Droid Engineer Archive

If you want the droid for NPC BH Missions, then I'd suggest a Probot with a medical module added. Against level 81-82 targets my R3 was collapsing after a relatively short while. Howver with a probot on "guard" mode, I can kite targets, have the healing bonus AND get the probots ranged attack going, which is the equivalent of a bleed I guess

From a BH perspective, I wouldn't put a Detonation module in it - the droid is unusable and removed from your datapad after its blown up.

Check the list of DE Shops by location in the stickies to find a DE in your galaxy

If you have DE on your server who stocks with good stuff then you can just by. However, before I become a DE one of the things I hated was looking at a droid on a vender and it says nothing about how well it was crafted then buying it and calling to my data pad and finding out it was junk.

Thing is how the droid is build does make a difference. Most DE will say this is bull and that resources and lvl or modules makes no differce. Some even put in a single lvl 4 armor module becuase it will look the same.

My main is MBH and I have tested both crap droids and quality droids with him many of times. What you put into a droid does not show when looking at it but does make a difference in combat proformace.

If you want something that can tank there are two routes

1) Well make R-3 (the above post must have had a crappy one) then ask for these modules.

1 combat module with a 110 combat rating

1 lvl 6 medical module with a 12 rating and 14 quality... will come out 110 healing effiency

2 lvl 6 armor modules with 12 rating and 14 quality

4 auto-repair moduleswith no less then 23 rating on each one

2) Probot

same as above but will only hold 3 auto-repair modules

For pvp the R-3 does kinetic and probot does energy and the R-3 will out damage the probot by about 20 pts per shot against battle armor or jedi and more vs recon which adds up (probot better choice if going agaist assualt armor for damage)

ALSO !!! ALWAYS !!! GROUP YOUR DROIDS IF YOUR COMBAT LVL IS ABOVE 30 THEY WILL GET YOU COMBAT LVL AND IT MAKES A HUGE DIFFERENCE!!!

Ingame stats vs a lvl 81 19k health white chervon boss (with my lvl 80 bh)

not grouped 61 damage before armor

grouped 178 dmage before armor

Example other way with my crafter (using my droid to guard me while at bazaar)

lvl 18 npc

grouped got killed in 10 hits

not grouped killed npc in 2 shots

So both show that it gets the combat lvl of the person it groups with

Yeah I am or corbantis or would make you one.

Also for NPC's always attack first, then after you hit the npc tell your droid to attack.

The npc (assuming BH missions) will attack what hit it first... and if you hit first it will not attack your droid which means you donot have to heal it. etc.

Ok, I think I know what I want, but should I get a DE to craft exaclty what I want, or just keep looking on vendors and hope I can read the titles correctly?

This is what I would like in a droid.....tell me if I am dreaming.

-Need droid that enhances my heals..... 110 medical healing?

-Would also like it to have a high combat level (capable of tanking?)

Now, if I wanted this droid to be detonatable, would that take away from the healing and combat levels?

Also, a price check would determine if I am going to want to blow up my droids.
