Shield tanks are only slightly better compaired to armor because they're more versatile (especially fitting small turrets) and maneuverable. Shields suck defensively compaired to armor.

Indeed...... that 15% better hardener really makes them bad in a defensive sense....not to mention on tanks a passice 168 passive regeneration per second without requiring a module to be fit.

Hardeners come down eventually, sure they can burst tank but after that they're tissuepaper. Edit: also you need to use on everytime you're attacked because your defenses depend on them, meaning even a single swarmer can cause you to use up your hardener(s) in some cases. Not to mention you're toast if youre caught with them down, even if you keep some shields you've lost most of it.

Shield reps only work after a battle where as armor is constant, not to mention higher (typically 200-250). Sure it takes mods but you also require 3x defensive mods for max efficiency, plus using your lows for fitting mods where as armor gets at least one utility high (typically an overdrive which can help outrun/strafe missiles).

Sir Snugglz Red Star. 1140	Posted - 2015.01.21 17:15:00 - [3] - Quote DUST Fiend wrote: Yes or No, and why Vehicles in general? No. The lav (like none ADS derpships) have no role aside for one way suicide trips. Aside from the fatty proto rail gun fit, lav's have no clear role aside transportation. Have no anti infantry/ anti vehicle capabilities. Cant even be used for supression nor defense. That's what I call major underpowered. Even running people over got nerfed (i do agree that was op) but no buff to compensate in other area. If lav was meant for only transportation, then we should remove the turret for another seat. I have never heard any PC team request an lav driver for their match... That says a lot. Same thing applies to general derpships. lav's/derpships have no bonuses whatsoever. initial transportation is only real purpose, aside from suicide runs to a point. Again, I've never seen a PC team ask for a general purpose derpship pilot, (only ADS). ADS main role now is to clear roof uplinks. It's slaying capabilities were taken away. If you see the ADS as an uplink cleaner then its fine. If you think it shouldn't just be an uplink cleaner, then its under powered. I was only a tanker in chromosome (not many people knew that). I cannot state how tanks are. But LAV and general purpose derpships are definitely underpowered. LAV's especially. -Pro AFKing LVL 5 -Luck is just one of my skills -Just because I make flying look easy doesn't mean it is

Derpty Derp Dead Man's Game 644	Posted - 2015.01.21 18:56:00 - [5] - Quote No: Turrets are not well balanced... Large turrets still too good at farming infantry - Missiles can spray a whole area, clearing out areas of infantry, as well as popping a few individual missiles for single targets. - Rails can snipe like a boss still. - Blasters are about where they should be. No balance between turret types Large Turrets: - Rails charge too fast for something with that much range. - Missiles can spray enough to down most vehicles in 1 go, leading to boring fights. - Tanks turn speed makes the fastest turning turrets pointless, blasters main advantage for close range is the turrets turn speed, which means nothing when the other tank can just pirouette on the spot with a stronger turret! I suggest... We need to reduce the amount of missiles per reload. increase charge time on rails and make large turrets unable to turn while the tank is turning/moving. Small Turrets; - Small turrets are too forgiving when wasting shots. - Missiles can miss a target 7 times and still get the kill on the 8th, it makes killing infantry too easy. - Blasters have such little heat buildup and so much ammo, that you can spray down several infantry without having to stop, even if you miss half your shots. - Missiles have such a long reload time that vehicle reps make them somewhat useless against anything that repairs fast. - Rails could use a little more damage to break through reps, maybe less range because it's way too safe sniping from a distant LAV. I suggest... We half the number of missiles per reload and reload time. Give more heat buildup on blasters. Wait before changing rails again to see how they fair with other turret changes. Hulls are not well balanced. Gunni has much better turn speed - Ability to maneuver makes it the 'go to' tank, even before considering the favorable damage profile of shields. I suggest... Allowing both hulls to turn at a similar rate, have the changes to straight line speed/acceleration only. Though I would make the changes to turrets turning, before bothering with this, as it may become unnecessary. Maddi drops instantly to missiles - Gunni has a fair chance vs all weapons, while Maddi drops instantly to Missiles. I suggest... Either giving the Maddi a much higher potential hp, or evening out the damage profiles a bit. People can jump in/out of vehicles. - Jumping out and instantly firing av weapons makes vehicle fights boring. - It allows someone to escape death at the last second. - It makes multi-turret vehicles less useful, if you can avoid fitting and jump out with a HMG instead. I suggest... Adding a delay to getting out would screw up transport dropships badly! So instead I think a 3 or 4 second delay to movement input after exiting/entering would be more viable. Deciding where to drop passengers would require a little more thought. No more dumping into a hot zone and having them shoot some poor bugger in the back. Turrets can be used to cover the transported infantry after they exit. Tankers really shouldn't be getting out all that often, especially in the open. Makes multi-manned vehicles better than solo vehicles.
P14GU3 Savage Bullet 1146	Posted - 2015.01.21 19:09:00 - [6] - Quote Pretty much what derp said. From an AV perspective, maddys are WAY too easy to kill, with swarms or forge guns. Dropships get wrecked by swarms but are hard to down with a forge. I would say they are about where they should be. Gunnlogis are near unbeatable with AV if its a good pilot. The only way to take a good gunny down is with 2 or 3 coordinated AV at the moment. I think better shield AV would solve this (amarr lance plz.) LAVs are fine. My biggest issue with vehicles, and always has been, lack of enter/exit animation. The instant teleport in and out is broken on so many levels.

