I have an mvp 3 with a nautilus mini at 1.6 ohm. I've noticed that the mvp can fire down to around .5 ohm, is there a reason to want to do this or something I'm missing. I get decent flavor and vapor from my mini but I'm thinking of trying a kanger sub tank (bonus being I can carry multiple full tanks with me to switch flavor).
sub ohm on an mvp 3

I use an ipv3 and have a kanger sub tank and I love it and it fires at .6 at the moment and the only reason I'd say is that I get really good flavor and almost the same vapor as my RDA but my RDA also is wired to .095 ohm
And I'd def recommend the kanger subtank because it's super versatile and can be made to fit your need/want
The Subtank will be a different vape. Not only is it difficult to inhale mouth to lung, but distinctly different in feeling/taste/vapor.
I use the 1.2ohm OCC coil on the Subtank and basically run the same watts with both. (12-14). (1.6 or 1.8ohm mini Nautilus)
The 0.5ohm coil is *rumored* to be hitting it's best at 20-25 watts, so if you are not vaping at 20-25 watts, you might find it a bit odd.
There is a page of information I could write to explain further, but going back in time, you had to use a sub-ohm coil to get high watt vaping. Now, you don't. However, there is still a lot of sense in using the coil to suit your expected "power" of vaping.
Just for info, the two coil (0.5 and 1.2) are also different designs to allow more/less air... (I think that's right?)
The MVP3 specs read that it can fire down to 0.4ohms. Taking into consideration the amp limit, which I believe is 9 or 10 amps, you are going to be bumping against the limit at 0.4ohms. I think you would be more comfortable with making the low limit around 0.6ohms, so you have some room. The voltage limit of 9 volts lets you build pretty high to get all 30 watts. If I had the device I'd be using the range of 0.6ohms to 1.0ohms to get all 30. Anything above 1 ohm I'd probably fire it a bit lower of a wattage.
At the end of the day, if I used 0.5ohm precoiled heads in a tank I would probably be comfortable using it up to 30 watts.

No real point in using really low-resistance coils on regulated devices. You can reach high wattages without going subohm (on mech mods you couldn't), more wire will give you greater surface area, most regulated mods seem to perform more consistently with higher resistance coils.
