The only defense ADSs have against swarms is speed. The hp buffer is only to survive the first or second hit we rarely see or hear coming; you're not going to survive for long without an AB no matter what. Look, because I think you not understand, speed boost on missile means that you as ADS pilot will see less 'missile is flying to me' effect, and time that missile need to beat from point A to point B is shorter. It's mean that if pilot is not enough cautious he will be surprised. So if you "rarely see or hear coming" attack from AV, it should not be a problem for you, right? I'm reading what you have write and it do not have sens..
Many time I've seen ADS pilots that took first AV strike, and it was clear to everyone that if he stay here he will not survive, then he get second strike, start beeping and burn and when everyone is absolutely sure he will die and are focused one reloading he turn on AB and running with 4% of armor like nothing happen. Later on come back with full HP and kill everyone that was attacking him.

"Could we have new version of Swarms that works only on flying vehicle?", "It would be much more easy to balance AV weapon if it would be only against one or two vehicles - like equipment AV.", "So could we have Swarms that 'lock' only flying vehicles?".
Vulpes Dolosus wrote:AV should be area of denial, where everything within its range should be threatened if it's not dealt with or evaded immediately. If you want to kill a vehicle, either get it in a situation it can't escape from or use teamwork. At the end of close beta I was HAV pilot, and to 1.7 I was fighting for their survivability. I'm absolutely sure that tanks need team work to be dealt with. I was never complaining about DS EHP, always seemed to me that the only thing they need is better scanner so they know position of ground or/and aerial vehicles on battlefield, so they know where are dangers zones for them. Instead ADS some how became flying HAV and completely unnecessary..
Back to topick, I want weapon that works only on flying vehicles and it deal slightly more damage to it.
