Description

The Humvee 3 (High Mobility Multipurpose Wheeled Vehicle Version 3) is the third vehicle that spawns from the Military Base. In-game, it is meant to be referred to as just Humvee, though it has been referenced here as Humvee 3 to differentiate itself from other Military Base units. It spawns when the Military Base is at Level 3. As with other units, it starts from the end of the map path and moves towards the entrance of the map. The Humvee 3 has a spawnrate of 35 seconds, which is reduced down to 25 seconds in PVP mode. It is slightly slower than the Humvee 2. Unlike the Humvee and Humvee 2, the Humvee 3 has a mounted gun on its roof which a passenger uses to attack enemies. When firing, it will slow down, giving it more time to attack enemies. This gun can detect hidden enemies, but cannot detect flying enemies or damage lead enemies. There is a limit of three units per Military Base, limiting the amount of Humvee 3s that can spawn. This however generally should not be an issue, due to how hard it is to reach this limit.

Appearance

The current version of the Humvee 3 is a khaki-colored and typical in appearance to other Humvees in real life. It has a bullbar on the front, with barbed wire attached to it. It has black windshields, black antennas near the back of the vehicle, black wheels and yellow headlights. On top of the vehicle there is a mounted machine gun, protected by various shields. It is operated by a humanoid with tan skin, black shirt and mask, and green goggles.

Strategy

The Humvee 3 is great for high health enemies that spawn early on during the game, like the Normal Boss or Elite Abnormal. The Humvee 3 is useful for enemies that spawn other enemies, like the Necromancer, as it can shoot down spawned enemies. The Humvee 3 can be quite useful against hidden enemies, as it has hidden detection. The Humvee 3 also cannot collide with Ghost enemies, like the Soul. On two-pathed maps, only one Humvee 3 will spawn per Level 3 Military Base. It will go down a random path. The Humvee 3 can deal full collision damage to enemies with defense, like the Fallen Squire or Elite Abnormal. However, the Humvee 3's gun damage is still affected by defense. The Humvee 3 is not affected by any buff or debuff. The Humvee 3 will struggle against any enemy with abilities that damage units because of its low health. For example, if the Fallen King uses its Sword Swing attack, and a Humvee 3 is caught in the attack, it is instantly destroyed.

Patch history

The Humvee 3 is based on the military vehicle of the same name made by AM General, as evidenced by its similar design and same name. Initially, the Truck3 was named the Humvee3 when it was added, even though it was not similar to a Humvee vehicle in any way. Interestingly, the Humvee 3 directly replaced the Truck3. The upgrade icon for the Level 3 Military Base does not show the barbed wire on the bullbar, unlike the original Humvee 3 model. The original Humvee 3 model appeared in the third and second version of Forest Camp as decoration.
