I recently paid 50k for a Probot with +110 Medical Capability. My problem is that it doesn't seem to work. I tried to take the Bot out to buff someone yesterday and I got the message that I needed to be in a camp or med center to do that. The same message was received when I tried to heal someone's wounds. Am I doing something wrong or is the bot bugged? Thanks

If it won't follow any commands thedroid needs a new battery. I always try to group with my droid first to check to see if it's low on power.

I've seen bugged bots before just like this. However, try these things before you go off on the manufacturer - it might not be a bug at all.
I'd suggest taking a look at the droid in your datapad and make sure that the medical module is installed. If it is, it'll tell you the medical rating of the droid. If that's there and everything looks good, try healing some wounds or enhancing someone with it, but make sure that you're right next to the droid. If it gives you the error message, try inserting a new droid battery into the droid. Then, try again.
If you're still out of luck, I'd suggest giving the droid to another doc that you trust. Have him/her try it out and see what happens. If that doc can't heal with it, either, go back to the droid engineer that made it and see if you can get a new one.

I'll give that a shot, thanks. But doesn't the droid give some kind of message when the battery is shot?

Actually if you give it a command like group, follow, etc... it'll say *low power* above the droid if the battery needs to be replaced. That's why I always group with my droid before I use it to make sure the little clunker has power.

If you try to tell it a command like Follow or Group... you'll see Low Power drift off it's head... very small though and you have to be looking right at the droid too to see it.

Ahhh, thanks. I knew it gave you some sort of low battery message. I remembered that from my original Probot that I had way back when. Thanks for the help all. I'll remember to group the droid before each use.

Like the others said, it'll let you know when it's out of power when you issue a command, but, unless you issue it one, you're going to have a hard time catching it when it runs out. Generally, I take the "You must be in a campsite..." message to mean that I need to recharge my droid.

a 110 med droid increases the ammount that you heal for and the damage that your dots tick by. The exact margin im not sure, but its significant (maybe 110%?)
A storage module denotes the number of items you can store in your droid, but it caps at 10- so your 12 can hold 10 items, my 10 can hold 10 items, and my noob buddies 9 can only hold 9.
It is possible to have a combat/storage/med droid, this is what I use and its quite excellent for certain situations in both PvE and PvP.

it's only 15% and that's good for both buff duration and healing. but bivoli only adds to the buff duration and not healing for whatever the chef can make the food up to as far as a %.
