I don't know what they were originally for and i don't know what they will some day be for, but right now i use them for the following:

1. take out BLL droid
2. Set droid to follow random PC (groupmate, guy at the bazaar, whatever)
3. See how long it takes them to figure out that they're being stalked.

It's a cheap thrill, but i still find it entertaining on occassion

I've just started doing this to any CHs or Imperials that I see running through town with Large creatures, or AT-STs, walking behind them.

Actually there are 1 kinds of people (1 = those who do, 0 = those who don't).

I laughed out loud (at work) when I read this. I have a great cartoon (can't remember the source). It's a guy sitting in front of a monitor full of zeroes and ones. The keyboard has three keys "0" "1" and "Enter". The caption reads "Reall programmers code in binary."

Man I wish they did lift boxes of 0 and 1. It'd be a great improvement.

So far my best (and only) use for a BLL has been to have one named 'USELESS-Please-fix-DE' and have it either follow me or patrol while I do other things. It has gotten a lot of LOLs, and a few inquiries as to what is useless about it, but its better than nothing.

I was talking to a master droid engineer, and I asked him if you could use a binary load lifter to attack. He said you can, but they always run away. So I asked him what you use a lifter for, and he said there is no use. Well, since I thought it would be cool to own a lifter, I asked him how much it costs for one. His asking price? 200,000 for standard and 300,000 for Advanced! So, you want that much money for a droid that does nothing? I understand they are complicated and expensive, but they can't be worth that much. Especially since they only have 50 attack and 1200 HAM, with 40%resist and medium armor. You're selling probots with nearly the same stats but only cost 17k. So, I wanted to ask other DE's how much they are charging for load lifters and if they think this guys price is reasonable. Thanks.

It really depends on the server. And to a point, planet and even area. On Ahazi, I have seen them from 50k to 130k.
