Hi my first post lol.
I've been playing for a 2 weeks and a half and I've noticed that tanks are really annoying when they are good. The Sagris on enemy team keep killing my team. So I've looked at swarm launchers and forge guns.
A prototype swarm launcher shoots 6 missles with 300 damage each if I remember. So 1800. And a prototype forge gun has 1400 damage. Both with 1 bullet. So would swarm launchers be the way to go? Cuz I asked in local and they said forge guns are the tank busters.
Any help will be appreciated thanks.
Sorry for bad English. |

Forge guns - deadly in the right hands, with the right damage mods and skills can make a mess of most Vehicles, but you have to get the shot, if you miss you miss.
Swarms - Lock on and fire, clear LOS not always necessary and the ability to fire then move out of harms way quickly is a boon. The Missiles will track moving targets, however, you cannot guarantee a hit with each missile as they can impact with terrain and buildings while in flight. They have also been known to just fly off in the wrong direction (bug). |

In general Forge guns are superior anti AV weaponary compared to swarms. As long as you got money and skills go forge. |

I have forge gun op and proficiency, but to be honest all you need is the first tier breach forge - dont waste the SP... and make sure you get in a position to get two shots off if needed.
just get lvl 1 in forge and get the breach - and thats it.
swarms are ok but are better against armour than shield. And in this build shield tanks are better than armour.
Also swarms are pretty useless against dropships this build
Swarms at the moment are better when used in a team effort with a forge. Am about to spec into them again but they arent as well balanced as they were in the E3 build.

you lose a significant amount of damage against shields with the swarm (they hit for about 50% iirc), while the forge loses about 10% of it's damage against shields. |
