A 1.2 Million ISK tank is OP vs 140,000 Isk dropsuite mimando ?  ROLF...  Yes. Price and Power are two different things. Besides, it does not take 1.2 million ISK to make a fit with double hardeners and reps.
Price is usually a player determined measure of power. Powerful and meta specific ships cost more to make use of. It would be great if Dust did this as well.

I'm going to be a broken record and say that passive reps need to die in a fire and we need active reps again. No doubt active need to back a come back, but no reason we can't have passive!
As long as they do not provide such a prolific a per second value I guess they could stay for the sake of personal preference..... not that I really agree with them.

Yes, because our opinions don't matter. I've been in tanks for a year and a half, Taka has been in tanks since before Replication.
Likely what you ran into is a double hardened, double repped fit. Unless you can pump out the DPS to down it in like 5 seconds, you aren't going to down it. Meaning with just your main weapon alone, it won't die. Double repped with double hardeners is a bit OP atm and hopefully something that will get fixed.
Yet again, someone saying the answer is to nerf tanks. When are people going to get passed that and actually use teamwork all the time to down a tank? Do you really expect to solo someone that's been in PC in tanks? Best option you have is to set up a proxy mine trap, but that's too hard.
But in the meantime, perhaps a bit of advice. I personally don't use a swarm launcher, but I imagine it would work as well.
It works far too well for its ease of use.
What I have been doing is carrying proxies (remotes work well, just require some manual activation) laying down a trap to provide that initial burst damage.
Oh wow, you actually use your brain sometimes.
Tanks can be limited in movement,
Can be limited? Of course they're limited, they weigh 100 tons.
and flat areas (which a road provides) allow for the maximum movement potential, and a guide for when they have to back out. Watch the tank and note it's movement in and out of an objective, more than likely they will continue to use that same path.
Predictable people, yeah.
Once your trap is down, try to pull them in with hope of an easy kill. Positioning an LAV around a corner provides good bait, or just wait for them to move in. Generally though, I stick close to those proxies. Once that initial burst goes off, AV nades, generally the ones with best range, until you can throw no more and fire your weapon.
Yeah, YOLO homing AV grenades are so hard to use.
Wow I've been in tanks as long if not longer than you Spkr.

Good job you two, you made me care enough to post again. Sadly they will often insist that anyone who doesn't agree with them, doesn't actually use vehicles. I can assure you that while many vehicle pilots can be very Q_Q (Hell that really goes for any group within the game), not all of us are.
But Pokey.....

Q_Q Don't worry True, while you are a crazed Amarrian zealot, you're actually quite reasonable if we can get you to stop raging about a lack of Amarrian tanks.
NEVER! And I prefer the term "Frothing Zealot" thank you very much.
