ive only recently taken drones seriously. Stuck to T1 lights for years cuz missile pilots basically dont need drones much.

Anyways, i can load up my turrets or missile launchers mouse over the icon and see my dps. My question is how do you see your dps with drones?

Yawn,  I'm right as usual. The predictability kinda gets boring really.

In game it shows it to you in the fitting window dps area (Top right,The highest damage set only) and in eft what ever you choose as you active drones.

Only if you fly frigates, flying anything larger than that and t2 drones are always good to have.

Just note that there is a big with the display of DPS numbers in game sometimes, especially with drones. If something looks off, copy build into EFT and double check.

putting this in the ingame help channel would have been exponentially faster than making a thread

Keep in mind that the DPS shown is for drones IN THE BAY RIGHT NOW. If you launch your biggest and baddest drones the number will drop.

Bingo, it only takes into account you top 5 dps bugs in bay. Still holding out for Drone Control Range to be added at some point, though Devs stated that will be part of the Ghost Fitting thing.

Drones: infinite cap and ammo.

Terribly broken, but so good :-)

"But but they might die if I'm bad at micromanagement!!"

Can I please get all my expended ammo back if I just click "return" then?

Arguing with myself as I'm about done on the potty and won't be coming back to see the obvious replies lol
