    The formation I'd like to propose would be called The Bullet formation.

    It would take an oval "or egg shape" pattern around the ship.
    When activated it increases all " both types of" rocket damage by 4% per drone and reduces shield penetration from enemy fire by 20% there would be a 10% penalty to speed and hull points.

    The suggested price would be 100k uri.

  2. i am confused if this is just a drone formation or this is a drone design, they are both different and i think im understanding the post as both drone design and drone formation
     
  3. Further confusion is Drones do not fire ROCKETS and increasing the damage per drone means you are increasing rocket damage by up to 40%, so would this be the single fired rockets or the launcher fired or both?

    Edit:

    Thank you for editing the O P to reduce the confusion.

    I still think the increase in rocket damage should not be per drone or it needs to be reduced as a 40% increase in damage to a Tech assisted hit from a PLT-3030 of 8400 plus all of the Launcher rockets (which do not disclose damage caused) might just further the imbalance of the game causing even more lower level players to leave the game.

    I think a maximum increase of 10% would be more in line with usual benefits from formations.

  4. I agree the description seems odd... maybe if the words in RED, i added, were removed it would be a little better or if VESPID could clarify...

    Oops. i meant formation.
    I'll correct the post.
    The idea is to counter the use of Moth formation and the spectrum ability which I have been seeing frequently.

    Edit: would reducing all rocket damage to just 25% suffice?
