Hahaha I've been waiting for one of these threads. First of all this guy was shooting at them with their hardeners on, not something I would recommend. This guy also almost killed the incubus if he hasn't missed the last shot he would have got him.

Surely the fact he would have got him if the last shot hit proves that it was a good idea to shoot at the hardened DS?

Against an incubus maybe. Forge gun does bonus damage to armor. Hitting a python with its harderners up is pretty useless unless you want to knock him about which yes does rob him of a lot of his window, however you probably won't get the kill that way. Besides I just said i don't recommend it, if I was fighting an dropship I'd wait till I had my window.

Also I have no sympathy for mercs who shoot at me with assault rifles and expect anything other than being killed. I wouldn't have even seen these guys unless they open fire on me and show me where they are, I mean what did you expect? Pro tip, when you see an assault dropship run! Find cover! Don't try and be Rambo!

One point I can agree with is that the foeprge gun should get its charge time back. What do forge gunners think about that for balancing?

Rumor has it that CCP is planning on bringing back WP for damaging vehicles and then you'll get credit for forcing a retreat. Overall, the engagements looked balanced to me. // Spike Lieutenant // Matari Logistics / Scout / Pilot // @ReesNoturana

He wasn't a rookie either- I could tell by the way he was attempting to speed away, the turning, the twisting. Made me feel good shooting it down. I normally get the boring pilots that don't even attempt to evade (which makes me feel bad). Dropships are pretty weak. "Go ahead and dual tank.

Sir Snugglz Red Star. EoN. 209	Posted - 2013.12.25 19:31:00 - [19] - Quote Don't blame the derpship. Let me correct you, active modules are op (Still disagree), for they create "windows of opportunity." like tanks, you're better off waiting until modules get on cooldown... and if a pilot decides to run away before that happens... I call him smart... not op. intelligence is not op. strategy is not op.... get on our level. lol. so you cant shoot at derpships by simply pointing and shooting???? what, you need to actually use strategy? OMG!!!! brains must be overloading.... hahaha.

Ander Thedas Subdreddit Test Alliance Please Ignore 164	Posted - 2013.12.25 20:56:00 - [23] - Quote As someone who's rocked both FGs and done a decent bit of dropship piloting this forge gun user is pretty damn good. He manages to hit 3/4 shots in a relatively low time frame for them on the last dropship. The first one is the same, plus it was getting hit by swarms. If anything the O.P. is probably more skilled than the pilot. Does that say anything about balance? No, nor do I intend it to. But simply jumping on the bandwagon of trying to knock down anyone who opposes dropships in here is a little much. This guy is a very talented forge gunner, it's pretty easy to see that. You guys can discuss balance all you want, but calling him a noob because he missed one shot at the end and telling him that he lacks aim and skill is just solid douchebaggery.

Dropships can still be destroyed, rather easily actually. Actually it's always a good idea to shoot a ASD even with it's hardeners up . A shot to the front or the tail will knock him about throwing him off balance ... the more off balance he is the less he's able to aim and kill you .I've been able to make a DS crash into a tower with a well placed shot . Also for Forges at least it tends to stop any regen he might have gotten while you were not shooting at him . If he's hurt enough a high prof Forger can even pound through the harder and kill him unless he retreats . No job is worth doing if you don't get paid in the end .

At the very least they should light up like the fourth of July so I can at least see who's shooting me. The hit indicators are useless as I can see blaster rounds coming from one direction and the indicators are on some random side thats not being hit.
