Now I got your attention,
Logistic drop ships.
I actually had one repping my madrugar last night, the rep is incredible, of course though,
He got 1 shot and slammed into the ground, due to impact not health reasons,
What's the range on these suckers? Anyone been using them much?
If we could get DS's fixed, my god these could be battle turners big time as troop and tank support.
Rep the tank while dropping out troops.......such a Vitale role in this game, but hasn't ever been fixed.
Thoughts? |

I'd really like to see them change DS's,
They need a serious buff, and pg cpu.
For such a vital role it plays, which honestly if they functioned they'd be more important then any other vehicle on field.
Its funny how they just keep being neglected, even their WP's have been bugged since day 1 |

Thoughts? Was it a Eryx or Prometheus? I feel that the Gallente dropships are more sturdier than their Caldari counter parts. I also carry repair tools with me. I have noticed I get 3 - 5 seconds more to start repping my Gorgons than my Vipers which means I am able to keep them alive longer. I have been in a couple of dog fights with blasters too and the Gallente comes out on top.
Was a Prometheus, damage didn't kill him, just the push from the swarms nailed him into the ground.
I assume from what people have posted, is because he has to be so close to lock me. |

Have you seen the new dust video? DS's rep tanks.
I know they get the clone reanimation which free's up 1 slot for a repper. But the gal versions it doesn't really help |

Yes you said that already lol.
Point still remains they're under powered. A lot. |

Oh and I got rep'd by an LAV yesterday too,
Man just would love to see more of this stuff.
It really brings the eve spirit of cooperation.
How many LAV drivers you know will keep spawning and dying to swarms just to follow your tank around and rep it, kudos to him  |

Suggestions for avoiding exploitable drop WP? Otherwise what stops me dropping a friend repeatedly behind our red line, or being rewarded when people get out because I'm flying about aimlessly?
This is actually in game, however since day 1 CCP said its bugged and they'll fix it soontm.
Year later. |

I'm totally for being rewarded for carting people around but curious how they'll decide whether it's a reward-worthy drop.
I think its supposed to be like drop up links, the mobile cru is supposed to award points. |

Oh, yeah. I cut out part of the post I quoted. Martin0 Brancaleone wrote:Dropships need:
- Wp for spawning people (+25 for mobile cru)
- Wp for "dropping" people, be it an assist or a fixed amont of wp
- +100%/200% range bonus for remote armor and shield reppers
I was specifically responding to being rewarded for dropping people separately from being rewarded for spawning people. Like, if I pick someone up and drop them at an objective, I get a reward for assisting in that... but I don't know how they would prevent exploitation by picking people up and dropping them repeatedly.
Ya they actually are both in game already, just bugged.
I don't remember exactly what the bonus was, rep range and lock range needed.
And post above for the later of your post |
