Screw the farming cap, if somebody wants to farm WP in this manner, then more power to them as it really wouldn't be too fruitful and somewhat difficult to pull off consistently (this can already happen with revive WP, yet it is extremely rare).

Infantry weapons aside, any AV weapon should give equal rewards for a hit. Whether that be 1 AV nade, 1 swarm volley (or partial volley), 1 plasma cannon hit, or one forge hit. And vehicle destruction WP needs to be massively increased. To the tune of 1000 WP for a tank destruction, 500 for a dropship, and 250 WP for a LAV (500 for LLAV).

I think 15-25 WP per hit on a vehicle is reasonable. 15 for LAV's, 20 for LLAV's and dropships, and 25 for tanks.

That's far too excessive.
250 WP for LAVs? The sky will rain with orbitals and tears.
Especially if you have rewards for just a hit rather than damage. If you have it so that a partial swarm volley generates 15-25 WP, then that potentially means a full swarm volley gives you 90-125 WP. That's ridiculous.

Orbital requirements needed to go up when we got 6 mans squads, yet it hasn't. Don't disregard this just because of that. Obviously it would need to be changed before we get vehicle damage rewards, but that doesn't mean it is excessive or unreasonable. Orbital WP requirement needs to be moved up somewhere between 4500 and 6000 WP. it should be cherished as something rare and extremely important/match changing, rather than how it is now, spammed because it is so ridiculously easy to obtain. I remember the days when my squad would curse me out (or be upset with me) because I failed on a orbital cause I wasn't patient enough. That needs to return.
