This was brought up in another thread and I thought I would post it here in the off chance it might get fixed.

Notice a trend? Increasing speed.... increasing tracking speed.... decreasing damage modifier? wait no, the damage mods on the warrior and the acolyte appear swapped.
The same trend with the "swapped" damage mods is present in the medium drones, and the large drones, they all use the same damage multipliers.
This has been noted for some time... It makes "amarr" drones suck, and "Minmatar" drones pretty darn good. It seems its been tolerated since the drones aren't race specific, and it doesn't create much in the way of balance issues.
But since we've got a rebalance coming up, I think we should make some noise about this now, so they can fix this obvious oversight when they release the expansion.
Seems like it would be pretty trivial to fix this issue and make Amarr drones actually worthwhile. |

I'd support this, but I quite enjoy killing things with my overpowered Warrior II's, and thus I must oppose it instead. *dodges nerfbat* |

Nothing like flying an interceptor and suddenly 100 warrior IIs redbox you at once in a fleet fight;
You burn off and switch to your Drones tab and the game chokes up. |

I propose going a bit further:
EM drones are made equal to EXPLOSIVE drones in everything except damage type. KINETIC drones are made equal to THERMAL drones in everything except damage type.
Reasons being: Warrior II's don't need nerfing, it's the kinetic and em drones that need buffing. Kinetic drones currently have the intended dps but are underused. As long as em and kinetic drones do inferior dps, they will be underused. |

Amarr drones suck Mini drones are overpowered. This is why.
Are thinks working as intended or is it an oversite on ccp's part. Please get this raised by the csm so we can get clarification on the issue even if nothing gets changed. |

i would like to see a ship that is focused on drone use the the exclusion of launchers and turrents. But not being a capital ship.
on topic tho.
i would like to know too if the drones are intended like that or if it is an oversight.

simple easy fix. All drones have the same speed, damage mod and tracking. No need to get all crazy with the stats on drones ffs. Every race has a resist hole somewhere and now all combat drones more are useful. |

Drones is a weapon system.
Caldari Primary: missiles Secundari: Hybrids
Amarr Primary: Lasors Secundari: Mssiles Tertiar: Drones
Minmatar Primary: Autocannons Secundari: Missiles Tertiar: drones
Gallente Primary: Hybrids Secundari: Drones Tertiar: Missiles
Better review all ships with a tertiar weapon system and remove it. Change the recons & combat recons, swap the dps over from drones to primairy or secundary weapon system (and not all three like gallente; wtf?). Add high slots if needed. Make the drone bonus on gallente more powerfull as in apply damage onto the ship i.e. increase microwarp speed. Increase signature of drones. CCP FIX BLACK OPS FFS |

That should have been fixed long ago, surpized why it's still not changed. Amarr Light and Medium drones really need a boost of damage modifier. |
