I think this would be fair since weapon upgrades affect capital weapons that can be used on titans and dreadnaughts. so why on earth did they think it was balanced for capital sized drones to not be bonused by it?

Not sure if this is a good idea. Carriers can get pretty crazy dps with their fighters, and super carriers get ridiculous dps with their fighter bombers. A thanatos already gets like 1800+ dps with 15 fighters, it would probably get around 2500+ dps with 2 damage amps. A nyx can get over 12k dps with bombers. I don't want to think about that with damage amps on it.

yes, and that's all destroyable damage, and with the recent supercap nerf, moms could get heavily neutered if it loses more than a few bombers.

Yeah, fact is how much tank are you going to give up for damage amps on a thanny or archon? Not blody many, I wouldn't anyway.

Would be a hefty boost to the shield carriers though, and that wouldn't be terrible.
