I wrote ideas at another topic, but i try to the attention of the Council of Stellar Management.
Thread summary :
I think CCP forgot the drone user ships and drones abilities.
They not upgraded long time ago, their abilities.
I think they need a little revision.
What i'm think ?
1st
All weapon systems have lot of implants, like damage modifier, attrib modifiers and more, but drones have not.
CCP should be made implants. 1%,3%,5% damage, control range, optimal and another implants.
2nd
No damage rigs for drones except sentry drones.
We need that's, like other weapon system users.
Should be made, bandwith rigs and drone cargo modifier rigs too.
3rd
Many drone group not have just large drones, like sentrys, weber drones. Need small or medium class for them.
Some ship need revision too, like Navy Vexor.
Have 100 bandwith but the drone cargo same like in Vexor.
Need a little upgrade +25m3 to Navy vexor for reserve drones.
Suggestions :
Drones ability implants:
1%,3%,5% bonus to > drone tracking speed, drone speed, drone optimal, drone damage, drone control range, drone HP bonus
Logistic drone implants:
1%,3%,5% drones logistic ability changes > drone shield/armor repair amount bonus
Ew drone implants:
1%,3%,5% drone neutraliser amount bonus, drone web range bonus, drone target painter sig radius bonus
Why need changes :
Gunship damage output grew up, but droneships damage output weakened + med drones tracking abilies worse.
Let see gunships how growing their damage output, when they get implants,rigs,overheat.
Let see a Megathron damage output with 7 neutron blaster + faction ammo and 2 magfieldstab > ~868DPS
With one damage rig and 2x5% damage implant (ZGL 1000 + CX2) ~957DPS without drones
Damage output with overheat + one damage rig + 2x5% damage implant > ~1100DPS
You got 232 plus DPS for guns. (increased over 23% damage)
What got the domi ? Nothing. Oh yes you can use rigs and implants for crap guns and you will get +35dps.
I don't understand, why it is not possible to make it to drones ship users implants and rigs.
They cant use drones overheat. No problem.
They cant use rigs + implants. That's problem.
Why i said ?
Try to calculate modified damage output when their pilots could be using rig and 1x5% damage implants.
Dominix have now 475dps with drones
With one 5% rig damage and 5% could be increasing their damage output with 10 percent > plus 47,5 DPS to 475 = 522DPS
This is big difference ? I think not, but Megathron damage changes was big enough compared to Dominix.
So i say it, this rigs and drones implants, would not change the old damage too much.
When a gunships use drone implants , the drone damage output growing up not too much:
light drones damage increase in gunship +3.5 dps
med droness damage increase in gunship +7 dps
heavy drones damage increase in gunship +12dps
But droneships could be hit on target a littlebit better.
It would be his result, that between the two ship classes (gunship and droneships) a little bit would equalise the damage difference.

And one more thing. The rigs and implants should divided into different groups. So one implant is giving only bonuses to one class of drones (Light, Medium, Heavy, Sentry, Fighter) This means a hell of a new implants and rigs. So CCP has to put a lot of work into this i guess. And im not sure they want to.. Hopefully they won't ignore this issue.

I've been supporting threads like this for a year now. One made it to CCP, if I recall, but I don't think anything has happened with it, and it was a narrow proposal anyways. Yes, drones should be treated like a real weapon class and not a slightly-supported add-on.

Agreed,but you forgot the miners little helpers, the mining drones.It would be good to use medium and the heavy mining drones.

I agree, more drone items would be handy.
What about a high-slot drone item that would boost drone damage output? Carrier have one, in that they can use an extra fighter, but for everything smaller, the only high slot items for boosting dps on a drone ship are guns, and those generally aren't all that useful.
Having a rig that gives +25 bandwidth and drone bay might be nice too....
