But the strength of AV (and the continued strength of AV when 1.7 comes) makes them outgunned by a single person and expensive paper weights.

I've made tanks with 31k ehp (30sec, 4k passive, max skills iirc), and proto blasters. I've looked at dropships with 18k ehp for 30sec or 6k for 1min and a 15 sec cooldown with afterburner. I don't know how accurate this tool is or if any things changed, but so far I'm excited. I just wish I had my ADS... I'm guessing all the numbers so far are placeholder until we see CCP threads with titles like "Confirmed AV / Tank Numbers So Far," or later on, "1.7 AV and Tank Patch Notes."

AV wasn't needed unless one side could not deploy any tanks at all. If there was just one rail tank on any team, that put every single tanker on notice that they could be destroyed in 3 seconds from anywhere, and there was nothing they could do about it.

I don't see why CCP can't change values based on what someone queue's up for. 100% damage in PC, 90% in FW, 80% in pubs. PvE, when it comes out, would be 100%.

Theoretically, yes, because rep modules are for 20 seconds and a precision strike is what, 10 seconds? So yes, an armor tank can survive 2 consecutive. The way to kill them faster is by dropping 2 at the same time, but that requires teamwork and you can't allow that.

So no, this could never become Tank 514. It could, and has, been TAR 514 and Flaylock 514, and was Swarm Launcher 514 [(AKA Halo) before swarms rightly had their dumbfire nerfed], and still is AR 514 because it beats everything but the sniper rifle at all ranges.

There's no intelligent tanker that would have both hardeners active before going in to fight infantry, before they know if AV is around, and if there is AV, how many have it and how powerful it is. You're talking about something that will last less than 3 days, not something that's going to last for months. First one is for brawling, second one is for escaping. Any tanker with a brain realizes that. Stop brainstorming about a possible god mode for tanks. We've never had it and never will.

Pick up a scout suit and tell me that using HAVs is the hardest thing in the game. One person's ability to lock down entire squads and teams is not balanced.
