Robocraft blimp

I have a tier 4 blimp with 3 rail gun, I always get spotted and shot, is there anyway I can avoid being seen? And I haven't seen any blimp since the update, is it just useless?

Solution 1:

Blimps begin to get useless around tier 4+ because that's when people begin to look up to see planes and blimps. If you still want to stay with the blimp, putting electroplates on your bot is a good idea, because they can take about 1 rail shot from the same tier (2 to destroy) and a few SMG shots. Also, headlights make it harder for snipers to hit you, because their guns get blinded when they are looking straight at a headlight. I hope this helped!
