I travel with a squad of four tank hunters and we have a hard time killing anything above gunlogi.
Honestly the game is no fun to play when there is two or more tanks on the field.
Tanks are hard to kill. Yet I've been in several games where both my team and the opposing team have lost them. Most annoyingly often before I get killed, and manages to respawn with my own AV setup to participate. Obviously militia tanks die fastest. they are not worth a lot in their default loadout. Tier ones take a little longer to kill, but are often manageable with two AV guys. When we get the webber and other AV modules, they should become even easier to kill, which is actually a problem.
The real tough nuts are the Marauders. Especially the Sagaris is a headache and a half. But the exaltation when you kill one is worth everything. A squad of AV guys can kill a Sagaris, though it may take a little while, it is deflatable. Add a dropship, and you are near certain of killing a lone Sagaris, as none of it's own weapons have tracking ability against that DS. |

Sorry, I disagree. It was easy before, now it is a challenge, nothing more. The new problem we are now facing is that we have to break their spider tanking.
Sometimes it's in an LAV running behind the tank. If you see a white line between the two, kill the LAV first.
Really, always kill the LAV's first :P

In battles where I keep shooting at a tank that just won't die, my frustrations are not that I can't kill it. It is that I'm the only one shooting at it! |

I doubt most super tnaks would survive... Or they'd at least be hiding the whole match. 4 AV people gets 3 people and tank to hide or die. Not bad.
BTW, WP needs to be issues more frequently for 'trying' to kill a tank. Right now it seems that you only get WP for hurting armor.
Unless I'm mistaken, I've gotten +25 for damaging shields on a Caldari tank (Gunnlogi) |