Vesta Opalus T.H.I.R.D R.O.C.K General Tso's Alliance 320	Posted - 2015.01.21 19:13:00 - [8] - Quote DUST Fiend wrote: Yes or No, and why Yes. Sort of. 1. Against AV, Vehicle players get to decide the terms of every engagement unless they are hit by so much AV that they are instantly or almost instantly killed, this means that the opposing AV has a massive disadvantage at all times which is magnified by the disparity in TTK (even a large blaster turret with the lowest anti-infantry TTK will be able to kill even the most tanked suit in the game before the tank is killed, this is even more pronounced when you get into railgun vs. forge or swarm where the railgun can sit at max range and just peck at the AV player until they manage to land a hit, AV player doesnt get that luxury and CANNOT kill a properly driven rail tank at long ranges) 2. Inter-vehicle balance is **. The Gunloggi HAV is stupendously overpowered compared to any other kind of tank, including the madruger. Any rail tank is just absurdly dangerous to any dropship in the field. Shield dropships take stupid amounts of damage from bumping into anything. LAVs and Dropships take massive falling damage or impact damage from anything whereas a tank is almost invincible to it (they can fall from insane heights and not die, run into just about anything and take only a little damage, yadda yadda). Small turrets have issues that make them nearly unusable in some situations, small rails have bad hit detection, small blasters are just , and missile turrets have some kind of weird thing where they take inertia from the parent vehicle and fly off in some random direction instead of where you are aiming. And last but not least, tank power to kill other tanks is so far above AV that it makes a militia sica with all militia mods a better AV choice to a non vehicle spec player than actual proto AV is. 3. While as mentioned in 1. AV is ** at killing vehicles, they are also good enough against vehicles to force vehicles into incredibly cautious play because vehicles are tremendously expensive and nobody wants to lose them. This results in boring play for both AV and vehicle players as they are in a kind of stalemate. AV ends up dodging infantry all game and doing nothing but having no fun, and vehicles end up sniping from safe spots (be it redline or near handy cover) at enemy redberries, having no fun as well, and not really doing much either. So no, vehicles are OP, but at the same time they are sort of stupidly implemented so its not like the vehicle player is having any fun with it most of the time.

Lazer Fo Cused Shining Flame Amarr Empire 583	Posted - 2015.01.21 19:25:00 - [12] - Quote 1. No 2. LAV/DS/HAV have no role 3. Turrets are either anti vehicle or nothing at all due to infantry ability to whine about getting killed by turrets so they get nerfed 4. No module variety and what modules we have get nerfed because again infantry whine for it 5. Lack of skills and decent skill bonuses so even less to skill into and the gap between a 30mil vehicle SP player and a 0SP player is literally nothing 6. Anything a vehicle can do infantry can do it better for cheaper in SP and ISK 7. Armor vehicles melt to current AV weapons so shield is more powerful as a result 8. SL is the most broken and skillless weapon in any game i have come across - Crash Bandicoots Wumpa launcher requires more aiming and timing that this POS 9. No hull variety 10. MCRU is useless and not upgradeable 11. Prob a few more i forgot to add

On a Shield Tank (since I always think in terms of tanks) you rarely ever have to come down from the active module high. 2x Hardeners create a 60 second resistance period with 30 seconds down time with an incredibly manageable 4 second regen delay for 168 per second (and effective 235.2 while module remains active). Ideally I'm never on field for longer than I can manage my active modules and always in a place to exploit some form of cover. The issue I find is that for the most part I can ignore swarm launcher users unless they appear in force unlike Forgegunners and Plasma Cannoniers as as such can ignore the most common AV form that I'm likely to encounter. I mean from a defensive stand point.....I get everything and more on the Shield HAV than I do on the Armour HAV. 15% better hardeners, effectively a free repairer, natural resistance to most forms of AV and comprable if not better eHP values due to my fitting capacities. I can't speak for Dropshippers.....never been able to fly. *"He spoke, and we made it so all worlds were one, all peoples were one, all faiths, creeds, and nationalities were one.

They aren't OP. Against a shield tank, it will take about 6 swarms to get down to armour if they fit it like that. Armour vehicles have it bad cos 2/3 of all weapons that are used to kill vehicles have an efficiency bonus to armour. Armour vehicles need a buff, leave swarms alone until after vehicle rebalance and see how it plays out.

Over all I blame the small player base and the juicy points that come from vehicle destuction. For instance if I blow up a LAV near a blue objective I get 75 75 40 plus the bonus. Oh and also there is much vehicle hate from when tanks and murdertaxis ran amok killing every thing match after match, that **** left scars man and made people skill into AV and have a fit ready to counter vehicles.
