I've seen this as well, with my Adv. Probot. It was built with 2 level 4 armor mods. It's always medium armor, but the resists seem to vary. Most of the time, it has 40% resists to everything. Sometimes it will have 40% resists to about half of the types of damage, and vulnerabilities to the rest. Usually if you store it and take a shuttle or otherwise force the "loading" screen, it fixes itself.

I think this is one of those few andfar between "experimentation & good resource use" issues... The first "max armor" probot I made had resistances... I used whatever resources I had lying around, and didn't use my 1 experimentation point.


Afterwards, on all probots I make, I use the best items available, and always experiment... I haven't seen a probot with resistances since.


Could just be a coincidence, though.

So I finally sold my old R3. After all a DE can't have a non-colored droid. So I made a new one today and loaded it up the way I wanted it. Painted it... examined it. Vulnerabilites!!!! Yep! Medium armor with 40% resists that VARY. Sometimes it has as many as 7 vulnerabilities!


/sigh

I don't think it is experimentation as I haven't made a new run of L6 armor modules in a while. So it is the same plates I am and have been using for probots.

Experimentation & using good materials on the whole droid, Is what I meant... Here again, I'm really not sure.

I could understand the experimentation thing if the change was consistent. The resists/vulnerabilities change on the exact same droid. One time it's called, it will have no vulnerabilities, other times it's called it will haveas many as 5 (that I've seen). Experimentation should differ from droid to droid, not from call to call on the same droid.

This is a common bug. It holds true with normal armor as well. My buddy has a tantel breat plate we call the chromatic armor because it changes its values so often.


Dont let anything make you believe this has something to do with experimentation and materials. It is a known and documented bug.
