Seems to me that the reason it's unbalanced currently is something like this:
Assuming equal skill between AV'er and pilot, 1v1...
MLT AV vs. ANY Tank = Tank wins.
Basic AV vs. ANY Tank = Tank wins.
ADV AV vs. MLT Tank w/MLT mods = toss-up, but definitely slanted in favor of the Tank
ADV AV vs. STD Tank w/PRO mods = Tank wins
PRO AV vs. STD Tank w/PRO mods = toss-up, still slanted in favor of the Tank depending on the setting
The underlying issue is that MLT tanks are 1) cheap and 2) nearly as effective as STD Tanks. People can get MLT tanks with MLT mods, no SP investment whatsoever, and wreck people who have skilled deeply into AV.
Tanks need to be tiered such that:
STD AV = STD Tank w/STD mods.
ADV AV = ADV Tank w/ADV mods.
PRO AV = PRO Tank w/PRO mods.
Swarms could use a buff. MLT gear needs to be taken out of the game completely. And CCP desperately needs to put in some sort of PvE tutorial that actually teaches new players how to play the game. It will allow players to try EVERY WEAPON, EVERY STYLE OF SUIT, AND EVERY PIECE OF EQUIPMENT IN THE GAME. It will emphasize the importance of core skills, be they for dropsuits or vehicles, and...
Never mind, I'm going to make a separate post for the rest of this...

Didn't ask me but my 0.02 ISK goes to proto minmando.
ADV minmando has the same # of high slots and armor/shields for significantly less ISK.

Ok, let me turn that on its ear for you...

Do you believe this statement? Yes or no.
If yes, then large blaster tanks are OP...because they kill infantry before they even have a chance to run. Tanks have time to run for cover unless double teamed...but we're talking 1v1, so that's a different issue.
If no, then you're a hypocrite.
Just sayin.
