Other than flying a very large ship using Drone Control Units, is there any way to control more than 5 drones at the same time?

nope, only carriers can do this.
15 drones used to be the max (with a Domi, Vexor, or Arbitrator) but there bonuses were turned into a drone damage and hitpoint bonus when the maximum was cut down to 5 to reduce lag.

The only other ship that can control more than 5 drones is a Guardian-Vexor as CCP never fixed it when they re-did the drone system.
Good luck trying to find one though.

Edited by: newfaceok on 03/09/2006 02:53:35 5 drone max?
Thank god. I was lookin at the dominix 375 drone capacity and basically crapped my pants... Cant imagine trying to fight anything with 6 highslot and 15 heavy drones.
However, wth is the Advanced Drone Interfacing skill for then?

Every level allows the use of one (starting from zero at level zero) drone control unit. These drone control units are only usable on carriers and motherships.
Carry On.

So there is a difference between a carrier and a mothership. I assumed they were the same, as I've yet to find anything refering to a mothership, ingame or out.
So what are motherships?

A Thanatos, for example, is a Carrier. A Nyx, is a Mothership.
Look them up with the "market search" thingamajic for further details and info. -----------------------

I like the new drone changes.. The only thing I'd see changed is the Drone Durability skill set to 10% per level hit points instead of 5%.. It's a rank 5 skill so the payoff should be higher..

theres an advanced 13mil skill that allowes +1 drones per skills, this can be used on anyship, because the Ishkur can have up2 8 light drones with a 40m3 drones space.

Yes, you're wrong, and your question was answered above. The skill is for "Drone Control Units". And there are tons of ships who can't "use" their whole drone bay, you have the space for extras and different types. Versatility.
