Gila bugged?

When I use imperial navy infiltrators with Gila the 500% that medium combat drones get from the Gila is not applied to them even though they are medium combat drones. Is this intentional or not?

How are you determining they are not applied? The stats window may be all that is bugged.

When fighting Sansha NPCs the drones only hit for around 30, while their base damage is 32. Sansha are also relatively weak to EM damage, in which the navy infiltrators deal.

That's very strange. How did you aquire the drones into your drone bay? Did you put them in in the hangar screen or scoop them in space?

A while ago there was a bug where scooping drones in space would not cause them to change their attributes to the ship's bonuses. A tristan could scoop worm drones and do 500 dps, or a worm could scoop a tristans drones and only be doing 40 which is what this sounds like. It was supposed to be fixed, but perhaps you broke the game. Did it happen after you logged off and back on again?

I put them into it from the hanger and tried to relog, replace drones, etc. Still nothing

EDIT Just test with fed navy hammerheads, works fine with those

could be trying to hit an elite frigate?

high resist+high speed might mean infiltrators are doing lots of glancing shots on high resist.

Check your combat log. If you are seeing lots of "glancing" or "grazing" hits, the problem is that you're not tracking your target well enough. Web or paint your target, or fit a drone tracking mod and you'll see your damage improve.

If you're seeing "smashes", "penetrates" or just plain "hits", it could be that you're shooting at something with very high resists or there could be a real issue.


EDIT: Remember that the Gila only gets a bonus to drone damage, not drone tracking. Your medium drones will still have a hard rime tracking frigates or other fast movers.

Any chance I can get at the potential of getting permabanned I'll take.
