I'm not sure where you are going with this... Small turrets are terrible too, so you should almost never see a good tank driver do that. |

It's not set in stone, but just speculation. Most of the armor tanks are annoyed that shield tanks have an advantage against them, so they are pretty much all on forums and want CCP to nerf shield tanks. No one knows what CCP has planned, so we'll just have to wait and see! If CCP continues on their awesome way of doing tweaks, shield tanks might be fine. However, when CCP has done nerfs to things, they have just made them useless.
If CCP kills shield tanks, then the shield tankers can go armor, or QQ on forums like the armor tankers did until armor tanks are nerfed too. If that happens, it'll just weaken tanks more than they already are. Shield tankers could also get buffed to take over armor's old role, but that'll just get everyone who does not drive a tank QQing on forums.
The best option if shield tanks get killed is just to go armor. That's what most of the good shield tankers are preparing for. If you want to start tanking, you should focus on skills that can be used for both shield tanks and armor tanks. Large hybrid turrets and the like are always good options. Large hybrid proficiency is expensive, so that alone should take you some time.
That is true about armor tankers being a better "all around" tank. Swarms are not as good against armor tanks as you might think they are. Armor tanks have a small amount of shield that recharges, but the real advantage to them is when they run two armor hardeners. You can cycle them and have 2x up most of the time. Forge guns are hybrid damage, so they do equal damage to armor tanks and shield tanks. But don't QQ about this on forums or all tanks will just get nerfed again >.<

ok ^.^ lol The thing about the other side (under the MCC) it's just the same strat as killing a tank normally, and I drive a tank... :P
I'll work on that in a little bit, but there might be another thread on this so I'll search first. |

Why? It's not hard to kill tanks there at all. Most of the time the only thing they can do is railgun snipe anyways.
Sorry, I said I'd post something and then forgot, I'll do it tomorrow xD lol. |
