Cosgar wrote:Just out of curiosity, how much SP do you actually have invested into HAV? Are your core passives maxed? Were you in a squad? I can already assume the answer, but go ahead, surprise me. Got about 7 million SP invested, and like all tankers with half a brain I switched from pure blaster tank to railgun.
Infantry support doesn't help much when everyone pack AV grenades they can easily throw in between shooting faces. |

Leave the tanks for the people who are good with them, or put in the time to learn how to be good with them. It sounds like you are neither. Must be that.
Someone who ran positive ISK flow driving blaster gunnlogi and sagaris the first couple months must be bad.
And saying that railguns are what anyone with half a brain has switched to must mean I'm bad, not that I easily two-three shot kill anything blaster that tries to run the field. You are so out of the loop when it comes to contemporary tanking that you don't even grasp the basics of the issues we face.
You are worse than bad. |

Deadeyes Anterie wrote:So you are making money tanking 24/7, sounds like there was no problem in the first place. You're so good at tanking that you rarely ever get blown up, but you start a thread talking about how tanking is pointless because you get blown up all the time. Seems reasonable. Not me starting the thread; first mistake.
Assuming staying afloat in terms of ISK can be done by anyone but the best tankers; second mistake.
Not realizing that as soon as people learned to carry AV grenades and put a few SP into forge gun fits the only viable tactic is to do railgun sniping which has the additional negative effect of forcing _all_ tankers to go railgun sniper; third mistake. |

But keep padding those stats to make yourself feel good. Right, cause we should balance it so that the bottom 47%, e.g. you, never has to feel like losers. |

Bones McGavins wrote:How bad is your squad that an AV nade can walk OUT INTO THE OPEN next to a tank, jump around for 3-5 seconds without getting shot to death? Kill times in this game are not that high for infantry, even heavies, especially if 3 dudes are shooting at them? If you aren't capable of doing that then perhaps you... just... you know... suck? |

No, I'm waiting for Spkr4theDead, the person who started this QQ topic to discuss his SP investment, fitting, to get proper context as to why his tank got blamped so easily. If he had more than 1 mil invested, with core skills maxed, and wasn't going full blaster like a n00b thinking he can be a one man pub stomp, he probably woul've replied by now. Since he hasn't, it's safe to assume that he's the latter: Didn't understand how the skill system works, threw in the prereuisites to get access to HAV and thought he could roll around in god mode. In which case, I'll respond with: Working as intended. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transitive_relation
I recommend the above article, it's really enlightening. |

Exposed positions occur within open areas, but not all open areas are exposed positions. An exposed position is something which you let Railguns watch over. An open area that ISN'T an exposed position is an ideal patrol route for a Blaster tank. Most open spaces in DUST have at least some measure of cover that a Blaster tank can use. The ones that don't are dominated by Railgun tanks. So... non-open open areas? |

Not exposed so that you have not cover.
There are areas like this in every current map for both Skirmish and Ambush. So basically not open areas, got it. |

Ok, dedicated tanker but played with my infantry alt account for the first time in months...
And yes, tanks in ambush is stupid. So CCP, remove HAVs from ambush and un-nerf them for those of us who play skirmish. |
