Flabbergaster

The  is a tier 5 tank that upgrades from the Spike and the Auto-Smasher at level 60.

Design
The has a Spike body, with a Flank Guard auto turret. The barrels are slightly longer than a true Flank Guard turret like the one on. The 's turret seems to be a Flank Guard version of the normal Auto Turret, like the one found on since the barrels extend past the body.

Technical
The has the same stats as the Spike. It has an upgrade cap of 12, and like the Auto-Smasher, it also has bullet upgrades. The 's auto turret targets the nearest entity with the highest danger value. As is typical, the turret has higher range than you and can target enemies that are not on your screen.

As the

 * Since its turret is a Flank Guard, it has no recoil in any direction. This can help when your turret is firing at the same enemy you are trying to approach.
 * The turret can scope out enemies before you even see them, giving you a heads up if an enemy is coming or where an escaping enemy is going.



Against the

 * Its turret is lackluster and actually has worse single-target firepower than the plain Auto-Smasher due to only having one barrel that faces the opponent.
 * s can only really use either a bullet or a body build, using both at once leaves the tank exceptionally weak.
 * If the turret is strong, it is likely the tank has a bullet build and can be taken out easily just by attacking it.
 * If the turret is weak, the tank is likely a rammer in which case you can fight it identically to a Spike.



Trivia

 * To be flabbergasted means to be overwhelmed with shock. A flabbergaster is presumably a person (or tank) that leaves others flabbergasted.
