They're not nerfed, I would say they're just changed (with a slight buff). Smaller magazine size, but faster to lock and shoot. Tanks with higher health can easily get away from all swarms.
Even though they track, they track in basically a straight line. Putting anything between you and a rockets will protect you from any other oncoming shots.
Tankers a huge cry babies though, so any buff to av, even av that wasn't dropping tanks left and right (what's up, forge guns) produces all of the tears. |

So yeah, keep crying about the reload time. Just Lol. If you don't believe me, then take some time to check them yourself. 1.4 lock on time, 0.3 fire interval, 4.5 reload time, 3 round clip vs. 1.2 lock on time, 2 fire interval, 4 reload time, 5 round clip. |

An adjustment was made to swarms. I disagree with those saying that they were buffed, just as I disagree with those saying they were nerfed. As I mentioned in another thread--as a Wirykomi user, I actually prefer the larger clip size of 1.3 over the firing speed of 1.4; with the latest patch, tank users just need to be sure not to leave themselves exposed without any nearby cover (I've heard the complaints about how rockets can bend around obstacles, but let me assure you my rockets have NO trouble flinging themselves into the sides of rocks/buildings!) or they'll find themselves in serious danger. That said, surviving the three shots (reps/cover/partial hits) gives you a good-sized window to retreat. All else fails, position your tank in the vicinity of depots/CRUs/turrets to complicate the SLs ability to lock onto you and not the other potential targets. |

I agree swarms are now a little OP they defiantly got a buff all we need is blind fire again and watch infantry do amusing superman impressions |

I don't even understand the tanker QQ. Anecdotally, I've had just about the same success against tanks since pre-1.4. The only exception being against LLAVs, the shield ones seem to drop much quicker now. I've had rounds of me literally only trying to kill a tank (with level 3 proficiency proto swarms and exo-av), with him getting away at every attempt. |

Your suit HAS tank, it is not A tank.
HAVs are obviously the equivalent of a tank such as a T-90 or a Challenger II or an M1. Your snide remark is not clever. Tankers regularly refer to HAVs as tanks, because they ARE tanks. |

The clip was 6 before 1.4 ... 4 as standard + 10% per level of operation AND the reload time was 4.5 before 1.4 and is still the same.
Lets look at the full cycle ... This means from beginning first lock to the beginning of the seventh lock, since before 1.4 there was 1 reload and after there are 2 reloads to get to the same point and begin the cycle again.
before 1.4 would be 21.7
and since 1.4 it's now 18.9 - this is while the skill isn't working.
So that's 2.8 seconds difference ... less than half a second per volley average.
The Problem isn't the increase in DPS ... it's the FACT that most vehicles in the game right now can't stand up to much more than the initial three vollies, which now hit much quicker than before.
It's become a Burst variant shall we say giving damage in quicker bursts but with more gaps.
The problem is the same as it's been for quite some time now ... That proto vehicles aren't available to withstand proto AV ... if you want to moan about anything, moan about that ! |

I get the impression you misunderstand what a tank is in an MMO style game ... it's a characters ability to not get killed ... whether that be by absorbing the damage with high hitpoints, repairing the damage faster than it's being dealt or by avoiding taking the damage altogether with speed, agility or any other means.
A HAV is a Heavy Attack Vehicle, it has a tank too ... whether it's shield or armour, buffer or active or passive.
Using the word tank to describe your HAV will only cause confusion at one time or another AND takes longer to type ... so why do you all do it ! ... because it's similar to a real world tank ... then why do you all want it to take multiple people to destroy it when a real world tank can be destroyed by a single infantry portable missile ...

So you are going to play as a SOLDIER in a FPS!? nice, i hope you enjoy it.
I hope you never have to fight one 6500+ EHP tank with hardeners and a good tanker that you just cant kill, and keeps spawn klilling you, over and over and over again, and doesnt matter how many times you shoot at him,he regenerates faster than the damage you are dealing....

Hey the skill does what it is suppose to on SL. They took off the extra clip size due to the increased fire rate to make it fair. Look at the patch notes people that was in there. I heard swarms were losing the big clip and getting fire rates. |

actually, it takes no skill to run as infantry, im doing it now and I don't have to do nearly as many things to survive as I do with a tank.

I don't really give a **** about swarm launchers. I've gotten to the point in my SP where I can regularly spam a nice fit, and I've learned that the only thing that Swarms have got going for them is the element of surprise. Once I get out of the area and rep, I just go to another corner of the map. Sometimes they get me, most times they don't. I get killed by other tanks far more often than AV players. Maybe I've just been lucky and haven't run into any dedicated "dragon slayers," but seriously: If you're on a good team, those AV guys are f*cked. Last night I was in this amazing pub where we rolled out three decked out maddy's. As soon as we blew up their supply depo, it turned into one sided carnage, I sh*t thee not. Any Dragon slayer who wanted to bust a nut on our rides had to drag himself through aim-bot assault rifle hell to do it. It was beautiful.
I don't know how tank and AV are supposed to work, but I really have no issues with a guy leveling up his skills to kill my HAV. After all, I skilled up my HAV to kill that guy. Tit for tat. I just wish it was cheaper. |
