I see the PvP section still needs to be filled in. I'm too tired to do that right now but here're a few notes towards it:

I put some notes here for later use. Since I've now used them, I've replaced them with this note about the notes that used to be here. --[[User:Uryence|Uryence]] 21:06, 4 April 2010 (UTC)
* People seem to use Minmatar and Gallente drones almost exclusively in PvP: Minmatar for high speed and explosive damage, Gallente for pure high DPS.
+
 
* Ewar drones don't see much use because stacking penalties reduce their effects.
+
 
** But ECM drones aren't affected by stacking penalties and are used, especially in small gang/solo fits which might need a card to play to help them escape, and might not have external ECM support.
+
I propose to remove the section on caring and feeding of drones which more correctly belongs in the separate article on drone usage. I Intend to replace this section with 5  tables listing All the Hulls that carry drones with capacity, bandwidth and bonuses.  I  do not intend to include carriers and non warship hulls.
* Light drones are still helpful against frigs but well-piloted MWD-pulsing player frigs die much more slowly to them than NPC frigates do.
+
 
* Sentries do get used in PvP but I don't have any personal experience of using them in PvP (because I can't use sentries :) ).
+
My rationale is that drone use cannot be separated from the hull. We need a hull to launch our drones and the bonuses and capacities have important implications for our choice of hull and drone. The techniques with which drones are then employed  are directly informed by these choices. --[[User:Anh teritz tobal|Anh teritz tobal]] ([[User talk:Anh teritz tobal|talk]]) 15:21, 1 November 2013 (UTC)

I added basic information on Mutated Drones because it's a major recent change that wasn't described anywhere in the wiki that I could find. There's more that can be done, such as adding an image of the info windo for a mutated drone, etc. ([[User Chihuahuaraffe|Chihuahuaraffe]]) 03:56, 28 February 2023 (UTC)

Mutated drones

I added basic information on Mutated Drones because it's a major recent change that wasn't described anywhere in the wiki that I could find. There's more that can be done, such as adding an image of the info windo for a mutated drone, etc. (Chihuahuaraffe) 03:56, 28 February 2023 (UTC)
