The AI can use bombs! Just use a drone o.o

Lol....seriously how many A.I's do you know that will just happen to have a salvage drone nearby with a bomb in it (Nuke maybe), bombs are too rare to store in fragile drones.

To tell the truth...I see no use for seige mode, on the tank.

If you use it and alien uses adren, he runs out of range and u waste 2secs reverting back (Sure you got speed boost to help but, the energy has to be kept for Ion Cannon and laser cage)

And I ain't never seen a tank full of batteries yet.

By mini paras i mean slithers. You know, worm+worm=bigger worm, bigger worm+bigger worm=slithers.
Furthermore, if you can't see how seige mode can be used, I'd suggest not using tank.
Cage + ion + seige = death even if they kill cage or take the time to put on a disruption suit and escape... Certainly alot better than some other ai abilities out there.
Lastly: not wanting to put bombs in a drone? Why not? If you're worried about them being killed and looted, hide them, or place the bombs in your rsm. I put a nuke in the rsm, its a perfect storage place until para either has tons of spawns or can completely own the ai solo.

AH THE FACTS OF LIFE!

Yeah slithers are the snapdragon models. I can see how tank can kill slithers easy, they're both ranged. You get Gargantuans attacking a tank...Seige mode ain't gonna help that much. It would probably be best to ion cannon the BIGGGG parasites becoz the parasite can never really micromanage them to their fullest potential (some pathing glitch prevents this).

I never like putting anything important in drones...humans might see a bomb...disruption one hits drones i think?

All im saying is that it has its uses. It can decimate mini paras without wasting any mana in a matter of seconds, which isnt useless. Personally i dont like tank that much, but i can see why people like it.
