Proto swarm is 330 damage per missile, x 6 missiles per shot for 1980 total damage if they all hit. Proficiency 5 could bring that up to 2277, but even with a stack of complex damage mods I don't think you'll crack 3k damage per salvo. If you took nearly 10k in damage, either something glitched hard or you got hit by multiple weapons at the same time.

Or you're counting somebody shooting you 4 or 5 times in a row and adding it all up, in which case you should have moved to cover.

I don't know how, but it said "9860" from Wirykomi Swarm Launcher right after he killed me. I didn't believe it at first because there is no weapon that can bring a tank from 6870 to 0 in one hit, but it happened, according to the data from the kill screen. I'm really hoping this is a glitch bc if it isn't, proto tanks will need 40,000EHP to counter that.

I'm pretty sure that's the sum of all the damage your killer did. Is it possible you encountered this person more than once that match?

I'm really thinking this is the case. The killer did 9860 damage to the tank between all the missiles he fired, totaled up. Factoring in how much your shields recharged or armor repaired between shots, it could easily take that much to kill even a low end tank. I've had games where I've inflicted 50k+ damage over the course of a match where I was mostly just plinking away at tanks/dropships with swarms, and not actually gotten any kills because the targets kept slipping away and repairing before I finished them off.

Tanks are broken right now, face it.

I took the numbers from Hobo as "correct" at

2275 for proffeciency 5 proto swarms.

This means with 3 dmg mods, against armor, in your fuel tank in the back, he would hit a swarm for 8595 dmg.

So with some quick math assuming his numbers are true, including stacking penalties, we get a number not TOO far from your own. I'm guessing there was an AV grenade in there or one/two missiles of an earlier volley got through and then you ate one direct one.

That dmg is still ridiculous enough to oneshot almost any tank.

WBT Video.

Not tanks, so much as not having adv and pro tanks

Do you mean WTB?

I can't think of a single acronym that makes sense for "WBT video."
