Don't know that, had a python yesterday hovering around the biomass mushroom with impunity, he tanked 2 clips of a maxed wiyrkomy from a lv5 minmando with 2 kplx damage mods. And I was not the only AV shooting at him... Don't know his fit, but there seems to be a way to make the Python work... He flew away casually in the end... |

Nope, it was a pub, and some scrub put links on the mushroom, which lead to half the team spawning there. We obviously lost. Near the end I spawned there as well, and tried to at least get the derpship, but no such luck! That thing was tough as a tank. |

Should have asked for his fit, It was definitely super hardened...

I'm sorry, the current forum narrative is "vehicles are underpowered victims" and "EZmode AV wins 100% of the time" Please re-word your posts so that the ADS pilot sounds disadvantaged by your actions in some way
Yeah, he was at a disadvantage, because he couldn't strafe as fast as I was dancing around his XT missiles. Otherwise I think he might have wanted to enjoy the view a little longer, but he had to leave casually short before his hardener went down.
Seriously, that Python was maxed, and he had a very good fit. He got a hit before the hardener went up, but that was no proto AV. As soon as the hardener (or two) where up, he was invincible. He may have had a bad day, if the PLC guy had hit him, but no such luck... |

Jepp, speedy flybys for a while, and then towards the end, you where just circlestrafing and defo tanked two full clips from a absolutely MAXED minmando. I can't shoot any faster than I did, and I have everything maxed (reload obviosly as well).
Congrats, for that fit, would you mind to share, maybe in a mail?
This is definitely no single event, I always have said, that there are Python fits/pilots in the game, that do not need to be to concerned even with maxed swarms. As long as they don't get jumped by a maxed swarm without warning, they have no probs. |

No, as I said, we were all on that roof at this point. They stomped us pretty bad. If there had been a PLC guy with some aim, we might have given him some headaches, but as it was, he defo tanked two full clips in the shortest time possible (shooting wise). I had no obstructions so lockon was instantly, and I usually release the swarms short before lockon gets signaled. |

Well, my theory is, that if you put on enough hardeners, AV doesn't do enough damage to interrupt the regen...
And yes I won't spread the details of your fit bro. |

And yes I won't spread the details of your fit bro. Well you can fit up to three, and a three hardener fit means non proto hardeners, and base HP, soo...
The only thing I can say though, that the only times I was getting wasted by Derpships, it was Pythons that didn't take any considerable damage from me. And believe me, I have spoiled the fun for a lot of derpships.
Incubi went down fast before the patch, usually one clip. Pythons usually survived longer, but got wasted eventually. But there are a select few, who seem to run mostly hardners, which can survive without breaking a sweat. And if they hit me with XTs, they will get me fast, since I only have damage and regen on my minmandos.
These fits might not work for everybody, but in the right hands, they are exactly what the Rat wanted, waves of opportunity. And if you have your vehicle upgrades maxed, the cooldowns won't take very long...

Well, I just tried the fit, I had to put a complex CPU upgrade on and only an advanced launcher, but it works. As long as the hardeners are up, you basically are invincible.
This is actually a good enough incentive to get the module skills up for my derpships... right now, my duration and cooldown skill is only lv2 and fitting also at 2, so much room for improvement. |
