Just because he is standing next to a mosquito in reinforced doesn't mean he is going to be able to pilot it.

-Edit: Where is the driver? Well, looking at that screenie, it seems like the engines in the mosquito are running, which means the pilot is inside. My guess would be that in the interests of framerate and simplicity, the cockpit glass of the mosquito is opaque and you can't see the pilot.

Derfud: You are wrong. Reinforced armor cannot pilot anything except quads and open topped buggies. No aircraft, no tanks, no IFVs.

I've heard it said (but not stated with absolute authority) that reinforced armor can be in the gunner position in anything. That remains up in the air until something official is stated on the subject.

reinforced armors can only drive the harraser and can be the gunner in any vehicle

agiles and lower can drive/pilot anyhting. Reinforced is meant for Grunts. Reiforced can drive any open cockpit vehicle and can be transported in the Galaxy or the 2 APCs. Also, the same rules applies for gunners. It has to be open cockpit to have Mediums gun

IFVs in the Planetside context would be Deliverers and Sunderers...an IFV is basically an APC with more guns on it. There don't appear to be any actual APCs in the game.

The official word was, "reinforced armors can pilot any open cockpit vehicle". Buggies and Quads I think.


Basilisk, Wraith, Harasser, Enforcer, Maurader, Thresher and Enforcer.

Agile and lower can pilot anything, and infiltration suit is lower then agile. And Reinforced can gun anything, tanks, Galaxy, you name it.

That pic is ancient. Med's cant drive air vehicles.

Age of the picture is irrelevant, since the person in the picture is not the pilot of the skeeter in the picture...

And id assume the pilot is taking the picture because medium just looked cooler then agile or standard.

lets see... these armour types can pilot the following vehicles:



Reinforced:open-toppedbuggies as harrasser, basilisk, wraith and empire specific buggy

agile, standard and infiltration armour: All vehicles- wraith, basilisk, harrasser, empire specific buggy, lightning, empire specific tank, deliverer, sunderer, AMS, mosquito, rever and galaxy, phew.

Max armour: NO VEHICLES CAN B PILOTED BY THIS GUY.



these armour types can be a gunner in vehicles:

reinforced, infiltration, agile and standard armours can be passengers in ANY vehicles they want.

Max: I dont think he can b a gunner in any vehicles



MAX AMOUR: can ONLY acces vehicles as a sunderer or galaxy passenger
