Then you have to define "drone-based ship", which can be tricky when it comes to split damage type ships. Smile

I want the drone bay in my Ibis to be able to hold and launch a T2 Bouncer.

I don't care what happens to the other ships.

If they have drones they don't have drone bays?

@ OP

When you create dumb threads like these, are you aware of your own stupidity? Is there a moment when you pause and think "wow, maybe this isn't smart after all?"

Or do you have to rely on others to inform you when you've said something dumb? Cause this is one of those instances.

Maybe OP meant remove drones completely to reduce server lag. Slow connect today maybe?

He angry 'bout something.

Wonder how much he lost?

Can ISD just go ahead and delete this entire thread? Since troll posts aren't allowed, and I'll be damned if that isn't exactly what op's post is.

Enjoying the rain today? ;)

Long as you remove your hardpoints I got not problem with that.

Just cover your ships with sumo-suits and fight.

I would guess op is mad because of the Ai changes and missile changes and thinks this would be a better fix? (not sure though)

So let me extend your idea...

1. Remove drones from ships without drone bonus
2. Remove turrets from missile boats.
3. Remove turrets / launchers from drone boats and only give them utility high slots.
4. Remove missile hardpoints from turret ships.
5. Last but not least... remove the ability to fit stuff like neutralizers, remote reps and cap transfers into slots that are meant for turrets/launchers.

hmmm.... No, not really...

Give all ships drones. +1 5m3 drone to every ship, frigate and up.

I would define it as any ship that currently has a drone bay.

There, I fixed OP's fix!
