Gallente are big drone users, and we generally have to get in close to our prey to kill it. I've got close to 5 mil sp in drones, yet I can't use them in a gatecamp without losing them, and let me tell you, t2 Ogres get expensive after a while.
Anyway, end-of-whine.

sentry drones? I got sick of ogres not reaching target before the rest of the gang killed it, so I swapped them for sentries and sometimes I even get top damage on the killmails now.

The discothron is pretty awesome. \/
I'd like to be able to camp at 93k from gate with my sentries out, though, you know what I mean? Or berserkers to the rescue at 2 k.
I know this is a pointless thread. But hey, how about if the sentry guns get defender missiles to balance it out?

The solution to your problem is to make sure your gunnery is at least respectable and use the astarte as your camp ship. Pack 5 EC-600 to GTFO if needed. --

if your not wasting t2's on crap targets, you make the money back easy. but to each their own, i find it much more fun to solo bs's in a drone ship while under guns. Makes me feel ubarr :P

Gallente has in fact, some of the best ships for gatecamping with sentries about.

Stop trying to use the wrong tool for the job, gallente use Drones and Blasters, which aren't ideal for gatecamping, so stop using them and get your ass onto something else. The point of specialization is to become good at one thing, not everything, if you want to do something, train the skills to do it with the proper tool. ------

Edited by: Azirapheal on 04/08/2007 11:48:31 Funny Really, during my time at klepto my two favourite ships for smacking things on gates were the brutix and the harbinger
brutix had less of a meaty tank, but t2 med rails made very fast work of pods shuttles, cruisers etc.
although 1600mm plate dual MAR2's and RCU's were required, even in a large camp to help it survive
dont think i ever used drones

You dont use drones to attack, you use drones to keep sentries busy. Drop craploads of acolytes when you engage.

disagree with op.
drones are pretty useless at gate camping. so what?
i fly galente pretty exclusively. but when you choose a favorite race, you have to give up on so many things.
live with it mate. sorry.

Anyway, end-of-whine.
1 - Berserkers II are generally better and faster - cheaper too. 2 - You could use t1 drones. 3 - Gallente do actually use guns. They have turrets on their BS's. :)

Damn good thing, for gallente gatecampers, that there is a little thing called "the gun". This thing can be either a long ranged rail or a short range blaster with an ability to rain death. -------------------------------------- ---"What's in your wallet?"--- "There are two kinds of respect, fear and admiration....

How about launching them when there is a target, and scoop then when he's dead.
Maby you lose 1 or 2 drones at a price of 700k isk. So are those using ammo.
Gallente has the ability to use more then just drones, your just to blind to see the wide options of your racial choise.

I'm not saying that CCP should up our damage or anything, I just want to be able to harness my full potentiality at a low sec gate without sentry guns popping my drones.
Yeah guys, I know we have guns, that's why I have 4.5 mil sp in gunnery, but with half our damage getting taken away by the sentries, I think there ought to be a balance... like have the sentries fire defenders as well, or just stop shooting drones.
Anyway, continue flaming, didn't mean to interrupt.

What?
Drokes actually go berserk and aggro your enemies when you smartbomb them. Logic dictates they should attack you , but for some reason it makes them remember there are people shooting you. Kind of like in Dungeon Keeper when you slap your minions silly

Some people even have problems sentry tanking in BC and up. Why on earth would a drone be able to sentry tank! When we are to it, lets make it so that frigs/intys/cruisers can sentry tank as well!

We tank just fine, STOP WHINING. So we cant use our drone bays, on a gatecamp there are usually ALOT of you and ALITTLE of them so you can lose the 200 or so DPS. I am a Gallente pilot, just have caldari attributes and i tank sentrys all day every day whether in a gang of one person or 20, albiet easier in the gang of 20. You know what the solution is? Lots of SP in Mechanic and half decent investment in T2 mods. Stop whining. The only thing i wish Gallente had was better cap regen so i didnt have to use so many damn cap booster 800's, use about 1 every 10 minutes or so, rather not worry about em at all TBFH.

How about giving sentry guns tracking? As much as I like the anti-pirate guns being the only guns ingame that have infinite tracking and sig resolution, if they were brought inline with the other guns small ships and light drones might actually become viable in gate camps.
But I guess it's ok as it is too. Frigates, interceptors, AFs, half the EWar ships, all drones, destroyers, interdictors being completely unusable at low sec gatecamps. Funny how so much of the new content seems directed at 0.0 players only.

You know I would love Caldari to be good in small-gang PVP too, but neither of us are getting what we want because if Gallente or Caldari could do everything then everyone would be Gallente, or Caldari.
