Is skimmer or Rocketeer better?
The Rocketeer is the second tank to use Missiles and Deployers, after the Skimmer. Though all tanks may fire into enemy bases, possibly hurting enemies near the very edge of their base, the Rocketeer is the most effective at it, due to the extreme bullet penetration and speed.Is skimmer good Diep io?
Unlike its predecessor, the Skimmer has lost its great recoil, thus scratching out the opportunity for a good Body Damage Build. However, its Missiles can fire bullets, making it easier to hit enemies. A Bullet Build where all bullet stats are maxed out is the best option for the player to use.What does a ranger do in Diep io?
The Ranger has the second-highest field of vision out of all Tanks when looking in one direction (the first is the Predator when zooming). A Ranger can one-shot kill a tank under level 5 or 6 if the Ranger has high bullet damage.How do you use the Predator in Diep io?
The Predator is one of the two current Tier 4 choices that branch off of the Hunter at Level 45. The Predator can move the camera to seek other players in the direction the cursor is facing by clicking the right mouse button, or the Shift key. As it is a Tier 4 tank, it will not upgrade further.SKIMMER vs. ROCKETEER

Answer 2
According to the wiki:
Skimmer
A similar design to the Hunter but with wider Cannons, this tank has a Deployer and shoots a Destroyer Bullet with two Small Cannons attached at its back flanks. However, the main Bullet’s damage is significantly decreased. These bullets are known as missiles. As of press (Keyboard) time, only this tank and the Rocketeer use missiles.
Rocketeer
The Rocketeer fires bullets with a Machine Gun Barrel on it's back, propelling the bullet forward. These too are missiles, as above.
Answer 3
The difference between the Skimmer and the Rocketeer is that they shoot different missiles, as said in Damek's answer. Another difference between these two tanks is that a rocketeer's missile can have low bullet penetration and still survive after going through a tank. I've also heard that the rocketeer's missiles can shoot through the base camps in teams, unlike the skimmer and other tanks in diep.io.
Hope this helped!
Answer 4
Skimmer shoots mini Flank Guards. Rocketeer shoots mini Machine Guns.
