First let me thank you all again for your support. This 2.0 version to me is exactly the new direction Runsaber was looking to take a DC profssion its not a CH copy .. its new & fresh ideas and as Runsaber said :
I also want to re-iterate that it is my goal to ensure that new professions need to have a distinctly new play-style, purpose, and aesthetic when they are added to the game. I don't simply want to add a new profession that is merely a derivative or copy of an existing class in terms of play-style, purpose and aesthetic. Simply having the time to do a new profession does not constitute reason enough to do a new profession unless it meets all of these goals (existing professions are addressed and the new profession is unqiue in terms of play-style, purpose and aesthetic).

Ok this is the MUCH revised tree set tell me what you think .. I had to lower the max droid levels to put the rest of the stuff in there so as to keep the profession in line with the rest also I was thinking of adding the rifle tree as a requirement. (Thoughts on that?)

5000 – 7500 Combat XP (not sure of the proper amount)
Requires Marksman: Master Ranged Support Abilities & Artisan: Engineering IV (58 Skill points)

Let our powers combine! Earth! Fire! Wi-- . . . *looks around*
Hmm, I think I may have struck a nerve here.
*scurries off to a corner to hide*
p.s. How about making mountable droids? Droid tank!!!

Wow This is the best one yet.
I really really like the emp cannon. I think the skill prerequsits are the same as Smuggler.
The only think i thing i would change is to take out the transmission jamming and perhaps put in a Astromech specalization tree where you could "hotwire" your astromechs to do things like put up a smoke screen or an area shield generator. Just a suggestion other than that exelent.

Very nice, you should resurface this next year when the dev's make it back to update the DE profession again.

Sounds good to me too. This also gives weapons smithis something new to make it looks like. They should be happy about that.
