A recent change? Because I used to try to keep the Scale Plate pirate HQ alive once and keeping an eye on it they weren't able to do much against a single faction destroyer.gorgofdoom wrote: ↑Sat, 22. Jan 22, 23:36Yep. My newest fleet is a Zeus E carrying 12 osprey's with 17 drones each.
204 drones is really hard to argue with. With a complement of 24 torpedo pulsars on hand this makes short work of enemy stations.
Resupply ships can also dump their 100 drone complement into the battlefield very fast with launch tubes.
60 drones or so iirc? I was expecting them to kill subsystems at least.
