They are extremely tough, they are the Flood's equivalent of a [[Hunter]], and attacks that destroy normal Combat forms with one hit deal far less damage to a Tank Form. They are able to take multiple hits from the Gravity Hammer (only takes one hit if a player hits it '''directly''' between the two tentacles hanging from its face) and the Shotgun, though the [[Energy Sword]] seems to make shorter work of them, as will a melee attack in the mouth, usually killing them in one slice. | They are extremely tough, they are the Flood's equivalent of a [[Hunter]], and attacks that destroy normal Combat forms with one hit deal far less damage to a Tank Form.

Since they are very slow and unable to rush the player, the [[Flamethrower]], or [[Firebomb]]s are a simple, ranged, one-hit option attack against the Tank Forms, though rare. | Since they are very slow and unable to rush the player, the [[Flamethrower]], or [[Firebomb]]s are a simple, ranged, one-hit option attack against the Tank Forms, though rare. Beware, they can move on all fours, increasing their movement speed drastically. [[Brute Shots]] are also extremely effective against them because the melee attack with the [[Brute Shot]] is an instant kill against them on all difficulties except [[Legendary]], which takes one shot with one melee. [[Plasma Grenade]]s, are also very effective, but only if they are placed near the head area. A pair of [[Shotgun]] blasts to a Tank Form's head is sufficient to put it down on [[Normal]] difficulty. | ||
There is a more unconventional method of jumping onto one's head and either meleeing them or using a powerful weapon, as they are unable to attack above them. | There is a more unconventional method of jumping onto one's head and either meleeing them or using a powerful weapon, as they are unable to attack above them. | ||
