Thread: About droid death
Ok...I need all the DEs that have FIRST HAND experience with this to speak up not those that THINK they know or have read what has been posted.
I built an adv probot AFTER the patch. This is KEY. These droids have to be built after the patch. I purposely tried to get him killed to test the armor and the perma death. I noticed that he had a new stat called vitality which was 100. I got my probot killed, mind you after about 2-3k worth of damage, and he disappeared. I looked in my datapad and he was there but his vitality had been lowered to 98 or so and his overall HAM was lowered to 809 out of 825.
I have been hearing a lot of ppl saying perma death this and perma death that. Make sure you are talking about newly built, post-patch droids. I see every one of my new droids with vitality and I ask each of my customers to let me know about the perma death issue. I haven't heard a peep from anyone yet about their droids perma death since patch.
DEVS....WHAT IS THE RULE HERE?!?!? WHAT IS VITALITY and VITALITY PACKS?!?!? - as if typing in all caps makes them *hear* me better 
If you weren't dead, and your bot stuck around, it's a bug.

Well you could try typing with the xx-large font size.
Or you could Use Color.
Or Both
Or if you were really good you could use
Oversized textJ
But as for your main point, sorry I don't know much about the permadeath thing.
OMG...LOL...that was too funny. No I didn't die but the droid was off my screen because I was running and screaming like a schoolgirl. I will test again today. I really need to confirm this because everyone is asking and no one that I have talked to on my server that I have sold NEW bots to can confirm they are perma death. I will post what I find out after I sacrifice one of my babies
