I've been making Probots for a few days now, butno matter what i do i cant seem to get their effectiveness past 12%, i see alot with 20% and i cant seem to figure it out. Any other droid engineers out there who make 20% ones that could maybe fill me in on what they are using/what they are experimenting with? Thanks in advance.

Depends a great deal on the materials you use. For instance in general metal slots if you use Steel vs Copper you get a much better %. Also there is a portion of it thats random.

Steel is just about all i use for metal, which of the factors needs to be high? durability, effectiveness or quality?


I also tried experimenting on the parts to make them better but it never does any good, no matter what i have tried i always get 12%

Look at the schematic to see which properties are important for each component. Look at the resource properties and use the resource with the highest value in those properties.


Every type of steel is NOT better than every type of copper or aluminum. I use aluminum in my droids because the aluminum I use has very nice values in the required properties.

Its a Master Aritsan Part that takes GP Modules, Control Units, and Energy Distributors to make (which are also Master Artisan parts.) You are going to heavily rely on Master Artisan parts for many different droids.





Making SWG more Star Warsy. One droid at a time.

I have been an owner of an R5 combat droid for a while. I decided to buy a new combat droid to be able to cycle them in and out of battle. I came across a pretty good looking probot, bought him, then activated him this morning. My only problem is that he didn't come with an attack comand.


From what I have read it sounds like most people use the guard command for him in battle but I am wondering is this normal for him not to have an attack command or did I get ripped. Also is it possible to get the attack command added to his command set or is that just one more thing you can't change once the droid is built?
