A lot of people went that route because it's something new and people flock to what's new until that newness wears off .
I wouldn't brag about killing tanks because you have a lot of inexperienced drivers out there so it's no big whoop .
Give it 4 to 5 months and then begin to talk . Flank and spank works on anyone who doesnt have a dedicated navigator :P theres really nothing that can be done if i gain position on someone :P let the rain of the Chrome tankers begin again!
That's true the Navigator passenger is a beautiful role that basically ensures any fight against a greater number of tanks is almost certainly your victory.
However I have to admit that even my Proto HAV don't really feel all that Proto..... I'm more a fan of using the Eco-Tanks fits and have and winning fights always comes down to smarts instead of pressing into a direct fight.
Now I don't know about Shield Tankers but either they must all be fitting their HAV wrong or they are simply new and not very confident but I am seeing some weird fits that never hold up well in a fight.
I'll be skilling into them this evening to complete the HAV skill tree to provide some feed back for Rattati.
However point is Flank and Gank doesn't all ways work, especially with cheap tanks like the Sica Kaisar....especially if your opponent is looking to do the same thing.

2 tanks > tank + gunner.
False, i have killed twin tanks before (i don't play with my alt a lot, few encounters). But in current state of things is much more difficult, tanks scan other tanks at 50 meters, you can't even set up a good ambush.
Agreed with shaman on this one.

With blaster tanks your main ally is you being, agile and keeping the pressure on them.
When engaging a tank you will overheat before you can finish him, the sink eliminates that problem.
Wrong. Dmg mod > heat sink on blaster Without heat sink you can shoot 31 bullets for 5 seconds. Blaster dps with dmg mod : 178 * 1.2 = 213.6 213.6 * 31 = 6621.6 6621.6 / 5 = 1324.32 dps Now with heat sink. You can shoot 52 bullets for 8.3 seconds. 178 * 52 = 9256 9256 / 8.3 = 1115.18 Not only dmg mod is easier to fit but you'll also have higher dps and more dmg within one clip. Even more. Blaster has only 75 ammo in one clip so using a heat sink is even more pointless.
DPS isn't the issue being able to fire longer, apply more damage total, and better control your shots and heat is a significant advantage over an additional 210 DPS.
Regardless......while having one is good having both is simply better, drop those scans and go to town of those poor suckers.

This could be said about anyone in-game , if your infantry or in a vehicle . Basics ... what i meant is that i usually have a gunner in my tank sitting in the map marking targets and watching for threats/killing AV any tanker who does not have such a helper is going to get instaganked. im just rolling around teaching the next generation of tankers the ways of Chromosome. I for one am looking for folks to tank with. I'd like to tank with you. I decided last week it's time to team up for tanking.
Were rolling 3 tanks in a squad right now.
