Recorder

Recorder is a Tier 5 tank that branches from Logger, Furnace and Giga Trapper at level 60. It is one of the more powerful trapper tanks.

Design
Recorder has a large trap launcher that looks like a mixture between Logger and Giga Trapper. The base is as wide as the tank itself, and the end is nearly twice the width. There is a barely noticeable widening as the barrel goes out towards the end.

Technical
Recorder has one of the highest DPS of any tanks, with a fully upgraded trap dealing significant damage to bosses and quickly killing any AI unless distracted. It also has a high reload and, like most trapper tanks, has high penetration and damage.

As the Recorder

 * As was already discussed in this article, Recorder is quite strong against AI and bosses due to their strictly frontal attacks.
 * In fact, even Vanguard's strong frontal attack stands no chance against Recorder.
 * However, stay clear of drones, probes, and minions, as they can outflank your powerful defenses.
 * It is not an issue attacking even the Army Sentries, as your traps will decimate their forces.
 * Also recommended to use a build with max movement speed and no bullet speed.

Against the Recorder

 * Drone tanks or minion tanks are very effective, as long as you stay far away from the traps and the Recorder is not focused on you.
 * Auto-fire off Underseer tanks, like normal, are highly effective and usually overwhelm the Recorder.
 * Use more than one tank to outflank it or try to attract a boss, then leave the boss's FoV so the boss will focus on the Recorder.
