with a proto assault forgegun and 3 damage mods it will take only 10 secs to take down a shield tank (sagaris with best modules). cause forgegun operation reduces the time of the chargeup with each lvl. And that same guy allmost 2 shoted a fairly decent gunnlogi from one of my mates.
so what you're saying is that someone who has dedicated themselves to killing you with extreme prejudice can kill you with relative ease? You don't say!? |

Swarms vs tanks: absolutely fine
swarms vs lightly armored vehicles= broken to you? it is an anti-ARMOR weapon. it is meant to easily take out things that are lightly armored and with some effort take down more heavily armored foes. |

There's absolutely no balance between them, there isn't a lowee lock on time they don't have trouble tracking them and they deal full damage every time which even on standard ones is usually a ohk yet you call that balance?
any driver or pilot worth the title will be halfway across the field or have a car/ship that isn't crap and can tank a hit then book it out of there.
militia swarms(I use standard right now) kill militia armor. seems balanced to me. |

One shotting any sort of armor is a pretty screwed up system, I call bull crap since they go faster than and can be shot from a vantage point which disallows said driver to escape. I use swarm launchers on a regular basis, you can't tell me what they are and aren't broken against
so do I. I have seen plenty of tanks duck behind a building/rock or dropships juke them in the same manner. just because you play against terribad drivers does not mean all drivers suck.
and really, you think an open top car would survive a direct hit from four missiles, let alone it's inhabitants? |

really, so av should be what, puffs of fairy dust and prayers that the allmighty tank gods don't smite your sorry ass for even thinking to bear arms against their precious ultradeathmachines? |

Are you daft or what? I'm saying it should be less effective vs lavs and dses, not nerfed to being useless against tanks
why? they are free fits, should free fits give you god status? last I checked you fire a missile into virtually any car made today, it will be in a whole lotta pieces. now, step up both by a factor of a few hundred years(at the explosive growth rate of science and tech, that's probably what we're looking at.) and guess what, now you have a light vehicle that can take 4 missiles before exploding. I'd say that's progress. and note that all 4 missiles do have to hit for the kill unless you stacked damage mods out the ass. |

Every lav I come across (which includes standard are maxed at taking 2 shots before dying. In no way is any lav god mode, even after taking Av and other vehicles out of the equation
so the LIGHTLY ARMORED, MINIMALLY SHIELDED, VEHICLE dies when it meets ANTI-VEHICLE weaponry designed to fight tanks. So nerf the anti-vehicle weaponry? Why? It is doing it's job of killing vehicles. |
