There were only 25 tankers in Chromosome.e who could do that. Now there are 9. I mean, Chromosome was hard, so we adapted,but this is ridiculous. We need a price reduction OR a huge buff to match the cost.

9 is the new number I'm guessing? there are a lot of dedicated tankers who like to just run PC battles when we can and run the merc battles like I do. I can usually go 4-5 merc battles before losing my tank to the enemy and most of the time its running into squads who all go AV just to kill me. I don't know about you but when the whole team switches to AV just to kill you then loses because they got cloned not running any ground inf with AR I feel like I did my job just fine. Currently with those 5 matches I break near even for my tanks. Until the proto turret damage gets buffed I would suggest running adv because its 1/3 the cost for only losing like 10-20 dps on the blaster turrets. There are still tanks out there don't lose hope

Also as advice to people wanting to try tanks or any vehicle out for that matter, make a new character and go AV for a bit to learn how to kill tanks and then you will know as a vehicle runner what situations and areas to avoid. Just my .02 isk

With the exception of corps funding tanks outside of PC matches, which is really dumb on the part of the corp, most tankers will run out of their 250 mil isk buffer fromt he build update and soon all you will see are the good tankers clearing the map again, since no one else will be able to afford tanks, which are significantly more expensive now. Unfortunately, if a tank buff doesnt com soon that means tanks will remain the wa ythey are since people will start complaining about tanks being op again. same thing happened last build, tanks were ridiculously up compared to the build before that and there was a wave of buff tank threads until only the good ones remained, then the outcry switced to nerf tanks again. in the end, most people dont want to drop their ar and when they come across a tank and all they have are 3 AV nades and they die, their entitled asses think something is horribly wrong.

Just my .02 isk you need to reevaluate your understanding of tank turrets. its not a difference of 20-30 dps....its a difference of 20-30 damage a shot, with about 7 shots a second on a blaster. the difference is a lot more than a few points of damage...
