Droid Engineer Archive

Well, it seems we are at a vergence in the force again! Has anyone else noticed that the droid armor is no longer as good as it was?

I have a probot with 40% resists and Medium armor.. Now normally this droid can take a great beating from a narglatch.. Now today, this narglatch, beat my droid into total submission, handed all his peices and a roll of duct-tape to me and said sorry.. Then he proceeded to work on my krevol who only had 20% resist, and light armor. Now he met his match..

See a problem with this picture?????????

40% resists to all damage types and Medium armor should equal a pretty tough droid/tank
30% resist to heat and kinetic, and 10% to restraint, blast and energy should not be as good of a tank as the probot.

But my droid only lasted for about 50% of the Narglatches health.. then the bug lasted the remaining 50%, and only had about 300 points missing...

Ok lets look on the bright side..

We got Customization tools......umm.. Ok... I guess...
We can heal our droid...........ummm.. Ok .... Maybe NOT...
We can still make crafting droids....umm.. Ok... Public crafting droids now....
We can put multiple crafting stations into one..... Ummm.. BROKE.....
Datapads with 150 capable items can hold waypoints.... Ummm.. Ok maybe not again..
(Who has 150 schematics anyway??)

Wow... I'm really beginning to enjoy being a Master Droid Engineer.......Ummmm.. Ok...

I find it really hard to believe that droid code is so difficult that after 3 major patches the only thing we gained was droid customization tools....

If they use the same system code that pets do then it should have been extremely easy for them to introduce healing our droids.. Instead the tool gets totally removed.. That's a good one! promise us the ability to heal the white bar, and then don't deliver.. Fantastic..... Ummmmm.. NOT.

Sorry guys, just getting pretty darn tired of being over looked. I don't believe there has been a patch yet that hasn't broke the DE profession in some way or another.. It's just down right crazy...

Did you /examine the Probot before you sent it into battle? There is a known bug that Probots sometimes come out with vulnerabilities to damage types, instead of the 40% resists to all. If your Probot came out with a vulnerability, that means NO armor, so the 820 HAM prolly dropped like a rock.
