As an experiment I have had two to three proto AV fits, both a cloak scout plc and/or Minmando swarms, on my main. I am simply terrible with RE's so I don't even run them. I always fit Proto AV grenades, but they are not overly effective.
Against a semi-competent driver that doesn't panic and drive into a wall, there is no way to kill a HAV. They simply harden and rail or blast me, fairly easily.
2 AV scare most HAV's away. Thing is about PLC is that it is very difficult to hit a moving target, the first shot is a hit, 2nd maybe and then you are in dream territory.
Even fitted as I am, the last two week KDR against HAV's is approximately 0-20 on my side.
Against random guys that start shooting me when I am trying to AV, I am probably a 5/30 KDR with my measly scout HP, or screenfilling swarm launcher.
The situation is not even close to what you are describing, for me at least.
You are probably a bad player because there is no one HAV that can be effective when I am around. I may not kill him but hey, i'm happy with getting +75 +75 +75. Not to mention, that when I am around in my ADV minmando swarm fit, most tanks and especially ADS stay away. Now, had there been 2 Minmandos, those tanks and ADS's would literally have certain death.
Get gud?

False, a Gallante Commando with Dual PLC's can bring my unhardened 5300 shields to 1000.
