can add that forge is hybrid damage, and swarms are explosive.
Hybrid damage is equal to shields and armor, but explosive deals less damage to shield than normal and more damage to armor than normal. |

HAV, depends on shield lvl... a true shield tank, forget about it, but it does **** them off pretty quick.
They do almost nothing against armor. So don't use them against armor LAV or HAV
regular grenades do almost nothing to any vehicle. |

I'm not sure if it has been mentioned yet, but Slap26 pointed out that armor tanks have significantly more EHP than shield, so in terms of the % of damage you do to the tank, swarm launchers take a larger chunk out of a shield HAV's shield than they do an armor HAV's armor.
In simpler terms, swarms do more damage to shield HAVs than they do armor HAVs. Yes, the damage to armor is slightly higher, but that cannot make up for the higher EHP.
If you want an example, let's say I have a HAV with 1 ehp, and one with 1,000. The 1,000 ehp vehicle takes 2x the damage that the 1 ehp vehicle does. If I fire a weapon that does 1 point of damage, it will kill the 1hp vehicle. The 1,000 ehp vehicle will take 2 damage, but that doesn't do much.
The point is, swarms do high damage to shield HAVs, so it's not like using them gimps you. You'll kill a shield HAV with swarm launchers faster than you will an armor HAV. |

I'm still standing to my statement, the Swarm is not a shoot and forget weapon
Something tells me the idea of fire and forget means multiple things to people in this thread.
As in, those who speak English, those who can use Google and Wikipedia, and those who have no idea how to use the internetz?
edit: Swarm Launchers are clearly a F&F weapon. |
