I'm rather curious what the average SP requirement for a decent vehicle fitting is at the moment. As of late, I've been getting quite bored with Dust and I'm hoping to revitalize the game for myself and thus, have been considering missile fitted Gunlogi's or an ADS. I've been out of the vehicle field for quite some time and thus I'm not certain what the SP requirements are anymore. I only had about four million SP invested in vehicles before 1.7 dropped, which while it wasn't much, gave me a few enjoyable tank fittings to play around with. Obviously, with less than four million SP saved at the moment, I'm not expecting to get the best, but I'm wondering if I can manage a halfway decent missile tank or ADS fit with what I've got.

To get viable I'd say between 2--3 Mill SP for a tank.

To get competitive probably 5-6 million.

And to get prickish to kill, adaptable, and hyper competitive probably about 15+ Million.

Also if you want to test Missiles, Rails, or Blasters let me know and I'll drop you one.

Though honestly, if I were you, I'd invested all I could into it, this will save you time and much tears.

At minimum 3 mil. I started off with proto missles and a good python fit, but dont go python, seriously. Dont put anything in caldari or gallente dropships, get at least at1 missles, get armor fitting and reps at least lv 4. Im maxed and i wouldnt mind using that, you could make a good incubus fit with that .

HAVs take more user know-how than SP. A cheap-ass low-tier tank will perform just as well as a proto tank. pé¦pâ+pé¦pâ½pâäpâ¬pâ¦pé¦pâ¼pâ+pâêpü»sñ¬S+ïpéè

Or a Python? :) Yea, I know there was a channel for this awhile back, but I forgot it. Nova Knives are best sidearm.

All tankers are supposed to be pricks, annoying whining little morsels fit only for stomping on! I, uh... I mean... Yay~ Though I'm already familiar with rails and blasters, both this build... Sighs And what they used to be. I've never used a missile tank before though. It was the only turret I never bothered speccing into back in Chrome and early uprising. Doubt I'll be putting that much SP into tanks though, not when they're like they are. The Gunlogi is the last bastion of hope for me, and one of the few places I'm hoping to get some good nostalgia over my old Madruger. Nova Knives are best sidearm.
