Is it a bug that I can no longer energy drain an NPC or was this an intentional change that I missed somewhere?  Looked through the patch notes and other forum posts and I don't see anything about it.  Sure, it's not game breaking but it did add a boost when I was NPC hunting and the item text certainly doesn't give me the impression that this has been turned into a pvp only module.

Argano gets the geoscanner bonus also, if you don't a termis handy.  Bonus based on basic bots in case you don't have alot of points in advanced bots.

What difference does that make?
