Why did you spec into tanks after seeing all of the previous generation of tankers tell you how broken they were? |

I've beta tested since the start, and I started a new HAV pilot just a few weeks ago which is making money and topping warpoints with HAVs just like my old character in the "golden age" of HAVs.
Problem is while they might need a few buffs, they are largely precision tools that too many people use (and thus lose) as hammers.
Few things are wrong with HAVs, they can be incredibly dangerous and change the tide if used correctly, they just can't really be used as, well, like a tank... But they are very useful and I have no regrets.
Drive smart. |

The old tanks were OP as hell, and the old tankers were used to that.
I'm still seeing some HAVs lasting the entire battle by actual skill rather than playing the redline. |

You've traded a booster for another heavy shield? But... why? You're a mad man. |

during our "Golden HAV Age" we couldn't be stopped by anything, even the militia tanks were feared, now the militia tanks are complete trash and the standard tanks barely stand a chance against standard AV. its truly become complete skill in driving to pilot an HAV and survive the match, but honestly if your going up against our Vets from closed beta, your going to die hands down unless you have an entire squad of AV ready to attack him if he shows his cannon. |

yes and that is why i also say tanks could use a buff here and there. especially shield tanks. I have always been a shield tankers but since the new build shields tanks went to **** and it is all about armor railgun tanks now. blasters and missiles tanks are nowhere to be seen in PC matches because people rock advanced/proto av and you die before you can even fire once. |

I thought so too, but I die much less now. I can have two damage mods and heatsink, and maybe throw in recharger.
2 passive resist
1 heavy extender
heatsink
passive recharge
Low: damage mods
With a proto rail gun of coarse. |

I've seen several HAVs today survive with AV after them. They barely survived a few run-ins, but they still survived. But the AV was usually only the joint effort of an AV grenadier and either a swarm launcher or a forge gun. |

congrats to them. but if my LLAV has more overall EHP from resist and higher speed and stronger weapon tht OHKs everyone there is no point of HAVs. Cause they r Weak. |

Last time I checked Tanks can still dish out the hurt but from a supportive role.
Played a match last night were a Madrugar pilot went 32/1 and was tanking AV fire throughout the match (anecdotal evidence sucks I know).
To be fair Im a pretty skilled AV trooper on my 7m SP alt but even I cant go head to head with tanks solo. Don't understand what you are complaining about O'dell since tanks still are a terror on the battlefield. |

I don't want tanks to be changed, because when ccp brings in more advanced levels of tanks everything's going to be aok. And by that I mean ill have another 79-1 game with my sagaris, be warned. |

The real problem now is the active modules wheel, 1 time on 4 my repairer doesn't work and at least 1 time every game it pass from online to cool down without activating his power.
Tank vs Tank is better than before.
Infantry still have powerful weapons compared to our defenses. |

Activation of modules is not a problem worth mentioning, just don't freak out when you get hit and only activate them once. |

I wonder if CCP intends to give us proto and adv HAVS...then we'd be fine but until then we're trying to use std defenses against proto AV. |

Hit me up tonight. I'll let you drive a 1.5 mil isk tank and if you don't die you get to be right. Oh, and it'll be a Maddy with a blaster, too. Good luck getting more than 5 kills. Seriously. Hmu. I'll give you my tank. I'll give you three. |

I love my tank. I held the bridge on that dom map from some imps with just my tank and 2 inf guys. That was a good game, we all have bad ones though and it hurts us more because of the isk .
What I have been doing is spider webbing with maple, I run my char with 2 light aezotrpic shield boosters cycling them. When one finishes I activate the other rinse and repeat. And since my char can tank some serious AV I am able to keep maple in the fight longer.
Just have to have a tanking buddy. Running in two's is much more fun and spreads the av. |
