Just a few points.

Why tracking disruptor drones when we don't have any real sort of missile defense? Tracking disruptors own enough and now tracking disrupting drones? Yeah thats real balanced...

Where are the warp scrambling drones. With damage mods being basically restricted to 4 some ships will have ample slots to fill with WCS and fly with absolutely no penalty. WCS need a nerf and we need scrambling 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.


Exactly, great point. Who's going to use Caldari drones? They don't have a drone ship period. If you are going to make the damage bonus effect all drones please do so for the Arbitrator as well. It's our only cruiser which has a chance of not being 100% predictable.

Well having 0 grid 0 cpu 400 DPS weapons should have some drawbacks.. no?[/quote



It's called running out of ammo when the ammo gets hit twice by a large smartbomb.


Reading is fun, try it sometime.

On Smartbombs:

Drones currently last ~2 cycles of a large smartbomb. thats 20 seconds. Thats around 40 seconds to lose all your drones in a Domi.

Assuming drones get a 50% boost to hp, include the drone hitpoint skill @ 5, (we are at 75% boost now), and then 50% hp from the battleship skill (possible). You have 75% minimum increase, and possibly 125% increase, as well as 3 waves.

Each wave will go from surviving 2 smartbomb attacks to 4, possibly 5 (at 125%), or around 40 - 50 seconds. Add *two* more drone waves following that (instead of one), and you have 120 - 150 seconds, (2+ minutes) of drones shooting at the enemy.

That is more enough time to kill some BS targets, and certainly gives drone users a fighting chance vs smartbombs.


If you're in a Domi just drain the crap out of them, smartbombs eat a lot of capRazz
