I have just finished drones lvl5 and i noticed on closer examination there is a -5m/s attribute. What speed does this effect, drone speed or ship speed.
Can see why having more drones would require them to go a bit slower but i cant see why knowing how to use an extra drone would make you fly slower.
Maybe this means its slower if u have an extra drone in your drone bay or something cause of the extra mass.
Does it effect you still even if your using a ship without a drone bay cause that would be really odd and annoying.
Anyway anyone know how this attribute effects your char i would be intrested to know, would love a reason for it too :)

I think it slows down the speed on a drone. So if you train Drones level 5 then your drones go 25% slower.
And that's where the RMR skill kicks in: Drone Navigation: 5% dronespeed per level. Train that and we will be back to normal like it was before RMR.
pointless? yes

yes very point less is this also contributing to the problems with drones no returning to ship bays as they are going even slower than they should. nice to know we have a skill that just unnerf another nice wast of time that is the skill to go faster dose nothing in reality ------------------------------------ fix eves industrial sector!

It does nothing. Just as if you look at the Caldari Industrial skill it shows a 5% boost to shields or some such. No other ship skill the in game has a bonus like that.
For some reason some skills have bonus's listed that don't actually do anything.

Drones go faster, not slower. Some *cough* of the numbers and singns are misleading while others are outright stating the opposite of the actual effect. --*=*=*-- Megadon CCP wanted a well known artist and celebrity to test the new font so it's approval would be well known. They got Ray |

Well i now know it doesnt affect ship speed for certain due to testing with an alt.
Cant see a noticable difference in drone speed tho this is just watching and checking attributes, about the least accurate way of checking possible oh and racing my ship and drones doesnt show a difference lol.
So this attribute is a load of bull by the looks of it. I wish CCP would actually clarify their skills and what they actually effect. Shame they are too intrested in creating new mystery atributes and changing old ones to screw the servers in someway so we spend more time offline than on.
Thanks for all your input guys.
I want to take control of ccp for 6months just to sort stuff out and show them how to run a corp properly
Maybe that will be final stage developement, put the players in charge of the universe. Bet we could do a better job of it to looking at the proficiency with which some corps are run.

As already stated, the bonus doesnt work, I think originally it was supposed to make the drones go faster but was never implemented.
I also think you underestimate the amount of work that goes into running this MMORPG. There is no linear path through this game, so in game possibilities expand at creative rate of the players, and the dev's have to stay 1 step ahead at all time. EVE is really an amzingly balanced game given all the degrees of freedom given to the players. So we should compliment the dev's on what they have achieved so far.

yes the drone skills descriptions are a bit "special"
if you look at drone navigation it doesnt display any bonus. can anyone confirm there is one ? if you look at drone durability it doesnt display any bonus execpt in the description. drones dont specify which race they come from and which drones <race> specialisation skill they are affected by. and of course "advanced drone interfacing" came out as "drone interfacing" and got pulled and drone interfacing was born and we are still waiting on "advanced drone interfacing" which is comming soonÖ.
Borked a bit but we live in hope that the skills we train are doing something even if we arent sure what that is.
Rant over.
