Please consider this as a new rig. If properly balanced it would be great.

Seeing as the most any existing dps rig gives ya is 10%, I see this as needing only a 10% boost as well, which on most ships, wouldn't even give you another light drone. In that form, I doubt it would be used much.

obviously such a thing would have to be like +1 light drone for the t1 and +2 medium for the t2. Might not be a bad idea, but you should sacrifice something big for it. Like a big sig radius bump for the side-effect.
And the costs should be higher to produce then like polycarbs. Like maybe 75-100m final sell price on the t1's. _________________________

Regarding the penalty. Cargo space reduction could be a good penalty if you are increasing drone bay size.
Bandwidth rig penalty could be something like a reduction in drone control range.
Regarding the 10% boost. Not all rigs are a % boost and not all are slotted at 10%. I could list many rigs with a base 15-20% bonus. T2 into the 25-30% bonus. Obviously on a small ship it wouldnt do much good but on a drone inept caldari ship for example it could mean the difference between 3 sentry drones and 4. Not a HUGE bonus but definately a strategic advantage for using the rig.
Bump for more consideration.

I would really love a 25 drone capacity rig. The drawback I guess would be -25 cargo capacity.

Something like this might be nice, but as stated before the drawback should be pretty significant for such a potentially large dps boost.

Well drone capacity wouldn't give too much DPS, it would just let you have more versatile drones. (If I had that rig I could have 5 heavy and 5 light instead of 4 heavy 5 light) It wouldn't be a huge DPS boost.

Drone Capacity wouldnt give a DPS boost if you are maxed out on your bandwidth.

I would prefer that they added the ability to carry more drones on ships with limited bandwidth, Most of the non-droneboats have bandwidth = drone bay... it would be nice to be able to carry a set of combat drones, but to be able to swap one or two out for a logistics or a different damage type without having to dock... ç¦ |

I'm not aware of any DPS rigs that are more than 10% ( on the tech 1, with 15% for tech 2 ). There are rigs that have a higher than 10% attribute, but they are not dps rigs, they are usually range, accuracy, or fitting rigs. Increasing drone bandwidth is a direct increase in dps, so it should not be more than 10% tech 1, and 15% tech 2.

I'd rather have a drone bay expansion rig. +20% drone bay capacity, allowing my Drake to carry 6 light drones instead of 5.
Also the balance problems are much smaller for bay expansion rights than for bandwidth-increasing rigs.
