From the Test Center notes for 8/22


- Droid pets will suffer vitality loss the same as CH pets do (instead of permanent death)

I still disagree with their model. They have to completely redo the pet system. Datapad **edit** and vitality loss per death, is all wrong. Creature = Permadeath. Droids = Repairings, loss parts, rebuilding, fixing, not vitality loss. We do not follow ANY rules of organics.Our creationsare friggin inorganic.

Im sorry, any droid change listed under or follows same rules as Creature Handlers is a cop-out, and I feel still needs to be adressed. Vitality should not exist on a droid as it does a creature. Lazy programming,



So yes, No Droid Engineer issues were adressed. We want individuality, or else why be friggin droid engineers?!

yup, why write more code when you can use something that you already have.

Im sorry Lourkee.

To me, the fact that it says

THERES NO MORE DROID PERMADEATH.

Means a DE issue was addressed.

Sorry, you are wrong, deal with it.

I'm sorry, but I just disagree.


Although on one hand I am glad people are picking up the /cynic view, which for once I'm glad to give up, I have to say - this all rocks.


I'm NOT a cheer-leader, and this won't make my personal views of Holo (and his behavior) or the other Devs go away, BUT these changes are positive, bar none.


I didn't realize until this post that it was going in so quickly - as long as I can sell Probots again for less then chump-change, I'm all frickin' set.

Yall have every right to be pissed off. But this one issue is still a good one don't you think?


I mean, I am very excited about it. Now I will buy tons of probots and droids for me and my guildmates, since we can use them instead of having to take creature handler.


This should boost your business significantly right?


I for one hope to be very successful at bounty hunting, and in turn, making my favorite DE's quite rich as well
