Sabahl	Posted - 2005.02.09 08:11:00 - [1] This may be a bit early as I haven't had a chance to do extensive testing but out of the first 5 missions I tried yesterday, three of them were drone missions. This is all well and good if you like minerals but, timewise, it's extremely annoying. The drone missions give a quarter of the LPs of the other angel faction missions which is slowing me down something awful! I'll post up more info if it appears that the Angels are getting too many drone missions, but for the moment I think this should go ona watch list.

Phantom II	Posted - 2005.02.09 10:42:00 - [3] Agreed they are very time demanding and the they dont even have a bounty. They need to have bountys. ----------------------- Want to sell: Tracking Link II Dual 425mm AutoCannon II Dual 650mm Repeating Artillery II 1200mm Artillery Cannon II 1400mm Howitzer Artillery II

Haoia	Posted - 2005.02.09 15:45:00 - [5] I like drones, the minerals they drop are very nice. I just collect them them recycle when I have a large supply. Makes a nice bit of isk. Though I would get bored if that is all i received i guess. These are just my views and they could be wrong.....often wrong if you listen to my wife.
Sabahl	Posted - 2005.02.09 21:20:00 - [6] Most of us pirate agent runners are in this for the LPs though. We have enough cash and resources not to give a monkey's about the minerals so these drone missions are a pain in the whatsits.
Arthur Guinness	Posted - 2005.02.10 07:02:00 - [7] I like the odd drone mission, but i am getting to many DS missions for my taste :/ btw drones missions are cool because they give you the rares that go with the commons from the other mission loot. Nice way to build battleships without having to mine/buy the rares. Btw, Sabahl, seems npc demand for the Empire tags is working now. Altough the prices are a ******* joke.
Jim Steele	Posted - 2005.02.10 11:29:00 - [8] Edited by: Jim Steele on 10/02/2005 11:29:50 Originally by: Phantom II They need to have bountys. dont think this is true, i had two lvl 4 drone missions in sucession yesterday and now I have 6.5k of zydrene and 1.5k of mega and 20k of nox, thats pretty close to a BS. now where did i leave my miner twos for the low ends Death to the Galante

Im guessing theyre using the Base Values displayed on Eve-i? Ie 4.5 k for the lowest tag and 500k for the highest? Not only do we ge to sell the tags we need for our offers we also get very little money for them --------------------------- [Coreli Corporation Mainframe]

This one of the fairly few things ccp should have a look at.
Lebowske	Posted - 2005.02.10 13:16:00 - [11] Edited by: Lebowske on 10/02/2005 13:18:59 Edit: Didnt read posters orig/topic properly. I dont know if there's a difference between "your" factions/corps - but up in Gallente space I would say the frequency is more like 1 out of 10 missions has rougge drones. Some people want to keep this - other don't. At least for empire-space it's fine like it is now. -------------------- - Lebowski -- I, the royal we, you know, the editorial --

Viashivan	Posted - 2005.02.10 17:45:00 - [13] I do like those drone missions, even if they give not so much LP's. The LP we get as reward is like the one we got from pre-patch deadspace missions. Not sure if this is some minor bug. I think the time needed to complete these missions is fairly average and I appreciate any variety in 0.0 mission's. They are nothing I want to finish as fast as possilbe or something were I can fall behind, but something which is fun. thx Via
fairimear	Posted - 2005.02.10 18:12:00 - [14] 2 in a row lastnight. 1 out of 3 today sofar. total crap and am declining as many as i can. (\_/) (O.o) (> <) This is Bunny. Copy Bunny into your signature to help him on his way to world Domination.

Ah the offers, i thought you meant market buy orders Which isnt in yet, though its doubtful tags will be worth selling. --------------------------- [Coreli Corporation Mainframe]

Sounds interesting.. I had the Rogue Drone Harrassment mission today.. lots and lots of drones... first time I'd seen missile firing drones..

As for the joke factor, an Amarr Navy General II insigina is listed with a baseprice of 500k. That tag drops from an apoc :/
