Varp is an in-game Sentry that controls up to four large drones.
Design[]
Varp is a strange-looking ten-sided polygon with a concavity in the back. Within that cavity there is a very large drone spawner that produces up to four large drones, slightly smaller than the Overload's drones.
Technical[]
Varp has the most health out of any other Sentry, even with its major size and health nerfs form TESTBED to in-game. Varp moves extremely slowly, as do its drones. It also has slow reload speed, making it a vulnerable target without its drones or teammates.
Spawning[]
Varp spawns in the pentagon nest as of 7/11/2021.
Countering[]
Varp is a very large entity, so using tanks with wide spread as well as high damage is smart. The drones are slow, but do not ignore them; just a single drone can kill a glass cannons tank. Try to destroy the drones; if you can destroy them fast enough, Varp will have nothing to defend itself with. Plus, considering how slow Varp's reload is, destroying its drones will leave it 100% vulnerable. However, whatever you do, always attack Varp with long ranged weapons (which shouldn't be too hard, considering this is a tank game)
Trivia[]
- The only reason the Varp is known to exist prior to it being spawnable in the Nest is due to Developer Events.
- At some time in Developer Events, The Varp could make up to 100 drones at once (it's been counted!)
- At this case, Varp would be strong enough to be considered a Developer-Super-Boss.
- Varp is the only thing in the game with such a shape. No other Crashers are shaped like Varp.
- As a matter of fact, Varp's own drones are Triangle shaped instead of shaped like it. This is most likely due to how advanced Varp's shape is.
- There was a time when Varp was somewhere around twice the size of a Mothership or Arena Closer.
- This was during the time when Varp was able to spawn 100 drones at once.
- Varp is the only Sentry AND Crasher to have a name with 4 letters.
- Varp is also one of the only two Crashers or Sentries to have a name that's a made up word.
- The only other one is the Vis Destructica crusher.
- Not like anyone would care, but Varp is also the only Crasher and Sentry to have a name ending with the letter "p"
- Varp is also one of the only two Crashers or Sentries to have a name that's a made up word.
- Save for the Collider Lite, Varp is the only Pentagon blue Sentry.
- Varp was the first known TESTBED Sentry.
- As a matter of fact, it was the first TESTBED sentry, being older than the Swarming Square, Flash Sentry (Gunner), and the AWP-39 Lite
- Varp holds the most woomy.arras.io records of any Sentry, having the records including Largest Sentry, Only-4-Letter-Name, Only name to end in P, and First TESTBED Sentry.
