i have this same issues as some of you


after 2 kills with it, it just stops killing properly. what i mean is 150 to 200 damage per hit then after around 1 to 2 kills it drops down to 40 damage per hit. It started the otherday of the patch. If this is there version of working better then i hate to see what working badly is.

I've seen and heard from others having problems with their combat droid and bomb droids. I've suggested for all to do /bug when it happens.

Did Adv R3's HAM get nerfed?




Post-CU droid health got borked hardcore. Jenden's having the devs look into that and the armor issue.

Although one-hit wonders are not supposed to exist, I believe that Straker (Rascal) was correct - certain aspects are not balanced yet.

From a business standpoint that might be a good thing since i did small factory run of R3 Combat Droids not long before the upgrade (not an easy job), now i will charge 1mill for my Combat Droids with the 4410 HAM....JK =P. I really do hope they fix it, because if notthat pretty much makes Combat Droids useless and they were one of my "best sellers". Even with the 4410 HAM they aren't very good for "High Level" people, mainly just good for n00bs when hunting by theirself (was good for my DE [no fighting skills what-so-ever] when surveying and checking harvesters).


Thanx for the re: about that! I was curious if it was just me or aSOE

What do you mean your damage is different. Are you talking about the damage listed on the droid, or the damage the droid does?


The damage the Probot (or droid) does will change from fight to fight. If the level of what you are fighting changes, the droids damage dealt will change as well.


If you are talking the listed damage, you may have problem.


Please go into detail of what the problems are, that way Jenden can fight the good fight.

Hi i just bought an advanced combat probot, i was just testing it out hitting lvl 2-17 mobs. The probots combat rating is 525, that any good?


It was hitting lvl 17 humbabas on corellia for 163 dmg every second nearly, they were'nt fighting back at all. But then 2 out of the load of humbabasI attackeddid aggroe my droid and run up to it. As soon as the creature attacked my droid they were hitting it for 171 very often, looking at my combat records i could see my droids dmg output had dropped to 37 dmg instead of the 163 it had been doing to all the other lvl 17 humbabasand the speed had dropped considerably.


Is this intended due to my ranged droid getting put in mellee range and being attacked? Or as I expect a bug?





"When Sony and Lucas set out, we said, 'How can we do this and not make another EQ?' We didn't want it to be all about Luke, or combat, or lock our players into a class. So we created a system that would allow players to switch professions during the game, and there would be a lot of gameplay around making that change. If you want to go from architect to scout we've created a system to make that happen." - Julio Torres

ya i have the same problem but i dont think is has to do with going from range to melee, because i have tested it and it seems to randomly do it. ON the other hand i have noticed that when you driod drops below 80% power it happens more often. The other night it started around 72% power.


It almost reminds me of a power up with a new power up you can hit real hard for the 100 times the power-up is good for but as soon as the power up is used up you are right back to a sucky weapon, or in this case a sucky droid. As a mp and a mch i have reduced my probot to a target dummy for my pets. I let my driod take all the damage and let my pets deal out the damage and i come in as back up.


The probot i have is also a 525 comat rateing. I have gone threw 3 probots and 1 r2 and 1 r3 or r4comat droids all of them always end up with this problem. I can fight really good with the droid doing 160 to 180 on a mob no matter what kind of mob it is. Then halfway threw the fight or as the fight starts it drops down to 37. It was dropping down to 40 but lately it has dropped even further to 37.


i hope that helps a little more.
