Thread: Poll: Would you rather DE got removed for 3 months to be fixed or slow fix over 9 months?

You know, IF they moved DE skills all into the artisan proffession, and turn DE into the new Droid commander then I'm all for it ;D
Since I actually became a DE in the 1st place to control droids as my pet instead of this crafting thing they turned us into.
They didn't 'turn us into' a crafting profession. DE has always been a crafting profession. Saying that you took it so you could control droids is like saying you took up Weaponsmith so you could wear armor.

Wrong.
I took up DE to have cheap probots originally..when they were worth something. Since then its been nerf after nerf. Sadly along the line I began to love droids, and now look where it has left me.
This profession has always been Hybrid..just not much.
Your analogy is completely false.

This is one of those "Be careful what ya ask for.." situations. With the track record we've had, if they took it out, they might not feel like putting it back.
No, they had a pretty good idea on what they wanted to do with it, it just doesn't fit at all in the current game.
BLL is an exemple : As I remember the description I've seen somewhere, it is pretty clear what's the use of it: it is required to build space shuttles.
Hmm Kollos, I did say 'not much' of a hybrid.
What other crafting profession can use it's own products for offensive combat (at circa the FWG5 level currently) without any form of certification or additional skillpoint expenditure? The fact that we can make them (relatively) very cheaply does matter in this respect.
I said 'not much' because I acknowledge it is a weak argument, but it does make us uniquely hybrid, however slightly.
I do, however, take your points.

My vote would be to take it out... who cares if they don't put it back in we are a usless trade anyway.
As I have said in other posts I see NO big deal if it were taken out. What would be missing from the game... hummm ya some medics would be upset if they did not already have there droids, and no more mse mouses for storage, oh and crafters would not be able to do mobile crafting... then again if we knew they were going to remove the field for a 3 month fix I am sure there are more than enough of us with deeds that could keep a supply going for several months.
