    Hey'll, decided to go make a forum thread about this since people in #scenario were talking a bit about it.

    If anyone remembers the original heartbroken tank from V1.5 and V1.6 back in the valentine's day event for 2016 and 2017, we never had area strategies for dealing with this specific tank. The Heartbroken Tank itself also worked a bit differently in how it dealt with the survivors compared to how it deals with them now.

    Since the introduction of the indoor strategy though, the tank did need to be buffed over the various years to make it not an easy tank to kill and render the outside strategy much more harder to execute.

    Since then, V1.7, V1.8 and V2.0, we've had to always do the indoor strategy against the heartbroken tank. We did try the outdoor strategy a few times, but it has since then become almost impossible to attempt that strategy ever again.

    Here's what others think:

    the problem was, her fury abilities charge up way to fast then before, i show the video you linked awhile back. She wasn't spamming as much so you guys were kiting her from house to house

    Here's a video from how the tank originally worked:

    Fighting HB outside is troublesome. Doing it inside isnt exactly easy because even the SI get work there way into the living room sometimes or you get jockeyed or smoked outside and all CI and SI on you. Indoors is the only way i see

    Yeah... Sadly indoors is pretty much the only not impossible way you can fight against the Heartbroken Tank.

    It's not easy to avoid getting pinned by the SI either, unless you had a few survivors using support buff sets and not doing much against the tank.

    Unless there was a way to reduce the amount of fury gain while near survivors outside so it was still balanced while at the same time not making it easy to survive (since the survivors usually spread further away), the indoors is the only way to fight the tank atm.
