I don't foresee this happening ever. It would have some very serious negative ramifications on numerous combat types/roles/fittings (think small gangs where active armor is already pretty good again - finally). NB4 triple-rep Myrms/Ishtars + medium repair drones (etc etc etc) as an example (easily close to 1000ehp/s repped if you include medium armor drones). But then you'd be lacking in the DPS department on your "Drone-Boat" now wouldn't you? So that happening goes right out of the window since it makes little sense to tank a little bit extra while reducing your DPS a lot. I'd say +1 to self-repping with drones.
Nope, bad balance changes/suggestions (in this case) make for some interesting possibilities such as what I mentioned above. But for your edification before implants
~200dps within scram/webx2 range > 950 ehp/s rep relatively safe from neuts
Would chew through frigs, assfrigs, dessies and possibly cruisers (slower) with ease. In fact, if this were possible I'd lol-about through LS and 00 nightly picking fights because it would be ridiculously funny.
So in short (even though I'd love it if possible), No. Clone mechanics enchancements Deep Space Probe Revival |

while your adding these drones, can you make sure they all continue to "engage" their target? Unlike certain webber drones you recently added which tend to give up on life after catching their target. |

Heh - now if only you didn't need to get close to an online ship array to swap drones in the cargo bay to the drone bay. As long as you got to do that its still as much hassle as swapping in a hull repair module.
Overall when I think about it swapping modules will remain my first choice for wh structure repair on ships. Drones help with POS guns though by giving you options to keep fighting at some level while repairing or able to immediately duck back under POS shields. Though I understand CCP is considering adding a combat cooldown counter to keep you from exploiting POS shields to evade PVP (new thinking that POS shields are only supposed to protect POS modules and ships in the process of launching/boarding from hangars). That would make drone repair less desirable.
Hmmm...drones can't repair your own ship but can they repair an unpiloted ship? For those times when you are the only one around that would be nice.
Of course drones are useless under the POS shields. So really hull repair drones only help repair buddies and reduce your available DPS during use. And for repairing your own ship they are useless... unless they work on unpiloted ships and you willing to do something awkward and dangerous outside the POS shield involving your damaged and unpiloted ship. |

CCP Fozzie, have you or are you considering allowing players to assign logi drones to their own ships?

Fozzie, these *must* be Minmatar drone models! The Minmatar have an intimate familiarity with fiddling with hull bits to make their ships even work! This travesty must be corrected!

Thanks for the reply.
I feel it would be fairly well balanced because with most ships, you would have to make a choice between dps, e-war and logi drones. It would also benefit small gangs/corps as they wouldn't have to bring dedicated logistics ships... I'll keep my fingers crossed for this future fix.
The hull drones are nice but they probably work far too slow to make them practical during combat. I may have asked this earlier but i'll ask again:-
How do you feel about adding hull rep drone bays to all logi ships and at the same time, giving logi ships a bonus to hull rep drones?

you would that would have been the first thing they would of thought of when making logi drones... Tech 3's need to be multi role ships not cruiser hulls with battleship tank and insane resists ABC's are clearly T2 in all but name.. remove drone assist mechanic. Nerf web strength ..... module tiercide FTW role based instead of tiers please. |

Technically, the armor bots should be Amarr and the hull bots Gallente; the Gallente were originally hull tankers after all, hence their generally more even mid and lowslot layout and large pool of hull hitpoints. Welcome to our universe where cooldown timers are a mystery, the PLEX menu is just an advertisement, shrapnel bombs deal explosive force, concussion bombs are somehow kinetically penetrative, and who left all these prototype Inferno modules all over the place? |

I think it would be appropriate for Scythe and Exequror to apply their generic logi drone bonus to those hull rep drones which they don't do at the moment. Any plans on changing this? |

I still think the hull rep drones should be Minmatar. Gallente may have been the hull tankers in the past, but Minmatar are it today. Gallente might have come up with hull repair drones back in YC108 or something, but they didn't. If hull repair drones were to hit the markets in YC114, one would have to assume they be from the Minmatar. Fit a warfare link to your tech 1 battlecruiser. Train Wing Commander. Get in the Squad Commander or Wing Commander position. Your fleets will be superior to everyone else's. (had this sig BEFORE Odyssey BC rebalance) And bring back the missile Inquisitor!! |
