to all the rangers


I have something very stange to report here hoping that there is a good answer for what I'll say!


I was hunter for a long (I mean scout xx4x) and I used my droid to harvest what Iwas killing.Thats as it harvested better than me and I could harvest still in the middle of the fight with other animals. Thats helped mea lot on crowded lairs as you probably know ...

I used to be groupped and ungroupped with my droid. Grupped only when I used veghash that stacks with the droid harvesting ability.


When I got Master Scout, Novice Ranger and then Ranger xx4x I simply forgot my scout droid thinking that I was largely better than it in taking meat/hide/bone.


Yesterday on Yavin I was on a large kliknik lair and I noticed that I'd be better call out my droid again trying to get the hide as soon as I killed one kliknik among the others. I was ungroupped with my droid, no veghash.


Well, I discovered that my droid harvest better than me! For example from a kliknik queen I can get 170-175 hide, my droid over 190! From a kliknik defender I get 110-115 and my droid 125-130!!


My droid has a modifier of 104. I supposed it was a Master Scout Droid but now ... what thinking about this?


How is it possible? What is wrong in what I do?

Is this a bug? If this is not a bug, why are we using 63 SP in the Ranger Prof if a droid can beat us?

Please, let me know your opinion.

Yes, your droid harvest bonus sstacks on top of your own bonuses. So you would have the ranger harvest mod + veghash bonus + droid harvest bonus.

any increase in your natural harvesting skill,

(by veghash or droids) will stack on top of your natural skill. So, you will do better with veghash+droid, than with just veghash or just droid.

Your Droids skill seems to act as a modifier based on your own skill. It being able to harvest more than you is as intended.
