When it comes to a Gunnlogi, do not try to go toe to toe with a Maddie. I've learned this very early on into tanking, but I notice some gunnlogi's try to go toe to toe while running a blaster. And they get blown up, go figure huh.
Okay, so newb question: why?

Blasters do more damage to shields than armor, armor tanks have more HP and better reps. Oh, and they are faster. There is almost no situation where a blaster Shield tank is not going to get pounded by a Madrugar in a 1 v 1.
mmmkay...
Seems like there are really two separate issues there. Because in theory, a madrugar coudl be fit with any turrent.
Are you presuming madrugars are usually fit with blasters?
So on the one hand, there's "blaster vs armor = bad".
Then there's "shield def against blaster = bad".
What if you have specialized in shield tank, but you particularly want to take out a madrugar with one. What's the recommendation? Have a missile turret fit handy?

Hm.
In a way, then, best attack choice solo against a madrugar, would be a plasma cannon from a rooftop.
You can nail him with the direct-hit damage (if you're good), and with a nanohive you can keep pounding him, but he will have no LOS to attack you.
'course, probably wont be able to kill him, but you'll at least get him running away like a little girl 
With two person, o course, just keep pounding him with ADV swarms or better, if you dont happen to have two tanks already handy ;)

Swarms are the way to go with a Maddie.
or a sneak attack with a cluster of REs, I'd guess.
