Why CCP? Just why?
The gunner is grossly over exposed and can be out DPS'd by most rifles still. (my gunner wears a heavy suit to gun)
The pilot and driver is exposed as and can be too easily shot out.
This is why in not one patch since Chromosome people have been using LAVs in every single way EXCEPT for what they were designed to be used for.
Possible solutions for driver/passenger:
*Use a roll cage on the LAVs like you had back in the very first steps of the game
*Give the LAVs a dang roof.
Possible solutions for gunner:
*Use the armor plating the Dropships get for their turrets on the LAVs (Shown here).

Perhaps it could be a TRUE fast attack unit if it wasent guaranteed death on the back of the exposed lav. And perhaps it could have a roll cage and allow the passenger to shoot out with his weapon!! That would make a lav a real fast attack as well and a terror on the battlefeild when AV is not present |

The 10% and AA that all weapons got didn't make it any easier on gunners either, closing the DPS gap considerably, even with the buff to turrets. |

Truth. It also dident help how the only effective lav, the logi lav, has a 50% reduction to turret damage |

Or they could just make a real combat oriented LAV, instead of those scouts. A combat LAV with enclosed crew compartment and frontal (and maybe side?) shield for gunner. |

The damn scout LAV was a joke, it was so much of a joke that CCP didn't even bother to mention they took out an the entire Scout Class LAVs in the patch notes.
but I digress
I'd be cool with having An Assault LAV that includes better armor coverage and damage...
but Assault LAV is redundent because it's "Assault Light Assault Vehicle" |

Now, The regular Methana can now stand it's own against low tier AV as it should and gets completely wrecked by AV as it should.
They may have screwed up Vehicles in general but LAVs have never felt more perfect as far as defense goes. |

Light ATTACK vehicle. Assault Light Attack Vehicle.
Truth be told, the proper wording should be Light Armore Vehicle, but I guess that wouldn't make sense for Caldari tech. Light shielded Vehicle? |

Oh, it's Attack?
Assault Light Attack Vehicles still sounds goofy.
The proper wording should be Light Attack Casket. |
