it has actually decreased, we just accelerate and decelerate faster now. Pirate

Yeah? How do you explain a tank (sitting still i might add) i was literally next to when I started swarming it went away from me at least twice the new lock on range in a mere 2 seconds? By the way, swarms used to be difficult to kill tanks with, now it is nearly impossible. I hope you whiners are happy now. R.I.P swarms... we had a good run together.

That is not true at all. If you couldn't solo a 1.5 million isk madrugar with a wirykomi, then you were doing something wrong.

Tanks are not beasting over everyone else. They are being checked hard by other tanks, and drop ships. The cheap price tag means you're seeing more tanks on the field, meaning tanks are spending more time fighting each other than hunting infantry.

Hm? Scuse me, I hit 3 times, and the 4th hit, would finally have been the finishing move, but then it drove off. Yes, 3 hits of full proto volleys and it was still kicking, nothing wrong on my part.

that's cute, first off, the armor tanks have a higher top speed than shield tanks, they also have a long acceleration time. many tankers are getting around the acceleration time by using nos, which is completely fair. secondly you can't kill a hardened tank, sorry, it's just not gonna happen anymore. the good news is a hardener lasts 24 - 30 seconds on a shield tank if you can catch them out of cycle or alpha strike them with 2 or 3 swarms when they don't have a hardener up they will pop.

I don't know how armor tanks work, I'm surprised to see as many as I currently do. you may be able to kill them while they're hardened but I seriously doubt it. however it will probably take multiple people to do.

if you couldn't solo a tank with proto swarms in 1.6 you are bad and should feel bad.

I had an ADV Min Assault suit with Proto Swarms and ADV AV nades that ate tanks for breakfast. You could put 10 guys in that suit now and the tanks would just laugh.
