ROFLMAO





LOL, that's a great way to start the day


Ok, so it just seems to be Dark Troopers? Anything else?

Nova's too, but I think they're only on the Corvette now. I use area poisons on the Corvette (great way to get killed BTW) and it only affect the Black Hole Troopers (or whatever the weaker ones are called).

I haven't managed to find any stormies since (busy crafting...)


But that day I was unable to poison *any* imperial npcs -- white armored stormies, grey-clothed officers, anything. Hopefully tonight or tomorrow I'll go try again... I really hope they're not all robots now :/

I poisoned ordinary grunt imps on Gorath today... so they work just fine. I'll have to check by the weapons facililty if given time tomorrow to see if the Darks are robotic.

Anyone on Gorath willing to sell me 30K of Yavinian fiberplast? (a decent spawn preferably)? Gamemail Rennec

I was able to poison regular stormies. The DTs were the problem. I was able to get a bleed to stick, but only when I used an enhanced E11 to do it.Bleed specials didn't work. I don't think the DOT weapons can apply DOTs to droids, otherwise it does seem like they are coded as droids.

Alright folks, here's the scoop, straight from the Developers:



TH:






The restriction is due to the fact that they (Dark Trooper Nova Troopers and not all Nova Troopers)are droids. Additionally it is intended that you cannot throw a poison or disease at an invalid target such as a droid or vehicle.






So there ya go

Does this mean we will get Computer Viruses in the upcomingrevamps?


Or will we just have to deal with Droid Troopers in the same way as everyone else?
