====== Light Drone Bunny Guide (DDD) =====

Light drone bunny is one of three drone bunny roles that our fleets require on a daily basis. It is a fun and challenging role. 
As DDD you get to fly with a dual web, receive priority Remote Tracking Links and Remote Sensor Boosters (RESEBOs). 
On top of this you are allowed to position yourself so as to be able to optimally remove the Sansha frigate menace from the grid!

===== Which Drones will I Receive? =====
  * Logi assign their light drones (usually Warriors) to you
  * If carrying light drones, battleships are allowed to assign them to either you or the HHH/SSS.

===== Kill Order =====
**Acronym:** NRSET

  * Full Fleet Targets (FC discretion but usually Arnon/Outuni/Vylade)
  * **N**iarja
  * **R**enyn
  * **S**chmaeel
  * **E**ystur
  * **T**ama

**In TCRCs:**
  * Niarja is always the priority target, kill it as soon as you can
  * When there is no Niarja, kill untagged Schmaeels.
  * When both Niarja and all Untagged Schmaeels are cleared, shoot the tower
  * The Niarja will periodically respawn, as soon as it respawns kill it, then switch back to other targets (Schmaeels/Tower)
  * Do **NOT** kill Renyns!

**On the NRF 3rd Wave:** Please shoot the Maras, if there are more than one, please shoot the bleeding one first.

===== Fit =====
The optimal fit for the advanced vindicator is the dual web fit. You should carry a mobile depot with the replacement mods if you intend to regularly DDD.

Please make the following changes to the advanced Vindicator to fit for DDD:
  * Remove 1x Tracking Computer
  * Add 1x True Sansha Stasis Webifier
  * Remove 2x Drone Damage Amplifier
  * Attach 2x Republic Fleet Tracking Enhancer (or T2)
  * **Note:** Federation webs are no longer allowed.

==== Ammo ====
We **highly recommend** using **Faction Antimatter L** when acting as DDD, e.g. **Caldari Navy Antimatter L**. Void L has a significant tracking penalty which makes it very difficult to use for shooting fast moving targets such as frigates. If you have maxed out skills and feel comfortable being able to clear frigates at a rate that does not slow the fleet down then you may use Void L instead.

===== Tips =====
  * When possible choose your targets so that there is minimal distance between subsequent targets (less travel time for drones)
  * Manually re-cycle your guns often, this will make sure drones are aggressing if recently assigned.
  * When killing full fleet targets, and the ship you are shooting reaches armor switch to the next target to get the most damage from your drones.
  * As the drone bunny, you do not have to follow your anchor, please ensure you are always within 35km of the AAA so that you are within logi rep range. For newly respawning waves you should position yourself halfway between the Vindi/Sniper anchors so that regardless of which fleet member the frigates target you will be within range.

===== TPPH Third Room =====
In the 3rd room of a TPPH, you must ensure that your drones are always shooting the last Osti as it dies, this is extremely important as it ensures that the drones will not be assessed as a high threat by the newly spawning wave and targeted.

If you are quick, you may succeed in clearing the entire frigate wave before all the Ostis dies, either way, simply ensure that when there's only one Osti on grid, all of the drones assigned to you are engaging it.
