Ok folks, I'm currently messing around with Cover on TC-Bloodfin and here's what I've found that has changed besides what is listed in the patch notes.
1) You can now take Cover while in close proximity to your vehicle, droid or pet.
2) You cannow CALL a vehicle, droid or pet while under Cover without breaking Cover.
3) You will break Cover if you STORE a vehicle, droid or pet of yours that is in close proximity to you. (I tried it with V/D/Ps within cover break range and it broke every time. Tried it with the V/D/Ps outside of cover break range and Cover never broke).
UPDATE: NPCs and Creatures, regardless of con, agressive nature, faction, anything, are no longer preventing the Rifleman from taking Cover EVEN WHILE AGGRO'd toward the Rifleman and while in combat. I don't think this is behaving as intended lol.

even if you use it while they are outside of 20m? would be great get away from creatures, not sure how well it would actually work against people though unless you are also a master ranger....

well hmmm...
good point. It sounds like a feature then... and would allow us to use our conceal shot more often. The real problem is how to gain that 20m with our snare.
That is not to say that it isn't broken and therefore exploiting if you can do it in every circumstance just that there might be some justification to using it with enough mental twists and turns. (hate shades of gray - thanks for making my day even wierder then it was Fisher)
