In battles with SP totals at the current levels, 99 times out of 100 you are slaughtered before you can reload the first time. You are taking a huge gamble by trying it. You are not only putting yourself at huge risk of death, you are taking away 90% of your ability to help your team.
In corp battles sure, but how many people actually care about the team in instant battles? All the AFK's don't, that's for sure. The winning team makes more money and SP at the end of the match, I honestly don't understand why people WOULDN'T want their team to win. But I guess I'm just old-fashioned.... 
Cause they're A-holes.. or they're like me and are so broke that they can't afford to run anything past starter fits |

Also, the OP has no way of knowing every one of those players was running militia swarms. All he knows is that the last missile that hit him was one from a militia swarm. For all he knows, every other swarm on the field could have been proto swarms.
That's not true. Any decent tank driver knows to count the number of missiles in each swarm. It's very important, because depending on the number of missiles in each swarm and the people shooting at you, you know if you can tank the damage or you need to start running.
4 missiles = Militia/Standard SL.
5 = Advanced
6 = Proto.
And to the OP, sorry but I disagree. Newbies need that starter fit.
God knows that if CCP didn't give it to them, they would not create an AV fit for themselves for a month and a half, at least. |

lol, I just barely invested in standard ones cause I couldn't fit 3 damage mods on my advanced suit with a militia swarm. |

When 7 swarmers are hitting you, you really can count every single missile in the air and every hit you take? While shooting enemies, trying to find a place to hide, and trying to keep your reppers and hardners managed. That's 28 missiles possible in the air at once, not counting the fact that they can fire off more than one volley in the space of 5 seconds. That's 28 IF they were all militia. Ok rainman, if you say so. |

Ok rainman, if you say so. EDIT: Also, those swarms are coming in from all directions, not just one in most instances. Just thought I'd point that out.
You said that there was no way to know if he was being shot by militia swarm launchers or more advanced ones. That is just false, so I provided you with a way. You are welcome. 
I also said that the number of people shooting at you is very important.
With seven people shooting at him, the real question is why did he go back to that same spot. 
Cheers.
