Just played a game with Ted Nugget of SVER.

Redline sniping...okay, i see that coming from a mile away from tanks.

Decides to stop redline sniping, switch to missile tank.

I switch to proto Ishukone FG with prof 5.

8 Forge gun hits later....hes chugging along, with full health a few seconds afterwards....as if i didn't exist.

Yea....tanks seriously need a buff.

Ass holes.

well... hes obviously NOT a scrub tanker, we all know that now lol

by the rate of things, nobody new will want to spec into tanks because its still the most hated and nerfed class in the game.

its my mercenary tanker corp.

but seriously, that's what you got from my post?

Ted is one of the BEST tankers in the game. I'd be surprised if this wasn't the case. Based on what you just told me and the few times I played with him, I have a good idea what fit he was running.

You are ONE proto AV guy. The good tankers of dust have no problem with ONE proto av. The second another shows up we are screwed. Also, you're probably not a very good AV gunner BC if you don't understand that you don't shoot tanks with their hardeners on (shield tanks can pull a little less than 90% resistance at times), then you need to rethink your tactics.

I Gaurentee if you payed attention to his battle rhythm, you could've 3-shotted him, easily. The good tankers roll in a rhythm of kill, run, kill. Kill mode is often accompanied by 50-90% damage resistance for 10-60 seconds, depending on the build. Learn that, and tanks will be easy. There's a reason that the tank is still the best AV weapon we know each other's tricks. You'll never understand AV until you hop into a tank and learn how incredibly weak they are, save that short burst of defensive prowess.




Anyway, stop QQing. It's like saying that the AR needs a nerf BC a guy in TP went 25:0 with it. (The AR is OP but not for that reason)
