Only reason I've 3 shot a tank with AV is becUse the player didn't build their tank right. Tanks are jst fine, it depends on the player to fit them right.

With a breach forge I can deal over 3000 damage per shot, I 3 shot tanks with AV even if they do fit their tank right :)

There is no "right" way to fit a tank, when you consider the normal Shield Tank will have about 5400 Shields and 1250 Armor or an Armor Tank with 1250 Shields and 6700 Armor, due to the **** resists a HAV has it will die quickly to its dedicated type of AV (Forge for Shields, Swarms for Armor)

I think you're blowing the whole breach forge gun thing out of proportion. To get a 3 shot with a breach, a tank has to sit in the same spot for at least 18 seconds. A forge gunner can't move while charging a breach forge gun. If you die to a solo breach forge gun just stop tanking.

I'm not sure what knowledge of vehicles I need to know other than two things:

1) They can kill me easily by shooting me or running me over
2) They dun like Lai Dais being chucked their way

tanks cant run you over and AV grenades are OP and so is AFG....

So to stop tanks they must skill into vehicles just as much as a tanker then into av, no thanks.
also as a comparison in real life thw u.s. military can 1 shot tanks

I see lots of posts about x player doing a tank and y player blowing the tank up in 3 hits, then y player complains tanks are too strong cause they can't kill then in one shot...

Most of these ridiculous arguments arise because the AV specialists know .... Nothing ... About the vehicle skill tree.

If these people had to gain knowledge of the target they want to take down, they should have to dig into the tree of their intended target to do so.
Hybridized skill lines if you would.
The weapons tree holds the proficiency and use of the weapons like normal but the damage bonuses for checking type of vehicle would be on that vehicle itself.

So if you teched into LAV you'd get bonus to that, but not Dropships or HAV. And the same would be with the other vehicle trees.

This would mean that regular AV would have reduced effect until they learned about how to damage the vehicles.

I mean who has more knowledge about how a vehicle can fall apart than the technicians themselves?

And we can move Forge Guns into the Turret Skill tree. Can't wait for that juicy ten percent damage bonus unlike current dead weight Weaponry Skill Tree.

You obviously haven't been on here long. Of course you can move while charging the breach forge.

Dear God in heaven, this is the WORST proposal for balance ever.

In order to AV you must drive Vehicles... WHAT?!?!?!?!?!

Put the crackpipe down while I educate you about antitank infantry. they do not go and spend time learning to drive the machines they blow up. they learn to identify the enemy vehicles by silhouette and shape, and where to shoot them to blow holes in the side that cause overpressure to squirt the crew out through a hole the size of a quarter, like a fast-pour frostee machine.

Most antitank infantry know **** all about using turrets. They know where to hit the tank to make that turret pop off and fly fifty feet into the air though.

and more to the point, exactly how is being forcedg to learn turrets to use heavy weapons FUN? Is there fun factor for the AV player?

Here's what an AV player needs to know:

What is that?
Is it hostile?
do I have a weapon that can kill it?

If you correctly answer all three questions, you shoot it in the butt (weakspot) and watch it burn!

Give me a forge gun as a small turret and we have a deal.

if thats the case then the breach FG has changed :P.. you never could move whilst charging or charged.
