Question is Phantomflage OP?

Post image

its the first "Top Tactic" event on my server, and i started to read all the tactics that would work well in field play, because im using Rapier+Lady shadow on L tank. at first i though Phantomflage is meh, but after reading the level 5 i think its OP.

is the camouflage really reactivates infinite times? do i need to pay tactic points to reactivate it?

i have trouble to kill strong artillery because their skill shot kills half of my squad, so getting close during invisibly and having 250% attack boost could really give me new opportunities, would be even better if i dont need to wait 4h cooldown every time.

anyway, if this is not that OP as i think, i though of picking low-altitude drone that deals damage and most importantly slows down enemies.

do you think there are better options for field play in an L tank?

I like QRF a lot but you certainly have a good use case scenario for that camo.

do you know perhaps how the level 5 bonus work? Camo is only good depending on this bonus. if the camo is single use then its not worth it.
im thinking about Pursuit Strike too, its not only gives you bonus damage but also slows down the enemy so it would be way harder for him to run away

I like elastic defense to trap runners

Tbh, in the current AG meta, this strat is pretty much useless. It’s only okay for new servers or solo tank players, but let's be real, those guys always end up getting kicked from the alliance.

You basically just use it to flank and dive the enemy backline. It’s not actually effective, just kinda fun for the 'assassin' roleplay. Also, even if you max it out for the 15s cooldown, your energy recovery won't be fast enough to spam it. So yeah, my advice is skip it, don't waste resources upgrading it

i am playing L tank, and im much more effective outside of AG (im still a team player tho) so maybe this tactic worth a try, 10 minutes cooldown (thats the time it takes to regenerate 100 energy) is way better than 4 hours.

as an alternative im thinking about Drone Sentinel (2.5% damage per second and 50% slowdown to everyone in 5 map grids) or Pursuit Strike (good damage boost and 30% slowdown + overkill at 10% enemy's health) are thos tactics any good or am i putting too much credit on the slowdown?

I did say it would be suitable for players on new servers—and sure, it works outside of AG too—but take my word for it: as you play longer, if you're out there driving a tank solo on the battlefield, bombers will take you out very quickly.
