You definitely can separate build from deploy:

Check [http://docs.drone.io/cli-deploy/](http://docs.drone.io/cli-deploy/)

It works that way :

Everytime a build is successfull and you want to promote it to an environment, you can trigger a deploy event ( by filtering with `event: deployment` so not every builds deploys ) from the CLI.

You can also trigger the deploy event from any tool able to submit a deploy hook to your VCS provider ( eg for github : [https://developer.github.com/v3/repos/deployments/#create-a-deployment](https://developer.github.com/v3/repos/deployments/#create-a-deployment) )
