CCP has again said they will hold off SP/WP awards to pilots.

tanks are so weak they are put in the same skill category as LAVs (LOL no joke, race> LAV operation, >> tanks or LAV scout/logi)

What I suggest we do, for 556k ISK we can form this load-out: 2x light clarity shield transporters, 1x light remote efficiency, 2x light azotopic shield extenders, 1x local PG unit (the 1 that boosts shields and stuff) 2x ST missle turrets, Myron haul. its a very cheap load-out for us pilots and what it will do is:

spam CCPs vehicle module charts with triage modules used by DSes.

keep our tank brethren healthy by giving a 24/7 shield heal and back up armor rep.

etc, I see it as worth it but note I got shield control lv5, shield boost lv5, field mechanics lv5, combat engineering lv5 etc so not all pilots will be able to jump on and do this, but to those who are dedicated enough please join me in repping tanks when they have 6k HP or more and the awards will be received through mail, CCP putting this at the top of their to do list and to help out the weakened proto tanks.

i only read the first sentence and need that cleared up but at fanfast they said the complete opposite in fact their are a lot more ways you can earn WP now apprently where you getting your info from

LOL I would have mixed reactions each simulation frustration to that announcement xD I`m sure this will help rather then do that though in all seriousness. Also I don`t expect a lot of pilots to jump on board with me but its nice to see hands up and get feedback to the idea, also tanks mail me when your online and I`ll join a squad, preferably 1 tank at a time but I can assist 2 tank at once, 3 would be a bit crazy.

Don't quit your day job. I think it will work, also I`m a student, if there is a place where students could quite then I`m sure the nation will be a lot dumber (sorry about spell errors, darn spell check refuses correct spelling ) Anyways I`ve been doing this for a month now and its not as bad as some of you pilots think so give it a go and see, also don`t do it for tanks that have less then 6k HP.

Man play with me sometime, i would love for you to help me with that (x Heck, i'd pay you for it. Save me some money on sagaris alrighty then! I`ll be on DUST514 in a little bit, join the: better hide r die chat room and I`ll send you an invite.

But this is AR 514 now, so it's all about Assault with an AR or I might make a request for it..... but another day, lets see the assault DSes first.

Shouper of BHD Better Hide R Die 85	Posted - 2013.05.03 18:24:00 - [10] - Quote yea its harder for a LAV since AV nades are a big factor and DSes are all the more cooler anyways

Shouper of BHD Better Hide R Die 85	Posted - 2013.05.03 18:41:00 - [11] - Quote I`ve done this several times and after 2 minutes yes they attack me then after I`m gone go for the tank but inless its a tier lv4 FG that I don`t react to and choose to say or a higher lv weapon 9inclueding proto swarms) but everything else I`m safe from because I can activate my reppers to the tank then move away without dieng, I got all the vehicle skills and heres a lists of whats left armor >module< skills lv4-5 (I fly caldari so not necessary) (I have field mechanics and combat engineering lv5). shield adaption lv3-5 (going to get it to lv3 and test it before the build, doubt it will work since its more for tanks but why not test anyways) small turret proficiency lv4-5 (Hybrid and missile, this only will do 4%+ damage to both once at lv5 getting me a new total of 55% extra damage per bullet/shot, atm its at 51% on my gunships). so I got a lot of stat HP and stuff backing my modules so my DS will take a lot even as triage, also its only 554k ISK and it will help us drivers / pilots out in the long run.

I barely tipped under 15% of my Shield when being repped by them + My own reppers. I was getting hit by Forges and Swarms too. Some fun times. oh yea that was one of the best tank repping battles I have had, they tend to get fun at times, got my first failure at it today though, that Sageris had 63k total HP and ran so fast under building it was getting insane.

If yes dropships aren't really viable as triage, especially with current defenses. well I`m used to flying low and slow, been doing it so long and haven't found to many issues after a week of triaging but yes you do fly low and near tanks but it will be easier come May6th ...... AND CHEAPER!
Shouper of BHD Better Hide R Die 86	Posted - 2013.05.04 14:39:00 - [15] - Quote new controls on May 6th so depending on how it works there will be pilots acwardly flying around the first 3 days lol, it seem better flight mechanics though, just got to get used to R2 / L2 rather then the L1 / L2 ... my mian intrest is, where are the modules activated? it can`t be L1 since its zoom, R1 is fire, O is eject, square has some use in the future... maybe X or triangle? I would hate it to be L3 or R3 to be honest.

Sorry, me & my swarm launcher, formally apologize. what's your Javelin / Swarmer lv? because most I can fly into and just shrug them off.
