I had literally the same exact thing happen to me in my shield tanked Eryx, which had 4,100 in shields and 1,000 in armor. While i was hovering above the ground (not even moving an inch letting my turret gunners shoot below at enemies) my Eryx instantaneously imploded, no fire animation, no warning, just 1 second my shields and armor is max, and the next there is a poof and everyone in my dropship instantly died, and on the kill cam it all said we committed suicide. I was about 100 feet above the ground, hovering almost completely still. I have been hit by rail guns and assault forge guns and they take about 1/4th of the shield away, not all of it and my armor too in 1 shot, that's simply not manageable by any weapon in Dust currently whether that be an installation or a hand-held weapon. |

I've been fortunate enough to not have this happen at all anymore, although posting this will more than likely jynx me, but i have gone through tons of matches in my Python at the height ceiling without exploding randomly. And looking back at Iron Wolf Sabre's posts it's so laughable that he makes those comments, because he must have no experience with dropships at all. Standard railgun installations do very, very little to dropships, and it's literally impossible, IMPOSSIBLE, for a railgun installation to aim as high as the height ceiling, no matter where you are in the map. Even low-tanked dropships (as long as they aren't milita). Even railgun tank snipers (while they do the most damage to dropships) still never take me out in only 1 shot. Any time that a proto-fitted dropship gets taken out with 1 shot it is an in-game error, because there is literally no weapon in dust's existence, even ones with damage mods, that can deal that sort of damage immediately. |

Oh believe me, it well could have been the MCC missles that rain from the sky, i have been hit about 3 times by them and it is a 1 shot kill, but that's an in-game scripted missle that's easily avoidable, this whole "1 shot 1 proto-dropship kill" thing however is never caused by another player firing at it on the ground. |
