingly problematic, use the Override. Its drones will distract the turret and as long as you keep them away from you the tank essentially becomes a Mini Grower.
 * Ram Override could work because of how unexpected it is. This also eliminates the need to keep your drones facing away from you but still hitting the tank with them, since your main method of damage would be ramming rather than your drones.





Trivia

 * The Fattener is the only Tier 4 Ception Tank with a proper name.
 * The Feeder is the only Fattener branch that isn't a -ception tank like itself.
