Took me a while to figure out "know down" meant "knockdown".

Regardless, that's an interesting find. I'll have to remember that.

I have seen this also the only way to reassemble the droid is to store and recall the droid.


There should be a knockdown recovery option for droids.

My probot did that. I was like WTH? It just exploded on me. But it kept firing and pulled itself together after the combat was over.

Did anybody of you guy notice that when a Probot attacks and got shot / hit with a knockdown attack it falls apart and won't recover from it. It give a funky effect dragging the pieces of the droid around and see them attack, but it also leads to customer complain about broken droids.


I was not sure what two of my customer meant until I could reproduce and see the issue. Did anybody else see the same thing and if so was it already addressed?

So you're saying that even after storing the droid is disassembled but travels around as if it isn't ?


Tried using a Droid Repair or Reconstruction Kit on it ? Or even a medical heal ?


Not seen this myself but then not had the droid knocked down before.

I've seen them where they fal apart, then spring back together to fire then fall apart again....and yes it does look wierd for someone to be dragging around an exploded probot droid! Best way to get it back into one piece is to store and call...

Think it's due to the animation when you get incapped, which is excatly the same as getting knocked down. Probots just blow to pieces when they get killed so they do the same thing when they get knocked down :/

you can taget your kd'd peices of probot and do incap recover... it will cometogether and attack again.


This is just the animation for it. Its sad that many droid users do not know this and think it is dead.

And it's offline now. Someone might have had a security problem and things are gone now (only receiving 404 on that URL).
