Has anyone managed to repare themselves with their repare bots?
Near as i can figure you can not use your drones to repare yourself, they are basicly a remote rep in drone form.
If you figure out a way let me know but i don't think you can.

It would be a bit silly if a drone could rep one ship 500 meters from it, but not the other ship 500 meters from it... _____________________________ NPC Asteroid Belt Bases Honor Above Self Glory For Self Strength Of Self |

yeah just seems kinda counter intuative.
I mean it makes sence that a remote rep can't be used to repare your own hull but a drone orbiting you can't.....
oh well.

Yes it does seem rather odd.

the problem is 5 of these drones would rep more than the reper in its class and would do it for no cap use, which is a bit unbalancing since then all you would need to do for rating would be to fill your lows with 3 of each hardner type for the rats your hunting, and let the drones do the reping for you. you could then use the extra grid to fit alot bigger guns

Does the fact that if there are 2 of you you can do this anyway not kinda make your point well pointless?

Uh, no ? it means you can't use it solo. Beside if there are 2 of you, you can only get repped by 1 group of drones not both. Honestly they would be quite overpowered if you could use them on yourself.

And as for the balance whingers, there are shield repair drones aswell.

Actually they are heavy armor maintence bots, people are just calling them 'remote' in error. Secondly, yes they can rep you hardcore, but if you are using them to rep you, then your not doing dmg with them which is a sacrifice. Not to mention your opponent could destroy them. Lastly, there aren't a whole lot of ships that can even field 5 drones of their rep class now (like 5 mediums for a cruiser or 5 large for a BS) and the ones that can are normally considered drone boats so should be able to abuse their drones however they wish. ------------------------------- I have an idea.

Each of you would still have one flight of repairer drones patching away at them, for more than a comapairable level repairer would.
If the lag of fleet battles wasn't so bad, I wouldn't be supprised to see repair drone swarms become a major part of POS sieges. ____________________ I'm not an idiot; I just play one on the forums. |
