I don't have any Amarr Drone Spec skills, because I did not need them for perfect sentry drone skills.
Now, I can't use T2 version at all.

CCP lied.

Im sorry for not counting t2 minning frig a ship.

Wait, what? There's a ship that helps you choose the smallest element in a dataset? Awesome! Where can I get one?

I sure hope as hell the mini shitstorm we are about to have ever ~6 week won't outlast the time between patches.

First, if you could fly T2s before, then you have all the prereqs needed to inject the skill, it is a cheap book and trains pretty fast. Where is the injustice? Second, that was not said long ago during the ship skill change, it was never said about this patch.

Yeah, the dev post is 4 days old and no sticky thread in ideas and features. And they only released 8 ******* Dev blogs that day.

Seriously, 8 ******* blogs in one day. Pro.

You just asked Dinsdale Pirannha "where is the injustice". I hope you don't have anywhere to be for the next 12 days, because his answer will take about that long.

What would you consider an expansion? New content, an overhaul of a core game mechanic, a new UI for that mechanic... These things don't count I guess, so I'm wondering what does count? Maybe they should add mounts.

Since you didn't even get the number of new ships right, yeah I would say you're not a fanboy. Blind, maybe. But not a fanboy. Lol


Im sorry for not counting t2 minning frig a ship.

'So somehow a ship isn't a ship because?

What a piece of ...work lol. Dozens of CCP employees working hard to enhance our game with an expansion for no extra cost and the best many of you can do is complain. Those CCP guys are way better than me, I'd through your pennies right back at you spoiled brats and tell you thanks but no thanks for your business.

The prospect is the best ship in this expansion, and I don't ever plan on mining with it.

You would think they would have put changes like that in a blog post or something. CCP has a lot of nerve.

You realize that nowhere in the dev blog does it say that your DPS will be decreased right? They rebalanced things by giving sentries more base damage and scaling them with racial specialization skills along with the reduction of the Drone Interfacing nerf. These changes were suppose to balance each other out and not actually result in a loss of DPS.

Yet the changes result in a loss of about 75 dps when using T2 sentries, which was NOT stated in the dev blog. And if you didn't have each of the 4 racial drone specializations trained up to 5 then you get even more of a damage loss, making you train 80 days of skills to still not get back the damage sentries lost in this patch.

Read the part on sentrys. They removed the 20% damage bonus of t2 over t1 and replaced it with the 2% damage increase per level fort he racial specialization skills. So if you have those at level 5, it's a 10% damage nerd to sentrys.

It was pretty clear on this, which you've seemed to have read but didn't agree with?
