Have to agree with the most of you, HAV's are way to fast and the short lock on range and the current lock on time it needs makes it hard to unleash all your rockets. If I do manage to get all my 3 shots out they usually still survive by running away unless I got help from ally tanks or AV infantry.
It takes too much effort to take a tank or even a dropship down for what you get, they either should make the tanks slower or let us do a bit more DMG or increase the range with a swarm.
In it's current state I'm not gonna use my swarm launcher (proto & wp4). Running around with a rail rifle for now ![P](https://forums.dust514.com/Images/Emoticons/ccp_p.png)

In some maps, it could lock down all objectives from the redline. Why do people use that term " skill less " , when it takes skill to acquire the weapon and to go prototype ??? Do you mean that it doesn't take skill to use ??? Again I beg to differ . I don't know of a skill less weapon in this game and if I'm wrong then please correct me .
No, clue why they use the term skill less. Probably because they think when you got a lock they think you don't have to do any further aiming.
Wish it was as easy as it sounded, takes much more skill then just get a lock on a HAV, LAV or Dropship. You got to predict in which direction the vehicle is going, are there any obstacles that might block the rockets when they are launched, in which angle do you launch the rockets to minimize the chance having them hit buildings or obstacles. In which direction do you launch them when you got a lock to make sure they dont outrun the rockets and make sure the travel time of the rockets are as short as possible by predicting in which direction they are gonna move. Check what your fellow AV's are doing and get a good position to hit the vehicle.
HAV you want to try to hit from the back and LAV from the front for maximum impact.
Appearently this is skill less?! ![Ugh](https://forums.dust514.com/Images/Emoticons/ccp_ugh.png)
I don't mind the nerf and that I'm unable to solo a tank anymore, but at the moment the impact we make now with a Swarm Launcher is as if I'm trying to shoot a tank with a SMG. ![P](https://forums.dust514.com/Images/Emoticons/ccp_p.png) ![Roll](https://forums.dust514.com/Images/Emoticons/ccp_roll.png)
