Spider Tanks Guide: How to Play Better & Earn Money

Spider Tanks is a Blockchain-based game that belongs to the PVP Brawler genre and is free to play.

The game features Tanks that take part in battles in order to come out on top and earn money in the form of SILK, which is the in-game currency of Spider Tanks.

While I’ve tried to make it sound quite simple, Spider Tanks is actually quite sophisticated when it comes to the gameplay and earning mechanics.

However, it can be quite profitable if you are good at the game, and can earn you a fortune. But, how do you play better and earn money in Spider Tanks?

How to Play Better & Earn Money in Spider Tanks?

Spider Tanks is a battle between various forms of Tanks in different game modes. These tanks can either be bought or rented for temporary use.

The various game modes add some diversity and remove the monotony. The game modes available in the game right now are – Team Deathmatch, Capture the Chicken and Capture the Flag.

In each of these game modes, you’ll need to employ a Tank of your own in order to fight.

You’ll take control of these tanks and fight team-based battles in various arenas – this role is called The Pilot. If you are triumphant in a certain battle, you’ll earn rewards in the form of SILK.

In case you’re new to the game or aren’t interested to spend right now, the game will automatically provide Tanks for you!

While the number of battles in all the modes combined has no cap, the amount of SILK you earn in a particular day does have a limit, which will change based on the player’s volume.

Apart from earning SILK by winning battles, you can also play the role of The Captain and invest on Tanks to craft powerful builds.

These Tanks can then be rented to Pilots for battles and you’ll earn a certain amount of SILK with each battle the Pilot wins.

Obviously, if your tanks are stronger, even weaker Pilots can grab you wins; so, investing in Tanks can be a good way to earn money in the long run.

Making Strong Tank Builds

As you can tell, well-built Tanks are the key to victory in Spider Tanks. The Tanks that you use, along with the Weapon and Body play an important role in helping you attain victory.

Whether you’re piloting your own Tank or you’re the Captain, trying to attain the best Tank build is quite essential.

The Tanks are modified into beastly forms in the Tank Garage. You should try out different builds that go well with your playstyle and will help to get kills easily.

Put on different bodies, use different weapons, and implement various abilities to find your perfect Tank build. The small menu on the right is a great indication of the Speed, Armor, and Energy of your Tank.

Once you’ve won and earned enough SILK, you should make use of the SILK to upgrade your tanks by purchasing rare and legendary components.

The upgrades will cause a random increase in the Tank’s power. It may or may not be what you hoped for but there’s nothing much to change about that.

Let me share a Tank Build with you, which I think will do wonders and bring about wins seamlessly.

Go for the Chicken body in your Tank. While it may provide lesser Health support, the speed of your Tank will be maximized by a huge amount, providing swiftness in your movement.

In fact, the Chicken body gives the highest speed compared to all other bodies.

As for your Weapon, the Eggsecutioner is a crazy one! With extremely low reload time and insane DPS, your Tank will take out enemies in a blink!

The Range will also be quite decent, so you can deal damage even while keeping a safe distance from the enemy Tanks.

Since the insane DPS may prompt you to push in more often and fall in 1v2 or 1v3 situations, making use of the high speed of Chicken body will help you escape and take better positions.

This build can be achieved without spending too much money since I’m not making use of too rare or legendary components, in case you’re planning on investing.

Coordinating with the Team

You probably noticed that all the game modes available right now are team-based battles. Therefore, it’s important that you stick to your team and coordinate attacks with the team as you battle through the arenas.

The last thing you want is to put yourself in unfavorable situations and become a burden to the team.

Making use of the Components

Since you put a lot of focus on the Weapon and Body of the Tank, you may miss out on the additional abilities, props, and skins that you can implement.

The Invulnerability Shield ability is extremely important and is a must-have ability for your Tank. You should go for the special abilities that will only complement the way you play and your role in the team, such as heals and mobility buffs.

Furthermore, if you spend more Gala, you’ll have access to further Props and Skins that come with various boosts to different stats of your Tanks.

In case taking part in battles or crafting builds isn’t your thing, Spider Tanks provides various other roles for you to play and earn money in the game.

You can take the role of The Fabricator, where your job would be to set up factories on various maps.

The objective of these factories is to produce more components, such as Tank Head and Tank Weapons.

The quality is determined by Luck Ratings and Drop Ratings. You’ll earn some SILK for each battle taking place on the map where the factory is located.

Becoming the Baron may also not be a bad idea, as you’ll be the owner of an entire Map! Similar to the Fabricator, you’ll earn money for each and every battle as well as other activities, such as putting up factories.

Upgrading the map will increase your potential earnings as well, as the Battle Ranking of the map rises and more battles take place.

Wrapping Up

Boosting the stats of your Tank is the best way to play better and earn money in Spider Tanks.

Sadly for F2P players, not spending any money in Spider Tanks will probably make it quite difficult to earn SILK fast. However, changes are being made in the game and the Ethereum-based PVP aspect of Spider Tanks is still a work in progress.

I do hope the devs make it more convenient to earn for the F2P players, so that they can easily craft their own Tank builds and ace it in the arenas.
