I've done some testing in the Background Battelyard, and I tested the bullet dispersion of the Garlic Drone. I've destroyed about 40 turrets and shot a friend a couple of times and I can conclude that the Dtone doesn't have bullet dispersion, but it suffers from misaligned crosshairs. The shots hit somewhat lower and on the left side of the crosshair inset of the middle. This doesn't have any impact from mid to close range, but it reduces effectiveness at long range. The Garlic also suffers from a slight control problem that causes it to permanently fly up/down when standing still, further reducing accuracy. The best way to destroy a long ranged target is to attack it with a dive attack, as this will negate the control problem, and if the target is in your hit zone, the Garlic is 100% accurate. The misaligned crosshair is still an issue, as it makes aiming harder. The Parrot doesn't suffer as much as his projectile is bigger, just like the one from the GW1 Zombot Drone, making it easier to hit long range targets.
On a sidenote, I still disagree about the airstrike. The Eggsplosion only kills multiple players if they are in the middle of the airstrike, as it deals very low damage on the outside compared to the Garlic, which covers a bigger area with more devastating projectiles, at the cost of deploy time.
good info
yes i also tested it more and its true the garlic wont spread on his shots
but in reality the control is more sensitive then the parrot so it translated to me as a wider shot spread
and yes its true the point the shots are coming out of the garlic is a bit strange
overall when using the parrot i feel in control of a devastating tool and using the garlic i feel like i am fighting a broken tricycle or something trying to go straight while having sticks in the wheels
I know its not a perfect alternative but I find I have more success with the artichoke drone. the rapid corn husk bombs seem to be more reliable, the cross hair seems to be better aligned, and it has more health.
