we need anti shield AV, this is obvious but for some reason has not even been discussed.
or alternatively make all AV +/- neutral on shields and Armour and apply proficiency to both shields and Armour |

Oh man if I actually cared to spend the time I could find you dozens of threads discussing Anti-Shield AV.

I think Rattati mentioned they wanted to make the Heavy Laser somehow by using current visual assets, which I think is not a bad idea. Frankly if it looked like the laser rifle but reskinned that would be fine by me.
EDIT: Found the link where he mentions it: https://forums.dust514.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=2483325#post2483325 |

Plasma Cannon is anti-shield but it requires people to aim.

It also has half the DPS of swarms despite needing to aim. Swarms will outDPS a placon even against shields.

Flux Mass Driver? Same as a Mass Driver but it shoots canisters that release a small flux over 3-4 meter radius. 400-600 splash damage to shields and infantry equipment only and direct hits deal 200-400 armor damage... good enough?

I want PLC variants
breach, high single target damage, less splash => AV
assault, multiple projectiles per reload, moderate splash but weaker direct hit => AI
the regular would be jack of all trades |

Perhaps it can be neutral when vehicle pilots get their 2% per level shield and armour resistance skills back.

Plasma cannon is great for anti-shield. At prof 5 it's beautiful to use.
Remember shields have recharge delay, so you can prevent shield recharge

Entire threads have been dedicated to laser AV, entire worksheets in vehicle shreadsheets has been made specifically for AV, which includes laser AV weapons.
You simply aren't looking hard enough.

plc isn't about dps. its more an alpha weapon.
when fighting a gunnlogi it gerannrly takes 4+ swarmn volleys to drop its shields even with 3 complex lights. (given its fitted right/pilot knows what their doing).
a PLC can drop said gunnlogis shields in 2-3 shots with 3 complex mods and prof 5. catch the gunnlogi unharderned and you can 1 shot his shields. or 2 shot if he's extended. then follow up with 1-2 av nades for that pesky armour and boom.

I can't deny this can work... But by the time you've fired your first shot, anyone who knows how to make use of a vehicle should be out of range of the grenades before you can throw them.
My personal preference is open with flux nades, then finish with a forge gun... Forge gun works well against shields and armour (No matter what anyone says about damage profiles.) |

This statement doesn't wash when you consider only the breach forge fails to out- dps the PLC. The alpha of the plasma is pretty much identical to the assault forge.

I would love that soooo much x.x
We have the flux so a shield based AV grenade isn't needed in my opinion, but yes, we need a heavy death laser of smite!
