Is it just me or has the Sentry drone nerf been patched in already. My Thanatos has gone from 1520 dps with Sentries down to 1324 dps.
Thats nearly 200dps drop in 24 hours with same fit.

Anyone else having this issue.?

no. and unless you're using bouncers specifically theres not much "nerf" coming for sentries. Maybe the switching of falloff an optimals could be cnsidered a nerf, I geuss

The fitscreen readout changes to what is in the bays when you field a set of drones. ie anything fit screen or info says about a drone is not to be trusted.

I'm finishing off training fighters for patch day in anticipation of them not being useless, ie I think thanatos pilots have much to look forward to in that patch.

The OP is probably seeing the neg effects of the omni nerf.

The upcoming summer changes are set to boost T1 and faction DPS. The only "nerf" as such will be to T2s if you do not bother getting your racial spec up before hand.
