I currently have about 400k SP in drones including Drones 5, Drone Interfacing 3, Drone Durability 2, Drone Navigation 3, Drone Sharpshooting 3, Combat Drone Op 3 and Scout Drone Op 3.
I'm curious as I have a 50m3 drone bay in my Coveter but I'm only using 5 light drones (25m3 total) at the moment. I'm thinking of going into lower sec space. How low can I go until these 5 little hobgoblins start getting owned? What about with Tech 2 scout drones, what kinda space can they hold their own in vs NPC ships? What about Combat Drones and their Tech 2 equivalents? Can they take out rats in 0.0?
Now, what about PC's? What kind of player ships could 5 of the best drones available take out and which drones should I choose?
Thanks!

You need to use 5 tech II med drones. Depending on the rat type will determine which drone to use.

Don't bother with "depending on the rat type". Always use thermal drones. (Best damage mod, and enough of a difference to more or less outclass the others in every situation.)

The Caldari ones are almost as good for about half the price though.

I personally would suggest 5 HobGoblinsII and 5 Mining Drones. The T2 drones will pwn most rat far better than their T1 version. They are faster, strong and more deadly.
So go for Scout Drone 5 and Gallente Specialization 1+
With the Covetor your tanking abilities aren't that much better so you want to take out any rats as fast as possible. Now if you were in a Hulk it would be a little less of a concern due to it's default tanking ability. ___________________

Vespa's tend to live longer than Hammers in an NPC situation.
Use mediums, the extra drones won't make a huge impact on your mining ability. - - - -- - - - -- - - - -- - - - Little known fact: 95% of DS's signatures have nothing to do with EVE. |
