 ares dronethis drone from AI base seems to be really under powered , its shields are low only around 11k and energy is also low , it runs out of energy really fast for how low its damage is. the jungle drones just simply out do it by a HUGE amount for only being 2 tech levels higher. this drone looks like it was suppose to be aimed at DPS but doesn't do very well in this case as it runs out of energy fairly fast.

Re: ares drone BFD 9000 is one. Goes out of energy sooooo fast. However, I think the main issue is that with weak, fragile drones, the Engineer cannot grab aggro over them. So if the BFD 9000 got more energy and energy regen, they will have more sustained dps, earning them with their weak resistances and low shields ... aggro. Engineers (off their ship) pose very little threat.
Going to do another topic. _________________ ->Aces High ->Fortes Fortuna Juvat ->Up with irons |

BFDs weren't even all that overpowered, they were paper thin, and if anyone could get close them they would just die because they couldn't fight back. Pretty sure they got nerfed because SDs complained about not being PvP gods versus them, back when SDs were the only real PvP class. |

Re: ares drone What ya'll gotta remember before you say whether or not something was over powered back then is that overpowered is relative to what was available/commonly used. BFDs were OP when they were introduced because the level of burst that existed at that time, and the damage they did compared to any other drone, along with the mechanics of the game were different.
Speed Demons and Berserkers were the gods of everything, very few played Snipers and Seers have always been niche... _________________ http://www.starsonata.com/suggestions |

Re: ares drone Mobile Lightning Drones suck pretty bad too. They don't have the bank or reg to be worth the effort, unlike say, Green Tricks.
Could you also look at some fighters? I've noticed Ujqii Ishi only shoot a few times and never return, making them even weaker than chihuahuas. Space Blue Alpha Fighters are paper-thin, slow and can't sustain. Damage-wise they too are inferior to chihuahuas, although less so than Ujqii. |
