Seems legit!
I could see shields shrugging off our knives, but tank armor, much like dropsuit armor, should be damaged. It used to be that you could damage tanks with knives but it was removed.
Is there any explanation for this?

You are damaging tanks with your knives, and any other kind of light weapon too. The difference is that the damage is so minimal that it may as well not have an effect at all.

I think you are mistaken on the damage being administered, even in small amounts, with knives. And if it's so small as to be insignificant, it may as well be considered to be unharmful to tanks.
So again, why can't we do somewhat significant damage?

Knives can easily pierce Kevlar where as low caliber bullets can not so Knives are effective against armored infantry but a Knife vs. a tank the knife breaks.

OK.. Charged swipe.. basically a plasma cutter. I'll agree a swipe would likely bounce off (but not break).

I will always remember when me and 15 other blue berries attacked a red tank with assault rifles and SMGs, Pre 1.7 of course. I jumped on his gun and shot at his turrent with an SMG while the blues shoot him with their ars. Anyways he was helpless and we ended up poping him.

Most infantry weapons don't hurt armor or vehicle shields because it would interrupt rep cycles.
A guy with NKs or a SMG would then in theory stop HP regeneration on the tank allowing proper AV to destroy it. Tankers would have 0 chance then.

message from Godin: If you could, any weapon would really be able to do AV really, as many weapons have the DPS that matches large blaster turrets. CCP saw that (after they saw the squads of PR's shooting at HAV's and killing them), and nerfed the efficiency on everything but AV weapons and large turrets. Even smalls got nerfed. |

I can do north of 1400 damage with a charge swipe.
But let's break it down-
I am saying shields- 0 damage or very minimal. like 1%.
That means the tanks shields would have to be wiped out to even do anything. I am also saying that swipes won't do any damage, only charged swipes.
I'm seeing tanks with 5K+ armor, so yes, that would be 4-5 (or more) charged swipe hits to pop the tank.
Do you know how how hard it would be to take out a tanks shields, and then hit it with 4 or so charged swipes before they rolled off at LAV speeds?

That is a valid point, and I am sure it's not an insurmountable issue. I'd be fine with the inability to interrupt rep cycles, but still apply damage.
EDIT: I hid godin/roger whatever posts. I can no longer see them. I was very pleased to see now they just show up minimized. Sorry dude- I'll never read your posts again. TTFN.

One could say you want to keep tanks so strong you don't have to worry about anything. Just like they are now.
If a charged knife can split a heavy with 800 armor in half why can't it do similar damage to tank armor? And it's not just knives. If you cling to that, then you may as well move along. These are plasma cutters when they are charged- not sharp blades. They melt armor like hot butter.
Tank armor is no different than phatty armor.
It appears, the only reason installation/CRU/vehicle armor is exempt is to, once again, solely placate tankers to the end of lessening your QQ. You just want a win button that can't take damage.

Given the game setting- sure there is. I agree small arms fire would be insignificant. The equivalent of a light saber would be significant damage.
I realize you can't wrap your head around it. But, also, it's in your best interest to keep tanks as they are. I understand. I don't want you to QQ. But I would expect you to grasp the concept.

You want to know why knives don't do significant damage? When the **** was the last time you saw a soldier charge a tank and try to stab it? "Uhhhh but these are special knives". In this setting, armor would have become just as advanced as the knives. You have failed the forums. "Seems legit". Kid, feed your poor brain. It seems to be dying.

Are you saying that in real life you never see a soldier charge a tank with a knife? Because I never saw a madrugar, a nova knife, nor a dropsuit in real life either.

At best hypothetical- I'd have to flux a tank. maybe I'll kill it's shields.. depending. But let's say I carpet bomb the dude.
Now it is down to armor and I can knife it. But only charge swipe to for damage.
If a tank has 5000 armor and I am fully max skilled- LV5 knives, knife prof, and minja dropsuit:
I have to charge swipe it 4+ times to pop it.
-None of my damage resets any rep cycle -Hardeners would still be effective (including popping the shield back up)
The chances of a scout soloing a tank in that regard is nonsensical. It would be a rare occurrence, and certainly only the noobiest of tankers would succumb to such an attack. At best- a severely weakened tank on it's last legs would get killed. Most likely some damage would occur and the tank would blast off at LAV speed.
How is this OP in any way?

A knife would never hurt a car/tank. A plasma cutter would.
A knife swipe is just a knife. A charged knife swipe is a plasma cutter.

Do you comprehend analogous concepts?
A Madrugar is analogous to an Abrams. Nova Knives are analogous to military grade knives. Dropsuits are analogous to combat armor.

It's you who think tankers are so un skilled that a sprinting up knifer even poses much of a threat unless the tank makes a mistake themselfs.

It's a tank...a knife would barely hurt a car.
You realize all other weapons in the game hurt a tank right? The NK does 0 damage. All other light weapons have at least a 1% dmg impact.

People who try and put realism into video games are already failing. Please tell me what an armor rep is analogous to? How about shields? How about third person tank view? For every "realistic" analogy you can supply there are 10 more that don't exist in real life.
Its about creative solutions to a problem. Its about hurting the morale of your opponent and bragging rights. You think anyone that uses NKs are actually better off using them than the fine rifles? Its a challenge and its a slap in the face to be killed by an NK user. Its the same as getting your tags taken in BF.
A nova knife in the BEST situation would likely need 3 or 4 charge swipes to take down a tanker solo. Considering fat heavys can backpedal outside of the charge blade swing, I don't think tankers could be stupid enough to die to a kniver. Which is the point to including it. It gives us another challenge and gives you free targets to kill.
Those complaining about this are likely just worried about the morale hit they will take when a 200hp scout suit blows up their tank when they were stupid enough to let it happen.
Scouts would be better off using remotes to take out your tank then NKs (remotes do 1500dmg and we can place 3 on your tank easy)....apparently you don't see the "creative content" and "fun factor" this is supposed to supply.
