Goodness these things are out of control, not sure if they are glitched or what, but unless under constant heavy AV from several players all at once, they are invincible.

I knew these things were already like that, but now I am even more convinced something is terribly wrong. I just got out of an ambush match on the bowl map... and as usual LLAV's and LAV's EVERYWHERE. So I bring in my advanced assault forge with an enhanced damage mod.

So there is this one LLAV that I got a direct hit on and got the marker (saw their health drop too as I hit them), but the thing is, their health dropped so minimally, I almost couldn't even tell it was damaged. And just after I hit I got a look at their shield health... it was almost 1500 HP.

How the **** can a 1500-1700 HP LLAV take 1600+ HP damage from a forge and just barely get it's shields scratched? There is something terribly wrong with these LLAV's that goes beyond hardeners and resistance mods. I haven't even come across a tank that was so invulnerable to damage as these damn LLAV's are.

Clearly you don't know how to play the game too well, learn strategy!

I've been informed that how its done is to have your entire side use AV for the first 10-15 minutes of the game, and then that LLAV is neutralized and you can do whatever else you need to do i.e. move onto the next LLAV on that side.

You're 100% on the money. It's a problem. 2. It's received a lot of attention and a fix is probably on the way because 3. You're about 2 weeks late to the party.

Another 10% from skill (although unless they recently fixed this, it's not working). Then factor in resist modules on top of that. A LLAV can easily have 60-70% resist. A LLAV with 3-4k shields and around 50% resist isn't unlikely either. I wonder if CCP forgot it's a Logistics Light Attack Vehicle?

Sgt Kirk SyNergy Gaming EoN. 1119	Posted - 2013.08.16 08:17:00 - [6] - Quote Most peoples issues with the LLAV is the Caldari LAV. Gallente LLAVs are a challenge to take out but they are much easier due to the amount of AV weapons that is made specifically to destroy armor. Currently there are no Anti Shield AV weapons in this game (the Forge gun is not AV shield) As much as I hate Caldari LLAVs running all over the place I think the issue will be solved once LAVs return to their old mechanics of taking slight damage when hitting dropsuits and slow down on impact (depending on speed and frame). The current ways LAVs work is confirmed as a malfunction in their coding or whatever and plans to be fixed (SOON) Another thing that will make Caldari LLAVs more manageable is the introduction of Anti Shield AV weapons (Here's looking at you Gallente and Amarr) hopefully with those we can do damage to the C. LLAVs of 80-130% damage instead of the 40% effectiveness that we do now against Caldari with the AV weapons (besides Forge)
THEAMAZING POTHEAD Pure Innocence. EoN. 232	Posted - 2013.08.16 08:19:00 - [7] - Quote LAVs get a skill for extra resistance, vehicle shield upgrades is also 10% resistance, 3 complex shield amplifiers also get 15% each but get stacking penalties, but get increased efficiency through shield adaptation and the LAV skill, and an active hardener for another 30% resistance(+efficiencies...), plus the shields inherent resistance to explosives, while FGs only do 10% extra damage to shields.... +the shields passive rep, repping its small HP pool doesn't take long... i think u get the picture.

It was funny and I applaud anyone who breaks the system so CCP can see the error of their ways, but it was also rather discomforting.

My gosh Although even 60-70% resistance didn't make sense with this LLAV. It's shields dropped so minimally, and when I saw it's shield HP after I hit, I was astonished. My guess based on the health bar and how far it had dropped, I did maybe 5-10% damage to that LLAV with a 1600+ HP forge (which is supposed to be better against shields).

Use the Kaalakiota Forge Gun and shoot the guy out of the driver seat. You gain so much more accuracy by being able to hold the charge. Only use the assault forge guns when trying to take out an HAV. Yeah, I had taken out a LLAV driver a few days ago with my assault forge and it was the most rewarding thing I have done in the game in a long time. After I hacked it, I dropped it off in the redzone. I messaged the player after the match (we had communicated before and were on good terms) and he was not happy. But his LLAV is one of the invincible ones, so I was ecstatic I finally got back at one of them. I might give the breach a try, although the assault is great against infantry too if I can actually get my reticle to turn red as it fires. LAV's are a pain though since they are so fast, dropships and tanks seem to be the assault forge's specialty.

I think they're going to adjust the LLAVs so they can't soak up more damage than tanks. That being said I'd leave the AV nades as they are.

Let your teammates hack those LLAVs and start running the opponents over! You know the guy driving goes POP when a blaster turret looks at him. Besides whats more satisfying than having your teammates running a guy down with his LLAV after being shot out of it by a 120k ISK Militia tank?

J Lav Opus Arcana Covert Intervention 175	Posted - 2013.08.16 11:03:00 - [25] - Quote Trouble here is that the disparity between standard and advanced vehicles is massive, giving a skewed perception of AV, to the point that hardeners are without a doubt the best option, and therefore the only option in the game. AV then becomes marginalized, and superpower vehicles misrepresent the issue. ie. OP LLAV fits exasperate players with LAV's ability to run people down. It's not that big a deal, but when you can't kill them - it is.

So a forgegun wont take it out in a single shot. Base resistance on lvl 1 logi LAV is i think 30%. Not sure but i think you can get HP and resistance much more up and take a insane amount of AV weapons.
