I have a complaint that I hope can be addressed by CCP. So I fit a few Large SB's to counter drones. I get jammed by a few EC drones and turn on the smart bombs and insta pop the drones.........

However for the next 18 seconds I am still jammed by drones that no longer exist. I dont mind being jammed by ships and drones that are actually alive, but when they are dead I would appreciate it if their affects went away too. ty 8)

Isnt the idea that they disrupt your targetting systems for a cycle, and it takes you 18 seconds or whatever for your systems to get back online?

I am fairly certain that when teh Falcon pops or warps you are automatically unjammed.

@DHB I feel your pain... ever since they made ew chance based and thus at the same time OP and fail I like nothing about it...

That's a good point about the Falcon. So what happens if you put your EC drones on someone, get a jam, then recall your drones for 20 seconds before putting them back on him? Do you keep the jam?

It's an obvious oversight that is working as intended.

EC-XX drones have always been broken, since all complaints in this regard is met with "working as intended", "HTFU", "GBTWoW", one can only assume they were designed to be broken.

In short: CCP are (or to be fair: were) inept.
