It can survive Small Rails, Small Blasters, Small Missiles, Large Blasters and lolswarms.

Has 5 weaknesses, 5 strengths, seems like it's the most balanced thing in the game right now.

It will only succumb to multiple forges hitting the weakspot at the same time, other wise it heals all damage in between shots. Large railguns work. Large missiles can work depending on if you get the drop. If they're moving they can easily heal enough to keep rolling if one or two shots miss. Proxies and Remotes are equally effective against anything that isn't running 2 or more hardeners at once for the most part, since you won't be placing that many remotes on an even halfway competent tanker.

The rest are all essentially useless against this fit.

The main issue is that it takes no effort or thought on the part of the operator. We need activated armor reps back.

I've actually tested to see if a single Ishukone Assault Forge Gunner can take my triple repped Maddy down, and guess what? Yes it can. And I kill triple repped Maddies with 5-6 shots with my Missile Gunnlogi, so it seems like I can miss 50% and still kill the Maddy... Proxies and Remotes are equally effective against anything that isn't double or triple hardened, yes, but so are lolswarms, Forges, Large and Small Rails, so what's your point?

I admit for the most part it takes no effort but it takes thought to know what you can do battle with and what you cannot. Because whatever kills you, most likely kills you almost instantly.

EDIT: Fixed spelling... lol

I want to watch the Forge gun one. What is the absolute max they can deal to the weak spot? They have to have maxed out skills and be hitting that weak spot, otherwise you heal just shy of 1,500 hp in between each of their shots.

Why does infantry AV exist again? Who said it was OK? Please don't put words in my mouth. I'm simply commenting on the easy solution to the apparent problem. Of course AV needs to be fixed with respect to tanks -- and I don't think anyone credible disputes that. I'm simply commenting on the stupidity of people trying things that obviously don't work. And by the way, that fit is even gimped against other blaster tanks -- that triple repped blaster tank would have easily fell to anyone running a hardener and some plates -- much less remotes/proxies or missles (i.e. high alpha attacks).

But you should know that the only way a dropship can kill a tank is if it's unmanned, the driver is incredibly stupid, or the tank is already about to die.
