  • Droid levels are affected by combat module effectiveness divided by ten, allowing for more flexibility with droid crafting.
  • Non-traders have a maximum droid level of 60, when they call their droid. This is due to not being able to fully control the droid to its maximum potential.
  • Weapon expertise removed.
  • Combat droid module expertise added (6 new modules; 10 new expertise).
  • All droid commands now give a failure message for not having a droid out and not having the required module installed for the command to work.
  • Destroying a building will properly remove it from a droid's structure maintenance list.
  • Auto-harvesting without power will no longer function.
  • If a droid is out of power, its datapad is now inaccessible.
  • If a droid is out of power, it cannot be used to craft items.
  • Power droids will now recharge a droid target, provided that a command has been trained on the power droid.
  • Added four new detonation modules that increase in power the higher the crafting level (Detonation Modules 1-5 are now available).
  • Draft schematics for chassis, components, modules, and socket clusters have been renamed so they are displayed by category in the crafting tool's draft schematic list.
  • Droids using a harvest module no longer get hung on invalid targets, when auto-harvesting.
  • "A Droid Battery" renamed to "Droid Battery".
  • Junk loot batteries have been renamed to be a specific type of copper to differentiate them from a crafted droid battery.

  • Data Storage Module 5 and Item Storage Module 5 crafting experience have been increased.
  • Droids and droid deeds now show combat statistics on them.
  • Droid batteries now show the count of their stack in their examine window, provided they are crafted after this update.
  • Droid battery draft schematics no longer need conductivity for their casing. Instead, they use quality of the ore needed.
  • Droid batteries may now be used from your inventory or hotbar, provided they are crafted after this update.
  • Changed socket banks to be in the droid component list instead of a generic component list. Renamed the socket banks to be clearer as to what they are for.

  • Droid Item Storage ratings have been expanded from allowing a maximum item storage of 10 to a new maximum of 30 items.

  • Droid storage compartment now displays its quality value for all new compartments crafted.
  • Non-traders have a maximum droid level of 60, when they call their droid. This is due to not being able to fully control the droid to its maximum potential.

  • Agent Taarna will now point you towards the Corellian Droid Bunker when you finish the last of the quests on Talus.
