No. Your fault you specced into a broken, easy to use, fire and forget AV weapon that can solo even the best of tanks.

Edit: I just want to add, a few months ago, a friend and I got on a tower on an open map. I had a militia swarm and he had an advanced forge gun. The enemy had a Madrugar deep into our side, but we were in the middle. He dropped the Madrugar's shields and I launched my first volley. We both took about three shots and the Madrugar popped to my militia swarm. Like I said, easy to use, and requires no skill. That was one of my first times ever to use a swarm in a long time.

Swarms are not fire and forget. They are fire, forget, and "oh crap they crashed into a wall and know the tank knows where I am" weapon

Do you know the power of vanilla swarms? NO? Didn't thinks so.

AV is super strong because of people like me who have proficiency Lvl. V.

Any Madrugar's shields are gonna go to any AV. A madrugar is an armored tank, and it only has 1k shields.

And if that was a real MLT swarm, then that was a crappy Madrugar.

You clearly have no idea of what your talking about.

I'm starting to think you are the one that doesn't know what they are talking about. Swarms are Fire and Forget, I can attest to the fact that they hit walls and explode, but 80% of the time if you go around an obstacle after swarms got launched at you then they will just go around the corner, or over the hill, or, in one extreme case, under a walkway (to be fair, I think they fixed this last one, it only happened once, but the context was so specific it's probably impossible to test). Do swarms sometimes hit buildings and walls? Yep. Do they mostly defy the laws of physics to hit their target? Affirmative. Also, your logic is that your AV is super strong 'cause you have Lvl. V skills for it. Well guess what? I got shield, armor, vehicle upgrade, and turrets skills MAXED. Seriously, Lvl. V across the board, only exceptions are skills that don't give bonuses. So why is it even with these skills swarms, forges, and AV nades can get a higher damage output than my 900k+ turret, and one person with prototype forge or prototype swarms can bring me down faster than another tank? It can really means one thing; that these issues aren't about just getting your proficiency skill up, there are things wrong with the way tanks and av work at a basic level. Now, I would stay and explain some of this more but I have English Comp in ten minutes and I need to scram, ttyl.
