    Tank could use a movement speed buff, but they are mostly balanced.

    Speed buff? There are speed endorsements...

    I don't get how people say the Tank is underpowered or is not versatile. Imo he is the most versatile Pro in the game. He is great at bot control, great at breaking defenses and decent at killing Pros.

    I feel Tank needs a speed endorsement in order to be able to regularly do well in pro vs. pro fights. It seems kind of wrong that the Tank can't outrun even a gunner despite being designed for close quarters fights. I would be very happy if the Tank wasn't so reliant on speed endorsements. Maybe it's just how I play him.

    OR

    Give the tank, instead of deploy, a second charge.

    i have never had a problem with speed. i like to think that with a tank i am more sneaky than your average assassin however.

    And that's kind of why he's underpowered. He requires the most sneakiness, yet he's the slowest, most visible character out there

    i dont think he is underpowered at all, he is just a little peculiar in that, against your average "tank" character across all games, they are the simplest class to learn; but the tank in mnc actually has a decent learning curve to him.

    The tank has poor base movement speed but arguably the best/second best burst mobility + damage output in the game. Its all about knowing WHEN to make your move.

    People who have mobility issues with the tank are not using Charge + Jet Pack correctly. I jet pack jump across steel peel in about 1.5 seconds and death blossom cocky stationary snipers all the time.

    i have found a really fun tank jump on steel peel. if you go up the jump pad, get up on the glass wall on the upper ring, then regular jump to the glass around the annihilator, you can land and tank jump from that to the other side of the map.

    I'm still in the "Let Tank choose when to detonate Product Bombs so I don't have to RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAEEEEEEEEEEEEEG anytime it misses a bunny hopper" wagon.


    Where the hell did that thread go...

    THE TANK BY FAR, get killed easy just stay out of his range which is easy for all the classes except gunner he just blasts him,I try playing as him but he just sucks same with his jet gun.

    The jet gun should be when you shoot some one with it and they are just on the end of the beam it still should do a good amount of damage because its hard enough to get close enough to hit them with it.

    The only issue I have with the jet gun is how thin the beam is, the lag issues really screw over the Tank.

    You can actually do a "DOUBLE" tank jump using the same jump pattern you just described.

    -Get on top of outer rim glass.
    -Charge Jump from outer rim glass to Center glass
    -save enough Jet pack to jet RIGHT as you land on the center glass
    -If done correctly you can continue your momentum as if you had not yet blown your tank jump and glide across the entire map (which lets your charge cooldown timer begin to reset much earlier, and letting you use charge offensively much sooner than usual)

    I'll post a video here of some fun tank jumps in a few hours.

    After the patch, support is seriously lacking...

    Sniper still needs to be nerfed.

    Everyone else is fairly balanced.
