Working as an employee for Viziam, I have been active in something known as Project Betazone. Project Betazone is my personal attempt to understand Rogue Drones.]

It would appear Rogue Drones mutate. For example, in a recent case, Drones in the Harerget System from Duvolle started going offline. I found 4 corrupted Duvolle Labratories Recon Drones. 2 were in the form of typical drones. However, 2 were also in the form of Rogue Drones. It would appear that Rogue Drones use some type of material to transform Drones into Rogue Drones. ((This was in SoE Epic Arc, so actual in-game fiction))

It would also appear that Mexallon, Isogen, and Noxcium are vital to the construction of Rogue Drones, as they are all present in Rogue Drone Alloys. This is interesting in the case of Noxcium, as it is often used to construct Capsules.

As I continue to research Rogue Drones and their activities, I would be interested in tips in this thread. I will contain to update you on my findings.

Isn't it just reprogramming and then upgrading for them to make more actions that just standard combat drones?

Besides, I am sorry for sounding trivial, but isn't it better to just shoot at them if they move instead of studying them?

Honored are the dead, for their legacy guides us.

You may find a journey to the drone lands worthwhile despite the recent heat of the region. I would say that the data and relic sites there may have some valuable information to you.

Mr. Ernaga would be right, the Drone Lands would definitely be of use to you, I've only been out there once and didn't find much of use to me personally.

I will male sure to visit. Next up I will be primarily using cloaking devices to observe Hives, and to study differences between hives. Also, I will be deploying and abandoning drones to observe Rogue Drone interactions with said Drone.

Wasn't your name removed from the Book of Records, heathen?

I hope your research continues, but in someone else's hands.

I would like to tell everyone that Viron is gone. He has sold the project to me, disconnected from his pod, and is on some kinda've religious retreat or some bs.

Anyways, I am now the head of Project Betazone, and will soon be forming Devilhound Cybernetics. Or the Devilhound Research Group. Can't figure out which one.

Tata for now.
