Although I can't fly a carrier yet I am trying to learn about them. Some people say that fighters don't get bonuses from rigs like scope chips or durability , nor do they get mod support from drone navigation computers. Is this true?

I would normally trust what people say, after all why would anyone in eve lie, but when I stick the mods or rigs into EFT my templar stats get bonuses. This leads me to believe that either EFT is wrong or the people I talked to had the wrong information.

It might be that they used to not get bonuses and now they do. I think there was a dev blog about them somewhere. Anyone know for sure if they work based on their own use in game?

Quote:
To provide consistency between all the drone systems in EVE Online, and to provide more options to capital and supercapital pilots in fitting and training, we are expanding all universal drone bonuses from skills and modules to Fighters and Fighter Bombers. This means that the drone skills, including Drone Interfacing, and modules such as Drone Damage Amplifiers will all apply their bonuses to Fighters and Fighter Bombers.


Since mid-2014 all modules and skills apply to fighters and fighter bombers.

Note that Carriers and Capitals in general are being reworked and carriers especially will change quite drastically come spring-ish. I would recommend you bring yourself up to speed by checking out the various dev blogs, especially regarding the change of carriers from logi/dps to pure dps and new logi capitals coming out.
