"A story of a siege tank"

On a rainy day that seem gloomy
Hit the enrichment boss to have some money
But something changed that made me lucky
A siege tank dropped and added to my inventory

A tank that looks like a challenger tank
The most bada** loot tank
Everyone wants that tank
But only few can get the tank

Everyday looks so sunny
Since i have been so lucky
I forgot all about the money
Since the tank is as cool as micky (Sorry micky just need to rhyme that one)

But I remember the casualty rate
That low means nothing in terms of rate
Every attack I made I hold my breath
That it wouldn't be my siege tank's last breath

Today was like everyday
I surf the rival list like yesterday
Looking for rival that will make my day
And I found the guy I always find everyday

Then I attack him him relentlessly
While he cover his tail disgracefully
He gave a few casualty
I look at all those casualty

Then I saw a unit like this

My heart skipped a beat
Im sure the unit cant be beat
Cold sweat came out
I dont know my way out

I picked my courage to click the unit
i closed my eyes when I clicked the unit
I opened my eyes and i felt electricity
Then there goes my sanity

Came back to my senses
And smile came to my face
A useless mountain citadel died
And my siege tank is still ALIVE!!!!




PS. Sorry if sometimes it doesnt make sense. Its really hard rhyming the end word like a poem. Hope you guys like it :)

It is sooooo on the spot. I farmed 300 of them in two days. Cost a fortune. Then they nerfed it and now they are stealing it back. Just one of those issues......

How many of those 300 do you still have. Do you lose them often? Talk about an advantage that was exploited. LOL
That was a major mistake on Funzio's back then along with the WaveBreaker and Riptide Runner. That good of loot for so cheap of energy cost was a fatal error on strategy. Changed the balance of power of some people in hours/days like you said. It wasn't the fact that gold was used, as many free players scored many of these too.

I unfortunately didn't find out about the easy drop locations until after they were removed. I was actually documenting them under their normal boss locations at the time and drove me crazy seeing people sucking these up so fast. I was trying to verify the drop rates of bosses as 10, 30 60%, but I thought I was wrong when I saw people getting tons of these so quick. It wasn't possible without hacking or the drop being found outside of the top map boss (which made no sense to me that anyone in their right mind at Funzio would have done so). I later found the 3 easy drops after they were closed that put everyhting into perspective. Funzio had lost their minds. LOL

I guess they thought they were being nice to free players, but backfired. Never got an official word on why they did that.

Currently the top 3 loot farming units can still be farmed but at a more resonable cost of energy and drop rate to be fair.

Yeah its a shame i didnt farm those when the drop rate are good and limited energy is needed
