CharCharOdell Shining Flame Amarr Empire 297	Posted - 2013.07.08 22:23:00 - [1] - Quote In Chromosome, Armor tanks whooped shields up close, and at a distance, a shield rail was king. This was because of the glitched damage mods and passive skills that could bring a saggy with a particle cannon up to 5000DPS, where a well tanked Surya would bring about 3k. It seemed like the shield tanks were OP by comparison, but that was not the case, as only at a distance would they match the Surya, and with the Surya's passive blaster skills, they were king of close range fighting. We need to bring these tanks back with the old damage skills so that shield tanks stand a chance. Caldari needs to be a better glass cannon. They need to be able to dish out more damage than any armor tank can handle, within reason, or they will never be a good investment. In fact, Caldari tanks are the superior frontline tanks vs infantry bc of their explosive resistance, and maddys, for the opposite reason, are the better tank killers. This needs to be completely switched around. We need Caldari tanks to be able to boost their passive damage by 50%, just like in Chromosome. Any infantry with an issue shouldn't have one, because you'll get one-shotted by a rail or missile (direct hits, only), either way. This is a tanker issue; it doesnt even affect AV either because it has nothing to do with more 'tank' on tanks. I want to hear from the armor tankers and shield tankers bc we both need our own niches to fill, and right now, it's armor or be gimped.

That means ONE heavy repper (as burning starts around 1700 HP) and one av nade does about 1700 damage, so then u have to fit one hardener, and a good amount of plates (180's or 120's will do)..... so no, no armor tank will fit that and survive vs a shield tank at any range. it didnt work in chromosome and it wont work now- especially with nerfed PG. Lol. i dare an armor tank to fit 3 dmg mods and take a hit.

Yes I do, I was a tanker as well and I know that bringing back the:HOLY CRAP HE TWO SHOT A BOLAS tank ain't gonna help this game in any way especially with the larger maps we have now. 50% damage increase is insanity. The only thing it'll do is create chaos, encourage redlining, and get them the ban hammer twice as hard. I understand that shield tanks are struggling but this ain't the answer.
pegasis prime The Shadow Cavalry Mercenaries DARKSTAR ARMY 394	Posted - 2013.07.09 00:08:00 - [7] - Quote At first I thought bringing the damage levles back to that of chromasome was a bad idea , but it was the high dammage that put shield tanks on par with armour tanks as our reps have been crap for a while now.

The Attorney General ZionTCD 223	Posted - 2013.07.09 02:08:00 - [10] - Quote Good ole Charlotte, only ever whining for your own stuff back. Why don't you just make a signature that lets everyone know that you not only want to redline snipe, but you also want 15k eHP to do it in. Yeah, that seems perfectly reasonable and not at all pathetic.
shaman oga Nexus Balusa Horizon DARKSTAR ARMY 263	Posted - 2013.07.09 09:50:00 - [11] - Quote I use both tanks now, but i would like to buff the defense or the shield regen rate of shield tanks instead of their damage. As i wrote yesterday on my post, i would like to have the shield energizer and the reactive plates on vehicles, this two modules would allow us some good fitting options.

I remember when I finally got my compressed particle cannon. I was scoring over 3000 WP per match because I could kill any Bolas and the vehicle that it dropped quickly. Then Uprising deployed one week later...

Sir Meode Seraphim Initiative. CRONOS. 694	Posted - 2013.07.09 15:14:00 - [16] - Quote When you cant out DPS the rep from a HAV then there is a problem, either with the Reppers or the damage from the other HAV. Now i think nerfing the repper isnt the way to go because Armour HAV are weak against the easiest AV weapons in game so you then have to look at increasing the damage done. I would like to see the damage increased but you also need to look at Shield survivability because if you increase damage across the board they will be even weaker than they already are. So its not just damage that needs a possible increase but also the effectiveness of Shield modules for HAV's.
pegasis prime The Shadow Cavalry Mercenaries DARKSTAR ARMY 410	Posted - 2013.07.09 15:20:00 - [17] - Quote If say we had a heavy passive regen module that wod rais the passive regen somewhere between 70-120 hp persecond then shield tanks would be able to burst and buffer tank. I would happily give up a high slot for a heavy shield regenerator or possibly a heavy shield energiser possibly giving a reduction of 15% hp fir 300% passive regen as with current skills pasive is at aprox 26 so a heavy energiser with the stats I propose would rais it to 78 hp per second and that combind with the heavy boosters would make shield tanks more viable.

A shield energizere like the infantry already have.
Harpyja DUST University Ivy League 216	Posted - 2013.07.09 18:12:00 - [19] - Quote I'd like to give an alternate suggestion: Revert missile damage mods back to a 20% damage bonus like they were a long time ago and keep railgun and blaster damage mods at 10%. Hopefully this will give a bigger edge to a shield tank with missiles trying to assault an armor tank. Ony problem being PG and the lack of free low power slots to place even a single damage mod.

You also realize that shield tanks cannot reasonably passive tank either. Give us modules which decrease shield boost amount, and greatly increase passive recharge, then we'll talk about passive tanking.

Oh, look, the general showed up to say something is a bad. idea, funny thing is that you're an armor tank and this would make shield tanks viable again. you get threatened pretty easily, dont you. it's hilarious. now go away.

ladwar Dead Six Initiative Lokun Listamenn 808	Posted - 2013.07.09 20:17:00 - [26] - Quote you i know i think i have fix to this. inceased CPU on armor modules that shouldn't be stacked, IE armor hardeners (i propose it have a CPU of 56&25 PG), armor repairers( i propose 40 CPU). this would basically get rid of the problem, dual armor hardeners with dual repairers. also with this change the armor adaptation from CPU to PG. this makes sense because active armor hardeners are 5-6X more effective the active shield hardeners so it should cost more in fittings then not less. if CCP is not willing to make that big of a jump(on CPU) then atleast 40CPU on hardeners and 80 PG(or something like it), maybe more like 140 PG or you know make it like active heat sinks where it makes the fit invalid.

I want them to be equally effective. I have the same amount of SP into each so i see both sides of it and shield tanks either need to passive tank 100 hp/s all the time or damage mods need to do 20% again.
Aizen Intiki Ghost Wolf Industries Alpha Wolf Pack 122	Posted - 2013.07.10 01:44:00 - [28] - Quote That's what I was thinking: 100 HP is very reasonable for passive shield tanking.

I was an extremely casual player up until a few weeks before Uprising. I would play several games at most during any one day. I've been tanking since I started in the closed beta about a year ago and had gone through at least a couple of resets. But my minimal gameplay had me at about 5mil SP when Uprising deployed.
