Because a reddit post based off an I'm a twit post with no citation is 100% accurate.
EvE is hard. It's harder if you're stupid.

There was a reason behind the title and the body of post one being a question you know
I figured that someone else, somewhere would be able to confirm/deny/add details too.
As I said previously - not a "WAAAAA NERF THE ISHTARS", I want to see the rest of the data. I'm curious like that. |

good thing I have 3 chars with marauder V I guess?
also bombs have some weaknesses that I would guess marauders are among the best at dealing with. Although at the same time Marauders have some weaknesses that bombers are good at dealing with.
ah well, fleets come and go, I'm not really even confident how much of that is CCP balancing, and how much it is someone comes up with a reasonable counter, although sometimes it seems even after a counter is found CCP comes in with the sledge hammer anyways.
I will say sentry ishtar does seem a bit lulz, although I haven't even tried to shoot at anyone with one. I was just playing around in a few missions the other day to fix my sec status. But I can imagine flying with 100 other pilots with logi backup, and seeing how that could be hard to deal with for many setups.
I'll join the chorus asking CCP, don't take my fancy names away from me!

Damping is Very practical in the real world, just maybe not Ishtars since they can simply assign drones. The ability to assign drones is also one of the reasons they are so dangerous since it makes it much easier for DPS to be switched from primary to primary. |

Sorry I should have been clearer - I was speaking of drone boats. Damps>>>all otherwise. |

Damp their logi and force them to close and get blapped and/or blap the Ishtars while they are without reps.

what I would like to see is what percentage of all damage done in the game is from drones.
advantages of drones vs guns is insane
drone pros - no grid - no CPU - no cap - no ammo - no slots - interchangeable-- seriously what If a vaga could have a full rack of 200, 425 and 800mm ACs - damage selectability - virtually EWAR Immune - generally better projection - generally better DPS - generally better application (virtually un-mitigatable damage) - Opens up highs for a second weapon system, RRs, nuets, smarties or what have you
- you don't have to mind your speed, vector, range, and sig; target speed, vector, range, and sig. instead a huge Sphere of "yes these drones will hit you"
drone cons - can be shot... most drones get a drone HP buff - no overheat - god awful UI
gun pros - insta-hit.... but sentuiries do this as well - overheat - good UI
gun cons - fully avoidable damage - range sensitive - target velocity sensitive - shooters velocity sensitive - **** it pretty much all the pros for drones in reverse
but as far as the Ishtar goes drones are a bit OP, the Ishtar is OP among drone boats. on top off all the advantages of drones I don't think there is a single cruiser capable of it's DPS
hell I don't think there are BCs capable of doing the damage it dose beyond 70km, I know the myrm can't because it's down 25mb/s and the extra bonuses. |

I don't have a photographic memory and can't remember the other ships and percentages that were on that slide. |
