3 times my proto-fit Incubus has been 2 shotted by swarms (well once I was flying someone elses, but that was pre-Delta) and I've just assumed I missed something.
But today I watched the guy who shot me, I did a simple fly by and took out the roof spawn before heading behind a tower. The first shot fired and took down my shields, but my armour was full before the 2nd lot came around the tower and hit dropping my armour from full to 0. I stayed in the ship to see it was a CBR7 whatever fired from a Sentinel (Not even a fecking commando... Skraaaaab, lol.)
I'm assuming this is because of the weak spot, they did appear to bend round to the back end of the ship (even though I'd turned to face them.) This would seem to explain those wtf moments when I have the hardener up and yet take more damage than the same swarmer who just shot me without the hardener.
Do you know what their proficiency was on their swarms .?. and if they were using a sentinel , how many damage mods were fitted ( sure they were proto ? ) or if there was a hidden forge gunner or PC in the area coupled with a hidden swarm ?
There probably were some unseen and unknown factors in what happened to you .
Delta should come with a SP or infantry SP refund so that a campaign for one is not needed .

Also, why would someone put a Swarm Launcher on a Sentinel? That's just dumb >.<
Not really , you have the resistance bonuses in case of taking oncoming fire or if your breached and with the CPU / PG , you could stack pro damage mods , it's actually smart but Commandos are more effective if it's a Min or Cal .

You already have to do that as with moving targets and with their small window with range , anything else would hinder the process .
Contrary to how you put it and how many think , it's not a point and shoot weapon .
Range kills the weapon and objects move out of range in an instant , people just need to be more aware and stop trying to eat damage , you just don't know a persons set up or how much they have invested .
