A Pilot's Perspective on Light Infantry:

* Once they commit, they should be made exceptionally vulnerable.
* Once they commit, they should have zero odds of success if alone.
* Once they commit, they should have low odds of success if coordinated.
* Once they commit, I should have exceptionally high odds of escape.
* Once they commit, I should have fair odds of repelling their attack and killing them anyway.
* Light Infantry should be required to use coordination, teamwork, elevation ... to run me off.
* Light Infantry -- even when coordinated -- should only prevail if I make a mistake.

You sound like a under 10 mil player who can't figure out why he can't kill. Stop qq, get in a sqd and actually try. Not this adv gear against proto tanks!
You need to match the level of threat. Not just bare minimum.
Proto on proto for killing tanks if infantry. We do as a sqd and we blow up 5 tanks and at least 3 ds
Work together. It's fairly simple tactics.

Proto Nades. The HAV's ability to ignore Proto Swarms is a fail and a farce. The HAV's price tag does not justify the teamwork required to take it out. The HAV's low risk of operation does not correspond with its threat level. The "work together" argument does not excuse imbalance.
