Thats why Guristas pirate boats are drone boats. Because it reflects the use of drones by Guristas pirates.
Right?

With 200km jamming range. And the Guristas torpedos seem to have incredible range too.

because the whole point of this thread (as pointless as it is) is a complaint that missile ships dont get the same huge bonuses as gun ships even though theyre just as effective . . . (I get it, seeing a +100% bonus looks cool)
but the base argument is wrong, at frigate level 5 the Caldari Navy Hookbill gives a +100% bonus to kinetic missile damage. Guess I am confused too, when did the hookbill become a pirate ship?
Depends on your perspective. If you are Gallente then Caldari Navy is a bunch of pirates!

unfortunately it was the one pirate BS that got horribly screwed in the pirate ship changed a few years back and is now relegated to a practically useless pve tanker... IIRC the old rattler was just a phoon with hybrids and missiles instead of ACs and missiles, what made it such a dps rapetrain? used to have 7, possibly 8?, damage bonused torp slots. out DPSed a navy raven by a decent amount. 7 bonused slots would put it on par with a CNR, not above it. But that said I'm fairly certain it had 6 missile slots and some turret slots (and a hybrid turret damage bonus) I know for a fact it did not have 8, as the only ship in the game with that many was (is?) the alliance tourney prize raven from ages ago.
add in a full flight of sentry drones and enough lows for impressive amounts of damage mods.
