I'm trying out anti-tank lately and my problem is that whenever i fire my rocket, the tank fires and it kills me. should i be trying to curve that thing from a different angle so the tank doesn't give out its warning? i basically strafe in around building, fire, and strafe out. that sounds pretty smple but the tank still tags me sometimes. should i practice no zoom, curved shooting? or is it easier just to do what i do, strafe in around building with zoom, fire, strafe out. i want to be a tankers worst nightmare so please help me out.

Originally posted by Blackhawk5First thing from expericne, you just shoot, dont take a long time to aim, cause if a tank driver hears a warning he will deploy smoke and back away and see who is aiming at him.
Best thing you can do, have high ground, and learn to fire it without the zoom. Not zooming means you can poke out, take your shot, then immediately get behind cover again. Don't give them time to react, and they won't be able to. High ground works because tanks have a fairly narrow vertical field of view, and in the right situations, can't even shoot back, and usually won't have a wall to just kill you with the splash from.
And of course, don't shoot a tank while it's facing you. Don't even point it at them while they're facing you, keep your other gun in your hands until you're ready. They should hear the alarm, get slammed by the missile, and have no idea where it came from.
When you're too close to the tank (like, right next to it), often you'll shoot it and it'll start backing up, to both get out of the way and get you in the crosshairs, sprint TOWARDS it so you can stay in its blind spot and maybe get another shot off. DON'T try that against APCs though.

Originally posted by matashoi did do a search but didn't find anything to my liking so your tip isn't very helpful, sorry.
First thing you should do is Spot the tank to know where it is lookinh, then when he turns away shoot him.
And try to never shoot from the same position.

Re: tips on sraw/eryx shooting
i like playing AT alot, and I tend to never shoot in a straight line, always curve, it. You can fire, and then hide behind walls or sandbags whilst still aiming at the target and get good hits.
If you fire from a long way away, on a moving target, then you need to lead. Its doesn't put the alarm on the vehicle until the moment of impact.

Re: tips on sraw/eryx shooting
THINK FIRST! Ask yourself: Can I hope to bring down this tank or APC? If the answer is no THEN DON’T FIRE A ROCKET! Simple as that: but if you have good cover and enough rockets or if the tank is already smoking then fire away. There are 3 places to aim for: A= The front “roll” or the back “roll” of the treads. B= The bottom of the tank. C= The turrent of the tank.
Position- You need excellent positioning as an Anti Tank. Try to get above and to the side of where the tanks is/ will be. It makes it harder to track your position. Remember when you fire there is a trail of smoke…. So NEVER EVER fire from the same position in a row or even in a round. Be in a place where you can dodge down or slide over into solid cover. Even if you are concealed, in the open you will probably die.
When you fire a rocket swoop it in to hit the target so there is no warning lock, also this will make the smoke trail harder to trace
AT Strategies from my so called "old news" guide Maybe not so old... ehh??

Re: tips on sraw/eryx shooting
learn to shoot without aiming. It takes alot of practice, and at first you may see yourself putting a little peice of paper or something where the crosshair would be, but it was a HUGE advantage over using the scope. It takes ALOT faster to reload using no scope, and the biggest advantage, is that you can jump around and move freely while being non-scope. Being a very hard to hit target for the tank. practice makes perfect, so you may as well start now
