On my APEX 'Spartan' **** Your Tank class I have equipped a Plasma Cannon and Packed Lai Dai's. My strategy is simple, I run up to the tank like I am about to give it a hug but instead of a hug I shoot missiles and grenades at it.
Since FoxFour dropped I have not lost a single engagement with a tank. I know there are weak points on the tank but I am not exactly sure where they are at so it's not like I am consistently targeting those weak points.
Any other infantry out there find it extremely easy to destroy tanks now?

Blame your fellow tankers that complained. They wanted balance because they didn't know how to pilot and this is the result. I think it's the opposite. They're so damn good and infantry so bad that they had vehicles beaten into the ground and nerfed to near-uselessness, because they couldn't solo marauders and the best pilots at the time.
I agree with this.
I want to add that I believe a lot of infantry never bothered to figure out how to or even practiced flanking up on tanks to destroy them. Instead they would just run off to avoid them and then claim they are OP.
I feel bad for tankers now. Maybe I am just having a string of luck with destroying them at the moment; it's why I came to the forums about this.
I want to know if any other infantry who actively goes after tanks is finding it much easier to destroy them. |

i have max tank skills 2 complex reps, complex 120mm, and a hardener, it would take 2 of you
Good! If you have all your tank skills maxed out and are equipping Proto Gear it sure as hell should take atleast two people to take you out.
Heads up though, usually when I see a tank with a hardener running I will simply wait a little bit for the hardener to run out before attacking. |

Yea, I have killed Duna2002 before in his fancy tank. With Duna once you destroy one of his tanks you will never see him the rest of the match. |

Armor Repairer Madrugar/Marduk fits had been nearly indestructible for months. With the adjustments to HAVs they buffed shields and left armor alone such that it is now possible to take out rep-stacking Gallente tanks.
By no means have they been rendered useless by being vulnerable to weapons designed to damage them. That's not really what I take issue with as I agree Repairers never should have gone passive.... it's that HAV don't act like heavily armed and armoured vehicles should. A tank is a "trench buster". Anything not resembling that is a fail. The few times I have used a tank like that it is fulfilling. For instance, being able to roll into CQ (with a missile Gunni no less!) and pulling area denial and force the enemy into paths of approach is one of the few times a tank is doing what it should and achieving a useful role in DUST.
I wish I saw more often in this game what you just described. I'm not a tanker so I'd probably be one of the people getting slaughtered by the tank but at least it would be epic. |
