That's a reasonable explanation of the bug. Very well then, I'll remove the exploit flag.

Please do come back and tell us if this is indeed fixed once pub 7 goes live so I can remove the bug completely.

There is no way round this for Bounty Hunters other than stop using Seekers entirely which means they can't track their marks, complete missions, complete the Investigation tree or master their profession.

Publish 7 will fix this and Seekers will work as intended.

There is a very easy way around it: just delete the seeker after the last charge is used, instead of using it indefinitely.

But calling it out as an exploit when the game practically makes you do it is a little harsh. Glad it will be fixed (hopefully)

Yep, that's a possibility, I hadn't thought of that.

The only problem is keeping track of how many times you've used it. Seekers have 10 uses per droid; at Investigation 3 none of the 10 charges depletes when you use it so they always look just as they did when you first got them out of the crate.

Although, this has been implemented intentionally to help out with an annoying Bounty Hunter droid speed bug. As you go up the Investigation tree your marks move around a lot faster so droids are supposed to report back faster. Instead, they report back slower (making a novice Bounty Hunter better at tracking a mark than a master) so the Bounty Hunters would have to use crate after crate of seekers to track a target.

I know that's not much consolation to us DE's who may rely on Seeker sales to earn a living, but this has been promised to be fixed come Publish 7.

It's ok Gorantoth. You can come out of hiding. You can update the list.

A. Droids deeds no longer have Tame as an option

B. Repair Modules now fuction in a Power Droid and Humanoid Droids

C. The Droids no longer suck batteries, like no Tomorrow

Heh... I'm just getting around to updating the list now that I've had a chance to play with things.

Gorantoth, the Seeker bug still hasn't been fixed it seems.

Not that my alt would be using many anyway, the promised fix to Jedi droid tracking hasn't worked for myself and a vast majority of Bounty Hunters.

Gorantoth, if you would, please add the fact that the Droidsmith's Toolset limited use schematic cannot be crafted with items currently attainable in-game. It's not technically a Droid Engineer issue (as they are not DE-craftable), but it effects DE's directly.

Excuse me Gorantoth,

Would you consider adding the ability to call two droids as a Master Droid Engineer to the wish list?

I think lots of DE's support this idea. I can think of only 1 possable expliot.....

--the potential MDE and MCH combo--

*solutions*

1. maybe it should be ok if a player wants to earn that combo???

2. if it's not ok, then Put a check in the system that stops that extra Droid/Creature from being called.
