Eggmancer


 * To be confused with Lightning.

The Eggmancer is a tier 5 that upgrades from the Necromancer at level 60.

Design
The Eggmancer has a circular body, unlike other Underseer-branch tanks. It has 2 spawners placed in a way similar to the Lightning. The spawners are very small.

Technical
Eggmancers spawn "cheeseball" drones. These drones are fairly weak on their own, but can be used to defeat even strong tanks with hundreds of them are available. These drones can infect Eggs, as well as Giant Eggs (ammunition of egg sanctuary), Snowballs (ammunition of snowball sanctuary), and Golden Eggs (ammunition of golden sanctuary).

When eggmancer infects normal eggs, they become extremely tightly packed. this can temporarily block even heavy bullet spammers' barrages, with so many of them forming impenetrable barrier. Still, collection of normal eggs are small, so avoid 1 vs 2+ at all costs; egg stack is slow and small.

Infecting egg of snowball, egg, and burnt sanctuary is hard (since they are rare), but infecting sanctuary eggs can theoretically provide eggmancer hundreds of strong cheeseballs. Sanctuary-originate cheeseballs are as strong as drones of trimancer, and are very big. This can be used to shield the eggmancer itself for long time against various tanks, giving eggmancer a lot of time to kill enemy.

Lastly, as it is for all underseer branch, run away from bullet spammers as they might destroy your drones in an instant.

Upgrades
The Eggmancer upgrades from the at level 60. It does not upgrade any further.

As the Eggmancer

 * If an Egg Sanctuary has just spawned, go to the egg sanctuary. It always spawns a lot of regular eggs along with its giant eggs.
 * Your drones are tiny. Instead, go with other tanks and use your drones as a “shield”
 * Play an Eggmancer like a Destroyer class.

Against the Eggmancer

 * Use bullet spammer tanks. The drones are pretty weak.
 * Attack the Eggmancer when it has low health, drones, or both.
