CCPs balanced them according to the best tank fit against the best AV damage.
If i told most tankers that if theyre putting more than 1 plate or extender on it theyre doing it wrong, theyd say im crazy. Then I'd laugh @ them and slam em w/ proto FG.
The real problem is that we got proto AV against standard HAVs. Give us proto HAVs, then we'll see who's laughing as I stroll casually towards your proto FG and personally slaughter you with a small blaster turret.
Then youre not a real tanker. Properly fitted Maddys take 10 shots in a row from ishukone assault FGs, but my guess at the most you can take 6 right? Stop asking for a crutch because you don't know how to fit tanks. Not that proto tanks will be any better, likely the marauders will simply be brought back, and they were BARELY better than STD tanks while costing an insane amount of isk. Learn to fit & use a STD tank or you have no future in tanking, believe me.
So many things wrong with your post. First of all, I have tanked ever since I started and I endured a couple SP resets, which would place me about a year ago.
Second, I run Gunnlogis only, as I see no point in thinning out my SP over both armor and shield.
Third, you're using FGs against armor. FGs are bonused against shield. I hope your AV brain can comprehend this. I have gone down in four proto assault forge gun shots. That means 6 seconds total to shoot an entire FG clip at a huge and slow moving target.
Fourth, properly fitted Maddys take so many FG shots because not only are they not bonused against armor, but armor reps can negate half of your damage, at least. It's a different story for them with proto swarms and AV grenades though.
Fifth, I'm not asking for a crutch. I know how to fit my tanks. Shields need to be buffed.
Sixth, well now I'm just ******* irritated by the ignorance of your kind. Every ******* AVer wants to solo a tank. Then Dust is the wrong ******* game for you. Stop bitching and crying "tanks are OP". You, however, are the worst piece of **** I have ever seen. If I ever see you in game, I will make sure I ******* run you over with my Charybdis over and over. Because I will not tolerate people like you.
GTFO, this is not the game for you.
