When I see hardeners being used and I have to wait for the attack window to open
When that goddamn ADS escapes me for the fourth and final time.
When the LAV maneuvers smartly and avoids getting hit by my forge gun
When the vehicle driver is not a goddamn MORON, I feel satisfied with the kill, as it was a challenge.
Oh and any time I kill a tank or dropship with a plasma cannon. That thing is hilariously fun and still hard to use correctly. |

I give credit to good non redline tankers & will send gg if they best my forger. So many counters to tanks (proxies, REs, FG, PLC, jihad, NKs, swarms, Av nades, tanks, installations, holy **** there are a lot lol)so I can't hate at all. ADS!? Go **** your uncle. ONE mod negates the few counters, can't stand it.

Could you tell me more about vehicle weakspots? I've done a fair bit of forging and I don't really remember some vehicles dying faster because I hit them in certain areas. Is there a specific area to aim for? |

I always feel satisfied killing vehicles. Because they only die when they are bad pilots on the battlefield.
I had a adv or proto tank with a rail try to kill me at 10m distance for 2 minutes and I fired 48 standard swarm missiles into him using my standard Amarr commando. After his hardeners ran out and he used a shield recharge module, when his shields were depleted, I destroyed his shields a second time and he retreated. Then my 48th missile hit him and.....
+150 .......+50 WP.
He was a bad overconfident pilot.
48 missiles means 12 bursts of 4 missiles.
Edit: They USUALLY only die when they are bad pilots. |

Since I'm commando I always take a plasma cannon for when a tank comes rolling in expecting no challenge at the start of the match, or LAV's trying to.run me over or for when ADS's get to low to get a better shot. Even my standard fitting strips shields of vehicles in either one hit for lavs and madrugars, or two shots to remove shield based HAV's and ADS's
If Preparation is half of the battle and knowing is the other half, Then there is no need to fight.

I now play AV about 75% of the time. Mostly I forged, on the ground, but lately I have been swarming in a scout suit and really having fun with that. Minassault will be replacing that. I learned to hate tanks in 1.7 and loved watching them burn. I no longer feel joy every time I kill a tank because now bad tankers are not that hard to kill. Fighting a good tanker with a good build and coming out on top is still the biggest thrill in the ga me for me. I switched to swarms because the ADS and not tanks were the most devastating vehicle on the field. I also love killing LAV's when I know they have some ass with a proto HMG running around hopping and popping people. The scrubbiest tactic I see is guys in proto Calscouts or HMG's that roll right up to you and pop out to kill me when they know they will lose as tankers. It just isn't right that they get two essentially two suits to fight my one. Some of the top players do this, so disappointing. So yeah, I love running AV, but I like playing solo even when squadded up.
Because, that's why.

Lots of tanker tears, but vehicles still determine the outcome of most pub matches. AV now can determine the fate of the vehicles though.

hmmm.... 4 succesfuly shoots from forge to ADS ... yea EASY MODE .. lol about 2-4 kills at end of match.. sure very nice but 2000+ WP after match is not good payoff when you die 5-7 times from cooperate teams tanks and infantry hunting solo AV ;)
Fun is when they run to redline and only this...
Not much time left...

I laugh every time I do this to a tank: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JS8LAlWrKEE
With a forge I don't feel as satisfied
But I only ever kill tanks/dropships that kill me. If you ignore me on the battlefield, I won't care how many blue dots on my team you kill...I'm just gonna ignore you.

three shots.
Have to be proto fit though.
Most Dropship pilots are juking by the second shot and out of range by the time shot three is ready. |

Depends if the tanker is a nooby tryhard with a rail and a friend who jumps out to save his arse... That's a nice kill, prefer killing most tanks with other tanks/vehicles. |

I usually 2-3 shot ADS with my DAU ( of course prof 5 and at least 3 complex dmg mods though ) you don't NEED the proto but it helps elimate them quicker with mostly 2 shottin them with Cal sent with 4 damage mods

War Thunder tanking is much more fun.
I bet DUST tanking would be fun too with a tank only mode but all the point capping and infantry fighting really gets in the way.
Not really missing it. Maybe I'll come back if I can find two people to man my triple particle cannons, but CCP have removed Oceania and my lag in America and Europe was abominable the last few times I played so... no.
It would seem like wisdom, but for the warning in my heart...

2 shotting an ADS means they were running a sh** fit that they never should have risked a half-mil ISk Dropship with.
2-shotting a standard dropship is just business as usual. |

Indeed, yet I do tend to be opportunistic and wait for the right moment to attack their weakspot. Nonetheless, you are right there are so many crappy cocky pilots who don't fit their ships correctly.

I'd say I'm still pretty good, but you will only find me in a tank if your team calls one first, I will then continue to pubstomp you.

Hey man, I played against you the other day, just wanted to say nice forge skills. I was playing with darken sol and we were on the domination map with the bridge with A in the city on the right. I popped you once off a roof, then you proceeded to hunt me down for the rest of the game, and you got me once a good time. If you ever wanna squad up and terrorize vehicles, I'm totes down.
On topic, nothing feels more satisfying than seeing : MassiveNine(Gatsun's Forge)

I start trying the tank role with an alt and and with the Charlie ""hot-fix"". Doesn't seems useful to spend in tanks, am must of the time farming alts to recover loses. Scouts with swarms everywhere.

I'm a tanker in an AV team, I drive a Gunloggi with a main railgun, top railgun and front blaster, my squadmantes (we usually run as a group of 3) use a minmando with swarms/ACB and a Gallmando with a PLC/AR, we use my tank to draw other tanks out, strategic mobility, and additional firepower...we hunt tanks and usually have a sense of satisfaction, we have a sense of satisfaction for ADSs (in some ways greater than that of the HAVs, resulting in virtual High-Fives), but generally ignore DSs unless they are an immediate threat to our team (we usually assume they are a fledgling pilot, and would rather them get the practice)...but LAVs are just seen as free points.
oh, I run logi in the tank...sorry if I've been in a match with you and haven't revived you when you where calling for help...I wish I could see those from inside the vehicle.
Khanid Logi and Tanker, sometimes AV Heavy or Sniper.
I believe all these roles are support for front line soldiers.

im quite satisfied.. i like how i can change to a standard caldari light suit with 3x damage amps and standard swarms and drive off an ADS easly.. put the hurt on HAVs effectively and put an end to murder taxi's in record time
downsides are swarm missiles still seem too slow.. but seems somewhat fair so ADS arnt just free kills as they gotta use their burner and GTFO before they go pop.. i can get a good 3 locks/fire+reload+2 locks/fires before the ADS has run off and out run the last 2 or 3 vollys. HAVs are somewhat vulnerable unless they peek behind buildings or use negative ground.. LAVs just YOLO and peddle to the metal and just pray they dont get hit :P
so all in all.. id say 3.5 to 4 out of 5 on satisfaction meter
