Help with Over Tuning tank armor

**________________Fred** · Oct 7th, 2002, 06:08:20

Can someone explain to me how you over tune tank armor? I saw a post on this a while back, but I can't find it.

I'm completely new at trade skills, so an "idiots" guide would be very helpful.

Thanks

Fred

Here are the steps and information:

Take:
Very Light Tank Armor
QL:200
cold ac 250
fire ac 250
radiation ac 250
poison ac 750
chemical ac 875
melee ac 1000
energy ac 1000
projectile ac 1000
run speed -50
dodge ranged -50
evade clsc -50
duck explosives -50
nano cost modifier 3%

This can actually be ANY version of the armor Very Light through the Heaviest. Any quality as well. You'll need to have a Neutron Displacer that is at least 50 % of Armor Qlty. You can buy these in one of the tools machines in the Trade Area of the stores. Then it is an easy one step process:

Tank Armor + Neutron Displacer = Overtuned Tank Armor

Improvements are as follows:

OvertunedVery Light Tank Armor
QL:200
cold ac 350
fire ac 350
radiation ac 350
poison ac 850
chemical ac 875
melee ac 1100
energy ac 1100
projectile ac 1100
nano init -50

I am afraid I don't recall at the time what Trade Skill is used.

Bear in mind that these overtuned tanks only last 24 hours realtime played. Or was that 12 hours?

**RVWinkle** · Oct 7th, 2002, 15:29:55

Acually it's 48 hours which is a very long time. That'd be 8 days at playing 8 hours a day. By then you'd have probably outgrown it or found a replacement. It's a pretty good deal since the ql 200 heavy tank version gives more ac to the big 3 stats than any other back item in game.

Furthermore I think this item is still bugged where it doesn't wear out ever.

Thats the one

Thanks for posting the correct time.

Skills you will need are break and entry and Quantum Field Mechanics btw

Resume:
Anyway, here's the method, simple as that. You need:
1. Neutron Displacer
2. Any Tank Armor
3. Skill

I'm almost completely sure that overtuned tank armour doesn't disintegrate. I had 2 in my backpack that I had grown out of for ages, and they didn't melt or change in any way.

you are 100% right. over-tuned tank DOES NOT go away atm. yet another funcom bug? probablly, but finally one in our favor.

**Redrazors** · Oct 9th, 2002, 11:37:44

So basically if you don't overtune your tank armour you're nuts

**___________Svpernaut** · Oct 9th, 2002, 20:05:24

pretty much

**________________Fred** · Oct 10th, 2002, 04:49:16

Thanks for the help / info. It took me a while to find the Neutron Displacers. The sad part is, I totally forgot theres a whole "Trade" section in the shops. Untill now, that was just where you buy Nano clusters.

Does it work on albrecht tank armor ???

what are the difference ??

ty for answers ..

**____________Intrepid** · Oct 12th, 2002, 17:45:09

nope doesn't work on albrecht

**Octo** · Oct 16th, 2002, 15:29:35

But since this is a bug in our favour, do they consider it to be an exploit to wear the armor for longer than 48 hours?

Maybe we are required to delete it ourselves!

**ntrox1** · Oct 17th, 2002, 10:34:02

Lol yeah, an exploit cos FC fluffed up again. We all get banned! Yay!

**Mercatura** · Oct 18th, 2002, 05:17:44

Heavy Tank and OT Heavy are the best to use.

1300 or so in main acs, all have same reqs.

**marw** · Oct 25th, 2002, 09:16:36

If you use ordinary tank, Overtuning is a must

Very low req's for making them also.
I can make ql150's with no implants, and my enf is no master at tradeskills...

Blitzed 10 tanks before i found out there was no time limit lol, gave all those others away..

Too bad you cant overtune them albreights.. :/

**Mercatura** · Oct 26th, 2002, 17:48:52

Overtune Albrecht and you get this!

Too bad it takes 4000 B&E 2000 ME and 3000 EE

j/k

**xyberviri** · Oct 28th, 2002, 10:18:47

at level 51 my fixer can over tune Ql 140 tank armor that endes up as Ql 147 tank armor, takes about 5mins since i use two alts to buff his stats(engi[B&e] and trader[QF]/[EE])

Edit: so its acutally really easy for preatty much anyone to do.

its QF/EE=to Ql of tank armor and about Ql*2-3 for B&e
