Learn to use them you bads, I'm demoing tanks right now with proxies.
All BPO fit costs 22k and let's me destroy tanks with ease, especially the ones that like to chase me while I'm firing an AR at them. And if you seriously need a Tanker to fit an AV suit for you, fine.

Fuckin' ta-da, now find a road that tanks drive down (pay attention, most tankers follow routes), place them in two/three lines in tight formation, but covering the road, you can place four of the standard and five of the advanced AT THE SAME TIME (9x750 people.) and now go do whatever you want. Or you can be me and sit there, wait for the tank, shoot him a few times and let him come to you, watch him go boom OR chuck an AV grenade if for some reason he didn't hit all your mines.

Meh. I've been doing the same with my Logi suit. Even before 1.7
Except replace the F/49s and F/45s with Boundless REs/PEs.
Because that extra blast radius matters.

I like to keep mine simpler, 22k suit to take out a 70-500k tank is always fun.

Well, the ADV remotes work just as well. But anything with the word Boundless looks incredible on the kill feed, and rolls off the tounge.
See: Boundless Assault Mass Driver.
Now that's justice right there.

STD Proxies only do 500 DMG...so you place 4 of those 2k damage. 5 ADV Proxies do 3750. So 5750 total damage leaving absolutely no room for error.
How do you place? Triangle is probably the best. Now you have to ensure that the tank hits EVERY SINGLE one which is hard if they do not to come straight down the middle of a road.
Plus if a tank survives he'll just zoom off to reheal. If you stay around your mines the entire match then you have completely removed another infantryman from the battle.
Also tanks completely override whatever you set by using hardeners.
It's great for trolling a tank a two but to take down a specific tank it's almost impossible. |

Stats say 750 for all Proxy, so what makes you say 500? Also I place mine in a sort of octagon shape, to get the full effect as placing them in triangles, they go over them and miss the first line it seems. You need to watch other tanks to get a general idea of where others will go, most players do the same thing and will follow distinct paths so it's quite easy to drop a load of mines and not fail unless they're using their hardeners.
Eh, you say that, but I've targeted specific tanks and won. Oh and as an additional tip, want to beat other tanks with a militia blaster tank with little effort? Place mines on road, hide tank behind it, see enemy tank, back up and watch the overconfident tanker come charging in and die because you've turned to run and he's not bothered with his hardeners ^_^

Legitimately not bullshitting, All I see on here is "Waaaah tank spam", and yet when I get these mines out they disappear very quickly. Sure you've gotta be smart about your placement and understand it from a tankers perspective, but how about you htfu and get good :)

Indeed. The one time my forum posting OCD doesn't kick in and I edit my post right after posting it. I will not go back and edit it now in your honor.
Anyway, I'm not sure if this thread is a parody or legit. The original quote here's "he's not bothered with his hardeners" implies that the trap is completely ineffective and that the enemy does not give any fucks because of his hardeners.
That goes against the original post that seems to be saying that mine traps are the way to go and that people QQing about tanks just aren't doing it right.

He's not bothered with his hardeners because he hasn't got a clue what's about to happen, I shoot him with my rifle and he charges forward and pop, dead.

