Droid Engineer Archive

At master we now receive:-

100 Droid Assembly
100 Droid Experimentation
64 Droid Customization

Just thought I'd confirm the change does appear to be going into the next publish. No new schematics, and the droid repair kit isnt in the srtisan skill tree anywhere either.

Nice!

Thank you for the great info. Now if we could also do something with all those points I would be even happier. But it is certainly a step in the right direction.

Well, as I saw someone mention yesterday:

If they made experimentation effective FIRST, before giving us the points, that would be even worse. At least this way if/when experimenting has a real effect, we'll already have the points to spend on it.

Werd.

Oh this makes me so happy...

I can not wait to try it out. It will be a new challenge for us to see who can build the best droid possible with the best parts possible.

Well, now I'm glad I didn't grind away all of that high OQ steel and copper.

I can't wait for this to go live. 100 Droid Assembly... can you imagine?

Still confused... Let's say that we experiment on everything and make high quality parts for our droids... What will this do for the final product?

Nothing!

tbh I would rather they give us the experimentation and assembly bonuses first before they make a huge difference. Otherwise when they did implement it, the 1 or 2 people on each server that have all the skill tape bonuses will corner the market and make life impossible for all the other Droid Engineers...

Not nothing. It is a step in the right direction and it will lead to higher grade products. People who have crafting stations in thier droid will want better ones, i.e. we can sell more droids to our customers. And because of 100 assembly pts, I won't have to worry about crit fails on certain droidsusing a droid crafting station to build it (especially when the crafting station has 5 more experimentation pts to make a better one).

The bottom line is, at bestour final product will be better because all the pieces we put into it will be better. At worst, our profession is seriously getting looked at finally and fixes are starting to be made.

Cameo

Only reason this is being done is because archs are getting it. Similar if not the same code to change.

Any word yet on what happens if you do experiment on a droid? I am hoping we can now improve our probots and other droids?
