ab nerf just means pilot has to change his assault pattern, we now either choose to wait it out for ab to come back online or decide to risk it while it's cooling down. ab cd was op from the beginning. there was no reason to even use anything higher than a basic ab before the nerf. the prenerf cool down allowed pilot to virtually after burn continuosly, the cooldown was almost not even there.

It's still overpowered, depending how you measure it, it's just... less OP now than it was before. Plenty of ADS players have stated otherwise, but they're also heavily biased, and the reality is, they're just closer to the level of play others experience now. I know we aren't supposed to swear, but that statement is bullshit. Do you actually listen to the community? I've listened to non pilots that say that the ADS nerf was a bit too much. ADS could always be handled with decent AV. Always. I sometimes fly dropships and this nerf was kind of ridiculous. Now they are wanting to change the whole ADS meta by changing the Python and Incubus bonuses? Where do they get off on that?
because the bonus currently is BS.. after nerf i dont need +15 ROF for 3 million SP.. this is good news.

On top of taking away active reps in 1.7 and the armor and shield hardener nerf and the armor rep nerf. I'm sorry, but when I did fly ADS, I stopped when the AB nerf hit, not to mention the HUUUUUUGE nerf to rate of fire for Pythons.
why did you need a high ROF for a missile that 1-3 shots ppl?

this build is still easier than when large rail range wasn't yet nerfed a few months back.. sorry for those pilots who just hit AB and flew straight to cieling.. maybe they consider a different tactic now.. there's other ways to take evasive from AV than just face rolling the DS3.

Flying a dropship back then was way easier than now, in my opinion. AV wasn't ridiculously OP or too weak. In face, back in the beta, that was the best AV and vehichles have been balanced, in my opinion. Either way, I don't drive vehicles on this character and the character that does, doesn't anymore because they are killed too easily. When I came back, I was floored when a forge gun hit me even at the flight ceiling. I was overly surprised when swarms caught up to me and even almost killed me.
because they have basically nerfed the high flying pilot (which was about 90% of the pilot community). you have to fly contour and have good prediction of where/when AV will come from. yea you will still be shot down it happens. but most AV expects you to AB to flight cieling and they predict your motion, when you do the opposite and dive low instead of ascend to evade it throws them off.

When you fly low, you have the chance of getting pushed into buildings. Flying high prevents that and caused you to keep your 800k ISK dropship. They didn't like it becaus epeople cried about the tactic and they nerfed it to force people to stop doing it. The game has gone a far way away from the freedom they had initially intended. It's really sad. This game had the potential to beat Battlefield, if only the devs actually listened to the community instead of makign changes they thought would be good for the game.
the high flying evade was a total face roll.. the collision you speak about can happen but if you fly a repping gal then you usually shrug off collisions but thats speaking in absolute to say you will collide every time you do a low evade. yea it's possible but not garunteed to happen after it becomes routine manuver.
