The Harasser before its nerf | PlanetSide 2 Montage 2021

[@Arkar-pl9ku]

I’m impartial to it, but honestly this means that harrasers can start to get buffs in other departments without needing to worry about rumble reps getting in the equation. In terms of valks though, rumble reps needed to be taken away, or at least severely reduced. No one likes dealing with an annoying ass VLG valk that just didn’t die.

[@tka4nik]

100% agree

[@kreuzfeuer1703]

I actually disagree, the Valk did get hit way harder. In a Harraser you are on the ground and can use your mobility and speed to seek cover and repair. In a Valk you dont have speed, you have to land first, and you cant take cover behind mountains and trees any more to repair. The only solution is to land now and thats where you are the most vulnerable, during landing and when landed. The Harasser dont need to land, they can just take the next rock and extend away.

@@Direblade11 I dont talk about power here but rather tactical usefullnes. The Vanguard is nowhere near to Prowler and Magrider in that aspect and even the Chimera can outperform a Vanguard without a special ability. I've seen many times peopele using deployed Prowlers as anti air because its hella good at it especially in Indar where you can get above the air vehicles. It just frustrates me that while my best option is to get a Skyguard or try and get my ap ligthing uphill or something to shot a plane out of sky a Prowler has no problem it even has 2 shots. I can talk about it all day but in short it is nearlry impossible for an TRvsNC or VSvsNC open area tank battle is impossible to win for NC.

IMHO I've always hated Libs more died more to em , but thats an A10 to infantry innit? Been playing since origional PS2 release and have never called for nerf

[@PainProjection]

Rest in peace sweet prince, i am infantry main, but harraser was my only exception, it was so fun to gun it if you manage to find some decent driver. Now it's useless and even nanite cost stays in nerfed state from previous changes. Wrel clearly doesn't understand what he is doing in this particular case. This vehicle was right on spot with rumble seat repair, easy to learn, hard to master. I liked to gun it without voice communication with driver. In this case, both: gunner and driver must achieve pure mind synergy and decide to repair/flee at the exact same time, just to make it work properly. Yeah, let's throw it away for some reason. Whats the point of rumble seat then? At least allow us to make 360turn in it (possibly including MAXes), just to compensate for lack of survivability with additional firepower from heavy assault.

[@LadyBaggins]

Exactly my thoughts, Wrel just listens to the wrong voices of this community.

[@Gorbag100]

to be honest, the problem never was 2 man harrassers. 3 man harrassers are something totally different. A repairing, firesupression, composit armor harrasser takes the same amount of AP shot as a MBT and that is if you hit all shots.

[@GHKiwi]

It is impossible to properly balance a vehicle that can repair itself while moving at any moment. Rumble reps removal opens a lot of possibilities to properly buff its weaponry.

[@tka4nik]

A different thing is that its a shame they delivered the rumbles nerf separate from some kind of a vehicle balance pass, but yeah

[@WitchDoctor87]

@@tka4nik I think it's rumble seat is what made it balanced. With out the rumble it's to easy to kill. Also, now what's what point of the rumble seat? A max that's pretty useless honestly and it's just a 3rd target that can die easy. The Carmira shouldn't even have extra seats. Those seats are just ridiculous, the only thing someone could do is use Archer engis with and jocky but that's such a waste of man power. This update with Harassers and valks really upset me even if I don't use them.

[@tka4nik]

@@WitchDoctor87 Its a gimmick. Rumble seats made it very frustrating to fight against a harraser. "Hit 3 ap shots, missed the 4-th, harraser got over a small hill, welp, i guess its back again to the beginning of the engagement, cause its full hp now". Also its MENT to be easy to kill. It was designed as a glass canon pre-cai. Now ranged halberd harraser becomes almost invincible cause of rumbles, and at the same time harraser lacks firepower to fight against any skilled mbt crew.

[@WitchDoctor87]

@@tka4nik I've always found Harassers more easy to kill then other vehicles. If anything deserves a nerf it's Air to ground. ESFs are a single manned aircraft that can keep people sitting in a spawn room. A Harasser I myself can make one run or kill it with 2 deci and some lmg fire or a AV nade. I think Harassers need very skilled drivers and gunners to be effective to fight against. Now I have to say since the change, even a duel flash duo is better then a Harasser team for less cost. Might be me but as a infantry main they never bothered me.

[@Gorbag100]

@@WitchDoctor87 to be honest, every harasser that survives long in deci/AV nade range fought against oblivious enemies. Like in the first AI clip. If even 2 had whipped out a deci or AV nades that harasser would have been screwed. The big problem always was at vehicle fights, where a 3 man harasser can survive more shots than an MBT, while being much more diffcult to hit and costing less.

[@WitchDoctor87]

I'm really not happy with taking away the repair seats. Might as well run invis Ants now only. I wasn't even a Harasser player, I always felt they where balanced.

If i came out on top he just runs and repairs and returns. Not much i could do if iam alone in a certain place without reinforcements as tankdriver. 2/2 for both vehicles were included.
