By which I mean, there's no point in running them. A sica with a militia railgun can pop either of them. Why spend 400k isk on something that isn't any more effective than a starter vehicle?
Why are tanks such an SP sink, when with the exception of the cheap x2 turret unlocks, you're not getting anything of value out of them? |

400k isk - my alts cost 130k -140k
my mighty 600k WP unlocked HAV 1 and shield and armour mods 1
they are better than a militia tank
militia suits/guns can take out basic suits with proto mods.....I see not problem with tanks being the same. ( mine do not have proto mods) |

I'm gonna do a small segment on my youtube channel where I take a fresh alt and not spend any of my SP, not send him any ISK, and just troll around in militia tank fits to see how I do.
I'm also a god awful tanker.
I hate these new militia wonder tanks because killing them doesn't hurt their wallet, and it doesn't fatten yours, so you just put up way more ISK than you earn just to kill the things because they're annoying as ****.
Shield tanks so far back in the redline that you can't even Jihad LAV them just stack damage mods and two shot everything that enters the field. And people actually sit on the forums and say everything is balanced right now.

Because scrub tankers b*tched loud enough.
REAL tankers still want our rendering to be fixed and locks... we've only been asking since forever...
Since they keep removing a tier of tanks, soon only MLTs will be left to choose from.
But I also heard a rumor that more tanks will be added. Like ADV & PRO level tanks.

Do me a favor try fitting a complex module fit with proto weapons on a gimped sica and somas cpu and pg and lets see how far it gets you.
The point of a 479 or 500k isk is that they are more efficient killers than MLT HAVs. A Madruga with two complex armor hardeners can run them indefinitely along with two complex damage boosters that only have 5 seconds between module activations.
The gunnlogi can run 60% resists indefinitely with 3 hardeners or 60secs of 60% resists with a 15 second cool down with just two hardeners.
the point of the STD HAV is very similar to their drop suit counterparts. They give a slight increase in efficiency and module slots in exchange for skill points.
yes MLT can kill them but remember STD tanks are only a single step above MLT. the difference between them is barely noticeable from the outside but from the inside you can feel the effect.
When you turn a corner and find the entire enemy team.Oh Heck

Cause Gunlogi Missiles.....2x 60% resists......... dats pretty effing good.
But yeah I soloed 5 tanks in one battle last night in a soma....however I have always been better in a Soma than a Madrugar.
To a Texan like you, a hero is some type of weird sandwich, not some nut who takes on three Gunlogi.

Two resist modules will beat a MLT that can fit only one every time if it activates before it is too far gone. It then only has to wait for the MLT go into cool down and *pop*.
That's a pretty big difference between MLT and STD, a difference that is hard to find in infantry MLT vs. STD fits. Remember MLT is basically the same as STD but for added fitting costs.
As such we should expect to see MLT to be competitive with STD. |

Oh give it a ******* rest, if your Militia tank is popping Gunnlogis/Madrugars, then it's because they're **** pilots, bring your **** fit against me and you die :)
And I'm not even going to run two hardeners like the rest of the bad pilots in this game :)
