Not a DE yet but tempted,



Dothe Droids a DE become pretty powerful at greater levels?


Can u you use the Droids to fight on your behalf, if so will you get the XP?


How many droids could you have doing your bidding at one time when fighting?


Are they any good angaint PvP?

My understanding is that our droids can get owned by other players pets pretty easily.


Do we get Powerful? I don't like that statement with regards to RP. We are engineers, not fighters. We make the droids, others use them in battle.


Can only use one droid at a time out. This kinda sucks. I Imagine that the reason for this is that it would kinda be overkill for a fighter to have 3 or 4 probots fighting alongside him. On the other side of the coin, I think we should be allowed too. Creature handlers can more than one pet. Why not us? Also, why the formation commands if we can't have more than one droid? Course, what happens when a fighter also masters droid construction?


The DZ and R4( IIRC )will attack for you. Just sit back and watch them die

But if you have a probot, sit back and watch it own

I bet it was an NPC craft listed on the cite like Imperial Star Destroyer or the Nebulon B-Frigate.

I'm betting droid fighters will be the proverbial "cannon fodder" of JTL.

Uh, hello. A droid fighter is just that. A droid controlled fighter. If it's playable somebody seriously screwed up.

I remember EP1 seeing these in the hanger and they were like transformers they had 4 legs.
And turned to watch the shuttle landing at the beginning of the movie?

Guess I need to throw in EP1 again and double check.

Aye, there's a swarm of em in Endor space that keep jumping me.


Tier 5 ... they hit hard and are more manuverable than anything I've seen.


With a 92engine, and overload 4 they still fly rings around my advanced like I'm standing still.

Glad I haven't run into them!



I support removing combat classes if keeping them in results in a "dumbed down" game

This is the only thing in JTL that I will run from without even trying to fight. Usually Ill have a go at even large groups of fighters, Ive always got my trusty "RUN FOR IT!" macro ready, but these things are just insane.

Saw one (labeled a 'Rogue' droid figter) roaming around Correlia.


He was only tier 2 though and died badly. Like 3 shots badly. =P
