This was troll funny to start but this needs to be removed. You shouldn't be able to nova knife a tank to death..especially if light weapons aren't able to.
Shield tanking is hard mode /period.

Bro, nova knives are super heated AF, of course they will melt right through the armor.

I would agree but they wouldn't knife it from 100% health down to 0. It would be a weakened tank that might be able to get away except for some scout that got close enough to finish it off.

Yup.... also when you read into the technologies of the Nova knife you realise that DAMN dat thing is crazy.
Still logically no Nova Knife could penetrate meaningfully 120mm if armour plating without spending a couple of minute carving at the hull.

I have yet to see a tank being knifed to death.
Having attempted knifing all different vehicles to death myself, it takes awhile. So long, that the pilot can get away easily if they aren't incompetent, or jump out with an HMG sentinel and mow the knifer down, OR the gunners can do stuff if the tanker bothered to use any teamwork.
I fail to see why this feature needs to be removed. Perhaps there are videos clearly showcasing why Nova Knives doing 100% damage is a legitimately bad thing, and I missed them...
Anyway, the entire vehicle system based around arbitrary health bars is lame, so even a rare instance of a lucky scout knifing a fleeing 2%HP HAV to death comes more down to the lame way vehicles are handled.
And did I mention vehicles are lame? Because they are. And the health bar vehicle system dictating when a vehicle goes BOOM-BOOM is also lame.
I am a minotaur.

I knifed a tank with standard knives on a medic fit... It was on low health but it was hilarious.

The only time I knifed at tank was when an incompetent tanker got it stuck in a city, tried to jump out and equally incompetently tried to kill me (I had time to realize someone was shooting at me for a full second, before waltzing over and knifing him, mind you, in a suit with less than 300 HP), then finished off his tank.

It was at an odd angle because of his getting it stuck.
I was waiting for it, because I have been killed by many a driverless LAV when knifing them, but somehow managed to escape any damage whatsoever.

Which is why the tank deserves to die if its driver is stupid enough to let himself get stabbed for that long.
I have been constantly trying to stab tanks to death for a very long time now and I can tell you that the chance of success is minimal at best, abysmal at worst. The best way to kill a tank is to get the jump on them, literally and figuratively, and use your most expensive nova knife fit. But even then, a competent driver can simply drive away and cause you to lose your footing on the vehicle as it moves and just force you to get off the vehicle and drive away. Worse still if the tank happens to have a buddy manning the small guns.
Only idiot drivers allow themselves to get killed by a knife.
I even managed to kill a dropship with MILITIA NOVA KNIVES while the pilot was trying to squish me on the ground. Unfortunately for him, he hit the ground too hard and thus reduced his vehicle's shield and armor down enough to finish him off with one swipe. I LOL'ED!
PS: All knives do only 50% damage to vehicles.
PPS: Yes, I did die when I stabbed the dropship to death.

you do realize that nova knives do 50% damage against vehicles. my buddy Vesperz & I have nk a bunch of LAVs, dropships & HAVs. you can kill it without being blowing up y it. the blast radius is 2 meters while a nk range is 2.25 meters. fyi all weapons do damage against vehicles just not much. I have used sniper rifles to kill them. (most were badly hurt from swarms) |

if you are complaining because you're losing your tanks against a knifer then you suck
Let me explain why.
1. Drive away
2. Blow him to bits
3. Drive away
4. What else can I say? A guy shouldn't have enough time to strip 3000+ hp of a tank before you get away.
A proto minja with charged knives and lands both hits does around 1100hp (dont quote me on this but its something like that). The charge time could be short, but it's not enough to blow you up. You're acting like the knives are a OHKO
Also, knives do 50% damage. That requires 6 or more charged hits on a non-modded tank. Git gud.
Let the blood drip from my knife onto your wound that gapes from- wait there's no gore or blood in this game nvm

On top of that, most drivers happen to be HMG-wielding Sentinels who pop out as soon as little old me jump onto their tank.

Damage is delayed so if you knife while backing up, especially from the corner of the tank, you can get out of the blast radius before is explodes. |

Yeah, maybe Ratatti will show us some "scientific proof" of a fat person getting in and out of a tank or jeep so fast with a HMG. I mean they cant jump over a curb but they can get in and out of a HAV/LAV no problem, lol |

No knife damage is because of Rattatti "Scientific Proof" with the lightsaber.

If you let a scout nova knife you from 100% HP to 0, you ****** up.
There's literally no reason this should ever happen unless you get stuck.
Dual tanking is for bad players.
