What the heck, was driving around endor and saw super battle droid. Thought I might engage him in combat but health was 200K!!!! Do SBD's drop any good loot?, might be worth risking my life for

Nope, they drop NOTHING. So unless you are feeling like Mace Windu (sorry just watched the Clone Wars cartoon marathon :robotvery-happy, or you have a character-specific death-wish- I would avoid and fight something else death-defying like a NS elder, Krayt dragon, or DJM. At least then you have a chance at loot.



No flashy sig here, move along.... move along.

hmm i always thought it was 300k. Anyway they don't drop anything not even credits they are just put in so people cannot solo DWB. A good group can take one down in 5min but by yourself u will most likly run out of buffs before killing it or die.

yeah these guys spawn on Endor at 0, 0 along with some Death Watch Ghost's and Wraiths. I actually tried soling one of the SBD's, it took melike 45minsas they can't be intimidated or warcry'd .. By the time he finally diedmy brand new Sythe had lost about 200 of it's condition lol *doh*

This is a new Post Pub 10.3 Bug, Condition on Items is WEARING ALOT FASTER! the devs have not acknowledged or admitted it, but then again their policy is "no information is better than negative information" so what can we expect.


This really sucks actually, not sure if its a half witted attempt to lower prices on weapons or something or drive the price of krayt tissues down or whatever. Armor ALSO wears ALOT faster too.


I used to hunt Giant dune kimos for a living! lol. with my standard 80% kin armor, it would take around 800-1000 condition off the armor every single time like CLOCKWORK. but NOW i am losing 2500 condition easily, and its ONLY BEEN since Pub 10.3


Another Great Job by the devs, stealth nerf or bug, you decide

Noticed it. Have not used my brand new scythe since then. Plus the cost in armor is getting to me. Every time I try to repair armor or weapons, even with a 99.99% repair tool, it falls apart.

Same here eveything i have ever tried to repair has fallen apart even with a 100% YES A 100% repair tool. Btw one of those SBD's was hanging around the smugglers out post yesterday kill loads of people as they arrived by shuttle. Nice huh.

Ok First you guys dont quite understand how repair tools work i think.

a 99.7 Repair Tool Means that if you do a FULL repair, it will repair the item up to 99.7, then and only then does the 99.7 come into effect, you could do it for less also and this percentage is meaningless, but always use a 99.7 tool in case you get a full repair and get lucky


Lets say i have a shirt that is 130/1000 condition,

I use a 95% repair tool, the BEST i can be repaired to is 950/950

Lets say i have a 100% repair tool, ONLY THEN is it possible to get 1000/1000 back


People are under the impression that the 100% tool means thats it should possibly have a 100% chance of working, it does not work like that. Repair values are all hidden and such, there was a friday feature or tuesdays tips i think regarding weapon repair from thunderheart not so long ago, he basically gave the same information that we already knew.

I wonder if they are trying to make the crafting skills a bit more attractive (greater demand.) Right now I am about to give up MWS because I sell mabey one or 2 weapons a week ( just 10 point but decent stuff) I have been using the same T21 for a few months now, not planning on giving it up anytime soon - just an example. Next to be increased will be decay rates.
