As long as 1 HAV pilot can kill infantry, it should take 1 AV player to kill them.
Any, and every AV weapon should be effective at destroying vehicles, because every AV weapon (bar REs and AV Grenades) require you to give up your AP abilities, which it the main sacrifice in being able to destroy vehicles.
If an AV weapon can't destroy all vehicles, they shouldn't be forced to make the sacrifice that's made to destroy vehicles.
Furthermore, nobody would use anything other than Heavy AV weapons, negating the reason for other AV weapons existing.

Yeah.
That's pretty rare nowadays.

So being an tanker who uses AV is being bad?
There are many vehicle pilots who also use AV weaponry as well. Heck, you yourself used AV on all of the occasions I've seen you. By your standards alone, you are a bad vehicle pilot.

He was born with his head firmly stuck up his nether region. Never has he said "you know, let's see what it would take to double or triple team a tank with AV." No, it's always "I can't destroy a tank with flux grenades and a mass driver, nerf them."[/quote]
I have seen what it's like to use 3 people on AV. While hilariously effective, this does not show a sign of balance. To place things into perspective, let's look at this.

Was this balanced? No, not in the slightest.
Despite being able to kill 1.6 Somas with a MD, I have never once suggested that vehicles should be killed by an AP weapon. That would completely distrupt the balance cycle ( AV GëÑ HAV > I > AV) even further than it already is.
I know we have our disagreements, but if your going to make an inflammatory comment about me, please make a factual one. Otherwise it derails the thread while ruining any chances of it being take seriously

However, I sometimes see those people that complain about MLT tanks, using MLT tanks in domination and trying to be as effective as someone like me is.
Hypocrites, the lot of you. You live by double standards.
That statement is an antecdote. I've had vehicle pilots survive my 1.6 Swarm Launcher by using intellegence and superior tactics in-game, and a majority of them didn't use the forums. Did that mean that Swarm Launchers were balanced?
I'm not the guy who spams HAVs (bar my "APCs"), so I am not a hypocrite. You cannot judge the an entire part of the community based on the actions and thoughts of a few.
I made that very same mistake myself until (tankers who names I won't mention for obvious reasons) "slapped some sense into me and showed me that (tankers who's names I won't mention for obvious reasons) do not reflect the views of the entire community sub-set. It leads to nothing but inflammatory and repetitive banter, segregating the communities even further, and the guarantee that CCP won't take the thread seriously; which is the opposite of our goal here.
