Double hardened Armor tanks with two armor reps are unkillable in a tank v tank fight.

When you see a proto madrugar- what fit is it 90% of the time... 2 hardeners, 2 reps. Why? Because it literally is no risk.

Hell no. Making them active would work much better.
Also, are you combatting them at a distance?
ALSO, last time I checked, you should be able to tank a rail longer than a Gal HAV. Do you mean Ion cannon? Because if so, scrub, you let the BLASTER fit get on top of you.

Lol that is the most B.S. answer I have ever herd. My Proto Missile does maybe like 200 damage per missile x 12= 2400 and that is raw damage over their two hardeners without adding in the fact that they are easily repping 250+/ sec. Edit: even with one hardener, they can literally beast you.

So yeah missiles do nothing, because they will pop both hardeners. 2 hardener 2 rep madruger is overpowered. <--- period.

During normal usage the tank won't have both hardeners to use at the same time.
If they do then that just means they have a long period of downtime.
Armor tanks are balanced. Just make shields just as useful.

It may require a more tactical approach, anyone running that fit will turn the hardeners on as soon as they take any damage, take pot shots to keep them running to the redline, get them frustrated so they don't run back and crush them when they're down

What you don't realize is that a tank isn't a one sided fight. You shoot them, they shoot you, you have to turn on your hardeners. If you are a shield tank, your hardeners don't last long at all compared to Armor Hardeners. Anyway, they rep right through all form of AV. It's lie 45 seconds of immunity, 90 in you spread out the Armor Hardeners. Anyway, once in the redline, they don't come out till the hardeners are ready.

Because
1. Armor tanks are not restricted to Blasters
2. because they can be.

Armor tanks versus infantry right now is fully justified. Against shield tanks, its... well, yea. A rail tank is obviously still going to wreck a blaster tank on a long straightaway, regardless of which kind of HP buffer they have.
Missiles should, ultimately, be a viable means of conquering armor tanks. I don't feel large rails are UP, I feel they are doing what they are supposed to do... as a support weapon from range that can win 1v1's when the environment allows them to.
I think the shock factor here that leads to the idea of rails being UP is that its never actually been a support weapon instead of a 1v1 win-everything weapon before. You can blame CCP for screwing up the balance on that thing since the dawn of time. Only recently has it really been put where it should have been from the start.
I think in the current meta if you try to 1v1 with a shield rail, you're going to lose and you frankly deserve to lose. If you try to 1v1 with a shield missile tank and can simply find no success, there may be some legitimate cause for complaining.

I have suggested a increase in the activation delay for hardeners modules, it is currently 0.7 to 1 seconds.
I suggest increasing it to 3- 5 seconds. That would allow tanks to ambush each other when hardeners are down.
If they only let there hardeners run out while they are in the redline (retreating before hardeners run out) then that is a valid tactic that is designed by the DEVS (waves of opportunity, its just that the retreat position is chosen by the player to be further away in the redline instead of just 200m away)

Now I understand the redline idea... However I don't mind blowing up my tanks due to redline as long as I get the kill on that enemy tank... As that's supposedly our job in the war zone

Just nerf the armor hardeners... They seriously need one.
Same resistance as shield hardener but longer duration, shorter cool down, Continuously repairing and easier to fit.
Why must they be 40/40? i have no idea.
30a/40s or 35a/40s or 35a/45s... Not this 40/40 without them being the exact same thing. It's simply *UNBALANCED*

Buff the shield to be on par with armor so you have choice and variety not more nerfs because it is too hard.
Armor already got nerfs in rep/base hp/plate hp not too mention every main AV weapon is armor damaging to begin with.

Complaining is the only thing that ever get's anything done smart one. If nobody ever complained scouts would still be OP, If nobody ever complained about vehicles getting murdered by AV, vehicles would still be sh*tty. You're part of that 10% of forum users that don't even play the game. Seriously, do you ever think about what you post?

Shield Boosters should be easier to fit and have a slightly higher HP recovery per minute as compared to armor repairers. Oh and actually work properly, but that's more of a tech issue than a balance issue.

Nerf reps while hardener is active, then everything will be fine.
Large blaster is still the best anti-infantry weapon in the game though... But now it can thrash vehicles as well, Id say that's probably not balanced.
Madruga's not stacking hardener + reps give a nice fight... Gunnlogi can be fit with decent enough hp to beat the crap out of a lot of things, while still being a total turd to AV if you don't play stupid.
Just fix the issues, don't make more.
Buff the Gunnlogi = OP Gunnlogi... Learn to use it's mobility to your advantage, maybe do something about the Large blasters turn speed to stop it being able to track absolutely everything. |

After testing the armour tanks thus build I can say (with a reluctant heart as i hate to think any form of tanking needs nerfing) armour tanks are quite literally op as **** .
This was the fit i was running and it was nigh on destructible
Proto maddy
2 complex armour hardners , 1 complex 120 plate and 1 complex light repair .
1 enhanced scanner , 1 complex nitro and 1 basic cru
ion cannon.
I'm telling you its a hard slog to break this tank it took 2 rails and a forge to pop me in one game yesterday other than that i haven't lost another 1 yet .
The high resist high hp and constant high reps make the maddy almost unkillable .
Today I also ran across a maddy that when down past its armour it literally took no dammage from my swarms whirl it's hardners were active I think some how they were running 3 or 4 of them and tbh I was like wtf

Large blaster is still the best anti-infantry weapon in the game though... But now it can thrash vehicles as well, Id say that's probably not balanced.
Madruga's not stacking hardener + reps give a nice fight... Gunnlogi can be fit with decent enough hp to beat the crap out of a lot of things, while still being a total turd to AV if you don't play stupid.
Just fix the issues, don't make more.
Buff the Gunnlogi = OP Gunnlogi... Learn to use it's mobility to your advantage, maybe do something about the Large blasters turn speed to stop it being able to track absolutely everything.
lolno
The only moving thing a blaster can easily kill is a heavy suit, or a vehicle (not DS's mind you)
Also, if you're combating it in CQ, you're ******* fault.

