that is the point. He was saying the python seems less able to survive, but it may be just as capable or more so, than any other craft given a balanced battlefield but we can't tell because of rail tanks atm.

With rails breaking the game at the moment the incubus is a safer choice.

Being a dedicated forge gunner, I take out all dropships with almost absolute ease 2 shots mostly 3 for the Incubii... ALL dropshits need a health buff

Just letting you see from a different view, not just from Rail Tankers..

With the Caldari Heavy's set to be released (4 high slots) I could only imagine the despair of the Dropship pilot

As I said before, no health buff is needed. Dropships are fine IF you use them as a dropship.

Another thing to do is increase the speed and agility of milita and standard dropships to improve survivability of them.

If we buff the hp of dropships we will soon have flying tanks which the dropship never was or never should be.

Stupid dust community in general, everyone wants recon dropships, bomber dropships, logistics dropships, stealth dropships , transport dropships, supersonic dropships, fighter dropships, rainbow coloured dropship...

Clarification: dropships are a middle aircraft frame vehicle. THIS DOES NOT MEAN IT IS THE ONLY AERIAL HULL CCP WILL USE FOR MIDDLE CLASS AERIAL VEHICLE. The dropship just happens to be classed as a medium aircraft, with it being a transport ship. Thats it that is all the dropship will ever do or should do while laying down fire support. The assault dropship is just a light offensive vehicle designed to kill stray targets not anti-armour or anti-air.

The assault dropship is just a light offensive vehicle designed to kill stray targets not anti-armour or anti-air. The thing is you already can fit dropships for a variety of roles. I have my dedicated transport, my recon ship, my assault ship, and my speedy domination attack the point first dropship. Assaults have a tougher time of it because you guys like to move around,and thus more exposed to AA. Me i like getting in dropping troops and getting troops out, getting my gunner some kills, providing a distraction, or making lots of recon passes (dual scanners no one is safe) for others to kill. And though i have an incubus, my preferred ship has always been my trusty gorgon. I'm proud to be one of the very few my CEO and corp will trust for arial transport in PCs, where matches can be won or lost in the time it takes to get to the points. So no, i don't think any pilots really wants or even need an HP buff. What pilots need, along with the rest of the dust community is the relase of all of the planned racial vehicles/dropsuits/weapons, so then we can finaly take balancing seriusly. Other wise it will be an endless buff nerf culture everytime something new is introduced or improved upon. Redline for Thee, but no Redline for Me.