- Amarr Logistics is slow as all hell; why not use Minmatar Logistics? IMO, the SMG isn't worth it when you're packing an Assault Rifle. I'd use a Combat Rifle, myself.
- 5 HP/S repair and you choose a militia repair? Why?
- All 9 Proximity Explosives, assuming they all hit, would not drop my Gunnlogi's shields while it's permahardened. You'd need them all to hit along with multiple grenades. I'm not falling for this unless I am extremely tiredGÇôif I am tired you can literally run up to me, jump on me, place all 9 REs, dance in front of me and blow me up; just ask Demon Buddha, he did it when I was vegging out.
- Why not use Remote Explosives with the Proximity Explosives to boost the damage?
- They beep; every one of these traps that I've been unaware of and started to drive over for several days, I've stopped and popped with my Blaster before taking substantial damage. I've popped two today that I can remember and a few yesterday, too.
- If you shoot at me, I will kill you from 150m away with my Blaster unless you go around a corner, at which point it's pretty obviously a lure and not a panic induced reflex.
- I don't follow a definitive pattern unless the area has already been secured. I go where I am needed. I use certain roads, obviously, but you can't cover them all and the high-traffic ones (such as the bridge with A on it) are far too obvious to work most of the time. Small maps are easier to lay traps on but bigger maps are a pain, especially ones with a lot of open ground.
I don't die to a lot of REs and PEs, even though multiple people use them on me in every match. I blow up most traps or they don't kill me. Players running up to me cannot place enough to damage me substantially before I back away and kill them. Only LAVs seem to be consistently successful. Then again, I listen for the beep, don't go over high traffic areas unhardened if possible and don't follow players shooting me with ARs; instead, I shoot them using the same sight line until they die or ignore them.

Its a method that works, provided the tanker you use it on is stupid enough not to have hardners turned on whilst in an active battlezone.

Come on Jason, Your entire post is BS and you should know it.
First of, laying traps for the tanks to drive over is not "proper AV play", we're talking more about area denial here, like mining the entrances to a city.
That entire fitiing you post is utterly stupid, no good groundpounder would ever use a fitting like that.
I do however think that the Whole vehicle mechanic is way more fun now than earlier, tanks are much cheaper leading to actual fights, not the pussyfooting we've been used to from most tankers since early beta, and yes this goes even before that major AV buff. (And I do understand that People wanted to protect their 2M isk asset.)
The mines are good enough as they are IMO, but not really any form of effective AV short of area denial.
Here is what I do:
I must use 2 dampeners, and 1 stamina mod just to be able to get Close to tanks, which basically depletes all my low slots, no armor here. Then I fit a set of Remote explosivers, a skanner which is needed to track these riddiculously fast tanks and a set of proto AV nades.
I have to sneak up/flank a tank and be Lucky enough to not get spotted by him, any infantry or indeed the other 5 tanks that buzzes around him. When that is done I have to spend (I dunno for sure) about 6-8 Seconds deploying my REs which he needs to stand still for me to use With accuracy enough to hit will all 3 that I do need. Then I have to step back a little, blow the mines and finish him of With my Lai Dais.
I've done this lately and managed to take out about one tank per 2 hours of game time I would Guess. It Works but it is insanely frustrating a lot of the time and the odds ore greatly stacked in favor of the tank, I die a lot of times doing this, its very difficult sometimes. And this is putting a 205 K isk and 25 Mill SP suit up against a 70K tank With no skills and it gets frustrating, at least it would be if my isk account hadn't been as big as it is....
And With the exception of the Amarr logi, you have to choose between carrying mines and nades With a logi suit or a LOL swarms/smg av nade loadout With an Assault or scout suit. Combining swarms, nades and mines just isn't viable except for the commando suit....
The only truly effective Counter to tanks these days are other tanks and that is obviously wrong.
Personally I would be satisfied With a New Version of the RE's meant for vehicles working the same way but With a bigger bang, having to put 4 of those Things just to blow up an unmodded militia tank seems a bit eccessive no?

Yes do this while ive put a IED on the road would love to see the result. -6 remote explosives and 3 prox mines as trigger units in FW. Thats 11250 HP damage in a single blow. good luck tanking that.

Multiple enemies use them on me every single match. You know what I die to? Tanks, Rail Gun Installations and the occasional coordinated squad of Forge Gunners. I see the talk, I never see the walk. If I see you in a match and you consistently kill me with explosives without a LAV, I will concede that everyone else just sucks at them or you're just awesome with them. Until then, I will continue to roll over explosives hardened, shoot them for free WP and enjoy all the Scouts running at me and dieing trying to place them on my hull.
Why, just today, someone planted a trap and ran around a corner. I shot the explosives and got a kill assist because, apparently, they killed HIM instead. That about sums up my experience with explosive traps.

