some of our guys discovered a drone expolit using sentries

Drop sentries
Set them to attack stationary object (pos or poco)
set them to assist a friendly who is not engaging the target with weapons other than drones
when they go idle warp away get more drones

you can set more than 10 flights of drones and being on grid doesnt deter your drones from shooting. you can warp away cloak anything but going into pos shied.

im assuming we can get a ruling on this that is an exploit?

One must not discuss possible exploits, but file them under exploits on the reporting system ingame or on this website. Big smile

15. Posting about bugs and exploits is prohibited.

Bugs and exploits should be reported through the proper channels. Bugs should be brought to the attention of CCP by filing a bug report for our Quality Assurance department. More information on filing bug reports can be found here. Discussions about unverified issues in game can cause unnecessary panic in the community. When there is an issue that the EVE Online community needs to be aware of, it will be communicated via an official statement from CCP after thorough investigation.


If you think it's an exploit, you should both 1) Not do that any more to avoid getting a ban, and 2) send in a bug report/petition to get the issue resolved.

As this thread breaks a rule, thread closed.
