Your problem: You were trying to take down a likely highly outfitted top tier HAV by yourself. You should lose this fight every time, and in all honesty if you're getting this close by yourself, you should be weakened. |

I'm not dismissing what you're saying. I read the whole thing and know you were using the proto launcher and were spec'ed as anti-vehicle.
The issue is they were likely spec'ed to survive damage, too, and those aren't supposed to go down to a single person. You say you have roughly 3m SP invested in your fit, I have 5.3m in my HAV and more I plan on putting in. Your suit costs how much, 80k, 120k maybe? My HAV has 200k worth of weapons and "survival" type modules on it without even factoring in the cost of the vehicle itself. Money isn't necessarily the best comparison of what will do better, but these things are built to last.
Your problem is you can't kill one by yourself, and you want to be able to. No. That should not be allowed. |

This wasn't case of someone using a weapon easily; he planned his tactic and acted accordingly. He did almost everything right to get an advantage over a stronger enemy.
I can't give an answer as to who necessarily needs to be weakened, if anyone, given his example. The reason is we don't know how the HAV was outfitted. If it had junky modules on it (unlikely, but let's go with it), then yeah, he should probably destroy it. If it was a super spec'd HAV with basically all proto gear and one of the best drivers in the game, the swarm setup he has is too strong. It is my opinion that a properly outfitted HAV should not go down to a single person with an equal level of outfitting (ie max spec vs max spec). If it's coming that close, and the HAV was max modded with a fantastic driver, the swarm needs to be toned down, not the HAV. Nobody should be able to solo the top of the class HAVs, even with a brief amount of surprise. |
