Fractionalizer

The Fractionalizer is a Tier 4 Tank that upgrades from the Overseer at level 45.

Design
The Fractionalizer looks like the Overseer, but with black and white spawners. The white spawner spawns drones with black dots, and the black spawner spawns drones with white dots.

Technical
The Fractionalizer is a drone tank, like the Director, meaning it controls drones instead of shooting bullets.

The Fractionalizer’s drones acts the same as other drones, attracting to the mouse cursor while firing, but behave differently when repelling. When you repel, the white drones will be repelled away while the black drones will not, instead, attracting to the cursor.

It can control a maximum of 8 total drones; 4 of each color. The Fractionalizer's drones are average in size and power.

As the Fractionalizer
Utilizing the Fractionalizer's unique ability to control its drones in two groups is key to maximizing its strengths.
 * When pursuing an enemy, especially one off-screen, use the repel function, as it will only send half the drones out, allowing the other half to defend you.
 * Use the repel function when attacking to defend yourself from sneak attacks.

Against the Fractionalizer

 * Attack the Fractionalizer with caution even when it’s distracted, as it may still have drones defending it.
 * If you are in a team gamemode, get a teammate because the Fractionalizer doesn’t do well against multiple enemies from different directions, especially if they are bullet spammers. Try to acquire the element of surprise, because a pro using this tank is not to be underestimated.

History

 * The Fractionalizer was added to the game on October 27, 2020.

Trivia

 * Some of its branches are not named after fractions, rather being named after types of numbers.
 * looks and acts very similar to these number-Fractionalizers but is not a drone tank.
 * The Fractionalizer's drones being designated either Yin or Yang is based on the Chinese philosophy of yin-yang.
