Abetter

The Abetter is a tier 5 tank upgrading from Spreadguard at level 60.

Design
Abetter has a circular base with a Spreadling cannon representing its front barrels. In other words, a central barrel looking like the Basic's, secondary barrels like the Minishot's and tertiary and quaternary barrels that originated from the Spreadling. It also has a minion spawner that generates a minion looking like the Spreadling.

Technical
Compared to Spreadling, Abetter gains a Ceptionist-like barrel. Abetter shoots bullets with average-lowdamage, decreasing in damage depending of the bullet fired. It also spawns a weaker minion with the same damage rate (compared to other minions like Industrialist). The Abetter has huge AoD (Area of Denial) and spread due to its 14 bullets (7 from it, 7 from its minion). Overall, it plays like a normal Spreadling but with a minion that is essentially another Spreadling. Additionally, both you and your minion have the exact same fire rate.

As the Abetter

 * Your huge spread can make you gain significant AoD. This can be used on intense fights and when fighting tanks like the Underseer, which have multiple drones, but are significantly (and fairly) weak.
 * You can also try to fight some tanks like the Triplet, given that you can ouflank it, unless they have some max health, which makes them harder to kill, so be prepared.

Against the Abetter

 * Drone tanks will have a harsh time fighting this due to its huge spread, but minion and probe tanks will have no problem fighting this.
 * Tanks such as Triplet and Sprayer can win the Abetter due to its lower DPS, but don't get flanked! You can’t fight an Abetter and a minion Spreadling at the same time and at different places and win easily. Getting flanked also means guaranteed death, unless you are very lucky or skillful at the game.

History

 * The Abetter was added to the game on 25/11/2019.

Trivia

 * An Abetter is someone who persuades or aids someone in doing a bad deed, typically a crime or vandalization.
