they keep adding this to the patch notes, but then two days later, they say "oh oops / denied." It would be great, though, to make a macro that would drop a camp, /pause 1, and then call your speeder or harvesting droid.... Wouldn't be perfect - you would still have to drag a new camp to your toolbar slot after each use and disband the camp manually (or just let it self disband), but it would cut down on the tedium of opening the databad and calling the vehicle or droid.

Vehicles work now from the toolbar. You can call and return the pokevehicles this way. But you cant do pets like this yet.

If you discover one, please share. I hate having to go into my datapad and call my droid everytime. Storing isn't a problem as I can just click my '/tellPet store' macro.

yep - thanks to your tip I now have a semi-efficient drop camp, pause 1, pull vehicle macro -- a lot better than waiting for 15-20 seconds for my damn vehicle to spawn. Thanks man!

The template I'm heading towards with my new Shadowfire character will hopefully make use of camps. I'm planning on Master Ranger/Master Rifleman/Entertainer. When in a remote area with a group, I can pull out a tent and entertain everyone's BF and mind wounds away. Since I'm a rifleman and don't engage in melee (confessed ConcealShot spammer), I tend not to get BF or mind wounds, so it's ok that I can't heal my own. Of course, this hasn't been tried yet, and many ideas look great on paper.

you can't heal BF in a camp. Just thought you should know that before you get out there and try it.

This is horrible! I return to find my new title on the forum is "Jedi". What's up with that? If they wanted to confer that I'm rare and learned, they'd make my title RANGER. and then make it camo colored.

I have a crate of HTFBKs in my inventory, they are great for when you are along way from the nearest outpost on Dath and Endor and need to take a pee. Just pop up a camp safe in the knowledge that you will not be agroed whilst you are AFK.


Did the same in the Krayt Graveyard on a guild hunt, had a krayt rampaging back and forth through my HTFBK camp whilst I was sat happily playing holo chess.


EDIT: when I was levelling TK I had the first meditate skill box and was delighted that when I meditated in a HTFBK camp my wounds healed after quite some time. I even argued the toss with someone who said that you needed all four meditate skill boxes in order to heal wounds
