Unless you launch it off a cliff into another LAV it will never work.
The splash damage range of a "blue" LAV is larger then any grenade, any turret, or any Forge gun in the game....and for some reason jumping out always slams on the breaks. |

They're nice target practice honestly, although if i'm not in AV gear it is frustrating.

Funny how a lot of the people that are complaining about LAVs are the same people that tell anyone that complains to HTFU  |

Whether it is Swarm or Forge if you're not at least putting in close to a million SP then give it up and follow the AV grenade advice.
I was actually in a match the other day against a bunch of guys spawning LAV's [pretty sure they were free, but can't be sure] and just constantly running us down in them. Switched to my Militia Fatsuit fitting [it has STD AV grenades, as well], and I'm pretty sure I took out at least two or three LAV's. They definitely take a hell of a lot more punishment now, for sure; it takes two STD AV nades to kill the free LAV, but they still fall pretty quickly if you know what you're doing.
And as far as I'm concerned, everyone should have a Militia fatsuit with a Forge Gun, no matter what they spec into. Because the minute a team starts calling in waves of vehicles like that, you only need a couple guys respawning with Forge Guns to make them realise they can't just run you down, they'll have to earn their kills. Yes, it's really hard to kill with an unspecced Forge. But all it requires is you getting used to it and maybe getting covering fire from teammates. Hell, a coordinated squad with Militia Fatsuits could probably take out any vehicle they come across. |

I've dodged 3 LAVS at once, if you can't dodge 1, then you deserve to die. |

It is fun to practice LAV dodging skills, and free LAV's mean fun splosions with AV nades.  |

To be fair, I didn't think it was a bad idea to invest some SP into grenades anyway. It gives options. I like options. :) |

if we're going to have free LAVs zig zagging around the map on a vehicular homicide high then maybe consider nerfing their armor back to chromosome level or unnerfing AV grenades
Get rid of them for all I care. I use a tanked Methana. Only lost three total, not too expensive. Still running people over with it, frequently. Jump in the gun sometimes too when they try to hide from my bumper. With an active scanner, it also makes for an excellent fast reconnaissance unit.
As for the freebies... like I said, get rid of them for all I care. But what are the new players left with? The ones that have yet to skill into anything? Four starter fits that more advanced players with HAVs and Logi LAVs can run down? Sorry, doesn't make sense to me. Let them have their free LAVs so they at least have a quick getaway vehicle handy. As for vets using them for the purpose you're complaining about, you are going to have to... wait for it...
"Adapt or die".
Because, to be honest, if they get rid of the free ones, we're still gonna use Methanas and the like, and they have better tanks and are harder to destroy, and we will use them for the same thing. Over and over and over until you learn how to jump out the way and pack AV. I killed seven starter LAVs in one match today with a Militia swarm launcher from a position with a nanohive. Don't even need AV grenades. My Methana? It takes a grand total of FIVE militia swarm rounds to kill, and that's on a passive tank.
So remove the free LAVs. Then suddenly, the murder taxis being used will be even harder to kill, and you will have to... wait for it...
