hunting droid that allows harvesting a second resource at half the normal rate.
Omg. I just gave up MDE for this profession, and I hate to say it but the DEs have been suggesting many of these ideas in their forums but they are talking to a brick wall. All they ever get is " These types of droids would disrupt game balance." The DEs have sugessted special droids for each elite class that would enhance thier class abilities, but the devs have pretty much said no, eventhough it was no problem to introduce chef food that increast accuracy and dodge. For the long distant future, combat droids will only do combat and you will only be able to use a level 10 droid.
I dont mean to rain on this parade but this is not gonna happen.
A power droid that follows us around providing additional power to our T21. Preferrably this would be represented as a bonus to minimum damage, and wound chance. I do not see it feasible to ask for increased max damage.
Perhaps we would need to issue a "deploy" command to the droid that makes him stop in place, and start providing power to the T21. We would then have to remain within 10m of it to get the bonus. To avoid warping, the droid would have to warp with us.
