it actually deals some pretty nice damage to other dropships if I can actually hit the things. and I got two kills.(redline railgun one-shotted me, in my last moments of flight, steered it into wiping a rooftop and crushing two poor pricks to death before bailing out)
on paper: these things should be absolute monsters, with DPS that approaches HMG levels(21 shots per second, 54.4 damage each shot at proto with maxed skills equaling 1143.45 DPS). in practice: thing handles like a drunk walrus and the auto-level is not doing it any favors. had to switch to first person view to shoot at derpship.
EDIT: ADV blaster, no SP in galente ADS

Yes, in theory a blaster incubus should be like this.
In practice, it's very underwhelming.

LOL the first time Mike was stationary hovering my first though was, "your chopper has no armor so keep moving."

Did the same thing with my Python last night. Thought it would be worth the kittens & giggles. It was worth it; didn't kill anything but it was great fun strafing infantry & making them run like chickens with their heads cut off. Good times, but I'll stick with missiles.

On a maxed Incubus its awesomeness is only held back by the lack of splash damage. Give it even the slightest bit and it might actually be useful. It's a shame blasters are not on par with missiles from the air.
Your game f'ing sucks, but I'll still play it.... damn you!

eh, I just hope the jets get a bonus to the RoF for blasters. imagine strafing runs/ dogfights with those things basically being miniguns.
Or frying a tank with successive runs(over 1k DPS, so unless jets are painfully slow, you'll need more than one pass. and if they are then )

Even with 50% bonus ROF it's ridiculously hard to hit infantry with the tiny dot that blends into the hull of the incubus. Even when you get it good and stable. I'd assume jets would be much faster so it would be even harder to stay on target. Maybe CCP wouldn't screw jets aim point as much as they do the Incubus but knowing them it's not likely.

I don't believe it, unless something changed this build.
Last build, I tried out blaster LAVs- they can't actually hurt other vehicles because the damage-per-sh0t isn't high enough to cancel out the shield regen; shields, even on LAVs, regen faster than you can damage them.
I'm from the weird side of the internet

I did sideswipe him off a building then shot at him as he flew away, he flew in nice, straight lines.
Though, a tank, an installation, and some swarms jacked my kill. I chewed through his shiedls(caldari, so he was basically toast at that point) So much crap converged on him that I didn't even get an assist! Did get damage though.

Ah, blaster ADS.
Or as it should be called: the lawnmower
Since you can't take it more than an inch off the ground if you want to keep your range.
No.

Must have been pretty close to the redline eh?
Now I'm not saying I'm a badass, but once I killed a guy in militia gear. We were both wearing it but still.

yup. the one dom map with a city socket on one side and a lab/reactor thing. on the other, with the objective on the bridge in the middle, started on the lab/reactor side, the building I improvised some squishing on was not even 100 meters from their redline.
