When I see my shiny golden phallus of splugorthian minionation has a nifty drone bonus (and the others), are these bonuses a to logistics and ewar drones?

Why can't geddon get bonus applied to EV drone drain, Prophecy to armor bots, sentinel to TD and EV drones, arbi to TD and EV? The other races would benefit some for their racial ewar drones -and I only mention BC drone boat having logistic drone bonus because of their gang leadership bonus potential.

It could be a way to save EWAR drones, I think its on CCPs list somewhere.

ECs are the only ones being used really

Only real place I've seen any other ewar drone other than ECM is in the alliance tournament in one or two matches.

Would be nice to see an overall overhaul of the drones before you make ship-specific bonuses for them though. A general boost instead of specific ones is in my opinion better though, even if it's slightly weaker. It makes the opponent have to guess what you will use.

Most E-war drones just don't have enough of an effect to be worth the loss of DPS.
