So i have the top level railgun, yet somehow its taking me 4+ shots to take down a tank at 5k shields. While it will take them 3 to kill my armor tank at 7k armor and 1200 shield. Explain. Keeps happening so i know its not coincidence. I land every shot, is armor really that ****** up?
Should i be switching to some weird looking shield tank since it has that resistance crutch and speed? |

I want to not have to take one hit and hide like a *****, nor do i want to have to rely on someone to save my ass. Nor do i want to rely on the crutch that a shield tank provides.
Speed, fast recharge, higher possible resistance, and for some weird ass reason their modules recharge at the same rate as armor tanks. Supposedly armor tanks have a higher possible health,yet to see it without making horrendous sacrifices that shield tanks certainly dont put up with.

??? I was talking about in general with the retreating ****.
If its tank on tank i understand falling back to reposition, im just at a loss as to how they out damage or sustain more hits from my top level rail gun and destroy me in 3 hits, while the shield tank has lower health but will take me 4 shots, it confuses meh. |

Did they activate their shield regen while you engaged them? Between the passive resist, active resist which many shield tanks use shield regen your shots can often get negated by the action of these things, also given the relative weakness of rails on shields and strength on armor it may be the reason why.
Frankly rail turrets are whack i use blasters and they work smashingly. Albeit quite risky, often overheat and you really need the full force of all your turrets to take std level tanks out.
Oh that brings me to my next point, in those tanks battles you reference were the tanks shooting at you with just one turret or all 3. additionally it could be due to the skill of the turret operators themselves if mutltiple player in a vehicle have skills in turrets then they each have an effect on the turret they are operating vs players who have no skills in turrest will simply do the base damage. |

dmg mods
before the wipe i would 1 shot all dropships and 2 shot pretty much any tank...3 at most depending on how many loldmgmods i stacked since they are broken |

dmg mods + resistances

and while armor still isnt on par with shields i still take a **** on almost all shield tanks |
