yeah, i know we got a respec, and a whole pile of money, but still gotta think these things through a bit.... maybe it's not all about the gun when setting up a tank now, maybe it is the modules
I can barely fit a 180mm (made for HAV's) plate, heavy rep (made for HAV's) and a Large blaster (made for Gallente HAV's). Actually, I can't do that; it's impossible. I have to put on PG modules to do it. PG skill needs reverting back to it's old bonus. |

Has it ever occured to you that Fitting mods might actually exist to be used? Y'know since they're there afterall?
I can do it with dropsuits, and I should be able to do the same for vehicles. It's the same problem for my LAV's. But you wouldn't understand, since everything you got works |

PG skill needs reverting back to it's old bonus. sigh.... maybe put on the 120 instead, since they are a bit less intensive, even though you lose some armor. or, maybe use a higher grade tank? that's about my only suggestion, because fitting all the best on a Standard tank doesnt work, and is only marginal on ADV
Those are for long range and Medium vehicles. Plus, half is a lot. We tankers need that HP, since we accelerate like a snail. |

We tankers need that HP, since we accelerate like a snail. uhm.... those plates are what make your speed drop i hate to say, maybe a turbo module for the RLH moments? i'm trying to help come up with a decent idea or two with you, because tanks are sometimes too easy to kill, i'll give you that
Nitro (I assume) is, has always been, and will be a standard for Gallente and Amarr HAV's. It doesn't help as much as you think it would be. |

i get the gist about you liking being the heaviesst thing on the ground, but i dont think you should be invincible either. maybe try a low grade Hardener module to supplement your defence? either passive or active, but something to just plain reduce the damage you take, it might help with some of the issues
Your clearly not a pilot. Everyone uses hardners. That is not even opinion, it's law. Every pilot knows to use hardners. You would understand better if you were one. |

Everyone uses hardners. That is not even opinion, it's law. Every pilot knows to use hardners. You would understand better if you were one. used to fly around Dropships, i rather kept it light, mobile, and hard to take down due to that, i only used one sheild hardener, could take 4 FG shots before i dropped. i kept a mobile CRU, and i'm about to start working modestly on DS again. and i have seen a few decent tankers in my Corp that dont bother with the active hardeners, and rip other tanks that are using those active ones to shreds. please dont assume i havent tried a few things. didn't like tanks, LAVs are too common, and i dont see enough Dropships most of the time. honestly if i had a say about it tanks and dropships would get 5% more armor/sheilds, and maybe give tanks a new small turret configuration to try out. but if your survivability is an issue, then throw on more defensive things, and leave your turrets as the last focus
You guys found a serious tanker in the last week? Amazing... Anyways, the days of DS's tanking more than 2 FG shots is long gone. I can 1-shot any DS. Like I said, PG skill needs to revert, New skills to decrease ammount of CPU/PG ( which ever's more intensive. That should be the case with everything that requires it. Even dropsuits need this. Helps people specialize better, they'll want to stay on one type of fit for awhile to make it the best possible fit. |
