Results from the test center said you had to be on the same server boundry, as soon as you cross it the droid goes back into your datapad.


Can someone please confirm / deny ?

This droid should continue to bark ads if you fly about the same planet or travel to another planet. (04/16: Thanks for the update on this, DocSavage!!). In addition, when the droid gets into a low power state the ad barking is turned off. Once you recharge the droid you have to manually enable the barking again.



Check out the rest of that topic too.

Do you have advertising IV?


You must have Advertising IV, or the options will not appear to you.

I've noticed that if I leave my pets/droids out and take the shuttle to another location, the pets/droids remain where I left them. If I try to ride off on a speeder, they automatically store. I've had pets and a droid out on Naboo while I'm crafting on Tattooine...

Umm i thought the whole point was to allows the droid to bark. If the person needs to be master merchant or ad 4 then the droid truly sucks. I made about 20 of these and sold 12 and now im getting my arse chewed out because nodoy can use it unless you have ad 4.



Thanks for the new **edit** up.

Try setting the droid some patrol points, then riding off on your speeder. Haven't had a chance to test this myself, but I thought I remember reading somewhere that patrolling is the trick.

On TC the merchant had to stay in the same area as the droid which did not make it very useful. Is this how it work now that it went live? I know they made some changes but could not find an answer to this one. Basically can I set a droid in Bestine and then head over to AH or do other stuff while he is out and about ?
