I was just thinking about the carriers and I thought I could be cool to have a "micro" carrier that would not be a capital sized and only use scout drones or other small variants. . . The difference over the drone carrier destroyers would be that they could use 10 scout drones based on skill like a carrier and then be able to equip small drone modules to get up to 15 scout drones. It might have more hit points like a cruiser. . . and function just like a carrier. . . just on a smaller level. . .
Of course make a bigger version that would use the medium sized drones a "small" carrier and then one that would use the large drones a "sub" carrier. . .
This would be for those of us that want the joy of carriers to take on mission running, ratting, or something we don't mind getting blown up in. . .
Good idea, bad idea? |

We were used to have max. 10 drones on every droneship. Because of serverload it was reduced to 5 with a 100% bonus.
So my guess is its a bad idea. Also we allready have a dominix and so on. My true stories |

I would like to see say a smaller carrier say an Light Carrier.
Size and handling similar to an Orca, 200-250k EHP, 500mil price tag, capital rigs, fits cheaper (20mil) Small Control Units to a maximum of 10 Drones, 5% Damage bonus to racial drone dmg (pending fix) and a second bonus to speed or tracking or whatever per race, too big to fit in missions, about 1000 Drone bay + or - each.
An all Drone ship unlike the hybrid type Battleships could be fun. Big slow (no MWD speed), harder to kill, easier to catch with all destructible damage. I would enjoy an Orca sized racial Escort Carrier.
Example
Freyr:
Minmatar Lightt Carrier Skill Bonuses: +5% bonus to Minmatar Drone Damage +5% bonus to Minmatar Drone Speed Role Bonus: -90% Grid Cost for Micro Drone control Unit
Slot layout: 5H, 6M, 5L; 0 turrets , 0 launchers Fittings: 10000 PWG, 750 CPU Defense (shields / armor / hull) : 35000 / 30000 / 32500 Capacitor (amount / recharge rate / cap per second) : 8000 / 1500s / 5 Mobility (max velocity / agility / mass / align time): 70 / .136 / 250000000 / 30s Drones (bandwidth / bay): 250 / 950 Targeting (max targeting range / Scan Resolution / Max Locked targets): 80km / 80 / 8 Sensor strength: 28 Ladar Sensor Strength Signature radius: 1000
I would enjoy such a ship a lot in addition to my Blaster Dominix. |

Isn't this what Minmatar, and Amar Battleships are for? Former forum cheerleader CCP, now just a hopeful small portion of the community. |

Server now handles drones on the same target as a single entity. So unless your drones are on more than 5 different targets at the same time, there's no more load than it is now. Standings Improvement Service https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=19454 |

You haven't explained why this is meaningfully different than existing drone carriers other than MOAR DRONES. |

Thanks! :D I am not the only thinking about this. . . like I said. . . a really small carrier that just does scout sized drones would be cool :D |

The point is that they would have no guns and be like mini carriers. . . and the biggest part would indeed be more drones, lol. . . |

And the Navy Dominix, Sin, Proteus / Legion Drone Subsystems and the Rorqual counting its bonus. Couple more in special editions and the Velator kinda.
