I don't know what kind of skill multipliers the OP used in his calculations to determine that 1.2M SP is needed to skill into LLAV's, I did it with a starter SP char today.

Vehicle Command I: 6,220 SP

Caldari LAV I: 24,880. II: 74,600. III: 174,120

Caldari Logistics LAV I: 31,000

For a total of 310,920 SP To a logistics LAV.

Not that I'm complaining about LLAV's being OP, my beef is with Free militia BPO LAV's. Who the Hell ever thought they needed a 60% HP buff?! Seriously where the hell did that come from.

Honestly I think the problem lies in basic A/V weapons of all types no longer being able to OHK a Militia LAV, and people know this and take advantage of it to gain cheap kills.

Edit: An entirely militia fit Charbydis will run about 120K. Fit with a few Basic skill Shield modules and turret is up to around 150-160K. Although it will tank 4-5 MLT swarm volleys in succession and keep on trucking, 20+-0 is easy. Granted I've been playing academy battles with this char but I'm already at 12.07 k/d with 10,000 WP.

Now, I want you to drive around in said LLAV and compete against mine. The additional SP is spent on Core skills, a necessity if you want that LAV to survive the match, not just a throw away vehicle.

I haven't lost one in 4 matches, about 50 kills...... I've spent the remaining 240K SP on vehicle upgrades. I never said the LLAV's need a nerf, why did you feel the need to post an e-peen stroking comment like that?
