You're right Orb...the combat droid revamp is going to be mildly crippled in Pub 18. The effort was encouraging, but they didn't quite get there. Look at droids having the following:

* CL 30
* Max damage of around 284
* Max health of 3742
* Armor Effectiveness of up to 9000

Sounds pretty rockin', huh? Well, there's an armor bug. It will show the AE correctly on its first call, but at the second call it will drop to about 1217. That's an old bug which apparently resurfaced and they are refusing to fix.

I was looking at the DE forums, and now there's something about all pre-pub 18 droids going to CL 0 and not being able to learn attack commands? sounds pretty harsh over there :/.



There's a few cases that the CL is getting lowered (mainly with existing droids that weren't built with combat modules, and combat droids that were already on vendors), but for the most part it's working as intended. All the probots on my vendor (placed this morning) call fine and work as expected. I'm mainly fuming about the AE break...

That is good to hear but for the rest of the DE's and their customers they are in a world of hurt.

How can your customer tell for instance that yours are the "working" ones unless you put up a sign.
As you know there are not many signs in this game.
