Ok folks. It's been at least a day since the last poll on the future of DEs. Let's try this one. Please just vote in this thread. Start a new thread for discussions. It'll make it a whole lot easier for Drashk to add it up.


I want the new DE plan to be the following:


1. Keep the existing DE tree intact. (No changes)


2. Add high-level combat droids, useable by everyone,to the DE tree with no certifications required.


3. Add high-level combat droids to the DE tree, but make it a certification system so that only high-level PCs can use them.


4. Add high-level combat droids to the DE tree, but make it a certification system so that only high-level PCs can use them, but make an uber-droid that only an MDE can use.


5. Add only DE-only combat droids to the existing tree and give DEs a bonus per box for using them.


6. Add combat droids for everyone, but DEs get a bonux per box for using them.


7. Go to the BE/CH model and make a DE/DH.


8. Just add combat modules to existing chassis and no certifications required to use them.

I think the "Handler" skills should be sprikled around a little bit since there are so many professions that should be able to make use of droids.


Maybe Artisan engineer IV, throughoutthe DE tree, each level of the BH investigation branch, as well as most of the master boxes for crafting, combat and medicine.


That could make for some interesting templates... Some uber DE/BH hybrid would rule the world

Indeed, #7 is the devil. Its the one most DEs would hate and its the one I bet the Devs force us into.

Hmmm.

Of the choices presented, I like #s 3, 4 and 6 the most.

If I was forced to pick one, I'd probably stick with #3. If MDEs get any kind of profession-specific droid, I would think it's function wouldn't really be combat-related.



Taking a well-deserved vacation from his successful Droid Engineering business, Master Rho can be found puttering around the galaxy.

Don't mean to turn this thread into a discussion, but the wording in #4 says "uber droid" not "combat droid".

A droid that could, for example, hold one of every module could be considered "uber". Doesn't mean combat.
