Let's see:
1- destroying a LAV is neigh impossible with a nitro equipped, and just straight up impossible when a hardener is also added.
2- driving away isn't going to happen either, as by the time you see it, it's already too late. you have to be lucky and already be moving to have a chance, and that's if it's behind you, in which nitro and denied.
3- Gallente LAV's have not much of any trouble on "bumpy terrains", so there's that.
4- And that matters why? 30k vs. 500k, or free vs. 500k. it doesn't add up at all. Period. |

"Railguns are broken"
reads in english to: "I can't 3 shot a guy, so now I can't kill anything, because I suck"
Anyways, let me tell you all that's wrong with that:
Your situational awareness requires you to be looking for targets, correct? Well, then, there's two things wrong with that:
1: Can't look for JLAV's while being shot at
2: Can't rapidly look around a vehicle 24/7 like infantry can, as turret speed is locked
Also add in the fact that due to the nature of blasters, you have to be close to the enemy to actually hit them, therefore being in their area of control a lot, you're prone to being insta ganked by a JLAV.
And no, I know they are coming, I can't do anything about it 99% of the time. |

Most people don't have to. 90% of the community has free BPO LAV's.
Remotes only cost between 3-15K.
So that generally is a hyper fast 3-15K Cruise Missile (requiring only Remote Explosives 1) destroying a 300K+ ISK HAV.

Jihad Jeeps are a novel tactic, and I like their presence. However, they are way too cheap for their effectiveness. I suggest a limit to the a.Lunt of RE that can stick to a vehicle. 3 seems good. This so t outright kill a tank, but weaken it enough to retreat, or finish it off if its wounded.
Should such a limit be impossible to add in, I would remove it completely and have re only stick to non friendly surfaces like walls and hostile vehicles.

JLAV =/= AV JLAV = broken tactic that for some reason infantry won't let go that should have never existed. And no, I enjoy actual AV, as they give myself a challenge. JLAV's does no such thing; only brings rage.
By the way, where else am I supposed to pull a 500k (my only HAV fit) out then? |

No, I do not, yet when I do, it's the most bullshit death that can occur to me (second is AI turrets sniping across the map). I don't like to die to bullshit. |

That is a legit kill and rightfully so. Takes time to prep and it's trickier on bumpy terrain than you can imagine.
It actually gives my tanker alt good laughs everytime it gets killed by JLAV. That's not too often as in many cases they can be popped even by small arms. About the same amount of lols in that case.
That's part of the brilliance that is New Eden, that is Dust.
It takes much longer to get iSK up for my HAV, invalid, and no, it isn't; stop using scrubby Cal vehicles. Also I noticed the word alt, as it's not your main thing, you do it for shitz and giggles......... kk, Not taking you serious. EDIT: ramming **** has nothing to do with New Eden wonders.
Please don't try to prove your point by trying to undermine the person you are discussing with. Alts, as if alternate characters, can be maxed out and serious as cancer.
In my case some alts have never missed their cap or any SP event so tanking skills have long been maxed and already that means higher SP than most of Dust playerbase.

It's ******* broken, and you know it. This isn't the "Spirit of New Eden", this is just broken ****.
It's not that LAVs can teleport next to you. Good tankers are aware of most vehicle deployments. LAVs can be heard and good tankers realise the risk of possible JLAV and prepare to face it.
JLAV user has to:
- Respawn - or run - to a distant location (otherwise there is a chance LAV deplo gets busted)
- Vehicle quota must not be reached
- Has to have peaceful moment to prep REs
- Has to find where the tank has moved to (weak tankers stay put as turrets, good ones move)
- Has to approach tank preferably from rear (to avoid getting blown)
- Has to be lucky enough not to be blown by small arms (or sacrifice more prepping by using other player's remotes)
- And finally has to hit fast tank enough to detonate - easy on flat ground but very tricky on rolling terrain
Above there's plenty of uncertainties or delaying factors. The whole process can take minutes, long time out of a 4-15 min matches.
Cheap isk-wise, yes, but isk balancing is worst balancing. The biggest thing is the price in sacrificing fight time on which you could be helping your team otherwise.

