It seems to me if you would think about it the MARAUDERS of all races are the flag ships of each race..

SO why would a frig have more drone controle and drone storage space than a Marauder heck even some of the faction battle ships have better drone abilities that the Maraurders...

IT takes the most time to train and skill up than any other ship except capital ones the nerf's allready applyed to these ships dont make sence to me...

I understand the need for new pilot's / but all of us had to go through the skill time it takes to get a great ship to fly...its not right to just hand out the skill sets to the new pilot's.. there is a sence of accomplishment when you have taken the time to do this like all of the older pilot's have,to just take that away isnt right..

I thought that was Titans. Which have no drone bays.

If now their T1 version was a drone boat, then I could understand the complaint, but this? What?

i'm not sure if this is just a troll post or not but if it isn't do you mind calming down and explaining what you mean?

He wants Sentries with his Marauders so they get somewhat close to Pirate ship DPS I'm guessing.

Everything about your post is wrong.

You're not even right about the training time. If that's your basis for marauders somehow counting as flagships, black ops take even longer.

I'm pretty sure that Titans are the "flagship for each race".

Marauders lost their large drone bay, but got bastion mode instead, which I consider much more valuable.

Marauders are representatives of their factions, yes. They proudly bluster with the main waepon system of each race - the (singular) main weapon system.

Caldari = Missiles
Gallente = Hyrbids
Amarr = Lasers
Minmatar = Projectiles

No drones...

Marauders need no more drone support in this - not from the role or lore perspective.
