Dragoon: 75m3, 25 bandwidth.
Algos: 60m3, 35 bandwidth
Arbitrator: 150m3, 50 bandwidth
Vexor: 125m3, 75 bandwidth
Prophecy: 225m3, 75 bandwidth
Myrmidon: 200m3, 100 bandwidth
Armageddon: 375m3, 125 bandwidth
Dominix: 375m3, 125 bandwidth
What happened?
This is my main beef. Gallente drone boats get the bandwidth to field heavier drones, but not the capacity to field adequate spares. As a result you end up playing the recall, re-deploy game constantly since drones are still wicked easy to kill. |

I honestly don't know how you can say this with a straight face.
The dominix becomes a pure drone boat. And one that can field 5 heavies. Yet it's drone bay can fit only 3 flights of heavies, with no room for lights or mediums (to have the flexibility it would need against tacklers for example).
Now maybe 3 full flights of heavies is plenty for a drone based platform, as it does give you a fair amount of flexibility for either spares or flights of different damage types. But a slight increase to be able to have that flexibility on the heavy side coupled with some extra space for lights would be a huge benefit. |

I still think the Dominix needs a larger drone bay to fit with its "drone boat" moniker. Given it is a battleship, so it will generally be fielding large drones, you don't get to bring very much variety with only 375m3 |

Drones are their life and so a bigger drone bay is required. 375 m3 is enough for three full flights of sentries what
A friggin Gila has a bigge drone bay.
