It's just me getting owned by an officer swarm launcher from the redline whilst I'm trying to play the point 
There have been hundreds of threads like this for a year now, I'm just disappointed that in all that time there have been zero changes all because Judge pubstomped to a 40 kdr

After being hit by the first (silent) volley nothing would have prevented being destroyed

Happy flying!
i don't like using afterburners, the fit I use works pretty well when swarms either render or make noise before they hit, plus I was just hovering above the point which is a big no no (but the match I was in was a bit of stomp so I thought most reds had left the game)

I even had training sessions, doing nothing but trying to fly them only to crash, burn and die in the most pathetic ways possible. GM Scotsman, now he could do some good flyin'. Anyhow, my unofficial, personal opinion about ADS is still the same: Assault Dropships were hilariously, ridiculously annoying and resilient. Sure they were relatively rare, but every single game I played where there was 1 or 2 of these beasts, they just dominated the battlefield. Whole squads were herded by them into buildings, below bridges etc. or simply killed on spot. And when me and some others switched to AV, proto or not, our combined effort was only ever enough to drive them off for about half a minute. Then they would be back, full shields and armor, kill a couple AV guys, and just "yolo out of there like Maverick and Goose" when we managed to get another few hits in.
If anyone thinks they were balanced or good as near-invincible godlike shepherds of the skies, I have to respectfully disagree.
This pretty much sums up why i think the changes (nerf ADS buff Swarms at the same time) were ill thought out, it's been based on the experience of only being on one side

Stronger Tanks As I said, what I posted was my personal opinion. Balancing changes are not implemented on account of the personal opinion of a single CCP employee.
I'm not saying it's all your fault! Just wanted to know if your opinion had changed
