Having looked at these drones, it appears some are without shields, and only have shield capacitors at this point in time; this means that without external healing, they will not regenerate damage done.

Given their cost, I would strongly suggest NOT LAYING THEM ON LIVE



As this is not mentioned in their description, this will likely be hotfixed.

Apologies for this; note that this does not effect Armada Defenders.

Heh

can i just ask, are ALL the new UZ drones Permanent drones?

If so the "new drone changes" weren't what i was expecting

Yes they are

That sucks.

You do realize that maybe 1/2 the playerbase reads forums with any regularity, right? Tons of people aren't going to hear about this, though hopefully none are dumb enough to lay their shiny new drone somewhere without any heals anyway.

I love my Armada Defenders, they so cool.

I'm well aware of that; I've made an announcement on live, I can only ask Voom or Jeff to put it in as the log in message.

You should be aware that this content was put into the XML on 13th July. Essentially, we're back-tracking and applying fixes to a huge amount of content / code, so please bear with us.


The plus side is that we're almost to the previous patches stuff

Seems I've managed to overlook giving ambush mines an energy It should be fixed next patch. Other drones should be fine though.

/me sees Voomy "axidentaly" remove Emp's Shield and make it instanced...

Real good question can we get a scaner for drones so we can see what augs we tossed into them what gear they use so we can aug around it like qafir+ drone team mate says use a recovery aug well if it uses a shield that gives 50 regen and a recovery aug adds 100% well recovery aug is bad idea.As it stands we dont know what shields drones use
