The maximum achievable Tank is currently about 1600 EHP, this may seem like a lot, but for perspective a Standard Assault Rifle carries 1,800dmg per clip which it dispenses in less than 4 seconds.
Now you also have to consider this 'Extreme EHP' comes at some sacrifices, mostly Gùå Largest Hitbox Gùå Slowest Speed Gùå Lack of Equipment
So what exactly is the problem here? Are you prehaps complaining about the HMG? Currently the Highest Achievable DPS from the HMG is 800 DPS at the Far flung range of 30m. After that it's effectiveness drops rapidly until it's effective range at about 45m. Now this sounds very powerful, but there are a few considerations to be made.
Firstly EVERY rifle in the game vastly outranges it, even the Assault Rifle. Provided you put enough distance between you there is nothing he can do.
Secomdly the HMG has poor accuracy even after 20m you begin to loose DPS because your spread is so wide, by the time you reach further than 30m the only way to reliably submit damage is to stop, crouch and ADS making you an even easier target.In short if you are having trouble with Heavies you either need to 1. Not engage them in the tight spaces they are designed for 2. Get good I'll let you figure out which one aplies here. You say to engage them outside of their range, and talk about damage per clip. But you do understand that at that range, the rifles lose damage, right?
It takes a special kind of heavy to die from long range fire. Ya know, the type that doesn't keep cover nearby.
Also, if only heavies are designed for close encounters then there's a problem. It means you need to bring a heavy to counter a heavy. This causes an escalation problem where eventually the majority of the team are heavies.
We don't want that with tanks, we don't want that with scouts, we don't want that with anything, and that includes heavies.

I've killed a proto with the standard version, granted it was only an amarr scout, but a proto none the less. So imagen how quickly a proto breach plasma rife can kill a heavy. On a similar note, why doesn't every rife have a breach variant to deal with heavies? Breach has less DPS than normal AR.
