The Missilus is a TESTBED boss that was added on an unknown date.
Design[]
Missilus has an invisible rectangle base with ten Twin Rifle turrets on the back and front, and on the sides of the rectangles that hold the twin rifles there are many, I mean MANY Hyperskimmer turrets. In the middle there are eighteen Staplegun turrets, and large minion spawners. Last of all, in the back there is a large and wide Bateau thruster.
Technical[]
The Missilus cannot face anywhere using the cursor. Instead, it faces in the direction it moves. It's MANY turrets all work as the tanks they're based on, so I'm not going too into detail about them. Though, I will say their arcs: the Staplegun's arcs are strangely 361, the Hyperskimmer's are 220 and the Twin Rifles(Muskets?) are also 361.
Anyways, the Missilus' minions are squares with triangles on all of their flat sides but the back side. They use 4 thrusters, 2 Nailgun turrets and uses what seems to be some sort of modified Ejector guns in the front.
ANY-Anyways, the Missilus' bodily stuff:
Despite it appearing to be LARGE, it's actual size is only 28. It only appears large because of the sizes of it's parts. It has a FoV of 1.7, a Speed of 1.4 and 2000 HP.
Strategy[]
It's missiles are strong, tough bullets which are hard to navigate through because of the amount of bullets and missiles it has, so you would need alot of defense including offense. You need at least more than or ten Hexa Builders and Tri-Constructors. Probably Splitters will be useful for defense and offense as the minions are tough and deal much damage. Oh yeah and I forgot about the Staplegun turrets, use more Trapper-class to fend the fast and small bullets, and remember they are small so add Max Health & Movement Speed. This boss is almost defenseless, but has very much in offense and can kill tanks in an instant, using Bullet Penetration it is easy enough for you to pierce most of the bullets using high penetration tanks like Obliterator. Swarm type will be useful when played correctly. Acid is useful as it will deal constant damage to the boss, also a few Surges and any Freezer upgrade (except Disintegrator) to paralyze the boss. Then, slowly kill the boss.
Also, you could use speedy tanks like the Speed Demon, Shooting Star or Resplendent to distract the minions. Since the Missilus has close to nothing on the back of it, you could get some tanks to attack it from there.
