Scheneighnay McBob Nova Corps Marines Ishuk-Raata Enforcement Directive 4813	Posted - 2014.04.19 23:06:00 - [1] - Quote I'm not entirely sure how the WPs work, but I believe it gets you WP for the percent of health remaining that a vehicle has. Here's what I observed: It takes 3 volleys from a swarm that I use to take down a starter fit LAV. For EVERY volley, I get +75 WP, with the LAV destruction WP on top of that. If I use something stronger against an LAV, like a forge or a rail, I get the +75 for every hit, but it takes less hits, so I get less WP For dropships and HAVs, it takes increasingly more volleys to get a single +75, even though dropships are harder to hit and HAV are definitely more of a threat. In some cases, most notably with plasma cannons and large blasters for reasons I haven't yet figured out, I may NEVER get the +75, even when destroying an HAV. So basically, unless you want us to be scavenging LAVs for WPs, the system needs to be based on damage dealt rather than a percentage. I'm from the weird side of the internet

I to am a Proto Swarm Minmitar Commando and I somewhat know what ur saying. I think its somethign to do with percentages of dmg, and i notice whenever i pop there shields i get points also. I 2 shot lavs and i get roughly 200-250 points for it. and I 3 shot militia tanks and i get roughly 300 so idk what it is either. I do think its a percentage based somehow but who knows what ccp set the calculation to be haha What is the use of fighting if you haven't got a tolerable planet to fight over? 30 Mil SP Commando/Logi Grandmaster

My point was just to say that I'm not using a standard swarm. I had no idea it was that bad even at proto. I'm from the weird side of the internet

The Eristic Sad Panda Solutions 419	Posted - 2014.04.19 23:53:00 - [9] - Quote Farming would-be road killers in LAVs is lucrative business. +75 (drives away, reps) +75 (drives away, reps) +75 (drives away, reps) on to infinity. It's actually disadvantageous to destroy them most of the time. Tanks and derps seem to be less predictable. I would guess it has to do with a percentage of a vehicle's primary tank. I've unloaded on Maddies with the PlC over and over, taking out their shields repeatedly but never getting any WP, while whacking a Gunnlogi will usually +75 around 50% shields, which in terms of 1-to-1 hp is usually close to the same amount of shield as I've taken out on a Madrugar.

To be fair, it takes 3 shots from a MLT rail to kill a armour LAV. So they are just really tough in general. I wish AV nades got a bonus 100 percent dmg vs LAVs and dropships.

This backs up my old thread saying that base eHP needs a nerf while modules need a buff. Let LAVs that are actually fit stay tough, but none of this cheap-o/free bullshit.