Add back in PDS/rechargers
Move and lower fitting req on regulators
Lower fitting req on boosters and hardeners
Constant passive shield regen, active armor reps remove passive armor reps
Complete overhaul on the vehicle tree and bonuses
Buff rail/missiles either with OH mechanics/adding splash/increase ROF for missile etc
Buff all vehicles fitting

This is a legit statement. I like the second one, we can see how that one goes, and if more is needed to be changed, go down another 5 %? I don't think the third option would work, because it's already hard as hell to wear down a double or tripple hardened Gunnlogi.

That tank fit stated in OP can take two clips of IAF without dying. Then I died but it seemed he wasn't going down anytime soon. Swarms are non existent. Armor tank in OP can survive swarms from 3 guys until his hardeners go down.

As reference.
2 Complex Reps + Max Skills + Natural Regen = 305 HP/s
1 Hardener = 40% Resistance
2 hardeners = ~61% Resistance
So....
2 Reps + 1 Hardener = 508 DPS Mitigated
2 Reps + 2 Hardeners = 785 DPS Mitigated
So while it's completely reasonable for an HAV to be able to mitigate these levels of HP....what is not reasonable is that that they're able to do it 100% of time without any or very little downtime. I believe back in the day it took 3 armor repairers to remain constant reps, which left you fairly hinderd both in remaining slots as well as resources.

Not really, since we have much more fitting space and armor hardeners cost is very low- you can easily fill your high slots with damage mods, heat sinks, scanners, nitros and even small shield boosters.

How so? If we have cap it would make active tanks only last so lnog in a fight so you can't sustain it. So running active Tank with hardeners would Drain you cap so you would only last maybe 20 seconds worth of cap. But Buffer fit would give you more cap but less repair in a fight. Its a balancing factor.
You could equip a Cap recharger but it would lower the amount of tank you can have for more sustained fighting. Or a Cap battery for Hit and run stuff.
Modules would just need a 3 state system.
Off : wont use cap or do its thing
On: checks to see if it needs to repair stuff
Active: if it dose need to repair stuff activates using cap.
You could just do a Active, off state as well if you want more of a challenge for players.

Well for starters, armor reps used to be active, so this sort of thing wouldn't happen. The gunnlogi can do it too though of you use triple hardeners.
Oh and before anyone forgets, Rattati wants marauders to have even higher hp than these "normal" tanks.
I'm not going to say he ****** up somewhere, but adjustment need to be made because I did a domi and say at the point almost the whole match, despite another tank shooting at me. I just ignored him while I killed his team.
However I'll also say that a counter does exist and the experienced tankers are finding it. Damage mods need to be looked at for each turret. They can get through dual hardeners but only on a blaster. Missiles take too long to reload to kill a tank solo, and rail guns shouldn't be used at all since they overheat too quickly. Proxi explosives are a godsend as well. They are the perfect ambush and can kill tanks that aren't hardened or give a huge advantage during a fight by leading the tank into the trap.
Gunners are crucial in tank vs tank battles.
I can do most of this stuff solo, including killing dual hardened tanks. You just need to think more and people don't want to. I lost a lot of tanks the week echo dropped but now things have settled it's not as bad.

tanks = tanks is somewhat misleading, since the reality is:
madruger > other tanks
and then a final equation which states that madrugers cant kill each other. because even large tank turrets cant take out a madruger. |

During normal usage the tank won't have both hardeners to use at the same time. If they do then that just means they have a long period of downtime. Armor tanks are balanced. Just make shields just as useful. So which category do you fall into? Idiot or ass?
Neither. You're just not experienced enough. The counter to a dual hardener, dual rep maddy has been given already in this thread. If you can not kill a tank with that counter then there is no room for you in this discussion. Go try it. If you die, try it again. If you still can't do it, then the problem lies with you.

Buff the shield to be on par with armor so you have choice and variety not more nerfs because it is too hard.
Armor already got nerfs in rep/base hp/plate hp not too mention every main AV weapon is armor damaging to begin with.

Need to reverse the current shield nerfs Add back in PDS/rechargers Move and lower fitting req on regulators Lower fitting req on boosters and hardeners Constant passive shield regen, active armor reps remove passive armor reps Complete overhaul on the vehicle tree and bonuses Buff rail/missiles either with OH mechanics/adding splash/increase ROF for missile etc Buff all vehicles fitting Disclaimer: The above post is respectful, contains no ranting, contains no personal attacks, contains no trolling, contains no racism, contains no discrimination, contains no profanity, contains no spamming.

Both.

The problem with the given counter is that you have to use a blaster to counter a blaster madrugar.
If the other primary turret options cannot do the job they need another look.
Ideally my preference for solving this imbalance actually requires the restoration of the shield fitting nerfs to previous. Then making shield boosters not suck more than almost anything in existence.
The railgun needs a heat check. Period. There is a minimum threshold required to kill a madrugar assuming a perfect storm of events. If a gunnlogi cannot begin firing at long range and kill a madrugar before it charges straight into it's optimal and kills the gunnlogi first it means rails and missiles require tweaks to adjust.
If the madrugar begins the engagement inside it's optimal then probably killing the gunnlogi is working as intended.
Missiles need something that isn't the old blaster-optimal-shotgun.

This bafoon doesn't realize that a blaster turret cannot kill them.
