So, the Federal Dropship...

To throw in my two pence, I found it's actually a pretty good mining ship - all those internals :)

And drifting around the roids keeping your mining laser pointed at the centre of axis spin on a fast rotating rock was really great.

Oh, and if you get attacked, you dont have to run away screaming like you do in a Type 6 or 7. The Driftship is really really tough and the hardpoints are great.

The vulnerability of the powerplant is only a worry in PvP... for PvE it's just very tough.

So what's the deal with NPC Dropships then, because they are absolute sitting ducks to a Vulture with C3 lasers?...

Seriously, I don't think I've ever had a Dropship so much as get me in it's sights, even the military class ones you find in conflict zones. Pirate dropships are just like taking candy from a baby. Pythons you need to treat with a bit of respect, but I've never been worried by a Dropship. The NPCs are clearly doing something wrong !

NPC are no worries, no matter what ship they fly.. as long you dont cross the way of a plasma acc.. The only worry are the new grouped 8/8 up NPC packs.. if 8 of them starting to fire on you, its no fun.. i had to run ^^

I know the thread is outdated, but it's not a dropship, it's a driftship. Put all B modules on, E thrusters and A distributor. Then start drifting. :)
