coming on AV side, of FG's (with minimal tank experience), here is my views.
FG tiers are useful to the respective tiers of their rank counter parts to an extent.
Basic FG's are good against militia tanks (this is speaking all solo as this is whats being called into question); but can't do much against adv/proto tanks.
Adv FG's are lethal to militia, and efffective against adc (to an extent), and worthless against proto
Proto FG's will destroy militia, are good against Adv tanks, and "worthless" against proto
(remember this is all on solo abilities as that is what the OP was talking about; being solo'd by AV)
If look at is SP wise then for the actual tank vs weapons (assume at moment both tank and player have maxed out core affecting skills).
Basic AV= 12-30k
Adv- 150-310k
Proto - 610-650k
Basic Tank= Free
Adv Tank = ~360k (plz correct as idk on SP value for HAV lv 1
Poto Tank = ???, maybe around what 1mil SP?
The other thing to tank into account is the many variations you can run w/ tanks. With AV, you are VERY limited to what you can do.
Then go into the counters:
Tanks only counter is AV
AV counter is EVERYTHING
Other Factors:
Tankers knowledge: do you know your tanks abilities, and how to USE your tank properly? If you call it out int he open, yes you are F*C**D, and should be. That is bad map awareness and decision making.
If running AV, should you run directly toward the tank? NO . Should i watch the map for points that benefit me, and are red dot free? YES
As it is, tanks currently are a bit more balanced then they have been in previous builds (i believe). FG's have the advantage at certain time, but so do tanks; it just comes down to the player and teams to bring those situations to light. Have i solo'd tanks; YES, but it wasn't easy, and those tankers weren't smart about how they were using them.
I know people like slap26 (and other PFB tanker), they have good fit tanks, and wont be solo'd. Alldin's tank too. If people know how to fit tanks, and use them properly, NO av player will EVER solo that tank. Are there problem w/ AV, like SL super turning, yes; does FG slash to do much damage, possibly; but they aren't killing in 1 hit as much (and if you do get killed in 1 hit, give props to that guy, as it aint easy).
Each area has it costs and benefits and proper usage. You just need to know how to use your gear to your advantage |
