was piloting this thing around a while ago.

it looks really good. Whoever did the modeling for that needs to revamp the entire drone line. Nice smooth lines and all sexy, like a drone should be.

Also does really decent damage. 131 with capped stats to a 127/127 launcher. It's pretty nimble too. Not like some of the other drones that handle like a truck, but then again...im new to droning, so it might just be me.

Awesome. I hope the DEX 100 one is actually useful against players.

The lower ones aren't really bad as scouting drones that look DAMN GOOD :P

This drone, is it rare drop, store bought, or FSM sold? Gives me a reason to transfer my near-capped droner over from NC1.

Umm.. where does it say poison?
The ion drons are supposed to be xray/energy.

this drone is pure poison and this one no one is able to buy yet.
I got it from an event last night.
Guess it will be out later as well.

My tank hates poison :-(
Only antidrone measure is spread out and find the bugger.

He's not a droner, he's a cster/resser.

The fire mode is poison, which I don't think means the dmg type is poison, the 'clip' is empty, so we can't tell what dmg it actually does.
Need to get a droner to use it.

friend of mine has it. later on today, he'll try it out.

he hasn't tried it out last night because of just nasty-ass gfx bugs.

Ion Drones do equal amounts of energy and xray damage.
Their biggest version is a Ceres Item :)



Drone descriptions haven't been "reworked" yet.... :p

The damage type is very scetch as the TL85 one says it does fire damage but it is mostly xray. I think the TL70 1 says enrgy and is mostly xray so *shrugs* If it does poison then....OMG... heh

The new drone modling is sexy as hell..... it makes you just launch one and forget what your supposedto be doing and just fly around for the hell of it :D:D:D:D:D:D

Damage Is EnR or Fire I think cause:


A Tank i tested on took exactly same DMG without and with Hazard3 (which gives POR/Xray)

[60 DMG on a Tank without SD and a crappy con setup, thats not very uber with an 37 Freq]

and

The DmG is crap on PPL who got Holy S.

[89 without SD on my PPU / 16 With]

So another drone who is crap on anyone with PPU SD. :(


----->

PN is faster, more manuverable and does More DMG over time

It ain't fire, at least not the tl 70/85, my spy took VERY low damage with PA on and loads without it and her fire resist sucks atm.

My test were only with the TL100 one, dont know if all three Ions have the Same DMG type.


What i know is that they all are crap on PPU SD, so it aint be POR or FOR DMG :(
