Well, I'm all for the HP increase for ships in Kali. Making fights a bit longer is nice. However, having Gallente char I am kinda disappointed that my drones will die A LOT more now. Longer fights > more time for the enemy to kill my drones > poor offenseless Gallente char!
Discuss 
PS: For you anti-drone whiners out there...if you're having trouble fighting a drone ships, you might wanna try going after drones first next time. Drones aren't overpowered, so please don't start that discussion

But either way.... donno if they need it really, so why not, boost.. yarr

Yep drones need a hp boost for sure. People have a lot time to kill off the (ecpensive) offense of drone boats now.

But you could do that before too. And whenever I scoop drones they won't damage you anyway. Just for the record, I also got a Minmatar char, and I don't think a drone HP increase would create any disadvantages for it...it's only fair tbh.

That's why you can scoop the drones and release them again. And if you are smart enough to have fitted a couple of sensor dampers your target will not be able to lock your drones for maby 30 seconds, and then scoop and release again
But yes you where able to do the same before, but if you increase the HP of drones you might not the able to "alfa strike" a drone before it is scooped again. That was what I meant.

After playing around on the test server I can see it's all the rage to kill my poor drones so that my dominix dies a slow and boring death

Yes, because all close-range droneboats fits sensor dampeners... 
With the proposed HP boost it is only fair that drones also receive their HP boost.
This is my lazy attempt to make
an uber-signature, please go away!

If a sensor damper 2 keeps your drones alive maybe you should... Just a thought, but if you snipe you fit boosters, if you use missles you fit bcm. Maybe if 1 sensor booster 2 makes it so your drones survive then you should fit one. It would be a module to make it so your weapon system stays deployed and not destroyed. Makes sense to me to fit a module that compliments a weapon type.

The fact that IRON and other non-ASCN fanbots are in favor of this chance are a clear sign that an increase of drone HP are necassary!

Yes, i am not smart, i`m actually a L4 mission***** that just sits in Jita and carebear all day in my Raven (♥).
Now, when u actually have flown an Ishtar (or other) and gotten some sense, there is a lot more other useful modules to fit then a sensor dampener or two.
Edit:
And on another note, Rad, get on msn u nubcake.

I like this idea. Drone HP should be increased to allow them to survive during the longer fights in Kali. %50 for both T1 and T2 drones and fighters as well (20mil a pop, d@mn things SHOULD have some survivability) to match the increased HP on ships.

I'm for it, but I'd like to see more than that changed.
1. A 3 minute delay before a drone, once scooped can be re-deployed, the same delay used in between jettisons. No more instant repair for drones, and the choice between multiple waves of smaller drones vs a single wave of larger drones isn't so cut and dried. You could launch a different group of 5 drones immeadiately, but not the 5 you just pulled in for example.
2. The ability to reload drones to the drone bay from cargo, again on a 3 minute delay, and restricted to a no aggression timer status while loading. Additionally, reloading would not be allowed while in warp.
3. Drones auto return to drone bay of the controlling player during emergency warp out situations such as client crash or lost connection. To go along with this, I'd like to see NPC scrambling removed, and no e-warpout for ships that are being scrambled and have insufficient wcs to counter.

Yes because battleship type drones(heavys) with lower then cruiser signature raduis isnt bad enough allready.

Kali really punches the Ishtar, Domi, and Myrm in the stomach with the HP increase and no drone HP increase.
