Boom. Tanker Logic.

We plug ourselves into the HAV, so we can control many of the functions at the same time. Degraging ourselves to mortal ways of life is silly. no.

so more then a year now and people still ask this question? use the search function.

actual responces have been givin 100 times over in the thousands of other threads started with the same title as yours, use the search function

..... Also, the search function doesn't yield any real argument that negates this statement. If you believe otherwise, link please.

You need to watch some Mirai Nikki, Elfenlied, or Tasogare Otome x Amnesia (I know that one doesn't fit with the super-morbid theme of the other 2). None of that **** that gets on american tv.

Tanks can be taken down by a single AV person.

This thread is just silly.

If you look at the damage math (and my attempt to do so); look at a bare bone Militia Soma: has 1200 shield, 4000 armor

Current proto SL damage (using my skills/stats as base): 6x220= 1320 (per volley be4 skills/mods) x 1.12 = 1478 (w. prof level) x 1.24 = 1833 (w/ 3 complex damage mods) x .2 = 366 ..... 1833-366 = 1467 1st shot against shield

So right there, your ONE volley of Proto SL w/ all those mods, just BARELY breaks they shield of a militia no items/skilled tank.

Beyond the obvious problems with tanks, this particular fit has an interesting place and it needs a little attention.

That type of fit has no hope against even a MLT rail on a sica. It has literally no defense for alpha spikes.

What it does have is a complete gearing towards surviving waves of AV thrown haphazardly while it works a blaster. Is it right that such a fit is possible? Similarly, should a shield tanker be able to stack triple hardeners with an armor hardener and a heavy armor repair module?

The likely answer is no, and that the modules still need to be adjusted.

That type of fit can also be ultrakilled by any combo of mines, or AV nades and a hive. Or a combo strike of AV nades and a forge shot to the ass.

With all that said, that is only one type of fit, and it is easily destroyed by any rail, including installations, which will make short which of that type of fit.

Most other fits are solo material for AV players, and so the thread is still overly broad without need.

I've already given reasonable suguestions. This is unreasonable. My first point makes this make no sense lore wise, as we're not mortals, and I have to skill into it, so why do I let a bluedot use it?

Hmm, in EVE a battleship gets about five or so big guns vs. a little frigate with maybe three little bitty guns.


No, it's working as intended.


DUST and EVE are the same in that CCP designs them and they base their designs on a certain mentality that is consistent between the two games.

One person, one character (one vehicle). Just because you want to team up with other infantry doesn't mean I have to suffer dealing with coordinating with other people. You could run solo and it'd be the same GÇô one person, one character.

No, that's sad little scrub logic. See, you see me saying that you're bad when you want to solo vehicles easily, but your mind sees me saying that I should be invincible.

More tank related QQ. Starting to get old.

As long as the tank costs more than whatever dropsuit the other guy is using then they shouldn't be "equal". The tank should be superior.

Now apply this to AV.

Stack some complex damage mods, prof 3 on forge guns with an IAFG, and shoot the rear of the tank. Profit.

Or you can get a friend, where both of you are using breach instead, and instapop that unhardened tank before it can do anything.

Dust has an artificial cap on team side. EVE has a real cap on fleet size. You only get as many people that show up. If 10 show up, you're limited to 10. If 500 show up, you're limited to 500.

I don't see EVE pilots QQing when their fleet is destroyed 3:1. I don't see them QQing when the enemy fleet drops supercapitals and destroys all of their capitals because they didn't bring any supercapitals themselves.

I find Dust and EVE similar. If you don't have sufficient AV but the enemy brought in tanks, then you should get screwed. This whole "balance on a 1v1 basis" is crap.

In my tank i have 2 drones working below decks for the reloading of turrets and activating modules, other than that its me doing all the work

You cant prove otherwise

And this thread has become the reason why you dont ask this question on the forums, but like the hundred or so threads that came before it someone will simply refuse to use the search function and start this up all over again

Actually lorewise he's correct as far as I know. Capsuleers can control ships mostly by themselves by inking them together.
Should be a very similar thing going on in DUST.

The thing I wish they had in this game is a animation, or at least some time to get into, and out of vehicles instead of this instant spawn in/spawn out crap.

Lore

You cant prove otherwise

But this is the future where a pod pilot in EVE can use his ship with a skeleton crew, without the pod pilot it would take a full crew

In DUST with his pilot suit it only takes 1, the other 2 gunners offer nothing to the working of the tank, they dont increase its HP or its resistance or its speed etc

*checks market place*

Pilot suit tab is under light frame in the dropsuit section

Only a matter of time

I don'teven low why I get on the forums anymore, its the 8 same posts every couple days.....
