Like an 8000 Armor Madruger with a hardener on... How hard will they hit against him/her? I'm thinking about putting a few points into the next tier of grenadier, but I really need to get serious about saving up for my logi LAVs. |

Shoot I was hoping you'd say like 4 or something. I want an AV variant for my mass driver that just shoots AV grenades... |

Yeah my original post didn't have the word shield in it. Madrugers are armor tanks. And I said 8000 Armor... Please say it will only take 4 packed AV grenades now!?! |

Alan-Ibn-Xuan Al-Alasabe wrote:My sica has about 4000 shields. An AV grenade (which does 60% damage to shields, I believe) will usually hit me for about 1/8 to 1/6 of my shields. So we can say they're hitting for about 500-700 damage. I'm guessing, then, that they hit for 800 to 1200 damage, somewhere in that range. Assuming the damage ratios of swarm launchers hold true for AV grenades (true as far as I know) you're going to hit armor for 130% damage the upper range of your damage against a Madruger is going to be about 1500. Assuming you can get that full damage with every hit that's six AV grenades.
There's a lot of "if" here, but I think it's more-or-less right.
Good info. That sounds like it is without the hardeners on, but still means its doable. |

If he drives away, then mission complete. if he is GTFO'ing my base, then I win. |

I'm wondering if that is what the new scout suit that has more 'capacity' will be. It would make sense if scouts become the ideal AV group. |

Also, why don't I see many people talking about using lasers on shield tanks? That seems logical? Is it not done? |

Iron Wolf Saber wrote:Well its something CCP suggested to IRC breakfast crew.
Most of the IRC liked the idea however we noted it should cost something important like a side arm slot, or equipment slots. We also noted the need for more grenade types to make it widely a successful feature.
So you use IRC? Do you know if I can get on to the CCP room with my iphone? I've been trying and nobody in the forums wants to help. I promise I wont spam, I just want to lurk and get info... |
