I lost more suits than I have ever lost in a night, and I didn't kill a single dropship, nor a tank. One time I swear the ADS wagged at me as I launched the 3 death swarm, turned around and blasted away and came back to kill me.
Admittedly, not the best AVer out there, but, it's not only about not being able to kill vehicles, it's all the times I am trying to chase a double hit dropship or HAV, and get shot by any other infantry. I died 50% from not being able to defend my self against infantry, and the rest by blaster tanks or missile turret ads's.
Militia swarms being a threat is class A bs. I'm no expert here, but, those sound like fighting words.. And too many damage mods, come on. i was going for ultimate max dmg to "prove a point"
i dont recommend light av weapons on anything other than commandos. which btw would be great if you found a way to give caldari commandos a bonus to swarms.
the ability to defend against infantry as well as vehicles is the strength of the commando class IMO. |

Use a min commando if you want a swarm bonus.
they look like a caldari weapon. if thye cant change it, then remove the minmatar explosive bonus. nobody else gets bonuses to two separate weapon classes |
