No consequence for you Mr. Sniper.


DMs on the other hand.

Too bad you didn't notice that DMs with a full complement of drones equipped were essentially invincible until a recent patch.

I did notice the 99% resists. I chose not to exploit them.

I am not much for engineer, I really don't like the fact that you have the potential to lose so much money in drones. For this reason my engi has always been mainly a storage except when i can be asked to spend the money on new drones rather than something that can be saved by GG such as weapons for my MF or SD. But I have to agree, this is bad for drone masters, less drone slots mean it's harder to have the right drones ready, this leads to more likely to die and then next thing you know bam all your drones are dead and you are spending a couple bil on replacing them when other people spend like what was it like 250 mil for a high end player? I just don't understand why it's being made so much more expensive for drone masters than any other class.

Is it to much to ask just to go back to the way things were? I mean this is just un workable in every sence. (See above I aint gunna make a long winded speach)

Okay I have seen enough bugs to see where this is going.

./AGREE

/disagree This was the reason I went sniper :/

5 bfds, 3 charge, 1 bubble, 1 ACNC, 5 titans and 5 AinFs were my normal load in C1. I kept bfds on hotkey 1, charges on hotkey 3. Swapped titans and Ainfs on hotkey 2. Hotkeys 4 & 5 are dedicated to tractors, push/pull.

I was looking forward to being able to hotkey more drones in C2. I guess not a whole lot of point.

Not that I've had a huge chance to try it all out, but the 12 drone limit is annoying, frustrating and pissing me off so far.

Again, the problem is that DMs dont get extra slots, it works well until you cant lay 6 drones, which DMs can.

It worked before you broke it!!!!
Anything more need to be said? I think naught!

For some reason, I have 13 slots. And I do just fine with 13. I think I do count as a high end engineer, but I do not speak for the lower levels, as they have a harder time to choose the "main" set of drones. But for us high end engineers, I have one thing to say: The limit is just fine, plan your gameplay better if you struggle with not having the right drones equipped.

What of the potential to lose 100x more than other classes though? With the new system, all other classes can't lose anything except credits, whereas DM stands to lose more than ever before. The system is broken and needs to be fixed. In all other games, every player has the potential to lose the same when dying.

I wholeheartedly agree that something should be done about drones blowing up now that the new gear durability system is in. I never said anything about in my post, but I can just agree on all the points you make. But when it comes to drone slots, I stand by what I said earlier.

Actually, with C2 weapons now pre-charge instead of using bulk amount of energy to fire. If there was a quick way to (un)equip hotkeyed items, then I see no need for an increase.
