I've noticed that there are a few armor players who are patient but uncreative and try to level bases by throwing shells from an extreme distance and height that you can't access from your turrets. This is annoying, since it is just enough of a threat that you have to do something while not being exciting to respond to.

The upside is, you can turn their lack of creativity into a repair farm for yourself in many cases. While it's true that if they are properly equipped they will most likely defeat you, most of the players that do this aren't using the most effective weapons for the job, and will be countered as soon as they target the AA or AV turrets: Add a repair module and then start spamming your repair tool(which is maxed, right?) and you will actually outpace them, earning hundreds of repair ticks. This happens because those turrets are so tanky already, and repairs work by percentages of max HP, so the HP goes up tremendously quickly.

Eventually they wise up and pick better targets or weapons, of course, but most of the players who do this don't notice for several minutes, in which time, they might be third-partied or run out of ammo. They get essentially nothing for their effort, your base is largely intact, and you're up by hundreds of XP.
