I'm confused. OP talks about 100km orbiting frigates, and then you check at 10km? Excuse my confusion. Are the sentries 100km away from the domi, while it being orbited by a frigate at 10km?


Yes

Your first issue will be drone control range. After that, bouncers are the best. If the sentry drones are 100k away, they will nuke the frigs.

This was before the Dominix nerf when the drone tracking and range bonuses were cut from 50% to 37.5%. Then came the omnidirectional tracking link nerf

Those were two huge nerfs to sentry drones. Could the same thing be done today?.... That's a good question.

And from what i've seen with T1 sentries on Sisi against a T1 frig without a prop mod, it doesn't look good. Need to train up T2 to see if that makes a difference
