Getting more bang for you buck- A Dept. of Education guide to tanking

Day 559, 13:36 • Published in USA USA • by Department of Citizen Affairs

Ever wonder how battle heroes get over 10k damage per battle? Wonder how that's possible? The Department of Education will tell you how.

I recently had a question directed to me on the Federalist Forum asking me, "Hey Tiacha, I know you're a Marine, but what exactly is tanking? I've never gotten a good explanation."

Well, "Tanking" is a military tactic used by all factions. Tanking is where a military unit goes into the battle the last 10 to 15 minutes of the battle with the purpose of bring down the wall. You're given gold and weapons to fight. You fight, then heal yourself with a wellness pack after each battle. Wellness packs cost 2 gold each. Remember, though, you are limited to 40 wellness packs a day. You can heal with a wellness pack right from the battle page. That way, you get the most damage out of each weapon. Once you run out of gold, you use the hospital like you would a normal battle.

So lets give a hypothetical example here. Let's say Marine Medyawesome has a strength of 13. She has 100% wellness, is the rank of general, and has Q5 weapons. At that level, she'd hit for 218 damage. If she heals with a gold pack each time, she hits for 218 damage each round until she runs out of gold. When she has 5 weapons left and no more gold, she fights as she would normally do, healing at 50 wellness at the nearest Q5 hospital. Its as simple as that.

Governments usually fund tanks. They are the highest ranking soldiers. Most tanks throughout the world have at least 12 str and the min. rank of general. But you can also tank with your own money too.

More helpful tips on how to tank:
-Make sure you always start at 100% wellness. That way, you get the most bang for your buck.
-If you're looking to win an easy Battle Hero medal, try tanking during a war game. Less people battle seriously in these battles, so, its easier to get a battle hero medal.
