Thread: Droidsmith toolkit needs changed!

Possibly the person who created this thought the part was still in game. If we vote to change this to something we can loot,maybe they will consider it.
No, it was just plain laziness on the coder's part. They copied the schematic for the weaponsmith's toolkit, (a weapon repair kit is required) and replaced it with a droid repair kit, and didn't even bother to check if they were still in the game. Internal QA should have tested it and seen that they could not make the Droidsmith's Toolset, given there is no droid repair kit either craftable or lootable.
And as for changing it to a loot item, that's not a good idea. There is already a rare loot item needed (the heavy duty clasps). It needs to be something DE-craftable, or Artisan Craftable to put it in line with the other limited use schematics of this type.
I know this thread was only started yesterday, but n'Jessi, is there ANY word from the Devs on this?
I have Droid Engineers clawing at my door, screaming for these things...I also have all the other items required to make them (and that's no small cost for the clasps!). Perhaps they can just remove the requirement of the repair tool from the schematic, so everyone can be happy?
I'm just wondering if we even have a timeline for when this will be fixed, since it's already been this way for some time...=(
Amen to that.

HAHAHAHA
Oh my! I just got scanned for my first time. LK-300 was very polite and I came away clean. Then I look at his companion next to him. TK-421!
I'm not going to say there is any kind of conspiracy or anything...
I really didn't mean to flame. I was just a bit disappointed.
Ackdel, I invite you to go back and look at TK's post history. He's far from a Dev yes-man. He's simply attempting to keep the forums positive, as a correspondent. He was nominated almost unanimously by his fellow DE's. He'll go to bat for us, believe me.

I'm a brand new Droid Engineer, almost master, and I'm new to this part of the forums. Does our correspondent always seem like such a complacent Developer yes-man? That can't be good for us...
Ok...so the question is...was there anything really game breaking with the old Droid Repair Tool?
If not, couldn't the Devs just reinstate the ability for us to craft them temporarily just so we can use them in the Schematic while they fix the issue of the schmatic requirements? We all know they don't work, but it would be nice to be able to make the toolkits.
/agree
I feel that the way things are set up now is totally unfair. Unless I have millions of dollars for this obsolete part, SOE is telling me that I don't deserve one.
