All but the most experienced rail tankers can be easily out-strafed with nitros, I haven't run into a missile tank in ages, though they would suffer from the same tracking issues as rails, and other blaster tanks tend to be shitfit Somas. Nerf large blaster tracking and/or damage, potentially. Definitely, however, vehicle damage WP should only be rewarded to AV weapons, NOT tank turrets.
How do you do it? I never get vehicle damage points with Blasters... Except on some occasions I do get 1 +75 when destroying an LAV. But never for HAV or Dropships. On the other hand when flying my Python I get a sh!t ton of +75s for every vehicle kill / kill attempt.
R.I.P. Pre-1.7 Vehicles & AV, you will be missed.

Repeat until tired of exploiting poor game balance.
Doing that I only get +50 for the kill and +150 for HAV destruction. If I use a rail however, I get +75 as many times as I hit the HAV minus the first and last hit, but if I am using triple damage mods and 2 shot the enemy HAV I only get the same result as with Blaster... 3 hitting results in 1 +75... and 4 hitting 2 +75, and so on...

He's saying that damaging vehicles with vehicles should not result in vehicle damage points, only when you damage vehicles as infantry should it give you damage points.

Huh, that's very weird. I was definitely seeing two +75s for every HAV kill with the blaster, more or less evenly spaced- after taking down the first third of its primary tank, be it shield or armor, I got the first +75, then the second +75 after the next third, then the +150 +50.
Well, the only thing where I get insane, and maybe weird WP is killing an LAV with the driver and/or passenger(s) still inside. I get +75 for damaging and then +40 destruction for blowing it up and then +50 kill for every guy inside the LAV and on top of that I also get +25 kill assist for every guy inside it... like wtf? Why do I get an assist on top of kill?
