Glad to hear you actually lost a dropship in a pub match. Hotfix working as intended.
It's beyond annoying to skill into something, dedicate time, effort and ISK into becoming decent in the craft to have it become complete garbage from one day to the other. Only an idiot would ever go lvl 5 in caldari/gallente assault dropships because the skill is a joke. 15% rof @ lvl 5 that's about as useless as dropsuit command 5. But what am I ranting about? Flying ADS takes no skill. Aiming and flying is EASY. It takes alot of skill to lock on and shoot swarms that THE GAME AIMS AND TRACKS FOR YOU.  Keep up the good work. :) the "numbers" will really be good when "they" turn to 0.

1. They do more damage.
2. They're a lot more likely to actually hit their target.
3. They hit faster.
4. They can fire further.
5. They can't be outrun or dodged.
6. They can be charged behind cover (unlike swarms requiring line of sight to lock).
Do you even ADS?

The thing is, we are probably much more balanced now. ADS pilots aren't looking for balance. But it's going to be a few days until there's enough good data on Delta to figure out where balance lies. People need to chill out.
Yes, the best way to find balance is by nerfing X and buffing Y. When both x and y directly affect each other. Thus nerfing X (bringing it to the level of y) and then buffing y(putting Y over the new level of X) creates balance. I mean only an idiot would either nerf one OR buff the other. Doing nerf and buffs together is always the best. I mean its simple math that a plus and a minus = a minus

I certainly do and by the leaderboards I've got way more experience in this game than you.

And answering a question with a question shows you have no idea wtf you're talking about.

They've been literally unable to kill anything in the game since 1.7. It's really nice CCP has made them worthwhile again.
Really theres a learning curve for swarms? It's not like the ADS where any moron can jump in and missiles auto lock on and do damage? #noanoaimnotrackingskillrequired

I mean its simple math that a plus and a minus = a minus The problem was that X and Y were so ridiculously far apart, that nerfing X and buffing Y was the only reasonable way to bring them anywhere close together. o.O Because just doing one or the other either wouldn't be strong enough or would have to be such a strong nerf or buff it would break other things.
Ridiculously far apart? Do you even play dust514?
