Oh well. Guess they'll be taking another beating from CCP's Nerf Bat.

Who believes that? What I believe is that nerfing hardeners so heavily was foolish and now you are complaining about the real issue and now willing to even slightly offer back a 5% resistance to hardeners....

Well, nerfing hardeners wasn't my solution. That was CCP's. Though I'vbe been pointing out the problem with the Triple Rep Maddy since 1.7 dropped.

Also, this guy does.

Armor rep fits are perfectly fine! They make you stronger against DPS-oriented AV, but you are weak against alpha-oriented AV. A missile/railgun tank will make mince meat of a repping tank. Trade-offs.

Stop trying to remove the little variety that is left. You cannot just nerf repping fits to suit your basic infantry needs because then there will be no point to a repping fit if it doesn't improve one aspect of tanking with a trade-off from another.

To Monkey MAC that said that blasters need dispersion, I say no. It will actually make it easier to kill infantry. It's actually hard to aim at moving infantry due to the precise nature of the blaster, and adding dispersion will no longer require precise aiming. Instead, blasters just need a flat 33% damage reduction.

I don't really care whether that does or does not happen.....as there will always be tankers AVers can never kill.

This assumes that there are a collective group of pilots who's skill exceeds the entire AV community, which is not only laughable, but easily dismissible.

A 1.6 Forge Gunner on a tower would still always go down to another Forge Gun user. Did that equate to balance? No because they were both using the same weapons. If something could only be taken out by an exact copy of itself, then no. Like if only a Tac AR medium suit could kill another Tac AR medium suit, it'd OP. But if a non Tac AR medium suit could kill another Tac AR medium suit, would you still call that imbalanced? The railgun is the only thing that I can consider truly OP, because I find that I can only take out a railgun Gunny with another railgun Gunny. /devil's advocate "By His light, and His will" - The Scriptures, Gheinok the First, 12:32 Atiim didn't agree with limiting tanks!

Hahaha, I was just enjoying my MILITIA - fit Maddy too much with triple reps giving me 345 armor/s. Whatever nerf comes up, it will still have a better passive regen than my shield tank LOL Edit: I'm over that excitement now.
