Is it considereed a exploit to heal my droid using my medical stims or medic/doctor bacta shot ????
I was group hunting the other day and used a bacta shot to heal my droid. Someone informed me this is a bug at present and should not be used. Can any of you guys shed light on if i can or should be doing this.

thanks zaal

Aye I've seen this too.

I would say it's a bug and healing droids should be done via the repair kits - so it's kinda putting us poor DEs out of pocket in terms of trade - even though the droid is a 'pet'.


10 pence you have? Cup of tea I need. Hmmmm


While I can't imagine anyone getting banned for it: I would advise against it - just my opinion

While it might not have a good effect on DE trade, I don't think it's an exploit. CMs will do it even if they're not trying, as they've got area-of-effect healing.

I think it should be changed, but in CSR parlance it seems to be "working as intended". Maybe the upcoming DE revamp will fix it...

I would probably say it is a bug.


However, I wouldn't worry about getting in trouble for using it. Until they tell you not to use it, you have no way of knowing.

Bout the same here. I consider it a bug, but not an exploit.
