Currently it does next to nothing till your about 2m of closer to a LAV at which point it does full damage (or more or slightly less i have not checked in a long time. It should have its optimal extended so it can do more dmg to Lavs further out. Like regular HMG optimal ranges for infantry or maybe 2/3 distance of reg hmg optimal. |

What you need is a heavy weapon that is actually built to combat shields. |

You call a weapon that does 90/110% damage to shields/armor an anti shields weapon? |

Forge Guns did 100/100 up until recently, and according to the recent devblog they changed that to 90/110 (personally I haven't tested it, but others have as far as I know). |

I checked out the stats and you do 38% damage to LAV's with a HMG out to about 33 meters or so. 52% to the engine block and it drops off rapidly from there if you increase distance.
I would like to see that raised to 100% damage to the LAV at 33M and 150% to the engine block. I feel this is fair because a HMG seems like it should be a credible threat to a "light armored vehicle" at ranges inside 40 meters. It should however do nothing to a HAV.
A light jeep taking sustained fire from a heavy machine gun should be a bad idea. The LAV should be able to take Small arms fire from light weapons no problem but a "heavy machine gun" should shred it if it sticks around under constant fire.
The other numbers I could see would go with would be up to 40M 75%body 125% engine
I should note HMG's used to do more Dmg to LAV's but that got changed a long time ago and I dont remember the CROMO efficiencies. |

I remember chewing up high-end LAVs back in Chromo when I first got hold of a Gastun. I fell in love that day.
I support your effort. |

I think it should be 10 shot from the HMG and the LAV blows up |

Weapons shouldn't be dealing less damage based on range in the first place. |

Or increase the hitbox of the drivers. Save protected drivers for Medium Assault Vehicles.
Hell, I don't mind if dropship pilots flew with the top down if it meant we get the same HP buff as LAVs. |
