Droid Engineer Archive

ok I know a lot of people dont even buy droids anymore because there is absolutely no reason for them. Yes maybe they have a crafting station and medicle thing in it but really are those things really really needed for the average gamer? I think they should have more fighter types like the probots and more things that the normal droid can do. For player cantina's maybe an Artoo droid with those cup holders on the top like you see a lot of in the taverns and stuff, it can be used like factories producing drinks non stop and as moving vendor's also.

or maybe there should be like a human-like combat droid like the one in KOTOR. Ormaybe they should give droids some special ability like an areatrack like the rangers have. Where itscan people or creatures. Or it could have a repair tool in it where it doesnt damage the maximum condition. whats your thoughts on that,

by the way I am not a droid engineer. just had these good ideas you guys might like

OK, I don't think this post was meant to be malicious - the first sentance was probably a mistake, but there are some good ideas here, and it didn't deserve one star. It is nice to see a non DE try to give some feedback.

Not a good way to start a post here on the DE forums, though...

Yes maybe they have a crafting station and medicle thing in it but really are those things really really needed for the average gamer?

Define average. If you make camps, if you heal, if you craft at all, then the answer is yes. There are very few people out there who have nothing but fighter and entertainer skills.

I think they should have more fighter types like the probots and more things that the normal droid can do.

You will find nothing but complete agremment on that one.

This would be a cooll droid. I would say that such a droid module should only be usable by a Chef, though, as a tool to augment their profession. Either that, or only allow the drinks to do minimal buffs unless used by a Chef.

or maybe there should be like a human-like combat droid like the one in KOTOR.

I think you mean the assasin droid, and we have asked for stuff like that.

Or maybe they should give droids some special ability like an areatrack like the rangers have.

We have asked for that, too

Where it scan people or creatures.

A scan module would be cool.

Or it could have a repair tool in it where it doesnt damage the maximum condition. whats your thoughts on that,

This is also a good idea - a better repair module for armor and weapons that is in a droid. I like that one. Haven't heard that before.

Thanks

I'll say it again im a bounty hunter and i would love to have a new kind of battle droid like a droideka from episode 1or better yet Ig88 bounty hunting droids or other droids of that kind.I really want them to fix this professtion. I think it would make the game better all around and therewould be a decrease in ch as well.

If the dev's read this i hope you make these changes.

LONESTAR221-

If you read the post pinned at the top of this board (the dev plan), you will see that the new battle droids will be for DE's only

This is NOT what many DE's want

There are a number of threads with many good ideas on certs for different classes to be able to use the new combat droids.

So, keep your eyes pealed for threads about this issue. I know that everyone wants to be able to use cool new battle droids. The dev's approach right now means that you'll be stuck with probots, and DE's will be CH's with some serious hopper costs
