I am happy to say there is an improvment to the Incubus rail turret, that progresses along the tiers.
My level 3 incubus improved from 7 shots before overheat yesterday to 9 shots today, and 12 shots before overheat gunning for a friend who is a proto pilot (3 + 5).
Yes, I understand respecs will be optioinal, and yes SP will become more easily accessable post 1.9, still i feel like there is more tweaking to be done in regards to ROF buffs for the dropship. I still would recomend against any pilot speccing into the skill, and the Python still needs work. An increase to 5% per level is worth trying out, and any infantry that feels aggreived can rather easily spec into proto swarms.
The other changes to the weapons worked very well, the scrambler rifle is much more dangerous before overheating.
I did not notice any difference to the bolt pistol.
Rail rifles i cant judge too much, some on the forums say its hipfire is horrible, personnally i always aim down sights. IMO Bad hipfire for a long range weapon should be considered a good thing, now we have the gallente/minmatar specialised in CQC, contrary to the caldari/amarr specialised in long distance combat.
Native Armor reps is a great move. Worked beautifully.
I think of myself as a pretty harsh critic, most of my opions regarding ADS and Swarms have not changed. Yet, credit where credit is due, these are good steps in the right direction.

so i guess i'm not the only one testing rails. another finding worth mentioning is they hit much harder than i remember. were they recently given a damage buff?
and i also have to agree with tesfa on this, ROF needs a buff. in one of my field tests, i faced a rep maddy. he recovered too quickly for my rail to be effective

Maybe you should have read the changes to the ADS, you know in the hotfix delta notes, where they were expressed...

I'm thinking its more to do with getting more shots off. As in pre-balance, i would fire in 3 round bursts just to keep the heat cost down and keep up more sutained barrage. Now I use 5 round bursts, doesn't sound like much but its about 900 HP more of damage output in between firing pulses. That being said, there such a long time in between burss its very difficult to get more than half of them to land.
I do get the feeling that level 5 incubus is going to be in a much better state, if it was a 5x skill, i might have considered investing into it. Certainly not for an 8x skill.

oh it's great to have you around, captain obvious. i would never have thought of looking at notes that are no longer in this section of the forums.

CCP Rattati said that he's not a fan of fast-firing 20GJ Rails, so your best be would be a damage buff.
