They're great! Huh? Triple Rep (2x Complex, 1x Enhanced) Madrugars are vulnerable to Large Missile Launcher fitted tanks due to the massive burst damage from missiles with a damage mod; lower buffer due to a lack of either a plate or hardener to absorb damage; and the damage bonus missiles get against armour. The Triple rep Madrugar works by drawing out fights where it's superiour sustained tank can help it keep going under constant moderate damage. But with the Large Missile Turret, there isn't enough time to get repairs going to keep the tank sustained, and thus it blows up. However, if you miss with enough missiles, the Madrugar can easily regain it's armour and then you might have some problems due to your long reload time, especially if you had to expose yourself to get the shot on the Madrugar in the first place. Does that explain it for you?
Hmm, do you tank?
While spot on about missiles against ANY maddie, you fail to mention how utterly useless any infantry AV are against said maddie.
Yes missiles will out alpha those reps with burst damage, but you neglect to mention the vulnerabilities you have when running missiles, aside from needing to land EVERY shot, plus the need for a damage mod. Missiles are mostly a joke. I know people that do like them and run them, but I typically blow these people up with great consistency. Railguns are far more consistent in most any situation.
Know what else has the alpha needed to blow one up (yes more so than missiles), the railgun. Boom, boom, 2 shots and yr dead mister maddie to my triple damage mods. Or my double damage mods with the nitro.
But I think the point wasn't about how their tank was unable to beat a triple rep maddie (only a blaster would struggle), but how utterly useless multiple AV were against it. At least, that usually the case. So are you saying that you HAVE to spec tanks to beat a tank? As a tanker, I think that is bullshit.
