Yes, stormtrooper armor can be sliced.


Droid schematics are probably used by DE's. The recruiter has all kinds of stuff, from weapons to clothing, so I'd assume the schematics were for DE's. The command hat is bugged and it sucks because I look like crap without the hat. The uniform is worthless without it.

ok can someone explain to me how it works when you trooper dies. I was in theed the other night, and I had 2 troopers 1 probot and 1 crappy eiopie out. I attacked someone of course I got incapped since he had a personal medic I saw my pets keep chasing after him, he finally DB'ed me. when I came out of the cloning facility I decided I didnt want any of them to die, so I recalled them all. but one of my troopers, when I recalled him,after that 3 second wait when you press store, it deleted off my datapad. I personally dont see how it could have died, because I wouldnt have seen him in my datapad, it sounds a little fishy to me. can someone help me out, because if I dont get a answer in a few days I am going to right out a csr ticket and get them to give me another one if they will that is

Question for you guys regarding Imperial pets. When you are soloing, do you group with your pets? I find that when I am grouped I am unable to loot the NPCs that we kill, even if I get the last shot. Any opinions on that?

known bug. just turn off autoloot and autosplit and you will be able to loot again. the commands are /group autoloot off, and /group autosplit off.

Overt is the same as Declared.
Term "overt" was invented by forum users, and is not in game anywhere, you go to recruiter to DECLARE and if you look at your character after that it says "DECLARED imperial"

Hope that clears it up.

Actually "overt" is used in the game. If you try to pull out a trooper while covert, or wear an imperial uniform, you get the message "You must be declared and overt in order to..."

I'm curious about a few issues with this system...


Let's say I'm Covert. I amass a lot of faction points and declare. I buy a Dark Trooper.Ithen store the Trooper in my datapad. CanI then go back to Covert status and keep the Trooper?


Assuming that I could be Covert with a Trooper in my datapad, let'ssay I'm stillCovert and I run an Imperial mission. I kill some Rebels and get a TEF, effectively making me Overt. If some Rebels now attack me, can I pull out the Dark Trooper to help me fight?


Thanks for the info!
