Tank Cannon is a Bomb-elemental skill in Epic Battle Fantasy 3, 4 and 5. It is available to Matt, Lance and NoLegs as a random summon from the Officer's Hat. It is one of the few skills whose type varies between games.
Description[]
The Valkyrie Tank fires its main cannon at a single foe, dealing moderate Bomb-elemental damage. This also has a chance to Stagger in later games.
If one has the Ninja Gear equipped at the same time as the Officer's Hat in EBF4, the Tank Cannon will deal triple damage. However, this is highly impractical unless the player is specifically making a Hand Bomb-based build.
Epic Battle Fantasy 3[]
Tank Cannon deals physical damage.

Epic Battle Fantasy 4[]
In this game, Tank Cannon takes its stats from the Hand Bomb item. As such, it became magical, and can be boosted by equipping Ninja Gear on the same player who wears the Officer's Hat.

| Notes: With Ninja Gear equipped, power is increased to 240 (3x). Prior to the Battle Mountain update, the equips only boosted items to 2x power, resulting in 160 power. | ||||||||||
Epic Battle Fantasy 5[]
In this game, Tank Cannon simply casts Big Blast; as such, it is now multi-target. Like other skills involving Lance's tank, its animation has been changed to show the Neon Valkyrie firing a Cannon Turret instead of the Valkyrie Tank.

Trivia[]
- Since the Tank Cannon attack in EBF4 uses the same stats as the Hand Bomb, it is consequently the only non-item ability to be boosted by the Ninja Gear.
- This also implies that instead of firing any sort of special munition, the Valkyrie Tank just shoots out Hand Bombs. Or Tank Bombs, as the case may be.
