I think AV grenades should stay as they are. It's the LAVs that need to lose HP.

Unless plasma wants to start at 2500 it'll still be worthless for WTF damage against tanks. PLC is a 120/80% efficiency rating I believe, where FG is a 90/110. Granted with the"rof" of a FG it will out dps the PLC. Though I was being generous at the 1750 for proto PLC; I originally had it at over 2k, but figured it may of been to high when take damage efficiencies into account Harpyja wrote:I think AV grenades should stay as they are. It's the LAVs that need to lose HP. Simply, no . The problem isn't the hp of the lav's, its the damage output of the AV nades; b/c the av nades also need to be effective as well. At their current state, they are worthless against vehicles (even w/o hardeners active), which shouldn't be. One of the benefits of how AV nades worked, was it allowed players who weren't running with a SL/FG/PLC to have some impact against vehicles, as otherwise you had to run w/ your tail b/t your legs (even against militia lavs). So yeah, the lav HP isn't the problem, its the AV-nade damage. It's simply to weak
No AV grenades are just fine. Before 1.7, you gave up almost no AI capabilities while you got a significant AV capability. It was all about going YOLO, throwing down a nanohive, and spam those grenades at a tank until it blew up a few seconds later. I still remember that match where a couple squad members and I were running around in our anti-infantry suits with AV grenades, killing reds, then we decided to go YOLO on these two tanks on their redline and blew them up with nothing but AV grenades and some nanohives (I also only had standard AV grenades), then went back to killing some infantry on their redline.

That required a tanker to be both a scrub, and standing still. If you find yourself in AV Grenades range, then you need to go back to the academy.
That's because you're a rail tank scrub who only sits up in the mountains. I prefer to get up close and personal with my missiles, but that's not my point.
