DDx77 The Exemplars RISE of LEGION 88	Posted - 2015.01.21 16:31:00 - [1] - Quote I can't put my finger on why though They just seem so stupid and lazy I know it wouldn't happen but would there be a revolt if it was removed from the game in its current form? could we change it to a slightly faster shooting rail with less dmg but with added splash dmg? What if they also added the ability to equip more smaller turrets and also increased the smaller turrets killing efficiency? I know currently the small blasters are terrible, what if they changed them with a mounted hmg? Sorry for the qq I know it used to be way worse and it has been nerfed, I've just noticed my rage towards tanks seems to be from this one weapon
DUST Fiend Molon Labe. General Tso's Alliance 15605	Posted - 2015.01.21 16:41:00 - [2] - Quote Small blasters are actually pretty good on HAVs, vs infantry anyways My YouTube (currently inactive) Homeless Dropship Enthusiast "See You Space Cowboy"
Hector Carson G0DS AM0NG MEN General Tso's Alliance 153	Posted - 2015.01.21 16:52:00 - [3] - Quote Small Blasters do need a slight tweak, but there only meant for infantry not really meant for Vehicle Vs. Vehicle. The Large Blasters for Tanks are working as intended, but the Installation Blaster needs a nerf for they still don't have enough dispersion, the Primary use of the Blaster is normally for infantry only and I do agree splash damage could be added but then again thinking about it it would become slightly OP Assault c.k0 Proto Tankers
MINA Longstrike Kirjuun Heiian 1947	Posted - 2015.01.21 16:54:00 - [4] - Quote It has the potential to semi-reliably kill you, thus the rage. Infantry really don't like tanks that pose a threat to them (even with small turrets). Vehicles should not ever be able to escape from them and instead should be there to provide damage + kill warpoints. Hnolai ki tuul, ti sei oni a tiu. Kirjuun Heiian. I have a few alts.

Sorry for the qq I know it used to be way worse and it has been nerfed, I've just noticed my rage towards tanks seems to be from this one weapon If you brick tank a maddy with a standard large blaster adv fuel injector and 7770 armor you can do pretty good. With armor comp skills at lvl 5 you will have a 10% speed penalty, you can go head to head with a gunnlogi with a damage mod active. You have to activate your hardener attack and moderate from tapping and holding the trigger. You want to maintain consistant damage then run for the redline or supply depot. Small blasters aren't as good as they should be, they should have the power of a hmg. I've seen hmgs blow up lavs solo small blaster just dont have that fear factor.
Operative 1174 Uuali Y.A.M.A.H 378	Posted - 2015.01.21 17:30:00 - [8] - Quote They do what they are supposed to do, give a solo player like me a way to breach enemy camping or traffic at the expense of hacking the objective and provide teamwork while not being on a squad or comms. Beer. I'm better than laser focused; I'm hybrid focused.
Lazer Fo Cused Shining Flame Amarr Empire 572	Posted - 2015.01.21 17:44:00 - [9] - Quote 1. Why? If i was on the ground when a blaster HAV rolls in i would be laughing as i bunnyhop around it with a sentinal and farm WP off it while it struggles to kill me
Big Burns Dem Durrty Boyz General Tso's Alliance 332	Posted - 2015.01.21 19:18:00 - [10] - Quote They nerfed tanks more than any other item in this game. I was a tanker from Chromosome up until 1.10. I skilled out of them because the railgun turret always lags in PC and shots don't register. They DESTROYED the blaster turret. You can't hit anything with it now. Blaster Installations have a better shot then these. You'd figure they would at least give us a skill that we could invest in, to increase the accuracy. Let's look at the Surya from back in Chromosome. It was a proto tank. It had 5 low slot modules, and 3 high slot modules. I used to run around with like 10,000 armor and 3,000 shields. Armor reps and hardeners included. Compare this to the standard tanks that we have now is just a joke. But we have to invest the same amount of SP, it makes no sense. And from Uprising 1.0 til about 1.8 an average PC tank would cost between 2,000,000isk and 3,500,000 isk. The price of a PC ForgeGun fit, 400,000sik. And back then they could one shot you with the breach. It was nick-named the Cherry Popper. So to answer you question about whether they are going to remove tanks all together, the answer is....they already did. CCP doesn't believe in rewarding players who take risks by investing all of their skill points in one area and being good at that particular area. There aren't any tanks or tank drivers on the field these days, only noobs rolling around in Tonka Trucks. I'm a try-hard, because half my team sits in the MCC.

Sorry for the qq I know it used to be way worse and it has been nerfed, I've just noticed my rage towards tanks seems to be from this one weapon Lol I lean in the opposite direction. All turrets become slow firing, high explosive, have some decent range on them. But yeah I hate them too (though when I do return to Dust occasionally I do spend all my time ruining OMS battles for infantry) which is why I tend to spend more time playing games where conventional tanks and tank turrets exist which I find more engaging. *"He spoke, and we made it so all worlds were one, all peoples were one, all faiths, creeds, and nationalities were one.
