Thread: Droid Info for a new customer?
OK some questions. I read the guide the one guy posted and it answered some but made me ask others.
Please don't flame me if I hit on sore topics that the Devs have not addressed yet lol ![]()
1. I bought 3 medical droids to experiment to see which one works best and in what ways. I cannot tell a difference even though the Ball like seeker droid has the lowes med % mod. I then got a R4 and Surgical Droid with the same med mod on them.
Do these just increase my wound heal and dmg heal abilities when around, or simply let me heal wounds in other places than camps or med centers?
2. If I use my droid to follow me around in the field...will his (yeah my R4 is a he, BeerCan) batteries run out fast? or how long is the normal duration for batteries?
3. Are they addressing the personality mod on the droids any time? (meaning have they even said they know they are screwed and addressing them?)
4. How do droids fight? I dont want to use mine to fight but do they shoot lasers or simply run up and do some type of melee dmg?
Thanks for answering my noob questions.
2. I'm not sure, but my best guess is that a "charge" will last about 15 minutes. I haven't tried to see if different actions (combat, repair, etc) make any difference in battery life.
3. The only personality changes they have mentioned were changing the surgical droid to the list of droids that "talk" and removing personality chips from the schematics of droids that dont.
4. Droids will defend themselves to the best of their ability if attacked, but otherwise you can only initiate combat with a DZ70 or Probot. These droids have an "attack" command you can program.
