Well.
My original fit had a plate instead of a second hardener, but that redline rail tanker just cut through it, so I tried dual hardeners.
Didn't help much

As far as I'm concerned, tanks ruin the game with their imbalance. So that rail tank kinda did everyone a favour.
Besides you cant complain about redline snipers/tanks if the only place they can spawn is the redline.

Does Cat Merc constitute a tanker for the purposes of your approval? He's sure crying :P
See, this is why shield tanks are better, OP.
Fit double (or triple) hardeners and profit.
Not even triple damage mods are killing that in a hurry.

Since I can't reach redline tanks with my dropship and everyone keeps 1-3 shotting me I've taken up noob tanking myself... I don't do it from the redline, unless someones parked a tank too close to it, but yes I've gone with 2 damage mods. and it's retardedly over powered... I hope the tankers like what they've caused, because I mostly ignore the dropships, there's been a lot of sneaking up on tanks and 2-3 shotting them... Funny how I can lose 3 of these and still pull a profit, meanwhile 1 dropship that takes a crap ton of ammo and skill to fly/aim is basically useless in comparison, while costing 5 times as much.
Also with all the stupid redliners looking up at the sky, it's very easy to 2 shot them from a distance... I hope everyone enjoys the seeds they have sown.
Might I suggest a DPS nerf on all large turrets? Large missiles shouldn't be able to single spam absolutely anything at close range... Blasters shouldn't be able to mow down infantry and still be viable against other vehicles so slow that fire rate down & rails need to ditch that stupid 0.5 sec refire. |

Large rail turret range should be reduced to 300m. On most maps this will greatly reduce red line rail tank sniping. It will at least prevent one tank from owning half the map while completely safe in his redline.

The stacked damage mod Particle Cannon is the tanker crutch. Instead of actually tanking (maneuvering, shooting, positioning) tankers just sit there with their 2-pop crutch.
Their is no hardening through it, unless you have triple shield hardeners.
You simply have to be aware of your field of battle. ADSes and tankers complain about redline RGs, but its mostly because they get popped and didn't even know that guy was sitting up there.
Know his position, and his lines of sight.
Despite what Judge says, a rail gun can't lock down an entire map. Its only 5 shots he has to pop you. Being in a situation where a RG from 200-500m away got that good of an open shot on you is your mistake.
Don't just rely on hardeners and your build to do the work for you. Squad with actual tankers and ride along with them and learn tips of the trade.

Right, because they're so easy to spot every time, flying around up there with blue sky as a back drop...wait, that's dropships, tanks are those things that blend into the ground at range and your hit markers are telling you are on the other side of you. My mistake, I always confuse the two...

Yes CCP please take away anything that can counter OP tanks killing infantry and peasant dropship pilots that want to hover over objectives.
The redline is the problem. Fix the redline. Nerfing rails will lead to Nerfing blaster tanks will lead to Nerfing Dropships.

The problem isn't that glass cannon rail tanks can destroy tanks easily, it's that nothing else can.
...although they might be a tad too effective at it should alternative means for fighting tanks become available. |

Everyone keeps calling the tanks OP. They are just as OP as a 12 man q-sinc proto squad running with stacked damage mods. Getting killed in 2 shots by a tank or getting killed in 2 shots by a proto stomper is virtually the same thing.
Red line tanks are caused by the same situation as snipers; Almost every map is in a bowl shape surrounded by mountains. Where would you rather be? On the top edge of the bowl or in its bottom? |

Hmm, lets see.
12 man Q-sync: Requires 12 men
Tank: Requires 1 man
Seems legit.
Also, you forgot to mention how the tank is invulnerable to small arms fire.
IT IS OP, just that the Rail is even more OP.

I wish that tankers would just admit how afraid they are to meet infantry on an equal footing and leave it at that.

Certianely because Rail Turret is the Main AV turret in this Game.
Blasters for Infantry.
Rail for AV.