Yes do this while ive put a IED on the road would love to see the result. -6 remote explosives and 3 prox mines as trigger units in FW. Thats 11250 HP damage in a single blow. good luck tanking that. If I knew they were there, I'd shoot them. Regardless, a double hardened Gunnlogi can soak up 18400 HP explosive damage. An extended Gunnlogi only needs a single hardener and has 1000 HP, 2500 after resists left.

All BPO fit costs 22k and let's me destroy tanks with ease, especially the ones that like to chase me while I'm firing an AR at them. And if you seriously need a Tanker to fit an AV suit for you, fine.

Fuckin' ta-da, now find a road that tanks drive down (pay attention, most tankers follow routes), place them in two/three lines in tight formation, but covering the road, you can place four of the standard and five of the advanced AT THE SAME TIME (9x750 people.) and now go do whatever you want. Or you can be me and sit there, wait for the tank, shoot him a few times and let him come to you, watch him go boom OR chuck an AV grenade if for some reason he didn't hit all your mines.
I have made better experience with remotes, proxies are not reliable enough, they work only great on certain maps. Remotes works on every map and I can use them on null cannons or jihad LAV's as well. All in all more flexible...
But may be I will give them a try.
But its always a bit amusing to see how tankers try to justify their deathmachines by saying AV is fine...reminds me strongly on the old Tac AR users saying the Tac was fine...

Well, the ADV remotes work just as well. But anything with the word Boundless looks incredible on the kill feed, and rolls off the tounge. See: Boundless Assault Mass Driver. Now that's justice right there. Lol Attim you're an idiot for that one....

One battle, my team (mostly myself) set up a huge-ass pile of proxy mines on a bridge.
An enemy HAV drove directly over them. None of them exploded.

That and I rolled over them hardened if there were a couple left. They won because my team sucked but I went 18/1 (1 death to LAV in final few seconds by random guy) anyway.

I don't believe this. Why? REs kill tanks not Proximity mines. Scouts + RE's are how you do it. I killed a hardened Sica today, but like hell I was going to do it with Proxies.

If a scout runs out of all ammunition behind enemy lines, they did something right.

I've done it, perhaps it's just luck. Got some R.Es on the suit now and chucking them at things is quite fun, I'm also using the Proxies with my tank now and it's just hilarious, I use them to protect an area I'm not looking at, defends me from Jeeps, I put them on a road when I know there's another tank and bait them, they lose half their HP before their hardeners are up and then I just go to town.

@OP
So the trick is to use a logi suit for AV instead of using to be a logi?
I get it now it all makes perfect sense.
I would rather look bad and win, than look good and lose.

REs while already tanking seem like they could be effective, I'll give you that. I'll try that later if I'm not in a Dropship; they work well with my hack and drive style, too.

Which they replace even quicker than you take out and are now on high alert .

Ive seen tanks trying to use their hardeners but they all insta popped regardless if it was a armor tank with a hardener or a shield tank.

Ive seen tanks trying to use their hardeners but they all insta popped regardless if it was a armor tank with a hardener or a shield tank. I survive around half the RE LAVs that connect. Usually I die because most LAVs are not RE LAVs and I don't want to burn 2-3 hardeners tanking the blow, or they get me from behind.
Regardless, mines on the ground haven't been very effective against me. Maybe if everyone spammed them everywhere. LAVs are useful, but you shouldn't need to resort to them to take me out. I would rather RE LAVs be less effective (still enough to pop unhardened tanks) but regular AV, such as swarms, be more effective.

So basically, you remove one infantry from the map in the hopes of baiting a tank worth 100k tops, with more hopes of killing it before it dashes away only to come back fully healed in 20 seconds flat?
The only counter to a tank is having 2 tanks on your own side, if they have 2, you need 4 and so on so that you keep tank dominance, loose it and yer getting farmed.

Again - a zero-sum game. Why try and bend your fit that you have to be very lucky with to actually kill a vehicle and make you useless against other infantry when you could just summon a tank and be more effective against both. |
