Maybe I'm alone on this, but I hate these things. I do not find these things fun to deal with. They just feel like an pesky annoyance and I believe the game would be better off without them. EDIT: I guess I should do proper feedback and explain why I dislike them. Despite their lightweight nature and constant peppering of low dps, they are unnecessarily bullet spongey if you don't have any explosive or area damage options on you. You have to make the choice between spending extra time and ammo to knock out the drones first, then you can shoot them, or you can shoot them directly and the drones chase you to self-detonate on impact. You can't crit while they have drones, so either way, if you lack area of effect damage (or perhaps a high rpm), you just have to spend extra time and ammo to take them out. If I could re-work them, I would make the drones have aim assist, but the core have none, making it really hard to hit the core, but easy to hit the drones. If you manage to take out the core before the drones, instead of going to you, they spread out and attack everything nearby, friend or foe. I would also allow overkill damage on the drones to spread evenly amongst the others (i.e. if you kill one with something like an auto rifle, you'll likely need to hit them all, but hitting one with a bow will probably knock the rest down to half).
