I plasma Canon'd a moving dropship gunner yesterday, that was pretty awesome. I'd like to tout it as skill, but it was mostly luck. |

That's surprisingly not that difficult unless the Dropship is really moving across the field. Considering that I'm a third rate sniper at best and I've done that a few times in the last week.
My goal is to head shot the driver of a moving LLAV.

I flux grenaded a hovering Caldari Dropship recently and completely stripped his shields just in time for a flight of swarms to finish it off. It's funny when they fly away because some madman on the ground starts running at them. |

Drop ship gunners are like shooting fish in a barrel... They are usually hovering or climbing altitude--they are quick and easy points.
LLAV drivers are the trick shots to get for snipers. On the move they are hard to hit, but usually wait until they hit a wall or drive out to recharge shields and hit them. :] |

I have to admit I keep trying this everytime I notice one driving by (and I'm not in immediate peril).
I've been able to do it with my pistol when they either aren't moving or are only drifting, I want to get it when they're barrelling along at full speed. |

Done it more than once with the forge gun
aim for the gunner and you are bound to hit him or the dropship |

I've done the Moving LAV once. Most cant' drive in a straight line for more than a second though... There should be driving tests before people can call those into the battle.
I do love headshotting LAV drives the MOMENT the jump into an LAV. Just line up the shot directly to the headrest... Boom. So fun. |

I make that shot all the time.
the really lucky shot is hitting the head of the driver of an lav going full speed.
I've only made that shot around 8 times. |

I've gotten LAV drivers a few times. It's hilarious because they were both from the XT-1 Accelerated missile turret on the front of my Python. |

I have a couple times, it was mostly just luck tbh unless they were sitting still.
A few days ago an lav tried to run me over and I went into to twitch defense mode or something and side stepped the lav and managed to turn fast enough to pop him in the head and watch his lav roll a few more ft and come to a stop.. it was so epic of a feeling lol |

No scoped a bunny hopper mid-air with my mlt sniper rifle at ~10m. I also killed a bunny hopping scout in mid-air with a melee attack.

Shooting blind at a null cannon with a large turret when it is being taken from across the map is always fun....but i guess that is not luck. |

Never been sniped by a player, but those unmanned enemy blaster turrets are dead eye accurate.
Ohh and I'd wager that most dedicated LAV/LLAV drivers can drive straight, its just that you are easy pickings for forge gunners and from snipers trying to pull off that one in a million shot. |

Some cool ones I've made.
1. Headshot on a dropship gunner. It was flying but landing. Pure fluke.
2. Headshot on a gunner in an LAV. Not a fluke, the guy stopped about 100 meters from me. Not really that special but anything I can do to kill or harm an LAV is good.
3. This one is amazing and one of the guys it happened to acknowledged it in one of the other threads here. I sniped a guy on a roof after he and some friends were dropped off by a dropship. Then one of his buddies jumped and I sniped him in the head on the way down. A total fluke twitch shot. The third guy also jumped and I sniped him in the head on the way down, too. A total fluke twitch shot. I have no clue why they jumped. I was amazed. Pure friggin' luck.

I always give it a go if I see a +1 or more on the dropship name. Shot a fair few out of the things, don't remember a headshot though.
Killed a guy jumping from one of the skyscraper buildings in Line Harvest the other night.
Shot him, he jumped down, shot him on the way down.  |

Headshots falling from a building or falling from mcc are good as well around the 300m mark |

I got a headshot on an Imperfect gunner in a dropship back in the closed beta tourney finals for ROFL vs. Imperfects in the first round. It was pretty sweet.
GG Imperfects. I still look back on those matches with fondness and respect. |
