I can tell that them swarms were near you when you went around that building, so please stop with the crap. I'm also sick of hearing that swarms take no skill as well, you try going around using just a sidearm the entire match and watch what happens when someone with a RR or CR sees you, you'll be barely able to fight back. Also, stop using the isk argument. The thing you are flying is essentially a second skin with far more HP and fire power. It should cost more than a dropsuit. |

Just another thread from a vehicle player complaining that he can't run around totally invincible and shoot fish in a barrel. "Swarms take no skill" "Swarms take no skill" Shooting defenseless infantry tho... yeah that is just chock full of honorable game play. Buy a PS4 and go away...  Swarms take no skill, I'd rather be killed by a mans weapon like a FG or a PLC.
No, it doesn't take skill to fire a weapon. It takes skill not to get killed all the time cos you only have a sidearm for protection.

It takes skill not to get killed all the time cos you only have a sidearm for protection. Just wish to point out that you have 150m worth of lock range to play with. While I understand its not always optimal to engage from the extremity of that range that's a pretty large area to work with, couple that with a Kinetic Catalyser and some hard cover and you are an extremely difficult target to dislodge from enemy tankers and usually in a prime position to get a head start on an aggressive infantryman.
There is rarely an opportunity for any swarmer to engage any vehicle effectively at that range. If I put 2 kincats on I have no HP to take a hit never mind the fitting room needed to fit 3 DMG mods and 2 kincats + swarms is mad. 68PG to fit that leaving only 27-28 pg on my gal assault, I still need to fit 3 low slots, a sidearm and nades. |

It takes skill not to get killed all the time cos you only have a sidearm for protection. I have some suits in which I use side arms only, not even a challenge, have you seen what a BP can do to any and all suits? I make heavies **** themselves with it, Ion pistol really good as well, SMG's have always been good, magsecs are under used but still good, flay locks are also good, scramblers are the only ones where I would say ok skills.(Not counting NK)... Or get a commando as it seems thats what alot of swarm users are going for. Sad thing is I have swarms at level prof 1, won't use it because its like AV on easy mode. Skill weapons like PLC and forge do damage to infantry as well Edit: Also just had a match where I was in my incubus. Can confirm swarms do go around buildings, wish I had recording equipment though...
There is a huge difference in only having one weapon that can hurt infantry, saying having fits with 2 sidearms that work well is irrelevant, you have a back up that can still deal damage whilst not having to sacrifice hp or fitting room because you dont have to fit damage mods and a light weapon that requires more pg and cpu and only hurts vehicles.

Would love to see Mr Dischordant Souls' point of view.
There were two swarmers. 2 volleys hit you far too quickly for that to have been one guy. Plus he only dealt 2500 damage. Which wouldn't have killed you. |
