So I just got drone sharp shooting V and was finally able to equip an Omnidirectional Tracking Link II, which is supposed to add %15 to the falloff of drones, but after equipping 2 of them, my Sentry Drones still only show a fall off of 20k. I tried in and out of the station and with the mod turned on and off... am I missing something?

Use EFT or pyfa, the game is notoriously bad as showing drone stats.

You can't really test active mods in station if I'm not mistaken, certain mods like MWDs you can mouse over and it will give you stats for it, but things like Omnis and Sensor Boosters, you must undock to see the effect they give.

He said he turned it on so I would assume that is undocked.

I know this was an issue when CCP nerfed them so maybe they haven't got around to fixing it?

This is pretty lame, I feel like I spent the last four days training a skill for nothing. I see no stat change.

Since the dawn of the server, CCP has been unable to provide correct ingame stats for drones. EFT or pyfa, or just enjoy the fact that garde IIs used from ishtar can snipe miles beyond the scripted optimal if required.

I guess this is why WOD was scrapped, they can't even get the game they already have to work right.

Omnis do work but there not showing in game... why ? ask CCP

They use scripts :scan resolution or range and they do what there suppose to ,but you will have to download and use EFT to see
the efects.

the drone stats arent displayed correctly, however, omnis work. you will notice with sentries when at the edge of the displayed falloff damage goes from ~60 per shot to 200 or whatever when the omni is activated.

I played with a Dominix and one of those omnis without scripts. Now I am afraid of Garde II's. Frigate murderers at 5km Shocked.

i believe ive read somewhere that aslong as they r repackaged in your drone bay u can see the actual stats with active modules, when said modules are running and u click showinfo in your drones in the drone menu in space
