If this remains in the game, when everyone has leveled up forge gun proficiency, tanks are going to be unusable! I think the damage is going to need adjustment.
Marauders also get a base 1.5x turret multiplier, and has the entire chassis worth of health to back it up
EDIT; A well-tanked Sagaris can get close to 15k EHP.
EDIT; EDIT; Also, don't forget that damage types are going to play a role in damage dealt. Forge Gun damage might not be as effective against tanks as another tank... or... something... |

Well I have experienced this weapon first hand... it destroys my tanks in two shots even with a heavy shield booster. And they get me from across the map... cant even see the person firing the gun!
What kind of tank are you driving? Sica / Soma / Gunnlogi / Madruger / Sagaris / Surya?
EDIT; Also, if you wouldn't mind posting your fit, I'd be glad to offer some advice. |

Even if it were a free tank... which it is not... I have a modded sica... it is rediculous that any hand held weapon can two shot it... especially as it cost something like 2 million sp to get just this far with the tank. I have about a million sp just for the turret upgrades... so yeah it is a bit annoying
The Sica is a very squishy tank. Even if you're not using the militia fit, it's considerably weaker than the Gunnlogi / Madrugar, and getting two / three shot in it sounds about right.
My advice would be to skill your racial HAV skill up so you can get into the Gunnlogi / Madrugar, train up armor / shield adaptation, and put on a tank to supplement your tanks current... tank. The Gunnlogi is a shield tanker while the Madrugar is an armor tanker. Combine hardeners with armor plates / shield extenders (depending on your tank), and you should see more survivability.
Armor repper on an armor tank is a must, however the shield tanks can either go full buffer and rely on passive regen for healing, or fit a shield booster and sacrifice buffer.
Off for the night, happy tanking. |
