Carrier Fighters, affected by passive skills?

I was wondering if Fighters released by a player carrier are affected by any of the players passive skills? Such as Starship Weapons training, etc.

Oh... and on a random side note, what abilities affect the strength of Photonic Fleet?

    Not sure about that... but I do know their recharge rate is directly affected by aulixary power (more = less recharge time)

    As for Photonic Fleet, it doesn't list any when in the Powers tray. So I'm thinking no

    Alright, thanks... I just remember reading somewhere that certain passives do affect Photonic fleet, or maybe it was just a type of console.

    That was probably the case before the skill tree got an overhaul (it had many more skills).

    But now, with the new skills very much simpflied, I don't think a skill or console boosts Photonic Fleet anymore.

    Bump for the first question. Hoping that someone knows for sure if passive skills affect them or not.

    If you are asking about like shield strength, hull strength, weapons damage, etc on them? No, I don't believe any skills will affect them. For power siphon drones, I think Flow Capacitors might help with their effect, but I can't be certain.

    Any carrier pets are pretty much standard for anybody who uses them, otherwise there might be some wicked-strong pets out there if they were affected by skills.

    Nothing that you use on yourself or is used on you affects your pets.
    Only debuffs on a target do improve your pets.

    AUX power level and DOff affect not you pets but the power to spawn your pets.

    Ofcourse their is a single ecxeption Flightdeck DOff's that improve Carrier commands do indeed improve your pets under certain circumstances.
