Stiletto

The Stiletto is a Tier 3 tank that branches off the Lancer and the Minishot at level 30. It features two thin barrels alongside the lance, making it visually similar to the Minishot.

Design
The Stiletto is a mix between the Minishot and the Lancer, with the center barrel being replaced by a lance.

Technical
The Stiletto's lance deals heavy damage to anything that comes into contact with it. It can also be used to block bullets and other attacks.

Its side barrels fire small bullets that are slightly more powerful than the Minishot's.

As the Stiletto

 * Use your side bullets to fence in enemies while you move forward with your lance.
 * Like other melee tanks, the Stiletto benefits from upgrading movement speed to make up for its short range.
 * Your lance can block weak bullets and help you get close to enemies. In the same fashion, avoid tanks with stronger bullets that can get through your lance.

Against the Stiletto

 * Tanks that can stay away from the Stiletto or repel it, like Propellers and Pounders
 * Tanks with homing bullets or swarms are effective as the Stiletto can not defend on all sides at once.
 * Minion tanks like the Spawner can also swarm the Stiletto from multiple sides.

History
The Stiletto was added on 19 January 2019, along with one of its upgrades, Vantalancer.

The Stiletto branch was slightly tweaked two days later, but it unclear what the tweak was.

In May 2020 the Mainstay was made to upgrade from Stiletto, but was later reverted.

Trivia

 * Despite having two potential upgrades (Lipan and Guitarist), a Basebrid-Stiletto was never made.
