Yup they're just big fat piggy banks just waiting to be smashed open, all you need is a really big hammer.
Also a thanks to the other AV guys that hounded these guys to death I think I can only claim to soloed one of the Sagaris, the Surya took all of us to kill and he made one wrong turn. |

Proto Foge if you like getting down and dirty and personal also its a better anti-dropship option than the swarm launcher as it nearly impossible to dodge if you shoot right.
Protoswarm is great for bombarding from afar such as on top of those annoying towers people like to camp out on top of Also swarm launcher fits typically are non heavy so they can get nanohives.
Nextly nearly ALL Muraders are soloable its just a matter of good timing and good cover and the target's bad decisions, such as "I'm in a Sagaris my armor repair unit will overcome the next shots damage." Then quickly finding out that there is no way an armor repper can recover 90% of armor hp lost in 2.25 seconds.
Also AV grenades use em they're great for throwing off the tank pilot too if you damage it in the right direction and do serious amounts of damage.
Finally do use your appropriate sized weapon upgrades and try to get the damage SP for either weapon system up high as possible, fewer times you have to pull the trigger the less likely you are to die.
Sagaris I consider weaker of the two tanks, strip is shields off and it only takes one proto froge gun shot to kill them or make them seriously reconsider armor tanking a sagaris in the future. |

When you see a swarm launcher from distance you can clearyly see the rockets coming for you. But a forgegun is allmost impossible to predict thats why its more dangerous. Well the downside to that is you are forced to use a heavy dropsuit. Well the advantage to this you are very hard to kill with misiles. Most of the time the heavy shot me a 2nd time with the forgegun before he dies.
Yeah on my good days I can swat drop ships in two hits. Its just landing those two hits that isnt my good day thing. |

I dont know who the poor smuk yesterday I hit directly in mid air while bunny hopping yesterday but I feel sorry for you, I honestly meant to hit where you about the land but forge gun inaccuracy caused it to shot a bit too high and to the right,
These modified mining laser pulses are a bit tricky to precisly work with but when you're blasting rocks apart who cares? |

Well they all went different directions and didnt stick together was the main problem they had. So I caught each one alone and blew it up to peices. One crew member got a kill on me after I blew the tank and they bailed and my scrambler pistol emptied into thin air... Second death was to the Sagaris that ran over the AV greande I dropped and blew up the last second. |

Dunno... I still feel that the breach ARs are a bit too strong over thier other variants and that using other variants just seems nonsensical the only other variant that comes close is vanilla assault but its only really good on stationary targets.
BTW Stationary Targets never react too well to ANY weapon. The whole reasony why I bagged a few snipers with a forge gun or won a sniping match with a scrambler pistol. |

Once you have smart dropship pilots working with smart infantry on the ground, HAV duty can become hellish, as it should be.
They're called bullet magnets for a reason. |
