The Goliath Tank is a Cabal super-heavy hovercraft tank. It is armed with a cannon as its main weapon, as well as multiple close-range defenses. The Tank also has the ability to charge at enemies. Its wide arsenal, tough armor plating, and surprising mobility allow the tank to excel in all-range combat.
Gameplay
The main turret is a roughly estimated 110 mm energy cannon. It can potentially fire devices titled "planet crackers." They have a considerable range and high velocity, and can instantly kill a Guardian in one shot. The Goliath is also outfitted with several machine gun turrets that act as close-range defense weapons, which will shred anyone that steps into their line of fire. The machine guns are scattered around the tank. One is located on the main turret and two more are located on the front.[1] Additionally, there are missile launchers that fire homing rockets. They are fired in clusters like those of a Colossus and deal heavy damage to Guardians unfortunate enough to interrupt their flight path, and occasionally, flak turrets will fire explosive shells into the air to strike targets that pass overhead. In addition to all of this fearsome firepower at hand, the Goliath is also surprisingly mobile. It is powered by four independently firing thrusters on each corner of the tank for locomotion, and give the tank two extra attacks: the tank will either charge while deploying mines that can detonate prematurely, or fire energy at players that sets them on fire. However, each of these thrusters is a weak spot; although once the thruster catches on fire, they take less precision damage than one that isn't on fire.
