Player Recommendations[edit | edit source]
Lightly armored and mobile, the LAV-300 offers excellent firepower on a fast chassis. With excellent gun depression, reload, and accuracy, the LAV-300 can fight at long range and punish unsuspecting targets with a fusillade of rapid, accurate fire. Featuring excellent mobility, the LAV-300 can easily maneuver around the battlefield, using its camouflage to stay hidden. But this mobility comes at the cost of protection, with the LAV-300 having virtually zero effective armor against incoming fire.
