Ok, So you can build them? Correct? If so, then what abilities/Skills must a DE have?

No, Nightshadow. We cannot build destroyer droids. We cannot build battle droids, or super battle droids, or IG-88s, or IG-Lancers, or anything of the sort.

Probots are all we have. 810 or 820 HAM (has anyone managed to experiment one past 830 now? Does it still cap at 820?) 40% medium armor, and all the attack of a newbie's CDEF.

NPC ones are strong, don't look for DE built ones to even come close to the NPC version, if we ever even get them to build.

Well, they are pretty good against a graul mauler. Not so great against a rancor.


However, in PvP they would be great, cause of the high damage in a range attack. Energy Based.


In PvE they would be nice damage as well.


I avoid messing with groups of more than 3 of them even with an army of pets out.


They would be a GREAT alternative to creature pets, however, creatures would need more nerfing. Unless Droideka are heavy armor anf 80% most resist or better. This of course is combatwise. An MSE droid is still a "better" pet than a graul cause its actualy star wars, not jungle hop.


To truely make the game better DEs would need about 3-5 different styles of combat droids and non-CH would need to be limited to only 1 non-combatant mount. Even then i'd hope to see way more guys on vehicles than mounts.

I just want a IG-88 buildable blueprint and really show the CH what pet is really the top of the food chain.

Interesting. Maybe NPC-strength droidekas are bad for MDEs. If CHs can have rancors, we can have full blown droidekas.

I think full blown droiddekas would be awesome for us to have. They would add alot to the game and make it really truely awesome alot more than adding more creatures would. I think making almost every droid from the movie buildable would add so much more to the game.

There are different strengths of droidekas. Im only novice carbineer and I was able to kill four of them solo (no pets) extremely quickly. The harder ones I can take on 2 max if i use my sludge panther, and 3 would be pretty close call, and more and I would be dead.
