lol
i can easily bypass even 100 SBD in that room with my group
man you've been given brain to think, so why wont you do something to evade these SBD?
I'm not a cloacked jedi, every player from FasrStar can prove this
well thats good to hear and sorry for acusing you.. yes they are easy to bypass but why should we have to any other profesion has to deal with the sbd if they want the loot why should one jedi template have such an advantage
im not saying break cloaking just stop the ability to remove items from loot crates while cloaked meaning the jedi would have to uncloak and deal with the sbd he spawns or die trying to get the loot just like every other profesion has to

Fixed today, read the patch notes
hmm i can only find the bit that says cloakers can now be attacked by turrets

Yup, it seems to be fixed
"Death Watch Bunker: Fixed an issue where multiple Super Battle Droids could be spawned by repeatedly looting a chest. "
At least this way, cloakers can continue to loot crates and groups can go down with no 20 SBDs in a room.

Exactly.
Choke isnt just a restriction of the wind passage, its a refined version of a jedi crushing an object from every direction at once, much like we would with an empty coke can, hence i would see choking a droid as a crushing attack, with the initial damage and DoT effect a representation of the outside that is crushed, damaging important internal circuitry.
Now i do believe that cloak is a mind trick, blanking the minds perception to a jedi presence nearby, so i see no reason a droid wouldnt see the cloaker, especially with all the sophisticated trackin methodsyou could build into a SBD, even if infra-red, thermal imaging or ultraviolet failed to pick them up, pheremone detectors, or pressure pads built into the floor would hav no trouble.
What concerns me far moreare the cloakers, intentionally using cloak to pull enormous mobs of the deathwatch npcs to the groups who are going into the deathwatch and causing these groups to get wiped out, that is a total disgrace and for that reason only, i hope its fixed to the point where droids can, and will open fire on such targets, not to mention cloaking all the way down to the foreman npc to pick up there alum minerals with spare looted keys, that makes a total mockery of the whole dungeon.
Cloak is a wonderful move, and im honestly happy its in the game, get it into the Mpower box where it belongs.

When you are cloaked is totally different than feigning death or dying. Granted, if you do something while cloaked, you should have the possibility of bringing attention to yourself. I am not even a Jedi, and I say do not nerf cloak. Cloak is the way it is because your are INVISIBLE.
Oh well, I guess that logic is to sound. Maybe I should be able to cover around any mobs since I am a Rifleman. How does that sound?
technically you are not invisible. cloak is a mind trick that affects those around you, not bending light waves around you so you cannot be seen. that is why turrets can now target cloaked jedi. similarly, SBDs should be immune to cloak effects. (no mind to affect.)
anyway that is the way is was discribe when it was introduced.
