I suppose asking for a refund on all my sentry drone SP so I can put it into basic gunnery is out of the question?

This is what happens when you chase the FOTM.

I would like a weapon that makes a missioner's drones attack himself.

Chase the FOTM long enough and you'll have everything anyway.

Or in my case, stubbornly fly the same thing until it becomes the FOTM.

Because in eve, all you ever have to train is one weapon system and then you're done, right?
Cry more.

Sentries are so last year.

It's all about light combat drones now. Trust me.

It probably due to the fact that like myself people continually train up skills so that can do things faster/more dps/more of this that and the other and CCP continually seem to then change it so it actually takes you longer/less dps


Personally I'm just getting tired of training things up to get that extra 5% and then CCP basically taking it off you because someone is crying or complaining because they don't have the extra 5%.
Not everyone plays in 1000+ fleets where the numbers are so screwed with certain weapon systems that the weapon system becomes over the top but when the change is forced by these numbers it obviously effects everyone not just the target intended.

CCP may as well just offer one ship per race with one weapon system per ship and get rid of this obviously outdated notion of choice and skills.

So you deliberatly train the most overpowered thing in the game and then cry when it gets hit with the nerf bat. Seriously Cod players are more intelligent than eve players when it comes to overpowered things being nerfed.

double post derp

Yup, and the thread owner was in a Myrm, that has no hull bonus.
Want to take a crack at that using only useless Omni's now?

Of course, I am conversing with a goon, so what is the point.

Ok so I use a Myrmidon for ratting, I got 4 curators and can usually rip stuff up before the rats even get into lock on range.
Now all of a sudden they can't hit the broadside of a barn, and at that, Omnidirectional tracking links seem to be activitable now, and I thought they were passive before.

CCP plan to fix this? Or was this intentional?

Seriously, the first thing I check on the EVE forums is Features & Ideas. It's where all of CCP's ideas plus the resulting emo-player-rage can be found.

You don't so much train skills to be more effective than yesterday, as to be more effective than the pilot next to you that didn't. If it was too effective yesterday, it will get fixed "soon". But you still keep your edge vs other pilots when using it.

Not everyone plays in 1000 man fleets. I saw a wing of dominixes for example, blapping signature bonused destroyers with high transversal at ~100k. They were likewise out of line in even smaller engagements. In the grand scheme of things, it is the solo PvE player that is the edge case - not the 1000 man battles. And lets face it, afk PvE drone boats are still broken as hell.

As for choice, everyone is flying sentry boats now for a reason. It's about time we got some choice back.

Nice way of showing you have been living under a rock for the last couple of months. Are you familiar with the concept of patch notes?

When you create a product for a customer and you offer them choices which are not reimbursable then you should do your best when reassessing your products to have as little impact on those choices as possible.

Then CCP comes along and reinvents the game, not small adjustments, but huge sweeping adjustments, sometimes they invalidate an entire line of ships / modules / skills without any regard for the customers who were unfortunate enough to have put their skills into those areas.

When CCP does this they should a) refund the money we paid for those skillpoints or better b) reimburse the skillpoints. That they do neither is disrespectful and dishonest to their customer base.

This drone nerf was not advertised, which is why people are so up in arms about it. Again, they advertised ship art, they advertised deployables (whooptie do) but there was no mention of yet another drone nerf until the patch notes came out.

After the fact.

So yeah, we're mad and we're justifiably mad.

Ah, so you were using drones for 'efficiency' rather than simply for the love of the little rascals


Remember, a drone is for life, not just for one mission.
