Encounters with these ships have revealed several unique mechanics related to them alone. One such mechanic is that of an "overshield" - an additional layer of shielding coloured blue on the targeting display. When this blue shield has been depleted, target locks on the Drifter break, in the manner of ECM. Many have also reported that the Drifters' weapons deal massive amounts of damage, difficult for any sub-capital ship to tank without a specialised fit. Even capital ships are not immune, with many carriers being lost to Drifters, many by players attempting to test their capabilities. Drifters drop blue loot and Antikythera Elements.

Drifter battleships do about 1300dps of omni damage with their Lux Kontos suspended weapon system. Additionally they may use their doomsday-like weapon that does about 750000 damage. They scram with 5 points at 500km, web up to 40km and NOS up to 40km. Their maximum speed is 3500m/s, but their orbit speed is much lower at about 235m/s.

The Drifter battleships found in C5 wormhole escalations seem to be slightly different and do not fire their doomsday.
