Think about it, why cant we upgarde droids like we upgrade our RL computers. Dont need a food crafting station anymore, bring your droid to a DE and have him swap in a structure crafting station. Have a droid that needs to be up-gunned. Come in and have another or more combat modules swaped in.

No, because droids don't decay and swapping module will remove the only reason for people to buy more than one droid.

i think droids should decay with use personaly, not so much speaking as a DE but as a droid user, i know that with oriz, my doc char, hes had the same r3 unit for help with med stuff since he mastered doc in november. that droid has taken god knows how many shots from turrents, shots from players, even a hit by a K. Dragon once.


Maybe something like


I think droids should have condition like armor and such. for example


a well crafted advanced r3 might start with 20K condition


When its called it would decay a bit, and decay over time called as well ( kinda like vechs, at about the level of a speeder, but not as high as a swoop, this might need to be lowered to the level of an X34 eventualy, would have to test


Everytime the droid is incaped it would lose say 500-1K condition


This damage to condition could never be fixed.



This would make more sense, and give DE's some much needed repeate business but not really be a nerf to using droids, that level of decay woudlnt be so bad i think.

Droid have vitality like pets.

So, each time they're DB, they loose 1 vitality, they have 100 I think.

Unfortunately, dev use pet code for droids, and because of that, you can use vitality pack on droids.
