Does anyone sell these? If so for how much I see them going for around 1200-1500cr. Is that about the going rate? Also could someone please explain to me what they actually do so when I try to sell them to a BH I can tell them the facts about them.

They are used for BH missions. The seekers take a DMA sample of the "mark" and report back the location. This is done in steps where the BH eventually closes in on the mark. Typically, several seekers are used for one mission.


I sell seekers for 1k, arakyds for 2k and I sell them by the crate. They have 5 and 10 charges each respectively. Some DE's make a very good living on BH droids, but others, like me, rarely sell them.

I sell my Seekers in crates of 5, for 5,000cr and Arakyd probe droids individually for 2,300cr. The Seekers have 10 uses each and the Arakyd's 5 uses each.


I get some business off my vendor, but not much. I seem to sell more droids as furniture than for droid functions.

Good to hear people sell them, because as a BH, I can never find them stocked.

I sell my seekers at 575 per 10, and the arakyds at 650 per 5. It is less than what most people charge, but I am still making a profit, so I'm happy.

Seekers/Arakyds are a terrible source of income, because, as you make a revenue, you are expending expensive extrusive ore and a ton of electronics components. which is copper, chem, gas, low grade ore, it just adds up way too fast for the 700cr per seeker set you can expect, at least on my server

because since bounty humter missions pay so low, bounty hunters are pretty cheap customers. plus holo-DEs are skewing things, as are noobs who want to augment their income with some fast cash from cheap BH droids
