I proposed an option to reimburse all skill points relating to drones since the new patch completely annihilated the option to use drone boats in DED plex's and some missions with out seeing you're drones insta pop to 35 + NPC ships primary. Not complaining about the new AI as a whole I think it's good for the game. Drone users should however have an option to perform PVE and allowing them to move all skill points from drones and into a gun of their choice is fair.

I no longer propose this, problem solved, delete thread.

Sleepers target drones too but the fact that sleeper sites were built with this in mind has allowed a fair balance. Watching your drones get insta popped 10 seconds after deploying them in a regular mission is a tad annoying,

If they get their Drone skills reimbursed, I want this.

So guess what, the answer is no.

couple of useless modules and a buff on a module that arrived 5 years late? yeah we do forget quickly.
Might i suggest filling in usual faction/ded modules niche before officer ones?

i dunno. drones are practically ammo. I refill them from an orca, in space between missions. and I had a stockpile of 14,000 T1 light drones (which I don't use T1 anymore, so I gave them to santa spirit for the gift giveaway)... it just doesn't strike me as a nerf

but ok, I'll have some empathy and agree that a hit to drones has a significant impact on some players. I'm staying on my drone min-max training plan, though. and a drone sp refund never crossed my mind.

Yeah, I can actually do PVE again. I like the new AI and it makes things less predictable and easy to farm. Using drones for most DED PLEX's was just not an option any longer which goes beyond nerfing and was just completely overkill to drone users so now I have switched to using hybrids. Carrier and drone boat prices are going to crash hard in the coming weeks as all the Jewbears now realize they are worthless for PVE in NULL and LOW.
