Romulan Drone Ship Abilities

I was in two Klingon fleet alerts, I also parsed them. In the first the drones did not even once use fire at will or beam overload (advanced drones). In the second faw was like 10% of the dmg their normal beams did (elite drones). Before the patch their faw was always higher in my parses than the normal beam array dmg. Would be nice to hear what other people experience with drones since the patch.

Also they get replaced when you launch new ones.

Edit: I might want to add: It could simply be a bug with the log, maybe the sips are fine and it simply does not show properly in the log.

    Ok update: I just went into a private challenge with a friend and observed the pet behavior.

    The seem to try to use beam overload. They do have the overload buff but despite firing their beam the overload never triggers. They have the overload buff for 30 sec and when its gone they refresh it. Despite still having the overload buff they try to use faw. They do have the faw and the overload buff at the same time but neither triggers. They only use their normal arrays.

    Having a simular issue with Advanced Tholian Mesh Weavers: I did a foundry mission and when I st launched them they would fire once and either fly around my ship or just disappear as if docked. I had it set on attack. When I would re launch wouldnt even fire at enemy

    Likewise, my Elite Drone ships had no damage from FAW or Overload dealt.

    Just a little bump in the hopes someone reads this thread. The romulan drones are severely reduced in their effectiveness due to this bug. I do not expect an instant fix, but a team is investigating or some other indication that the devs are aware of the problem would be nice :)
