You keep nerfing the ONLY ADS and HAV counter in this game, and you're right back at square one.
No vehicle in this game should be able to eat 4 blasts from an RG. I find the new railgun nerfs to be very balanced against HAV, they now have a balanced DPS, especially at short range and tanks cant be insta destroyed.

In my opinion, the only thing that's really holding back rail guns at this point is the overheating after 4 shots; given the increased firing delay, I think rails should be given one or two more shots before overheating to give them a chance in a tank v tank fight.
Do we have a calculation for sustained DPS?

it really was a combination of HAV operators wanting to not be as squishy against pre 1.6 AV (and undeniably they sure as **** were) and AV adamant arguments that their Armour clad counter parts needed drastic alterations of increased durability was given.
The result mixed with CCP's changes, made with good intentions, saw the power gap wider in favour of HAV....and the horrific age of Armour we have just experienced.

I think what you have to realise Atiim is yes vehicle pilots called for buffs....... this iteration of HAV is not what we were expecting and, in hindsight, not what we wanted.
We just wanted tanks to be more durable...... perhaps that could have be achieved by keeping takes as they were and reintroducing marauders.
It is correct to identify those who called for the buffs, yet not fair to blame them for what they could not percieve....I mean no one could have predicted Wolfman's changes, nor the huge imbalances in their wake.

You know I'm more inclinded to suggest a lot of this bulls **** is because neither side has been willing to sit down on skype and discuss it in a less biased manner.
And before the AVers start yelling "I'm unbiased and the preacher of balance".....lets be honest....nope...you aren't and neither am I.
I'm more inclined now to take tanks back to those UP days than keep them as they are.....tanks are boring now, way too easy, and not challenging or satisfying enough to skill into.

Charlotte O'Dell proposed an idea that we all go on Skype, and a lot of people agreed with the idea. Unfortunately, it never happened. Not sure why though.
I know I was so looking forwards to that.
For everyone's information I'm not against AV being effective against HAV. I'm all for it, but its a fine line between effective and..... loltankdead.......
I also want tanks to have a specific role on the map, my ideal one being the highest tier AV vehicle available to players, and require skill, ISK, and SP investment to operate efficiently.

I was looking towards it too. It may have finally put the V/AV argument to rest too. Well besides the Skill-Staking ADSs, HAVs already are the highest tier AV vehicle available. Now all they need is the whole skill, ISK, and SP investment. But how does one go about making that a reality while keeping things balanced at both the low and high-end tiers.
Or to have their current efficiecy broken down and allocated amongst the current skills rather than have emphasis on the hulls.
I certainly hope STD tanks are not all I have to look forwards to in Legion.
