Detriment

The Detriment is a Tier 5 tank that branches from the Hybrid.

Upgrading
The Detriment upgrades from the at level 60

As the Detriment is a Tier 5 tank, it does not upgrade any further.

As the Detriment

 * Attack vertically if you can. The ambush is your friend. Show up and boom, they’re dead. If the initial attack fails, either run away or feign a retreat vertically and let your foe give chase, then go back and shoot them in the face.
 * Do not engage with Mini Swarmer or Cruiser branch tanks. They will quickly outflank you and rapidly chip away at your health.
 * For the same reason, don’t try and passively farm in the Pentagon Nest. Detriment is poor at handling large numbers of crashers.
 * You can very easily farm AI tanks with your one shot bullets.
 * Detriment is amazing at third-partying with its drones and auto turret to aid in stealing kills. Charge right into other people’s fights, grab some score, and run.
 * The auto turret can act like a radar, helping you to detect offscreen targets.
 * The auto turret can be disabled using the R key for more stealth.

Against the Detriment

 * Mini Swarmer and Cruiser branch tanks make a joke out of Destroyers, Detriment included. Just make sure you have sufficient movement speed to dodge its powerful frontal bullet.
 * Don’t try to use a melee or ramming tank on Detriment. It just won’t work, as a hit from just one bullet will send you into full retreat.
 * Stalking a Detriment if you have low movement speed or are poor at dodging is a bad idea as its drones and auto turret will be dealing constant damage. There is also the threat of it turning around and killing you instantly.
 * This tank has very poor persistence chasing abilities, so simply running away is usually a viable option if you can’t reasonably engage.
 * Tanks with shields can shrug off a Detriment’s primary attack.
