Blaster/rail/missile

Nitro
Scanner/heatsink

Hardener, 60plate, double rep.

I away a either die to pro tank or av that I never see!!!

Give me tips. I keep loosing isk. =ƒÿ¡=ƒÿ¡=ƒÿ¡=ƒÿ¡=ƒÿ¡=ƒÿ¡=ƒÿ¡

Ever since they were changed and we got more, they feel different and I don't seem to adjust to them.

GIVE ME TANK ADVISE=ƒÿ¬

And why the **** are they so *** **** expensive?

First of all, you don"t need an adv tank to do well. Get the fitting skills up to lvl 3 first. No need to spend more points for the little you get at lvl 4 fitting skills. If you take anything to lvl 5 fitting then make it the turret. Better fitting is the only thing you get over a standard tank with an adv tank, but strength of mods is based on active time of mods or slots on the tank. You don't get more slots over a standard.

Forget plates. Use the best rep and then best hardeners. Then fit pg mod to fit best or with mounting skills fit best second repper. Mount two hardeners and maneuver.

Forget damage mod. Fit for defense over offense. Engage tanks and be ready to disengageor avoid if they are fit more powerfully. Then, go get an anti-tank fit tank if you do need more firepower. Just use standard turret and support infantry with scans and or mCRU while laying down suppressive fire. Otherwise, specifically fit for anti-tank with a proto turret and watch your movements. Look at the map before moving out.

Usually, you can take out tanks from longer range when they don't have hardeners on. When you roll up to them they will pop hardeners or roll past you and flee if hardeners are going down.

Do not directly engage if their hardeners go up. Plot your path so you can roll over them and past them and get cover as you roll around for a recharge.

Rails are just plain OP. The only way you can fight them is to get up close and roll over, around and back and forth to dodge the turret. Shield tanks suck at this, but armor tanks can rep through the shots.

Never try engaging enemy rail tanks head on from a distance unless you can roll behind cover between shots. Keep moving around an enemy missle tank and a blaster tank is simply about outgunning and having enough time on hardeners or hit them from afar.

I have been more successful with anti-tank using a basic missile or rail while focusing on infantry assists at the objective and rolling off to recharge then coming back around than trying to specifically roll and roll around trying to chase a tank.

Always use the maddie or gunni for small turret assists. Better than nothing.

DON'T SIT THERE AND SHOOT HEAD ON UNLESS YOU ARE LONG RANGE WITH A MISSILE OR RAIL AND THE ENEMY IS NOT USING A RAIL OR IS NOT ALREADY ENGAGING YOU!

Try using double plates, hardener, rep btw, stronger fit than the double rep, plate, hardener setup. Tanks - Balancing Turrets

If you run out of hardners or nos in the wrong moment you ll be dead. "Have fun and don't be an aGÇóGÇó hole" zaria min deir. \o/

Never ever assume that. Especially in your care with a 60mm plate that barely adds any armour worthy of note. You basically need a 120mm or dual hardeners and repairers to mitigate incoming damage as much as possible as fast as possible. "Crush all who complain!" `- Arkena Wyrnspire`
