they are low on HP because we are using STD DSes and STD-ADV gear, you can expect a lot of starter base stats that dwarf STD DSes and the upcoming (soon) PRO DSes, also a lot more module count. I do agree with you its very costly to keep dyeing like this, I`ve found there's a PRO FG in every pub match now..... with the WP issues so I can`t gain from my role means that my last 90 mill ISK I will save to the day when my role actually isn't broken since I truly do all the team supportive stuff in pub matches. |

and here`s the "idk what I`m talking about when it comes to piloting comment" trust me dude you really don`t want us to all be posting on how bad that would be for us [pilots], it sounds fine and dandy to a trooper but to a pilot only deploying mercs means you will go bankrupt faster then anything else you (beside triage....I seem to become a target instantly...) can do with a DS. |

So maybe Pilots should have War Points for Dropping people in "X" zones... maybe mark the drop zones in the map, and pilots get 50 WP for everyone that leave the Dropship in that area...Just an after thought. 
it was a year and a half ago they said they needed a year, then in Fanfest they said 1-12 months, the fact that DSes are the biggest imbalance (yes, beyond LAVs) they should be up to date on how fast this is coming and make it fast, if they could have 3 low info comments on a 1 build issue such as the tac (yes as OP as it was, DSes have been on the waiting list longer) it truly shows that its going to be a while.
also sorry, I thought your 1st comment was saying what they should do as of now strategy wise. |

CCP can't seem to make up its mind, other than it mostly involves killing as that's where the WPs are earned.
The promise of a bomber variant backs that up.
The player base may not agree, but their opinion doesn't count because they don't hand out the rewards.
So if that's what CCP wants they are going to have to buff HP and resistance, as well as add counter measures and make handling more responsive. Front line support means you need to be able to take damage as well as dish it out. Right now it's like trying to play assault in a scout suit.
I find that crazy though because that's the HAA and for sure the LAA which has 2 flight modes, they are giving out KDR DSes if you will because they won`t be releasing WP awards soon enough. |

Bomber dropship If that's not the most ridiculous thing you've ever heard, then I'm not really sure what to tell you 
nah the "we need 1-12 months more" was... then there's the "lets announce an AA tank and no other vehicle even though pilots are steadily loosing their wallets"
the Bomber DS was a suggestion and CCP needs pilot fillers to distract them in till they fix the issue at hand. |
