Here we are making a list. This list will collect the opinion of tankers, and a few reasonable AV friends. No CCP fanboys, no AR players no nothing.
1) PG skill should be re-implemented.
2) Turret damage bonus of all types of turrets should be re-implemented. (3% instead of 1.)
3) Resistance of tank hulls should be increased againt AV by at least 35%. last night 2 swarm volleys dealt 10520 damage to my tank. Yes only 2 volleys, god knows how many damage mod that player stacked.
4) Railguns should deal more damage than a hanheld forge gun. (Forge nerf requested here.)
5) Scattered Ion Cannon's DPS should be more than a handheld D. Tac AR. One of them is a handheld gun, other is a tank mounted turret.
6) Active Shield Resistance module should be 30 second active and 30 second CD (Require opinions of serious shield tankers)
7) Passive regen of shields are joke, it should be 1.5x of what it is right now. (Require opinions of serious shield tankers)
8) Splash radius of missiles are joke, I have only been able to kill a few people with splash, it generally requires a missile to directly hit enemy to kill. All sorts of missile splash radius should be increased 1.5x
9) AV and Flux should branch off from grenadier to AV grenadier and Flux grenade Operation.
P.S. We want Surya and Sagaris back.
+ I find it funny how AV grenade of same level deal more damage to armor than swarm launchers.

Right after uprising launched I was all pissed off about it, but in the end it hasn't really affected my fits that much. You just have to make a couple of compromises in fitting. Not the end of the world, doesn't make tanks worthless either. Shield tankers have it easier in this regard, because they can slap PG extenders in the lows. Armor has to give up a tank/hardener slot. 2. Absolutely. 3. Heck no. That is complete overkill. What really needs to be done is remove the stacking penalty from the first resist module. There is no reason for my first armor hardener to take a penalty because I have a 10% resist skill. This reduces the effectiveness and therefore viability of using either passive plates or multiple hardeners, reducing fitting options, which is counter to CCPs' stated intentions. 4. Bring the Ishukone Assault Forge back down to pre uprising damage levels. Adjust the other forges accordingly. Not sure about the proto breach. 5. Agreed, although I think that is a matter of toning down the TAR rather than buffing the blaster turret. 6 & 7. Not really a shield tanker, so I will skip these. 8. Yeah, I have never liked the missile turrets, tried the basics, found them ineffective, had better places to put my SP. Ted Nugget can give you a better opinion. 9. AV grenades need a 15% reduction in damage, and a reduction of the seek radius.

Make it a 6%/lvl passive bonus, rather than a 5% because we were a little PG hungry in Chromosome, too. 2) Totes agree. Bring back the old damage system! 3) I'd say an automatic 15% resistance buff is needed, but then be able to skill up to 25% (5%/lvl) resistance to a specific kind of damage (explosive/kinetic/electronic/etc) This is why I can't take anything you say seriously. If you think you were PG starved in Chromosome, you just don't know how to tank, or you just want a super vehicle. When you make requests like that, it is plain you don't care about balance, you just want to be able to roll through whole teams in a pub match to pad your K/D. If you want to run top turret, top tank, top rep/booster, you need to use PG mods. That you don't want to make compromises in your preferred fit shows how one sided your train of thought is. Tanks were not OP in Chromosome. They need adjustment still, but they are not as UP as some of you whiners would like to pretend. Part of the reason why the game is so out of whack right now is because of requests like this. If someone listened to you, then we would have to put up with endless amounts of tanks are OP threads until they nerfed them even harder than they did this time. Then your crying would reach a new level of self entitled insanity. If you think about long term balance instead of me! me! me! like a six year old then maybe we could get this game to a good place.
