Hey guys....I have 2 questions.


First I'm starting a toon on another server to be a DE......(MDE, MArtisan, MCarbineer as I want to do DWB runs).....what type of resources should I be looking for for DE. I figure since I have to grind up to DE, I might as well get a head start on some of the resources.


Second....on another server I just bought a combat medic droid.....during combat ag lvl 80+ pickets and bols (I'm lvl 56 atm) my droid hits for between 33-113....is this because its a CM droid and not strictly a combat droid?......if so what can I expect from a combat droid?


Thnx for al ur help guys!

Hard to tell w/o knowing how the droid was configured and how many combat modules were installed. But you're definitely seeing reduction in damage due to the CL difference between the target and the droid, and possibly armor, if the creature has it.

That's kinda what I figured, but someone in our grind group said combat droids were broken, I'm assuming the xp reduction is what he was talking about. /shrugs

Well, there's lots of "broken" things with droids. It's anyone's guess what your friend was talking about.

Jenden confirmed that the xp reduction thing is working "as intended" by the developers, fyi.

If your droid is CL 30 then it's doing the max damage....doesn't matter that it's not a pure combat droid. As it stands at the moment, it does not matter how many combat modules it has in it