Smoky Fingers wrote:Same argument as ramship vs ADS, groundwise . The tools are there, except countering such tactics is tough and require complete attention on the task. Most of the time , vehicle users have infantry kill farming as priority over vehicle countering. I run missiles and rails; with my connection to the servers I play on it's a pain to get consistent kills with either.
Consequently, if I'm in a tank, I'm doing it for AV purposes.
Now, I'm an experienced tanker at this point and my fittings are high quality. I can generally manage a 2v1 against tanks, or against AV, or against a pair using the two.
The JLAV's massive spike damage negates that. If I'm engaged with another HAV, or with AV, I'm incredibly vulnerable to JLAVs in a way that I'm not to anything else in the game. Even a fully modded BFG is less dangerous.
In that sense, then, a JLAV invalidates and trivialises a huge number of AV tactics.

that's unfair... good tankers do just this. they harden up and back off... you cant shoot them through cover, forgers are stationary lest they have an lav ( and only if they are on the ground) swarms dumbfire into rocks and buildings, and by the time you catch up you have to start over...
also good tankers run with squads who back them up... so the swarmer is being owned by a scout, the forger is either being sniped, railed, or OB'ed and the only thing left to hope and even the score is a jihad jeep.
and seriously before remotes were sticky I was taking out lots of tanks running up on them or setting traps... so what? now I can stick them on my lav and suddenly I'm bad? a scrub? I need to git gud?
I say in all fairness any tanker who is getting obliterated match after match by such a "scrubby" tactic needs to get good...seriously if you are getting blown up that much that its an issue and like an insane person you keep doing the exact same crap that got you killed a dozen times before, take a look at your own skill level before you degrade others....

From now on, I'm just going to past my previous response (with minor modifications) to these threads, because it's always the same thread every time....
Baal Omniscient wrote:This is silly. A prof 5 proto assault forge on a fully bpo'd out skinweave heavy can 3 shot a fully fitted, fully specced, massively expensive ADS out of the sky for under 80k, a MLT scout can chuck a basic RE into a room full of proto suits and drop WAY more ISK value than your tank, a fully MLT forge gunner can camp a roof and pick off proto suits all day..... and you guys are pissy that a 30k car loaded up with RE's by a guy who specced into them for that purpose and who can navigate close enough to you to RAM you without you noticing is blowing up your tank?
Um... situational awareness much?
Teamwork?
Isn't that the drivel AV players have been hearing for the last 6-8 months? "Use Teamwork!" Well, have your squad let you know when there's a LAV in your vicinity. You're not with your squad? Well, you're not using teamwork. Sad day.
Player ingenuity. It's a beautiful thing. Rail tankers could (and on some maps, do) camp the redline all match. They thought it up as an effective tactic. The only issue I have with it is that there's no effective way to counter it since OB's can't really drop decent tanks anymore. jLAV's ARE easy to counter. You can have teammates set up proxy's which will detonate the RE's on the LAV when they go off. You can have a teammate with a swarm on standby to hit the LAV's and either scare them off, kill them or tag their RE's with missiles, detonating them (along with the driver). Or you can have teammates spot LAV's for you. Or you can have situational awareness since you can hear LAV's from a long ways off. OR you can combine some of these ideas and do pretty well avoiding/killing 99% of them.
Happy tanking, jLAV's are the least of your worries. ;) TL;DR: If AV needs teamwork, so do you.

I've seen friends use Jihads in action.
They really only punish bad tankers. Good tankers eliminate them from a distance, or have squadmates or infantry warn you of the impending doom. They set up good lanes of fire, and force them to approach from an angle that is easy to kill them.
Sure, it's still a scrub tactic, and yeah, Good tankers will still get killed by them from time to time. But I see no reason to completely eliminate the ability to utilize sticking RE's to your own vehicles. I do it to my LAV's sometimes to prevent theft. You leave one, and if you see an RE moving around on the screen, you detonate.
AV isn't in that bad of a place now either. The only real problem right now is a dropships ability to run. They can EASILY remove themselves from engagements. Afterburners need a longer cooldown.
Same with Nitro. Tanks escape far too easily. Nitro and get distance, and then turn a corner. Gone. It's hard to get enough Alpha to pop a tank in those scenarios.
