In your original fit u use a 180mm steel?
Edit: And a Local Power Diagnostic System wtf?

Hmmm

Got tracking enhancements? That's how you make a railgun a beast at Anti Infantry

Oops, I did it anyways.
Please, put SP into tanks, then you can talk here. 3rd time you tell me "You can't fit that", while it's you who can't fit **** because you have 0 SP into tanks.

What makes you think I'm not a tanker?

the fact that in every single thread I post a fitting, he comes and says it is not possible, because his soma cant fit it.

Running an empty slot on a tank is just stupid.

Polarized reps are not advised for sustained combat.

First of all...

DON'T USE ENFORCER TANKS

They're weaker (Less Power Grid), and 5x more expensive, just for a single slot...
Quite pointless really considering you can't maximize the effects on the 7 slot systems till you get nearly everything maxed, and if you fill all 8 slots on the Enforcer you're actually decreasing the potency of your vehicle...

If you can survive with an Enforcer however, go right ahead... Just remember you're actually gimping your stats by squeezing items in.

Ah I guess I'm just a bit tired cause the first fitting you listed had 8 slots on it, but i might assume it's for prior reference now that I look at it again.. hmm

Anyway what kind of tank are you aiming for?
Roaming Assault (Heavy armor, low attack)
Ranged Blasting (heavy attack low armor)
Hit-n-run (High attack, cooling, speed, low health/resists)
"Survivability" is a relative thing depending on how you build your tank.

Anyway.. I used a build with

Hi:
2 shield dampeners 11% (aiming for the 15's)

Low:
2 resistance plates 15%
repair (don't remember if Polarized or Efficient atm)
180 mm Nanofibre plates
Power Diagnostic 7%

Large:
Basic railgun

small:
Blaster on roof
railgun on front

I was aiming to replace the resistance plates with possibly one or two active hardeners, and that would most likely force me to switch to the Powergrid Expansion 15% instead of the Diagnostic.

The shield dampeners give a couple of seconds to react and engage the Active hardeners is my plan at least.
But currently the reps allow me to take a shot or two to determine the area around me if I need to retreat or if that's even possible.

You are one of two tankers who I know are better than I am. I'm working on it. I blew a module and got popped. If I had wanted to neutralize you like a douch I could have merely climbed the hill(using my nitrous), and had overwatch on your spawn. We've played that dance before, and it is far less fun than the fight we did have at the redline.

Pretty much every other tanker who tries that is putting themselves at a disadvantage, especially in pub matches. Not having either a scanner or a nitrous greatly increases your chances of either getting ambushed, or having an ambush be successful.

In PC, having the nitrous to cover openings, or the scanner to ferret out uplinks or hiding infantry, makes a large contribution to the ability of the tank to flex its muscle, and be a versatile asset to the team.
