Yes, droids do heal in the datapad.. Probably since they changed CH pets to do so and ended accidentaly giving us a benifit of it

Ya, as I said I wasn't 100% sure on it, since I've been hearing mixed reports from some of my customers. I usually have a Probot out with me at all times, when in the field, so I've not had the chance to test is out completely. Thats kind of how being a DE is sometimes. You end up learning about issues from everyone else, because you are too busy answering everyone elses questions or grinding out special orders. Thanks for the info. Makes my job a bit easier now..../chuckle

I have an offer on the table from a master Droid eng to sell me 4 probots for 40k. they have the 110 med modules + a med crafting station. Medium armor and 40% resists with 820 health. Is this normal? Uber? sucky? Price right?


good price, i sell those for 13k each


Much more important then this I'm geting 4 for 2 char to each have 2 so I can store one while it heals itself etc etc. Am I wasteing my time and money? Should I wiat for a week or 2 till teh devs fix certian issues like experimenting?


no, having multiples is smart at least 2...


Don't tell me to buy them just cause you want to see a droid guy get paid. I'm buying 2 of them reguadless cause I NEED the medic abilitys. My real question is should I gear up fully buying 4-6 of them or should I go low budget and wiat for the "good stuff"?


there may be no combat droid better for a while...


Is advanced probot better? If so by how much and what special mats do I need to get him to make them???


that is an adv probot. a normal probot doesnt get any modules (like craft stations, medical ratings..ect...)


Hope that helps

Just remember that dev 'fixes' dont ever seem to be applied to existing game items (only those items created after the fix) so buying droids with a view to selling them on once (if) they get 'fixed' is probably not an option.

What Arden doesnt realise (youre on Eclipse right Arden?) is I'm buying the 3K Probots and selling them on at 15k - granted they dont sell fast, but they do sell, and I have plenty of haggle room in there as well :-)
