That's pretty much the mindset of all dedicated dropship pilots in one way or another, because they wouldn't have made it a second as a good ds pilot if they couldn't adapt to the bullsht CCP already handed down to us. But i agree, even though this 1.4 update with swarms is completely un-warranted/needed at all, I am more than willing to show CCP that i could give less of a fck in the first place. |

Well I'm a dropship pilot and I am not affraid of these changes. Should I be? Maybe, however swarms can kill vehicles now anyway, and since we haven't even seen these changes why are vehicle pilots so scared and outraged?
We should be doing what we have always done, learning adapting and getting on with our jobs.
Pilots have been tested time and time again, I don't intend to quit now because of a slight change in swarm launchers.
If anything its a challange, and I intend to meet it.
Will I loose more dropships? Yeah probably for a while, until I adapt and restratigise.
So harden the **** up fellow pilots, we got work to do! I admire your enthusiasm and nearsightedness  . You realize that HAV pilots have choice - they can switch to railgun and.. you know how it's gonna end for DS pilots. But hey, your struggle gives me strength, keep up the good work  . It is true that dropship pilots are not known for their farsightedness, as most pilots choose the role knowing the drawbacks. This has got me thinking about how to deal with redline railgun tanks, I'm thinking putting a forge and some swarms up high near the red might do the trick, but we will see! Happy hunting!
The way that i have found most effective is this; skill into an advanced large railgun and fight fire with fire  |

No you don't, because the people you'll be shooting that railgun tank at are the ones who live to screw DS pilots over every single day. You have no idea how good it feels to blow up a railgun tank that has been trying to destroy my dropship by using my own railgun tank against them. |

You have no idea how good it feels to blow up a railgun tank that has been trying to destroy my dropship by using my own railgun tank against them. well then I might just have to skill into tanks a little. I was planning on skilling into logistics and scout Lav's anyway (not to run people over but to use them for what they are actually meant for) Would you recommend a gunlogi or just a sica?
I'd go Gunlogi, It doesn't cost as much SP as you'd think since we're already skilled into caldari dropships, one of the most essential and costly parts of tanks we have already covered; shield extenders. My gunlogi has an advanced railgun turret and 6,100 shield :D |

I was thinking of what to skill into next as I've almost completely flushed out my shield vehicle tree. This is where I got the idea to tech into LAV's as I already have the skills for proto everything. Might as well put them to use right? Tanks are too cumbersome for my play style, though if its just one to deal with these poor scared tankers and to give them a taste of their own medicine then I'm game! Thanks for the tips![/quote]
Yeah i actualy skilled into a LAV recently as well, but I still don't really enjoy it that much so I'm kind of regretting using that SP, and for me I'm not skilled into a **** ton of other vehicles so LAV skilling is a pretty big sink for me at least, although the reason I am kind of sticking with a logi lav is because it can actively heal ground units, and in PC there's a strategy that could really be hard hitting if i skill into it right. |
