stick a small rail turret on your top gun, swap to it when a red ADS flys over you and pop it out of the sky with OP small rail damage...
you can tank more hits then he can so he has to GTFO or be ganked by your tank.
what im seeing is that you dont know how to fit your tanks. (doesnt require two people... you just have to understand teh concept of switching seats.)

This is the best answer so far (though I never said you needed two people... the post I was replying to brought in the 'two people' concept. Even so, you have to make a lot of compromises to your fit to get that small rail in, that will only get used vs. an ADS. And even then, it will never really kill the ADS, just scare them off, so we still await the true counter to the ADS. But still, this isn't a bad defensive idea in the meantime and I'll give it a spin.
if i can kill dropships in a methana, you can kill em with a gunnlogi

Swarms blow a dropship about and fire quickly... Forge at me and I'm gonna shoot you down before you get your 2nd or 3rd shot, not to mention I can just dodge a few shots so you have to reload, meaning I don't even have to leave the area.
Idiots who can't think crack me up : )
i kill them in a methana....
you sir are just bad, there are ready built solutions to your problem in game, and your chosing not to use them.
working as intended, not the games fault its yours.
if i can do it with an LAV... you can do it in a ******* tank.

Atiim wrote:The Problem
Dedicated (and even more-so Non-Dedicated) HAV Pilots have no effective 1:1 counter to competent Assault Dropship pilots that don't involve hiding in the redline.
Solutions
Content Creation - Introduce an 80GJ Railgun with a higher RoF, but lower damage. This will allow for HAV Pilots to get more than one hit on competent ADS Pilots, while also giving them a better counter against JLAVs.
Turret Adjustments - Increase the elevation of Missile Turrets and 80GJ Railguns, making them more effective AV weapons when facing competent pilots.
Afterburner Adjustments - Increase the cooldown time of Afterburners. This way a competent ADS Pilot may still evade the area, but s/he'll need to pay attention to it's up/downtime, and won't be able to evade constantly without worry. This will bring it in line with Fuel Injectors.
Extended Solutions
fit a small rail turret to your roof and enjoy the free points of the new flying pinatas

Dude you need to learn to read, we're argueing the same point, lol... I can kill a dropship with a tank, I can kill it with a forge & I can damn well kill it with another dropship.
damn.... im tired and have been awake for a while... im usually more on the ball then this

Put small rails on, yea gimp your tank fit
Jump into the small turret seat, yea so some bluedot can nick it aswell as gimping your tank
Jump out with a FG, yea so some bluedot can nick it
Basically all answers are use a FG so the tank isnt needed at all
if your getting ganked by a dropship your fits already gimped LOL
small rail fit > other fits, as evedenced by being able to survive a dropship :P

If a ADS is bothering you just jump out and start shoting it with a forgegun. See i just solved your problem without thinking longer then 0.1 sec about it. Certain people seriously have the IQ of some 1 who lived in the stone age. Uhm dude... Stone age people mastered fire... You're giving these guys too much credit. True but at least the people here mastered the usage of a microwave. Put stuff in, push button and wait for the PING sound. While the guys in the stone age had to search for flamable materials, hunt their food and then lit a fire to cook it. If the zombie apocalypse would happend tomorrow 95% of the people on the forum would probs just stand infront of the zombie crowd and say "oh well what im gonna do? Its all pointless".
the zombie apocalypse is already here... its just that the zombies dont know it yet
