BF2S Forums Anti-Tanking: A Comperensive Guide

I'm actually strongly against the SMGs for one reason. You have no use for them. With a DAO-12 you're prepared for ANY situation. And this is where I disagree with your 'least point' statement. All classes have a weakness, except the AT with a shottie.
Think about it.

Medics, Support, Assault and Snipers are useless when armor rolls around the corner.
SpecOps and Engineers can't damage armor from a range.
Snipers are (usually) weak at CQC.
Engineers have no weapon (bar the MP7) for long range assault.
etc.

AntiTankers are prepared for every situation.
CQC - DAO
Medium Range Infantry Combat - DAO/Rockets
Long Range Infantry Combat - Rockets (one hit kill, unrevivable)
Close Range Armor - Rockets
Long Range Armor - Rockets
Helicopters - Rockets

Etc.

Plus you're the only class with a guided projectile weapon. And a damn powerful one at that. Learn to arc and you can hit anything.

No weaknesses. I personally, and I know a lot of others like this as well, find the AT class to be the best well rounded class. Period. Everything else has a weakness.

And if you're worried about ammo consumption, learn how to hit well or just don't engage the enemy. As an AT you can stay hidden and attack tanks, or choose to stay hidden. Attack if you have armor support or something.

I still stick by my guns.

Most comprehensive anti tank guide every.

1. Point.
2. Shoot.
3. Reload
4. Repeat steps 1 through 3.

On a more serious note: Nice guide, but I tend to crack under pressure during scrims and tourneys, sometimes even while pubbing. My entire aim is to score the hit ASAP and pull out my weapon to take down the opponent that's almost on top of me.

You missed out a vital portion about the rockets being used to take out infantry. In cramped areas its a boon. And when I hit a long range effort, I'll crow out on gamewide chat: WHO'S YOUR DADDY BITCH!

I've got a couple of friends who play by the 'SUBWAY! EAT FRESH!' mantra

acually the guns have more than what you said p-90 for example has 150 shots because you didnt include the magazine already in the gun.

I had a look at your stats, the P90 and G36E would be best. Not sure why you unlocked the SCAR-L and MG36 so early, they're both pointless unlocks IMO.

at the weps you forgot the wep has mags AND a mag in the wep so pp-19 should be 135 and p90 should be 150

A really good tip for anti-tanking with out being noticed is to use your numbers to switch guns.

Line up your shot with whatever gun you have first, then type 4 (or whatever you have your keys set to, to bring up your rockets) and shoot it right away, then type 1,2, or 3 to go back to your gun as soon as possible.

This keeps the lock noise the tanks hear to a minimum of a few seconds and allows you to be stealthy.

They don't make any lock noise unless you're zoomed in. Fire without zooming and no lock sounds off.

I shot a jet once with a SRAW and it didnt kill it. I dont know if the shot didnt register or what.

Thanks for the post, now I' m way more useful with the anti-tank kit.

Now that I know the 2 shots kill, tanks are not as fearless as they were.

Good guide mate. Would +1 ya but not posted enough yet!

I'm usally AT on maps to take out the tanks which would kill about 10-30 people. I dont use it for the kills, i use it to save teammates in squads etc. Usally i always have a full squad with 2 ATs at any time. My basic squad arangements are:
2 AT
2 Medics
1 Support
1 Sniper

Updated with AF info, vehicles and some SF vehciles.

The P90 and the pistol do the same damage.

Had a look, pistol does do 20, but loses damage after 100m. Still, P90s RoF makes up for it.
