Hello all!


When a ship provides bonuses to Heavy Drones, does it automatically apply to Sentry Drones?

For example, the Vexor Navy Issue provides "10% bonus to Drone hitpoints, damage and mining yield". Does it means that Sentries also get that bonus?

And the Ishtar grants "10% bonus to Light, Medium, and Heavy Drone hit points and damage, 5% bonus to Sentry Drone hit points and damage", does it mean that Sentries get the 10% bonus per level for being Heavy Drones AND an additional 5%?


Many thanks

Sentry drones are not heavy drones. They do not get that bonus applied. If a bonus does not specifically state Heavy/Sentry, then both will benefit from that bonus.

If it only mention drones, then it`s all drones. If it specify the type, it`s only that type.

The Ishtar gives 10% to small, medium and heavy but only 5% to sentry for example.

So the VNI is a better sentry drone boat then the Ishtar?

Yeah, if you ignore the increased ship resists, increased drone bay size, and bonuses to sentry range, sure.
