Player Features and Ideas Discussion

Wait a second. I just spent almost a ******* month training drone Interfacing 5 and now your reducing the bonus to 10%? Are you serious? Sure your increasing the damage of all drones to compensate, but I wouldn't have spent 20+days just for a 10% bonus that would apply to only 1 weapon system. I trained because I wanted a measurable increase in dps, equivalent to another drone damage amp, for my drone boats, which also happened to boost my dps of non drone boats by a fair amount as well. You say your doing things to make eve more friendly to new player, but in general your not. I dont see how making what was originally one skill into 2 or more is new player friendly..

When you do a fresh install of the EVE client, part of the terms and conditions that nobody ever reads states that the game is being continually rebalanced and by clicking "accept" you waive any right to compensation for this sort of thing.

(I did in fact just make that up, but if its not already in there it definitely should be)

As someone who does read them (at least for the major releases)....... there is a line in there something like that....
besides - OP - you've had the use of the skill for however long - if it's not more than 28d, then you should have kept an eye to devblogs and we have no sympathy

+20% damage / level was unbalanced compared to other skills.

+10% is more in line with, say, Sharpshooter that gives you +5% dmg/level for all turrets for a third of the training time.

Also, I cant even fly a supercarrier let alone a carrier, but the idea that a supercarier not being super is jut plain stupid. I'm sorry, but a supercarrier that can only deploy 10 fighter-bombers is just pathetic.

Oh so wait, newbies have to train skills to do moar damage? Who'da thunk it.

Point is, if i spent 20+ days training a skill and they reduce the time needed to train it after its been trained( as i doubt an extra 10% damage would justify 20 days of skill training, 7-12 max.) then I do have a reason to be upset. That sp couldve went to something else.

I know I still get the same dps, thats not the point. Point is, I dont see a situation where the 10% bonus to drones stays at the current 20%'s 20+day training que.

That's not the point I was making. As long as dps says the same it's cool. Iths the training time im concerned with, as I doubt it will still be 20+ days.

First off, the last official thread on drone changes was x many of months ago and disappeared Infinity+ pages back in the f&i board. There hasn't been anything in the kronos expansion threads yet.

As for devblogs, When something important is announced I do read it. However unlike you I don't carry my pc to the bathroom while im sh+++++g on the toilet, nor do I sleep with it on my pillow. I also dont have the devblog ios app or the rss mobile feed.
