Do both AB elite and raid assault effect AB ATGs?

well they both effect the crew, but neither effect the gun. So as far as the at gun itself goes, it is not effected. But your crew will be more badass, and thus able to defend it better.

that sucks, hmm, there really isnt any point in running AB ATGs then, and just focusing on RRs.
I bet if this stuff effected the weapons themselves we'd at least see some AB ATG instead of just RRs.

They are still worth using, the crew have more health and they benefit from the T2 that improves penetration by 20%.

And don't forget the instant response that AB ATGs give. With the T3 you can have ATGs dropping in at 10 seconds. The time it takes to walk in an ATG from your spawn to the frontlines might be too much, resulting in you getting overrun by a major tank push. However, if you can paradrop ATGs in 10 seconds, you could just fall back momentarily (using your RR's to hold the line for a bit) as your ATG is coming in.

biggest problem atm with AB ATG is you need to retreat the crew at vet1. Becuase otherwise you will never kill anything.

Yea, it's really unfortunate that the AB ATG was overlooked when they fixed the vehicle vet bug. Also, to add on to what I said earlier, ATGs can't get kited but RR's can be kited until you get AB Elite. Then you'll be the one kiting the enemy tanks  |

Personally I'm using 3 AB atgs, no normal ones. As fallensoldier said, combined with the 10 second drop t3, this gives an unparalleled quick-response heavy hitting AT option. I drop them in with either an AB RR squad or an AB BAR squad. ('course, I haven't played much EiR lately, what with picking up WoW again and the vet 1 AB ATG bug.)
