Thread: Droids that go boom!
before I go make any rash ranting and screaming like a commando who sat on his FT barrel.

Added Detonation Module to the DE skill tree: This module grants Bounty Hunters and Smugglers the ability to destroy his droid causing damage to every enemy target nearby. The destruction is ordered by the /detonateDroid command or via the droid's radial menu.
Actually, Hellshot and I did some pretty extensive testing and found various ways this new weapon can be exploited...Some of those results were posted over the weekend at:

I have also posted a couple of extensive testing result findings on the Correspondent forum asking for a Dev response ASAP...I will probably be reposting what I just posted over there on our forum soon in case anyone is interested...
I am being cautious from over-posting the ways this new weapon can be exploited to try and slow down the word of this getting out (everyone will be grabbing Novice Smuggler to exploit these bad boys)...I've already seen a couple of posts in various forums talking about rumored exploits, but they haven't caught all of them yet...I'm sure they will soon though...I can tell you, of all the weapons in game right now...of all the Exploits...this one has NERF written all over it...I'm not calling for a NERF, I just can't see the devs letting these exploits last too long...
