I fly a grimness with Two heavy reps, dual PG enhanchers and dual scans. No burners, no armor plates, no hardeners;.I like to constantly light up the entire map for my squad, geting 300 or more war points off of intel kill assist. It still takes three shots from a forge gun to shoot me down sure, but its only an issue with multple forge gunners. I can dance around a single forge gun easy enough.
I'm not shooting back by the way, which means the forge gunner is going to continue letting off rounds untill he runs out, my squad kills him, or I leave the area. Unlike assault pilots who can.
So an proto'd out ADS with XT missiles should have no reall issue with three shots from a forge gun. Especially considering Foxtrots playstyle, a Python can recharge shields and flee before the second forge round recharges. You can make a pass and let off 3 XT missile rounds that will surely kill any suit before he can fire single round shot at you.
Right now its an issue to tackle multiple forge guns, as it should be. Coordinated AV should kill any vehicle, i don't give a flying f*** how much SP you dumped into it.

I mean, why bother fly a Myron with 3000+ shields if it still can get shot down by one guy with one forge gun, or one guy with a swarm launcher? It's too slow to get away yet its shields still can get dwindled down to zero in one clip by each handheld weapon! outrageous.
Now i'm starting to wonder if your trying to farm likes or troll AV guys, yet its pilots who are rejecting the concept that dropships are vulnerable to a single forge gunner. Losing a ship to single Swarm launcher is rediculous, and already covered by Judge Rhadamanthus in one of his videos.
You want more PG and CPU for dropships, i'll take it. I want my ships to be better. I want to have more varied fits rather than just Armor or shield modules.
To say its because of the current state of AV is illogical at best. Lest we forget Single player AV was so ineffective post 1.7 that CCP handed out WP for damaging vehicles who more often than not get away.
