Thread: Is the Advanced R3 the only droid you make?

With the exception of probots (for combat), is there any reason to make anything except an advanced R3 since it can hold the highest number of modules (6)?

I make a hell of a lot of R2s as people want ones that look like R2-D2. Also people that want a cheaper version of the models I do, choose R4s fairly often.

I make tons of Combat LE's and actually sell them for MORE than my Combat R3's. The reason being is that the LE's have more HAMand TANK better. It helps the hologrinders who often find themselves at the low end of a combat profession. Having a tank allows them to get that XP quicker. People buy all these too. They usually go faster than my R3's.


Some others are:



  • ADV Protocol droids with Merchant Barker and Item Storage

  • ADV DZ-70 with 110 Medical and Food/Chem Crafting Station

  • ADV MSE Detonation Droids, by the crate

  • ADV R2 with all 4 crafting stations and 10-item storage

Well if I was ever to actually crate a chassis. The R3 would be it. Its certainly the most versatile. Just about anything you want will fit best into an R3. I like to have a chassis or two when a guildy puts in an order. Its an automatic fit.


For combat though I prefer Probots, (they fit my vision of how combat droids should work best) or the LE. LE like said above is the best tank. In fact I just built one with max armour, combat mods, and an auto repair mod. I wanna see how long it can last without me having to heal it.


Ive been having a hoot building the DZ70's. I plop a few modules in em then plop them on the bazaar. They seem to be selling well and I have a 1000 OQ steel I use in the final build and they end up 100% experimented on. Its nice to know I've actually reached max HAM on a chassis.

The advanced R3 isn't the only one, but does make up the majority of my sales.

ADV R3


ADV R2


Probot


LE repair



In that order, that's the request I get for droid models. Now why people want more probots than LE's I can't quite figure out, but yes R3s are the best sellers.

You are not American or English are you? LOL..that is kewl. Foreigners are always to my liking.


When you select "Program" from your droids menu, there will be an option for "Attack" if your droid has that ability. Then you tell it what you want to say for it to attack, like "a" for example. Then anytime you select a would-be enemy and type "a" the droid will attack; battery permitting of course.

Think of it as setting up a Hotkey. Setting it up doesn't actually cause it to do what you want the hotkey does. You must set up the hotkey & then use it. So: Program->Attack...then you should see a "?" above the droid. Type "a" (or whatever you want, "Attack" "Kill" "Sick-Balls-Chomper" HEHE, minus the quotations of course). Then you should see a "!" above the droid. That means it was programmed. Now in the CTRL+D datapad, under Misc. You will see your droid. Click examin or the button above the items that looks kind of like this: <0> this will expand your window to examine without clicking examine...hehe. Anyhow, the examine part will tell you the commands programmed into the droid.

For me, usually I stock specialty R3's and Probots in my vendor, with the occasional LE. I tend to make the other chassis on special orders. Some of my favorites:

- R3 Droid, Entertainer Model (all six effects modules)
- R3 Droid, Combat Model, Tank Edition (One combat module and five auto-heal modules)
- R3 Droid, Combat Model (All combat modules)
- R3 Droid, First Aid Model (Stimpack module, food/chem station, item Storage, data storage, MCR 110)
