Yet Free LAVs are like free 150 points when they die.

You need to throw better. Seriously, aim for the freaking hood. Most of the ones you be throwing at are likely to be wounded from previous crashes. Set yourself in a place where if an LAV does try to run you over you can dodge it and laugh at their misfortune as they become stuck. Such as right next to the first supply depot by the table top on line harvest, got an LLAV the other day stuck there and well with a convenient supply of AV grenades you can guess what happened.

My problem is people are trying to get something nerfed that almost doesn't need it and the only reason why free lavs are so obnoxious is the simple fact people don't want to go AV. I mean at the start of this little rampage I was on average the only AV on the field. Now a days its 2-3 guys that swap to AV weapons and setups.

1. If you are forge gunning (LAV) you should NOT be in a place that you can get ran over. Use the terrain, use your damn sensors, use the uplinks that are safe.
2. Squad up with a Logi
3. Calculate your swarm shots on the LAV better, know when to launch and when not to launch.
4. Yeah sometimes the grenade misses or nicks the vehicle and sometimes it hits the pilot and sometimes it hits the critical spot and blow up the LAV. I am sure its more of a problem shared by the mass driver and flaylock at times.

Edit: I paid aurum for my' free' AV suit and all of the modules except one, the AV grenade at a low low price of 4k.

My problem with free LAV's is that they're too effective. Yes, you can quickly drop everything you're doing, including your playstyle, JUST to take out one single LAV, or you can go Proto AV Grenades and hope to 2-shot them, or you can just give up and let stupid players misuse them and play a game of GTA in what is supposed to be a tactical shooter. LAV's are unpunishable unless you have completely prepared for it, and even once you DO kill it, they're free, and you'll have to keep switching to crappy AV until they stop, which they won't.

If people just used them right, I'd be fine. But 90% of LAV users now do nothing but drive around seeking roadkills.

Rubbish, no one wants to nerf the dedicated LAV drivers, if someone wants to spend millions of SP and tonnes of ISK being a LAV expert, more power to him. People are just sick of the swarms of no-risk, indestructible, free LAV. Make it cost, reduce its HPs a tad, leave the other LAVs as is, done.

You have to live as AV for 3/4 of the match if you want to keep up with the number of free LAVs on the field.

Well sister, I rather have one guy be a combat effective anti vehicle guy than having my entire squad being biological speed bumps.

Because I am moot on the BPO issue. My opinion is invalid because I use said BPOs to kill BPO LAVs.

I did say nothing Advanced or Prototype but that was more of a counter Pay to Win argument.

My next question is what's the cost of a similarly fit LAV that has been giving you guys trouble? I mean look at the LLAV I know those have to be a bit more expensive yet they are definetly not free, they cost quite a bit of skill points to support and they certainly don't die to AV grenades that easy.

Also I am not sure if you noticed but the Dragonfly Scout is now on sale for Aurum. Which means future sales may include other former package exclusive stuff. Maybe in 3 months you can see the Ishukone Watch LAV being for free.
