There is a remote tracking link for turrets to improve their tracking / range.

Is there a missile equivalent? Cause I can't find it. If anyone knows the name of it, please tell me !

Nope.

If this is going to turn in to a proposal for one you might want to take it to F&I.

Last time they "buffed" missiles with the MGC/MGE, they undid 10 years of Rigor/Flare rigs not applying a stacking penalty. Be careful when you ask for "buffs".

Hint for this one: if we get remote MGCs we'll likely also get missile disruptors. There will be tears. The latter will get used much more than the former. And just imagine if they give the same to NPCs....

I doubt you would get missile disruptors, missiles already have the mechanic that they are actual objects and can be destroyed in flight.

Firewalling is a thing and adding another counter to missiles would just throw the balance way in favour of turrets

I somehow got into my head that they got scrapped. They didn't. I feel dumb. Guess they're not seeing a whole lot of use though.

Regardless, Guidance Disruptors.

No I'm afraid not but feel free to ask for one, I would be delighted.

Can we stop making all ships and weapon systems bland and interchangeable already?

Whoops, never mind. Guess I should read further down before replying.

Frankly it's a bit fishy to me how a tracking disruptor can change the explosion radius and velocity of a missile......but this is EVE where nothing is really logical.

Sometimes we just gotta separate reality or what seems like reality for game..balance?

That said, what I'd more be interested is AOE damage for missiles coming back but for ALL missiles. If XL torp has a 17 km explosion radius before skills....Just saying.....a lotta things should be caught in that blast. Drones, warp disruptor probes, the unfortunate frigate..... Even if it is the world's slowest explosion velocity. I wanna see numbers ALL THE NUMBERS.

I'd be down for that.
