I'll put them in another droid occasionally. I figure, if it's considered an exploit, then a CSR will ask me what I'm doing, and at least that means they know it shouldn't be that way and might fix it. I don't do it all the time, as it'd be resource intensive to put 3 level 6 modules in every slot I can put a module in.

Well a 2-1B Surgical Advanced at least. It calls for the Cluster, not individual modules...

Since we can assume that nesting them inside each other is a bug...and the slots in a general module cluster are the same as a standard socket in a non-cluster droid...it's probably safe to assume that it's a bug to be able to place clusters in non-cluster slots?

However, that's working off the assumption that nesting them is a bug

I know that general module socket clusters can be installed in any droid module socket. Setting aside the nesting exploit, is putting one in anything besides an R2 or R3 droid a bug? I mean, is it something that's likely to be fixed, rendering droids that were built with clusters that shouldn't have been, broken?

Basically, is it "safe" to put a general module socket cluster in anything besides an R2 or R3?

Good question, I'm not sure we've ever received clarification on that issue (or most others).

This is a very good question, and one I would also like the answer to.

I don't stack cluster modules, but I do use them.

I would hate to have every droid that I have sold for the past few weeks suddenly cease to work (and no, I don't sell MSE's - I hate them.)

I just reached 3/0/0/3 in DE and have a question regarding socket clusters. It looks like they can hold 3 service module harness so what would be the max storage capacity if I use 3 lvl 4 storage modules or what would the med healing be if I used 3 lvl 4 med modules? The FAQ's stickied at the top says you can stack 2 lvl 4 modules to get the effect of one lvl 6 module. So if I put 3 lvl 4 modules in a cluster I suppose I am wasting one module??

Can you pleaseprovide some guidance. I just got 3/0/0/3 before I logged off last and am anxious to try this out when I get home from work tonight.

Yes, that would be a waste... SOE has hard capped item storage at 10 items, no matter what the configuration, number, or quality of modules you use.

10 items in a droid, period.
