My Methana is assault recon fit - damage control, active scanner, overdrive, energized plating, and 60mm plate, and a blaster turret. No reps, just evac to a supply depot and sit the vehicle next to it. Free reps. If you drive well, you'll never lose it, and it's handy for revealing secret enemy hidy holes. And killing people, especially with turret gunner on board. Turret gunners don't get nearly as much credit as they deserve, I had a great one the other day. |

And that's the beauty of customizable loadouts. Go for a speed fit and ditch the turret if you want. |

Dependance on something relatively easy to destroy isn't the most favorable way, especially when no other vehicle depends on them as much, besides if you can't repair mid combat you won't last long after someone pulls our Av.
Don't be silly, I've taken AV hits, and then gotten the hell outta there. If I can't rep it, I'll have it recalled. Or, I'll go out in a blaze of glory. Passive tanking for the win. Believe it or not, the resistance plating, 60mm and damage control make it pretty freakin tough. And most stuff I can dodge anyway. I've probably avoided more than ~60% of AV fire coming my Methana's way. You just gotta know how to use obstacles to obscure line of sight with swarm launchers, and then just be fast as a ninja on amphetamines. |
