i think vehicals shouldn't be attackable by anything unless u are overt. if u are fighting PvE i tihnk its stupid that NS always destroy vehicals or any AOE enemy. no PvE enemy should be able to attack vehicals. like last nite i had my AV-21 destroyed by a krayt in 1 hit. we all know how fast krayts run to agro something else so i had pretty much no chance and there was 2 mil down the drain.
Yes vehicals should b attackable PvP no for PvE
if anyone agrees do wutever or just do a /sign or whatever people do

umm... well then apparently i cant drive my AV-21 anywhere except maybe in cities... ohh but i cant do it in imperial cities. so that leaves me to not be able to drive at all.

As much asI would like to drive my AV21 up to an Elder and be able to attack it and flee with no risk ... its just a bad idea for the game.
Bad for the economy (vehicle sales turnover) and bad for playability (game is easy enough as it is)

I'm all for vehicles being vulnerable in game play.
I think its great that a game can make you fustrated and excited.
I've lost my share of swoops to quenkers, bols, crystal hunters and spiders.
It can be fustrating, your HAM gets low and your burst run away. When you come back to finish the mission and your swoop is destroyed.
Its kinda funny to think Mobs beat up your vehicle if you run away. I can just imagine them cursing me out as they beat up my swoop after I burst away.
I'm not signing, just giving my opinion.

While I've lost my fair share of vehicles I think it is fine the way it is, even if a nightsister decides to aggro your bike while your flying past and takes it out in 2 shots leaving me running along the ground leaving a disabled speeder in my wake, the nightsister didn't even aggro me, just my bike. I couldn't stop laughing

I'm all for vehicles getting blown up but I sympathise with the author of the thread, maybe AV21s shouldnt be blowing in one hit, that doesnt even give you a chance to get away. Wonder how many people found out about nightsisters little vehicle-killing fetish the hard way...

Vehicles being vuln for attack is what makes this games vehicle economy going...
If what you are suggesting happened an entire line of business would be destroyed completely/ raise swoop prices.
Anytime I see a bike attackable, it is the first thing I shoot for..if you brought your AV-21 to a fight I'll try
not to kill it (unless you are a CM) but the first motion you make to get in it, it's history.
If you want to drive your most important vehicle on the most dangerous planet, then that's the fault of your own stupidity.

Well, vehicles need to be attackable/destroyable so people will have to continue to buy them from a Master Artisan. But I do think the HP on them should be raised up. Vehicles can be taken out in one hit, and it sucks. 
They should have atleast 30k HP.

YES. I've had my share blown out from under me, and it's a viable part of the game. From the combat side, it makes you remember that you need to be thinking about your logisitics. Mounts are attackable, so vehicles should be too. From the crafting side, it's a good thing for the economy.
PLUS- you really need to store your vehicle when you're not on it! It is buring up the HAM bar while it sits idle outside of your datapad...
