Did you use the combat cluster or the general cluster? I was hoping to make a complete Entertainer droid with all 6 modules but it sounds like that it isn't working.


Anyone made and tested a harvesting or trap tossing droid yet?

My experience so far:

Combat Droid: All droids were experimented on to 98% using some super fiberplast(9xx in OQ, SR, UT)

Probot: HAM appears to max out at about 3200

DZ70: HAM appears to max out at 3200, only one I have field tested, took out a paralope lair and did not break a sweat.

R3: HAM appears to max out at 4500

LE: HAM appears to max out at 6000!!!

I found some small amounts of crappy Tolium. Will try the detonations with my smuggler alt later. Should be fun.

Update: My house seems to have eaten my exploding mouse droids. Maybe they will reappear when I log on as my alt but they vanished for me.

Plan on trying my barker droid later. I made a realization about these though. Now that protocols can be colored whats to stop people from putting their barker droid with waypoint right beside the ticket droid and coloring it the same color? No one would be able to check the shuttle time with 50 identical barker droids right there. Yeah I know, wont be that many.

What damage min/max and attack speed values did you get on the probot, DZ70, R3, and LE?

Anyone tried to make harvesting scout droids? Curious if they need to be grouped with the owner to collect creature resources.

Made some mouse bombs today with varring quality of tolium gas.


The other resources were common in the three crafts and were: Copper 999Con/999OQ, Inert Gas 958 OQ.


These were Adv MSEs, so they'd max out at 40.



Craft 1: Tolium OQ of 974 gave a Detonation Rating of 39.



Craft 2: Tolium OQ of614 gave a Detonation Rating of 37.


Craft 3: Tolium OQ of84 gave a Detonation Rating of 35.

An MSE "Mouse Bomb" did about 650 to a player with and without armour, and 550 to someone wearing composite.

Structure Maint Module works a dream, take droid oin your first harvy run, target a structure and /assign and choose your droid, this stores the details on the droid.
The droid stores a nice list of your structures with locations (never lose a harvy again ).
You can then program a maintenance run, choosing which structures to top up (each shows current maint level in the UI), and enter the cash to put in it.
The one I made took 30mins to return from topping up 2 structures, but the maint was added instantly. It appears to use all the droids charge in one use.
I had 2 total lockups when adding structures to the droid.

Entertainer module : these rock, though put your particle level up first , MSE playing one effect every 10 secs was on 40% power after an hour or so.

Harvester module, MSE droids struggle to keep up with a player (no suprise there really ) but work fine

Can anyone verify that a harvester module rated 100+ gives a bonus to harvesting? If it does, I'm never going scouting w/out one again.

Obbo,

Me being the complete bonehead that I am completely missed the Tolium shift that just happened (the 84oq shift)
Did you get a lot of it?
Want to part with 100k of it?
The difference between 35 and 37 isn't that much.

Pretty please? hehe

Pre Publish 8 DEEDS are not coming out with higher HAMs. And of course. Pre-publish 8 readied droids did not get a boost.



Pre Publish 8 DEEDED droids DO get a higher damage that the ones that are readied.

Bump. Yes I also require knowledge about the harvesting droid. Thank you DE community for documenting this feature for SOE.

Okay, I put 3 entertainer effect modules into a cluster, but the cluster won't work with ANY of the droids. Whats the deal?? Any help is appreciated.






you might have to use the combat socket, not sure if that is what you used or not.


I have not had time yet to try it.

Sorry mate. I've only got 100k of it myself and that may have to last me a while.


My guild mate that was testig them was well impressed with them, so they may be selling well.

What about deeds that are still in crates? I'm at work.

Thanks anyways
If you know anybody who has at least 100k please tell them to email me.
I am so mad at myself for not mining it.
I thought that since it was 84oq it would make completely crappy modules.
ugh, I suck.
