Note: I'm not talking about inflicting damage here, just asking how knives could even logically blow up a tank, how would it even be possible?

Knives sheathed in Plasma. It's like stabbing the tank with a plasma cannon round.

If nova knives are sheathed in plasma, why are they caldari weaponry?

Also, knives will have 50% efficiency against tanks, correct?

Caldari and Gallente had a shared technology background (as caldari state used to be part of the federation) it is not unusual for the two to continue making weapon systems the other can use and often the shared mixed groups between the two nations often employ the best of both worlds where possible.

Caldari's aspect over the nova knife is probably how WELL it can contain its plasma over the probable Gallente knife that would focus more on plasma generation instead. It would not surprise me if the gallente knife if ever introduced doesn't' feature a charge function.

I'm wondering why the game mechanics don't reflect this.
Caldari and Gallente equipment/class bonuses should have overlap and allow them to use each other's equipment with bonuses.

I seriously hope Legion will finally integrate gameplay and races. The current system is ******** to an extent that you could basically remove races from the game.
