"i would understand them sucking when your not with your corp"
really you would? i'd be fascinated to hear your logic.
why should a tank only be useful when with a team? assault suits don't need a logi, sure they're nice to have, they make reps faster but they aren't critical. in chromosome tank skills also effected dropsuits now they don't, so any pure tanker is absolutely useless outside his tank. so he can't operate outside his tank and he can't operate his tank without a squad. do you see any other class like that? assault suits that are useless without logis? scouts that are gimped to uselessness without heavies? no. all classes maintain a certain amount of autonomy why is the tank so different?

hey the tanks really dont suck to be honest with you guys. i would understand them sucking when your not with your corp but when in a team with your corp epecially in merc battles they are quite powerful i own a madrugar on my betty white account and man that this is beast. they have flaws yes but definetly not enough to make people stop using them.

blame your team for not running armor/shield repairs
you know you can run both on lav's? also running your tank with modules that count instead of beefing all armor or just turrets.
but the main key to keeping a tank alive is teamwork if your corp clan or group is doing what needs to be done your tank will become a force to be respected.

skill up wisely READ your skills before you skill into them and quit your B!tchin on the forums.

Lurch knows his tanks. This gets the CharChar stamp of approval.

Shhh! Be quite! Tankers want CCP and the community to believe they can be OHKed by a BB-gun, you're going to ruin their chance to be buffed into 100% invincibility!

tanking since day one. the people who matter know who i am.

edit: btw, char sorry aobut not being able to duel you earlier. as i said i wasnt sober cause my friend's mother just got the all-clear from cancer and i had a few in her honor. Next time ill probs be down unless there is another wierd situation. we could also just squad too n have fun that way.

OP thinks hes a tanker because he uses one on his alt

lolno

lol its funny because all i see when i play you is your kdr go negative.. in tanks and ar game. so shhhhhh thanks your definetly not anywhere near my skill.

Some of the issues are really simple..

- Tanks v Infantry is balanced by Public Matches, if a Tank wants to roll out into the battle in a Corp Battle, chances are it will die very quickly.

- Skills are changed without us being told, ninja nerf'd or completely redone. Look at Turret Skills (1% damage instead of 3%) and Engineering (5% CPU reduction for Powergrid modules instead of 5% to Powergrid)

- AV Grenades do more damage than a Swarm Launcher at the same meta level

- It is impossible to fit all standard gear on a standard tank without having powergrid modules

- "Prototype" Tanks aren't Prototype, they are specialized and thus have drawbacks which brings them in line with Standard Tanks, currently we are running all Standard.

- Because of the above, Tanks are always at a disadvantage compared to AV as we have no prototype Tanks, but Prototype AV.

- LAVs are stronger than a Tank. (Proof? Watch me drive in and eat Lai Dai AV Nades, better yet, ask someone like Dalt or Askull who spent a while tossing them at me.)

lol if you mean this chara its dead, i havnt used this in months

If you mean my proper chara then you must be blind, when i tank i rule the field, when im bored i LAV race, why go hard in a pub match?

Plus ive played with you and your clan before, not impressed, below average i would say and none of you can tank for **** i suppose thats why your clan split up into 2 and you lost your best players
