24 and this here is the very reason tankers are against the JLAVs I don't mind if you got RE's on the tank but when you can exploit and spam it like that makes it unbalanced no tank could survive that and for that very reason you shouldn't be allowed to do that or least not put that many on it. you complain tanks are op yet your JLAV is even more OP and it's free if there isn't a more unbalanced tactic in this game than I don't what is. This post is such hypocritical bullshit. Of course "tankers" are against anything that is a hard counter to their OP metal crutches. Jihad LAV"s are probably the only rock to your scissor right now, but god forbid anything like that is in the game. As an infantry player, there are many many ways I can be countered.. what a ******* failpost this is. LAV"s are not free.. unless you bought a BPO or merc pack. Remotes aren't free either. The current state of Militia Tank spam and the imbalance it causes, specifically in ambush matches, is probably the most ridiculous bullshit I've seen since playing this game (including TAC AR's, Flaylock, Fused Core Locus spam, district locking, etc) But please, continue to tell us how awful it is to lose a tank every now and again to someone willing to suicide themselves and their LAV just to take you off the field for a minute. right lose around 25-30k isk with almost 100% chance to kill a 500k tank yeah cause that seems so logical I don't care about the mlt tanks the fact is it can 1 shot almost all tanks CCP already said they gonna fix the mlt spam anyway so why not deal with the easy 100% kill chance that barely costs anything and when I said free I mean it's bascily free because you can put your RE's on a LAV with almost nothing on it and change to a free suit and basicly lose almost nothing JLAV. Costs nearly 30,000isk for boundless REs, same again for LAV, let's say 80,000isk for the total package. As others have said, your chance of reaching the tank in one piece is far from certain. Let's say 50% chance of success, even when you 'succeed' you die, so it costs about 160,000isk per kill.
Tank. Well fitted tank is 500,000isk. Gets you around 10 kills to 1 death if you're an average player, 25 kills to 1 death if you're a good player. So 20,000-50,000isk per kill, a small fraction of the cost of a JLAV kill.
Before you say 'kills aren't everything', I should point out that in ambush they are. Furthermore, a tank will have a much bigger impact on the flow of play than a RE LAV. No one ever ran away from an objective or hid indoors because a RE LAV was coming. So a tank is even better value in an objective-based game mode.
TL;DR - Tanks are OP, JLAV aren't. But I think you already knew that. |
