Well, it looks the devs have started to address the uber-BE non-CH pet issue, though they have already acknowledged that today's patch may have been flawed.


It'll be interesting to see the final stats on the BE non-CH pets after they get the patching done. I suspect probots will be ruling the roost -- apart from the lack of damage healing ability.


I've been using the rotating probot tanking technique for a combat alt of mine and they've worked really well. If there was a functional droid repair tool that non-DEs could use, that would rock the house.

Just find someone with a droid with the repair module in it and it will repair your droids damage, I'm on wanderhome server mine repairs other droids all the time I just click the droid and give mine the command to repair. I don't even need permission hehe. Oh and LE Repair droids don't work my little R2 repairs them everytime.

Thanks. This is a thread generally about BE pets vs probots as tanks. The droid repair module does not repair droid damage, only droid wounds. This is unfortunately isa knownissue.

I don't think this is a good thing. BE's should be able to make non-CH pets of a much better variety than can be found in the wild. It only makes sense. I'll admit that what has been coming out is a little too over the top, but they should have the ability to make a decent pet for those that prefer a hairy beast over a droid. We are getting additional combat droids in the future, we don't want every BE screaming that DE was improved at thier expense.

I'm almost Master DE and my girlfriend is Master BE. I fully agree with you Gribnitz, BE's should be able to frankenstein a little and DE will se an improvement ( may not be a great one since they are testing Protocols with blasters................).


Anywho i would like to see a BALANCE between the Professions so people can choose what they want. As far as Probots go for tankin , what are you thinking? I tried it with mine and all he did was eat some batteries.

TY grib!


As a master BE married ingame to a droid engie, i understand the strenghts/weaknesses of both proffessions and the products we can in turn make, However I would really like something to be done with our crafting (and DE too) because right now we fail/crit 4/10 or so.. sometimes more.. and now with the NON ch patch (which the DEV's Royally messed up, even some high CL pets are now uncallable) our proffession is worthless again.. working for hrs to make a good bet- just to find out it is now invalid wow a whole month of being in the lime-light... I hope you are all prepaired for this Kind of crud when you are able to make fighting droids as I would expect your proffession to be nerfed every other week as well- or otherwise me and all my other BE friends will make a really big stink !


Im am hopeing your DEV is more compitant then ours, We have little to no comunication ever..... and ninja/stealth nerfing is stupid... and the haste messes up more things then it fixes...


I really hope this doesnt become the case in your proffesion as well... they already mess up Ours enough..

Yeah, Probots don't make that good of tanks unless you rotate like four of them. It'd be great to see a BALANCE between the Professions so people can choose what they want.
