The dark cloud The Rainbow Effect Negative-Feedback 2185	Posted - 2014.02.10 03:50:00 - [1] - Quote Seriously a gunnlogi with a blaster and 2 small advanced missiles will allmost allways win in a tank fight due to more possible damage output. Yes i do have little to none skills into vehicles but as experienced tanker i know that having 3 turrets is allways better then having 1 turret. Sure you could argue that you dont want blueberrys in your tank cause they could prevent you from recalling your vehicle or god forbid steal it when you hop out. But considering the price for tanks does it actually matter now? I find it kinda pathetic that the so called "tankers" now dont fit small turrets anymore but instead put everything on either gank or full on tank. The balance between that is the key. Having decent firepower and tank will allways trump a pure tank or gank fitted vehicle. So yes solo operated tank (1 turret=1 seat) is for scrubs.

About 3 weeks after 1.7 dropped I was incredibly disillusioned with tanking, even the slightest random aspect of tanking would get me interested again..... then I saw it. A 3 man Gunlogi with Blaster and 2x Railguns...... ripped my tank a part in seconds and left me grinning from ear to ear. AMAZINGLY Potent stuff.

Vulpes Dolosus SVER True Blood Public Disorder. 903	Posted - 2014.02.10 04:07:00 - [4] - Quote The problem is finding two other competent pilots and not getting blapped by rails due to lower defenses. Same goes for ADSs, I've seen Pvt Nummnutz wreck tanks in seconds with two gunners in a Python, the problem is it cuts way too much into the defenses, needs competent gunners, and rail tanks are always a problem.

Joseph Ridgeson WarRavens League of Infamy 490	Posted - 2014.02.10 04:36:00 - [7] - Quote Try fitting a Madrugar with a gunner, let alone two. It is starved for CPU. I had to reduce my complex modules to basic and advanced in order to just fit a Railgun and a Blaster (blaster because it has the least amount of CPU required). Putting in two missile gunners would hamper my fitting greatly. Gunnlogis do not have this problem obviously. They have far greater CPU and can utilize their Low slots to improve their CPU/PG if necessary.

What if I had the the tank alt for Weeks before 1.7 but never used it untill 1.7? Same for me. I made a HAV alt months ago, but never really did anything with it because I didn't have enough SP to really get into HAVs. When 1.7 came out I had a cool 7m SP to spend on HAVs and a bit into Assault Dropships. After dicking around with Blasters and Rail Guns, I settled on focusing everything on Large Missiles.

I usually run - even when not squadded with friends - a tank with a full complement of turrets, and only rarely cut back to 2 for a couple of tighter fittings.

That's a pretty **** fitting to be doing close combat with. Sure you have huge damage potential, but even Large Missiles can tear you apart if you don't use a Shield Hardener, and once your Damage Mods are on cooldown, you're extremely vulnerable. But I'm sure you knew that already. Plus, you're rarely going to take out any competent HAV pilot from behind. That being said, you could probably count the number of decent HAV pilots in this game on one hand; everyone else thinks they are hot- in their crappy Sica and Rail fittings.

Bayeth Mal OSG Planetary Operations Covert Intervention 40	Posted - 2014.02.10 09:58:00 - [29] - Quote Back in 1.4 I decided to take on the role of side-gunner. I maxed out all the small turret skills and would wear a heavy suit with HMG or forge (pilots choice) incase they wanted me to get out and deal with something specific. Mostly I just asked pilots "What can I do for you?" And would give them half of the ISK I earnt at the end of the session. It was fun but ultimately come 1.7 its less effective than just fielding 3 tanks and being organised. My tanking alt does have a few passenger builds set up around working as a 3 man crew, and have gotten some use out of the federation maddy. Having your gunners run Lai Dais so you rush the enemy tank and once contact is made they bail and bring a world of hurt. Ultimately for gunners to have a real place though the combination needs to be greater than the sum of its parts. Maybe when we get pilot suits if the gunners wear suits also it will provide another boost to the vehicle. Or just let infantry shoot whatever they want from the seat. A dropship with 3 breach forges shooting out from one side instapopping tanks? Yes please. That would be a fantastic use of dropships as they could all charge with the squad leader giving the order to fire, and would require 4 players to do. Teamwork FTW. Before anybody says anything about snipers, any DS that stops long enough and high enough for a sniper is gonna get a Forge/Rail to the engines. The idea of making the large turret have to be operated by another pilot is silly though. Next people will want heavies to need another logi to feed rounds into the HMG. Actually... If I could do that forge thing I would drop everything and just be a pilot... For some reason Assault dropships are CQC vehicles... Go figure.

So yes solo operated tank (1 turret=1 seat) is for scrubs. turrets really limit you on tank or other fittings with a very moderate increase in dmg, that could be out done by dmg mods. the real benefit of turrets on a blaster fit are not the turrets them selfs but the seats for pocket forge gunners or PLCs. All that said its less helpful for your teem to have men in your tank them on the field.....I find your argument with out merit.
