Thread: ADK Changes in last patch?

Veteran Rewards



  • If you have triggered more than one veteran reward at the same time, the announcement will remind you that you need to claim the first reward before the second will be offered.
  • The command /claimVeteranReward will now bring up the choices for the new veteran rewards, in addition to the Sorosuub. This will also fix an issue where players choose the option to be reminded in a week for rewards and they change their mind but have to wait out the week, now players can type /claimVeteranReward to reinitiate the process.
  • Anti Decay Kits will now reset the item it is being used on to maximum hitpoints. Items that have already had Anti Decay applied will also be reset to maximum hitpoints.


I haven't seen it discussed anywhere else, so I thought I'd bring it up here since it does affect WS. Has anyone tried ADK's after the change? Is the ADK consumed in the process, or has it simply been turned into a 100% guaranteed repair tool? Does the item it's on still not decay? I don't get what this changes. Anyone else know? Thanks.

They introduced some other funky things too - master looting etc.....


UPDATE: and they have nerfed afk looting (ie /loot all)..... nice one

I had an ADK on an Imp PSG prior to the update. After I logged on today, I destroyed the PSG and was able to retrieve the ADK. I was too chicken to try my ADK on something else, for fear of loosing it forever. Anyone else braver than I try using one since the patch?

I have read that other places too. Oddly enough, I have a loot macro on my F12 key and I can still loot everything on the corpse with a single keypress. The only reason that I use a loot macro was that the radial menu loot option quit working reliably for me a few publishes ago. I got tired of making three attemps to loot each corpse.

Someone with an ADK on a gun please shoot it to see if it looses condition.

Okay, someone figured this out, here it is:


You know how once a gun goes below 25% condition, it deteriorates in speed and damage? An ADK will bring it back up to full condition to restore the origional damage, and then make it invulnerable forever. This was triggered by some Jedi trying to ADK their 4th generation sabers which were really beat up. Complaining happened, the dev's folded and continue to destroy the economy. Hope this helps

Ah, so they didn't nerf the ADK, they just made it even better. Great (/sarcasm).

not really to use it a second time you still have to destroy what it's on

True, but beforean ADKwasn't much use on a weapon that was worn-down from use. Now it repairs the old weapon with 100% success and makes it so itnever decays.

Sabers don't decay, the pearls inside do, but the kit stops this. Sabers are always 1000/1000 condition.

Jedi complain once they get it.


Any other proffession...............US for example, we complain about something it takes months to fix it. Remember the Berserker rifle?? OR has anyone heard of Squad Leader.


It is just this kind of treatment that led me to cancelling my accounts til the combat upgrade.
