I believe dropships need a serious buff. I don't use them myself but iv noticed that it usually takes 1-2 shots with my forge to take out the logistics dropships, which is a bit of a joke tbh. Give dropships more hp, more pg and cpu or some counter measure to forge guns. Give me a challenge for Gods sake.

And while you're at it, fix this list of bugs that only keeps growing. It's ruining DS for pilots and gunners.

The dropships of old were way more fun to go up against, now its rare sight to see a good dropship pilot on the field and even then you don't see them lasting too long. |

When the AV guys are complaining about vehicles being too easy to kill, you know something us wrong. |

It's probably because while DS are so bug-ridden and crappy, AV only sees them once in a blue moon. Then there's no excitement or challenge in killing it.
If you had a character who could 1 shot every infantry it looked at, the game would be pretty boring to you and games with no challenge are no fun.
Buff DS, increase variety in games, increase number of DS which, will give dedicated AV a purpose, and making them slightly harder to kill also lets the skilled AV stand out from joe-shmoe.

drop ships can stay alive easy....but they ALWAYS have to be on the move and have to run every 10 seconds in the right mach leaving them useless. |

The most expensive one you could make is just as easy to kill.
After burner does not increase HP, it decreases it vs PG/CPU hit and missing a high slot. But you can put an AB on a 'cheap' DS and it till die dodge a couple hits. But then die like the rest.

I know, I just generalised so the statement was correct and wide ranging, and would stay correct no matter what CCP did to vehicles. |

Shot down 3 logistics dropships in one round. I know the pilot too, skilled and well fit. 3 shots from an Advanced Large Rail. ForgeGuns do more damage so I imagine it's even less from one of those.

This is what you read, and if this had been what he wrote, you'd be spot on another good point. lol |

It's 2 from FG.
Anyone who runs AV with DS pilot friends will have the same story as you. Take your Corps best trained, well fitted pilot. Play against him as FG. It'll be a joke. |

Not to mention that dropships in the air can be fired upon by multiple av users. They dont even have to be together to effectively take a dropship out since the range on swarms and forges are so long. And the dropship is EXTREMELY visible to everyone on the battlefield. |
