Lulz, so many nooblets who haven't flown dreads and haven't a clue. The Moros can now bash POS faster. Oh wait, blasters can't reach POS through shield radius. So now, you get to shoot POS with rails, and lose the drones that can hit everything else. Lol

Btw, Revelation.

a moros has NO issues at all shooting a POS.
even if you can't figure out that TCs increase range and swap out to non antimatter ammo for the rage, youre going to do a lot lore DPS at 30km than any other dread.

WTF!

One of the biggest bonuses for the Moros was like 10 or 20 % bonus to Drone damage per level. Now it just has a measely 5% bonus to turret damage and rof per level, and it can't fly one single drone at all! Shocked

Does anyone else think this kind of sucks or is this a sensible thing for the developers to do?? Question

Just curious what others think.

you complain about moros losing drones but getting more damage and that damage cant be popped by a single bomb?

you are weird

BUT ITS NO LONGER A SPECIAL SNOWFLAKE

Though, really it needs its description updated, as I'm pretty sure it mentions a "massive drone bay" in there.

The Moros does have much better total dps now - even without the drones. This will definitely make it better for taking out POS's as some of you have pointed out. However. I simply wanted to use a Moros to hunt really large rats in null sec. Now that I've said that, some of you will undoubtedly really think I'm crazy.

I do kinda wish they had a token bay because they are Gallente... I originally trained the Moros when they were 35 heavy drone spitting monsters and have watched as they slowly ate away at their drones first giving them the 50% per level, then lowering it to 20% and now removing it completely. While I am not complaining about the DPS increase I had trained for the damn thing because of its ability to fend off lesser targets and wish they had left a token of that even if it is only a token.

Sure you can shoot a POS with blasters if you hug the shields, actual range for shooting a death star is from about 150km though so that actual dps is usually quite a bit lower in practise.
Someone mentioned the special snowflake and yes I agree it was special and it made Moros a more Gallente with the drones even if I agree that it had rather ridiculously good drone bonuses for a ship that wasn't meant to be a dedicated drone ship or was it ?
Assuming someone didn't get it the moros had a drone DPS of a two Dominixies which made it rather useful in certain scenarios and ironically it was better at ratting then a carrier if you don't count in fighters.
