Then what was the point of AV? Or is the idea that 5 AV weapons were put in the game just for harassing LAV's? |

This right here is why I can't take tankers seriously. Plenty of us running around with proto swarms and FG's and it's still always the "waaaaah militia" excuse. |

Who said solo? And how did you get solo'd anyways? I've seem so many tankers not have this issue with "solo" proto AV on the field. But guess what, if half the team has AV grenades and you wander in rage it's not "solo" anymore. If an FG and 2 swarmers are giving chase it's not solo. And if you let me get behind you and unload 3 AV grenades right behind you followed by 2 swarms before you react you deserve to go down. |

Plenty of us running around with proto swarms and FG's and it's still always the "waaaaah militia" excuse. Because vehicles have been nerfed consecutively from build to build, while AV has been buffed from build to build.
Ok, that's valid, but I can assure you that you aren't doing anything but fueling the adversarial relationship between AV and tankers when all we can get is a "you just want your militia fit to solo my tank" after purposely allocating SP and fits for it because of "that one match where they called in a tank and it did a thing and we all died." Cause that really isn't productive. |

Did you miss my "Just got alpha'd" thread?
I miss a lot of those topics because they typically degenerate into what you were doing before you actually started giving decent responses. The only reason I stopped here is because I spotted something that seemed exceptionally misguided in the idea that infantry, despite having a good variety of AV options, shouldn't be effective in AV. But that said, why, if I can get OHK'd in the back by a scout that didn't show on the mini map, should vehicles inherit an immunity to it? Asking seriously and realistically, is there even a way for a tank to be OHK'd by a single AV character? If not you already have the advantage. |

Depends on the AV weapon, requisite skills and vehicle being shot at. I've OHK'd a Kalaakiota Tac HAV with the DCMA during Chromosome because I hit it in the weak spot.
Can't really say much on this as my Chromosome experience is near nonexistent. All I know is that now that tanks is almost like a militia tank, and have no idea how it was fit. |

Why don't I get these magic swarms? Mine just explode on terrain and obstacles like one would think they do. |
