Thread: DE's are at the top of the list
TH says nothing new, and his explanations make sense to me. DE is different from a lot of other professions because of integration issues. I mean -- it makes sense if you think about it. Having droids integrated into the fabric of a universe's operations (a wide variety of subsystems too) would reflect Star Wars more accurately, but it is very hard to do from a code point of viewand requires careful systems design work up front and lots of integration testing to make sure you don't break the systems that you are tying droids into (i.e. surveying and resources).
As far as this patch goes, my crafting droids work fine, I can call my probot and my pet at the same time just fine, crafting has improved slightly. CH's are gouging, but I hear all this "I'm shocked -- SHOCKED to hear about price gouging, on my server!" stuff and just think "pffft surprise".
