AV mana turret!!!

They probably did loads of stealth changes again

Interested in the LA hotfix. The sentence in the patch notes needs a hotfix!
Can anyone finish the sentance?

The invulnerability changes are most welcome.

As are the lock-on & jetpack fixes.

and broken many other things.

Turrets are normally a death sentence for Engies... Who will be brave enough to use one against a tank?

I could probably count on one hand the number of times I've died to an engi turret, BUT WHO CARES AV TURRET WOOOOHHHH!!!

Who bets the AV MANA turrets are OSK on infantry?

Higby said the LA's fuel regen and capacity cert upgrades sometimes didn't spawn with the player.

Depends how quickly they can destroy them. If they are quick enough, I could see people setting them up in windows or slightly behind hills and things like that. Windows in particular since they made them so much smaller.

Its offical:
Light Assault – Fixed a bug where jump jet cert progression would not properly (finish their sentences)

****, i attack MBT's with the Flash. I ain't scared!

Flash mounted Basilisk rushes are OP.

*raises hand*
When im out of mines i already throw rocks at tanks! A turret might help

Hopefully the AV turret has long range so we actually have a fun replacement for lock on weapons to help fortify bases against enemy armor. These things would be lovely to set up on base turrets etc to supplement the AT turrets already there. The user would be very vulnerable to infantry and snipers and often air but that is the tradeoff you should be expected to make to get a long range AV weapon. If its short range it will suck big time :/

Edit: The more "fortification"-type things we get the better, that way we can hopefully avoid forcing weapons like the annihilator being the only answer to enemy vehicles and making pretty much everyone unhappy.

I take that challenge sir lol.

Also most Engis suicide mine Sunderers so this is no different really.

Thus...makes me wonder...why did SOE bother to add an AV Turret for engineers when players are not stupid enough...cough...I mean "brave enough" to use a turret against a tank when the tank can kill both the turret and the engineer as well as those standing next to the said engineer in less than two shots? So, either SOE is giving the AV Turret a super shield or it is just another "why it exists" item?

All good changes. The lock-on fix is the main thing really needed, though the AV turret could be interesting. It'll probably be no more use than the max AV...

glad to see revive immunity going and I'm going to try out the AV turrent

Also who bets AV turret is 1000 certs?
