From my thread Fix Shield Tanking
Shield should be able to burst tank like in EVE, not the other way around as it is right now where armor requires a lot of damage while its reps are active.
Shield boosters should rapid pulses in comparison to armor reps. A shield booster should give more hp/s than an armor rep when it is active though. Something like 350-400 shield every second for 5 seconds and a cooldown that is longer than it is currently would be considered burst tanking.
Armor reps should be slow and rep more per rep, but can be held more constant as opposed to shield boosters. I suggest doubling or tripling the amount of armor repped per cycle at the expense of double or triple the pulse interval. Also reduce the cooldown.

Honestly if you can't kill a armor tank with av your doing it wrong. Change up your gear, or wait for the tanks modules to shutdown it really is that simple. Calm down i'm just saying the armour repper reps way to fast compared the the shield rep.
Does it? I've always wondered if the armor rep does cycle faster than the shield booster, because according to the attributes, the shield booster should cycle faster than the armor rep, not the other way around. |

Before, shield tanks used to be clearly better than armor tanks. Now when CCP nerfed shield tanks, they overdid the nerf, just as always. Some examples include missile turrets and swarm launchers.
The opposite is also true when they buff. Now we have a TAR epidemic which probably won't be fixed in the way it should be. |
