You raise an excellent point. I don't think the new AI is a problem. We just need to adjust to it. Does not seem to be stopping anyone from selling things in Jita as you suggest.

Change is the only constant. I will even adapt to blatant absurdity. You know who you are.

Only the Cake is a lie. They fixed the full room aggro bug. I think that was a much worse problem than DroneaGeddon ever will be. So your drones get targeted? Good, no more afker's.

Well they have neither decreased nor increased.
That is the odd part.
If drones were dying people should restock or cease their use.
Both would alter the sell volume.
Instead it is constant.
Thus my befuddlement.
Also assaults and heavy missile launchers have maintained their relative profit prior to patch which is also odd as they should have sorted out which is better.
Also PDS 2 are down in price.
Which probably corresponds to the pw grid alterations.

I think you are seeing an increased usage by some players balanced by others simply quitting using drone boats, or missioning altogether.

You want to see a real drop off on drones?
Wait until CCP fixes the bug that Fox Four discusses Nov 9th in the Features Feedback blog.
When that loophole is closed (CCP has given no date as to when), drone usage will spike for a few days until players realize that drones are utterly unusable, then watch numbers crash.

IN.

This thread has got big, can we save it before the lock? Some serious discussion perhaps.


In their attempt to nerf AFK mission runners CCP may have gone too far in causing rats to target drones. Does anyone have a 2000 word suggestion of changes that could be made to fix this?

Give the drones some cake?

More seriously (is there more serious than cake?) a slight reduction in their MWD bloom would be enough.

12. Spamming, bumping and pyramid quoting are prohibited.

Spam is defined as the repetitive posting of the same topic or text or nonsensical posts that have no substance and are often designed to annoy other forum users. This includes “first” and “go back to another game” posts. Bumping posts in order to keep them near the top of the list is also prohibited. Petitions or "/signed" posts are a version of bumping and likewise are not permitted. Pyramid quoting is a response to a forum thread that contains the quotes of four or more previous posters, sometimes with additional spaces added unnecessarily. Posts of this nature are not conducive to community spirit and are unwelcome.
