Last eveing I was reviewing some of the information on the CH board, for another character that I was interested in building. One of the commands that was mentioned was Guard. So I took a look at my two CL 10 pets and one of them had this command.


What it does is give your pet permission to attack any individual that attacks you. You can stand by with a smile when you bio pet takes on an NPC and wastes them. This feature should be added to combat capable droids. Now we have a lot to get fixed, to be sure. This would be a 'nice' feature to have when you are at your harvestors and unwanted company comes to visit.

Umm.... all of MY post-patch-7 droids have the "guard" command... while none of my Pre-patch-7 appear to have ANY commands... of course, it may simply be a matter of re-training them.

Should Sony and Lucas Arts be worried? (15000 users * 5 accts = ~$13MIL in potential lost gross annual revenue) If I were the CEO for either LA or SOE, I would certainly be worried.

You need to train the attack and guard commands for them to work. There doesn't seem to be a default.

guard works fine for droids.


though it seems its changed that you are no longer the default


if i just tell my droid to guard he acts stupid. if i target myself he works. You should be able to target other people as well


Oh and make sure he has a battery

I tried it last night and yes "Guard" is an available to command to train. Now I have an e-mail to send to all of my DE customers reminding them of this.



Thanks all
