Then why aren’t you flying them.
I mean, I still do occasionally.
But mostly I fly Paladins/Sleipnir in incursions now, I fly Claymores or Sleipnirs or Leshaks or any marauders (Kronos is most fun, Pallies/Vargurs also great, Golems kinda boring) for L4 missions…
I run anoms with 3x FOF jackdaws on my mains (and on my frig/DD alts) for faction spawns and escalations. Depending on the escalation, I’ll either clear it with the jackdaws themselves or maybe upship into ye olde triple ishtar comp.
The good ol’ Lovetar (4 small deadspace armor remote reps in the highs of all 3 ishtars, repping each other up and repping sentries or heavies that take aggro as well).
For events, I sometimes do confessors or tengus or ishtars but lately I mostly have used my claymores. Tried Ikitursas as well.
Oh, and for WH content mostly Tengus / Basis / Rattlesnakes and for the trig / Pochven content I’ve mostly used Leshaks, Ikitursas, Hurricanes, Muninns, etc.
Yeah well, I wanted to re-sub to fly my domi’s fleet.
I’ve never fired a missile in in all the years between 2009 - 2014
I’m gonna have to seriously consider if i have enough time and money to play EVE with now i’m married and all. I’d set aside the money and everything but this one issue is making me re-think about it as it would negatively effect my drone-boat-playstyle so much.

Their are 2144 replies at the time I’m writing this so my apology’s if I’m repeating what someone else has already said.
My only issue about this change concerns missions like “The Blockade” where you get groups of rats that warp in at a distance and are quite heavy on sensor damps. Now I know that mobility can overcome this but it’s also quite helpful to be able to dump your drones out into space so when the sensor damps hit the drones auto aggress and attack the cruisers whilst I close the distance to reacquire my locks.

So not only will my drones get insta-aggro’d while I’m being jammed and sensor damped, they won’t even attack back? Why have drones?
Guess I’ll just go with auto-targeting missiles then.
And how will this affect salvage drones? Will we need to target each wreck and manually salvage? If that’s the case, then the mobile tractor structure shouldn’t auto-target wrecks either.
@Feng_Schui you and @Kestrix have a reading comprehension problem somewhere. Which, this never should have been bumped by kestrix in the first place (should have been closed)
this change was reverted due to other issues with the drones and how they worked. so no need to worry about the changes… they didn’t go through.
@ISD_Dorrim_Barstorlode can we please close this?
@Feng_Schui as i mentioned, this change never happened… if you read the date on the first post, its november 2020… This thread was supposed to have been locked 3 months after the last post was made. Kestrix posted 6 days ago when they shouldn’t have been able to.
Or it could have been the fact that this thread was at the top of the forum and December is not that far away. This thread should have been locked when it was no longer applicable.
Huh, automod didn’t catch this thread. Let me take care of this for you all.
