More accurately, should an XT-1 Small missile Turret with 15% bonus to fire rate be able to dmg one? This is very specific question with no outside variables to be taken into account. Assume no AV, Installations, players, ect. Just a basic 1v1. I faced one today and it got me thinking as i was volleying it down and got very interesting.
You see, at first my argument was "ADS used to 1v1 triple rep maudy, therefore it should still be viable..." Then I realized that was an invalid argument. That's when it hit me to ask the question again and couldn't find the answer because I started to see a different picture... it isn't the ADS that's doing the damage... its the front mounted turret with a bonus it receives from being mounted on ADS. Everytime someone complains about something being op or sucky, it's always the weapons not the suits. Even when people complained about scouts... it wasn't the suits themselves but the equipment that allowed cloaking in combination with the shotgun. But it was always different with vehicles. Vehicles were either op or not viable.
So I'm focusing on the turret with the buff it receives from the ADS. Should an XT=1 Missile Turret with 100 missile standard capacity divided into 6-8 missile clips be able to bring an triple rep maudy's hp down to zero? If yes, at what point should it occur? How many clips should it take? and why? If not, what is the reasoning? Assuming every missile hits with no breaks in between aside from reloading time in between clips, maudy has no hardeners, and ADS has no DMG amp modules. Skills are all lvl 5 related to maudy's armor rep modules and skills that affect the turret.
I would like the turret to eventually take it down. But I can not find any conclusive evidence as to why it should or should not be able to take one down?
Let's discuss. Eventually I would want to get into real in game scenario that includes all variables that could affect outcome, but for now we are taking a blackbox approach. I am really fascinated by this topic and hope you guys can contribute to it.

I guess i'm in agreement too. An ADS with a proto missile turret should not be able to kill a triple rep madrugar. It sucks but oh wells. It would be nice if we could fit a 2nd or 3rd turret but the survivability for a single turret is already low enough. Adding another turret would be suicide... not to mention super expensive. Thanks for staying on track. I'm surprised most of you did.
Guess the real problem isn't mechanics but getting blue berries to work together. But that's been a problem since before I starting playing this game.

Yes.
Can a ADS be reasonably expected to kill a tank in current their state?
Nope.
Are stacking heavy vehicle reps still OP?
Yep.
I can easily pop sica's and soma's. Gunlogi's and none trip rep maudys take 6-8 clips but still popable. But for some reason triple rep maudy just wont die. lol. I that led to this discussion.

However, you're part of the exception, certain not the standard. In no way shape or form should ads statistics be balanced around your flying lol.
ok ok.... but that's what im getting at... if i cant pop a triple rep maudy... imagine how much the standard tickle the tank. lol.

I like this argument. Never thought of that
