I don't know if you saw the next patch notes or not but their nurfing LIS. I doubt their going to buff her also.
@MADMAC50KVehicles are supposed to be strong at least to some extent. Even then, infantry AT is not underpowered and is nothing like AA. There are TONS of ways to get very cheap and/or easy kills on ground vehicles.
Being able to jump out of your team's transport heli or the nearest skyscraper (or now - pondhawk!), fly on top of any enemy tank anywhere on the map, possibly even in spawn, except indoors (where other C5 risks exist), regardless of if it's a sitting duck or it's moving, then slap C5 on it faster than the gunner can react or driver can do anything is not underpowered. I killed an enemy TOR that dared to go outside of spawn in probably less than 20 seconds after it killed me in my Wildcat when I dared to go outside of spawn.
Being able to hit tanks from any direction for 35 damage because the turret is hittable from any direction, and 44 from behind, without any lock-on times or anything else, and optionally finishing off with an AP underbarrel if it repaired, is not underpowered. I'm sure many people continue to ignore AP underbarrels, but I don't.
Being able to slow a tank down (or if not moving at the time, freeze it in place), throw some smokes so they can't see where to shoot you, and C5 it, is not underpowered. In my experience I've noticed that often you can even just forego the EMP part, vehicle players will frequently let you get very close if you just throw some smokes to hide yourself from their view.
Being able to deal 54 damage to a tank that can not hurt you in any meaningful way because you're behind an entire hill 300m away is not underpowered. Just because you didn't kill the tank doesn't mean the damage was meaningless.
Being able to just plop some mines down on the road, particularly near the enemy spawn, again with close to no risk, and then getting essentially a free kill, is not underpowered. Sure, your mines can get destroyed half the time, that's still half the time you're getting free kills. I've literally seen large groups of teammates just walk over enemy mines on a point we captured and completely ignore them when not in any kind of combat. Not even being near your teammates is safe!
@MADMAC50KThe 1 AP grenade nerf was quickly reverted, yes, there are 2 now.
Even in the worst case scenario, you can launch a rocket and then follow up with an underbarrel AP faster than most vehicles can pop APS, and deal around half their health in damage that way. And a ground vehicle can't always reach you like a helicopter can. If they have APS, half the time you will have a decent opportunity to take cover. To be honest, the APS is very bugged, it destroys projectiles right next to the vehicle unlike what its description says, the light is often broken, being nonexistent or red when the APS is on, or green or yellow (red and green at the same time???) when off. That's still not completely gamebreaking.
They're not helicopters, they won't fly away where no one can reach them and have full health, they'll still be in the general area, still at half health. If you die, you can respawn and hunt the vehicle down unless it completely retreated into their spawn (which is a different issue), or it retreated deep into their non-spawn territory (which I think is fine, and does not completely stop you). Or, you can have teammates. For the RAM or Brawler specifically, you can poke them with the NTW-50 which deals pretty substantial damage (14 to Brawler, I believe 18 to RAM but depends on direction a lot?), is unaffected by APS and can be used from farther away.
I think in the general engineer case having to limit your weapon selection and sometimes but not always dying 1-3* times to still get the vehicle kill solo (which often nets 2-4 player kills) if there is no decent teammate around is fine. And if there is a teammate around, no AP UGLs are needed, RPGs are strong by themselves. Again, not like air vehicles with 1-2 players in them, where 10 people with stingers spread around the whole map won't kill the attack heli that flew outside the map any faster.
*Probably bad spawns
