Or you could stop complaining that AV can hit you, cos ya know, it's meant to. Swarms can only hurt vehicles, if you fit 2 hardeners (not sure if it's limited to one, so bare with me) you can survive quite a bit of punishment. Dropships do need a fitting room buff and ads need an extra slot. Nerfing swarms before looking at dropships is not the answer. |

And trust me, av is OP against ads, not so much against ds, but they still have a hard time.
So buff them them, don't need swarms.

And trust me, av is OP against ads, not so much against ds, but they still have a hard time. So buff them them, don't nerf swarms. That will make tanks OP. Again, the problem lies with the fact that dropships have no cover and can BARELY escape swarms. Look. reducing speed will be fine. Most tankers are back to the madrugar which is slow. Swarms will always catch up to land vehicles. If swarms are faster than tanks and lavs, they are ok. The vehicles can take cover. DROPSHIPS don't have cover, so they can't escape a volley of missiles which are faster than them. Afterburners barely help.
How would buffing dropships make tanks OP? the problem dropships have is fitting room, that is it. Also if you fit a dropship correctly it will survive 3 swarms shots and be able to escape. |
