And people wonder why I sell my R2s with armor. After all they NEVER get attacked

Anyways, with a public chem station you can't make stim-d's. With out bot you can.

Can ya point us to a thread to jump in on? I'm sure some medics aren't even aware of the droid option.

I don't think you will see this happen. First, the Devs have kicked us while we were down, but I don't think they would kill yet another of our products. Er, I hope.

Second, there are all sorts of public crafting stations in the cities, and many very near the medical centers - they really aren't needed.

Finally, as someone pointed out above, ours are better anyway - as they function as personal crafting stations, making them much more viable to the end user.

Most Doctors/Medics want one for in the field anyway, so the only person that wouldn't purchase our droids would be very low level medics, who don't need a crafting station anyway.

So I guess my answer is, I don't think they would do it in the first place, and if they do - it won't really change things.

yeah the point has been made yours are better so I am happy. Now they are saying that crafting droids are buggy because they shold not allow anyone around the craft as well. This is a good thought and might help you guys even.

I am a medic/doc and i hang out in the doc forums alot. I want you guys to be aware that one thing that is being requested by player (though very far down on the list of things) is there to be Chem Craft stations in the medical centers. Sounds like a grand idea. But I like having a bot in this game and the only use I have for one is chem craft and med module. I believe from what I can see we medics spend a lot of money and may make up a large portion of your customer base. I don't think people are alwasy aware of what other class they may be nerfing with a request like that. Maybe I am wrong... maybe you guys wouldn't care at all, but I wanted to make you aware of it.

I'll point out that a droid crafting module counts as a personal crafting station and not a public crafting station. Also, a medical droid with a level VI medical module actually enhances a doctor's ability to heal wounds, even in the med center.

If they put a chemical crafting station in the med center I suspect my medical droid sales (my bigest line of sales) will take a small dip, but not that much of one in the end.

I think all DEs care. But we are so down beat by how lame our combat droid is and how little variance we have in droid types that the loss of droid customers is something many have grown apathetic about.

I would hate to see another of our droids made pointless.

well iheal alot and the 10% doesnt make much difference to me to be really honest. I don't really need a droid in the wild because people heal mnd before they come back out if they die, so after the cantina they often stop at the med center.. so I have no reason for a droid to be out there with me.. i heal just fine without it. I dont wanna fight with a droid cause he may die (i had this happen once). So the ONLY place i use him is in the med center. If they do this I honeslty won't buy anymore droids.

cept after the patch this week (they are moving everything on TC to live servers this week) droids will no longer die..

oh my gosh thank gawd!!!!!! My R2 was attacked by a boar once.. that was pretty wild, he did not die i was amazed.. my LE droid parished fighting a gorge. I did not tell either one to attack. I AM SO happy to hear this.

Starphire, you probably just forgot about this, but I'll bet you occasionally would call your crafting droid while BETWEEN battles out in the field, while people are healing up in a camp. So you could make new meds.
