Jaredh Elkin	Posted - 2005.11.01 10:00:00 - [1] Originally by: Tuxford Personally I can see both sides of the arguement but there are certain differences that are convincing me that it should be a all around damage bonus the most crucial being that people on gallente drone ships didn't necessarily train up to use Gallente drones. The other being if drone ships being mostly Gallente will only use Gallente drones who's going to use the others. I'm a bit surprised that I haven't seen more complaints from manufacturer tbh. I was away for six months this spring and summer. As I came back, I noticed that there were these skills for race-specific drones. I still don't have an idea which are Gallente drones and which are Caldari drones - I thought that drones were Gallente speciality, first of all. I'd say you need to lose the drone race specification. Why can't Gallente build explosive drones? This seems the same as specifying missile types by race: "As minmatar, you need to use just explosive missiles". Not very bright in my opinion. (Granted, Caldari get kinetic missile bonus on some ships.) Give bonii to just "combat drones" or somesuch, if you want to give bonii to drone ships. And yes, the gun types are divided across racial lines. I don't know why this bothers me less than race-specific drones.
