Greetings, as a relatively new player just reaching the point of income to be using some non stat increasing implants I'm wondering why is there ton of implants for guns damage tracking and stuff but none for drones? Is this intentional? |

I think so, drones has for a long time been more of a secondary damage system, when ccp gets around to fixing drones you might get some implants. Keep in mind it's only from the latest patch we got drone only ships. I'm a relatively respectable citizen. Multiple felon perhaps, but certainly not dangerous. |

nope, there are none. you only have the rigs and mods, but those have far greater stats that any other damage mod.
faction Omnilinks for example can give a pretty impressive +30% tracking and a flat +30% range, compared to the faction weapon TEs that give +10% tracking +10% optimal and 20% falloff. they also fit on a midslot freeing up lows for DDAs that give a 23% damage compared to the 10% damage, +10% ROF that weapon mods usually give. and even compared to TCs they are better, where you can get either the tracking or the range, not both.
ofc, you also have skills. drone interfacing is the best skill in game in terms of returns for investment, giving a +20% damage per level to all drones. then come all the other support skills that have some pretty strong synergies.
the idea as far as mods, skills, etc etc. seems to be that drone related ones have a better return, but unlike weapons drones can be targeted and killed. |

There has been a thread about it only a few days ago in Features & Ideas Discussion. See if you can find it. Loss is meaningful. Therefore is the loss of meaning likewise meaningful. It is the source of all trolling. |

btw, people should stop insisting on making drones just another weapon system... CCP will nerf them to the ground if they do. |

If you think about drones vs main weapons you should never disregard the fact that you can't shoot down someone's weapons leaving him with no offensive powers. |

I'd rather they fix the ****** UI first.
Also, if they make drone implants be prepared to have your drones nerfed in other ways. Whitehound has said it better in the F&I thread. |

Crappy doc fury. At least link the thread a lmgtfy link. Vote for me in the next CSM Elections. I will fight for the interest of all Hi-sec dwellers. No longer will you be cast aside and disparaged. |

No, but you can ECM/Damp/TD their weapons into uselessness, and destroy missiles in flight. Every weapon has drawbacks.
As to the lack of useful drone rigs and implants, it's because CCP hates drones. Many people grow to hate their own creation. Rifterlings Corporation is now recruiting pilots for faction warfare solo & small gang frigate PvP. Visit our website at www.rifterlings.com or join our in game channel weflyrifters to speak to a recruiter. |
