I A/V with an assault suit, Proto SL, Proto SMG and a hive. This gives me flexibility to A/V camp or get in the mix of things. It's pretty boring sitting the whole game camped out in your good A/V spots. So, I like to jump in and help the team cap with my SMG and hive. Once all skills are maxed, the SMG is a killer. Plus, if a dropship or tank rolls in, I can A/V it out of there. It's a hybrid roll I like a lot. Plus, it gives me the ability to also back up a forger with a hive, SMG and added A/V support. I try to find a forger and work together. It's a good build, check it out.

My fit exactly, only thing I fall foul of is the 'creodron', you gotta be careful getting caught in the open at range to an assault rifle, other than that you can run with infantry sneeking round and flanking closer to the enemy, or support a forge gunner to take down a difficult HAV (this is provided someone brings in a decent forge) all other vehicles can be dealt with easily, though there is the odd dropship with a good fitting and a better pilot that can be very troublesome. Using the proto suit you can get a heafty armor tank with a rep on there aswell so you become pretty substantial infantry gunner with serious AV damage. Think I switched one of the light damage mods for a sidearm one as 2 is plenty for most vehicles and the third doesn't make enough difference to take down the tricky ones, plus it makes you that bit more useful anti infantry.
As for not shooting a HAV that's repping ... you couldn't be more wrong, that's the BEST time to start shooting it, why ? because he's just started the cooldown, that means you've got 30 seconds to take it down during which all he can do is try to run away. When he's running his rep it means someone else has already taken a big chunk of his ehp so you've got less work to do.If you started on a fresh tank, he'd just activate his rep and you'd have to deal all that much more damage to kill it.
Also tank drivers know they can avoid most swarms under the buildings at c even if you're stood next to it, they just hit the ceiling, but if you had a swarm and a forge, he couldn't hide from that, and with a decent LAV setup that could take a few tank hits, and a third man on the turret, you could own an entire battlefield full of top Sagaris'. |
