Correct. Here are some pics of the battle droid I got in RV. It has lots of attacks. I had a longwinded review of the new zone, and this site ate it. Suffice it to say, you can control these Robotech type droids to do your bidding in this zone. I have never seen anything like this in an MMO. The droid had multiple attacks. It had dual front mounted lasers that it volleyed. It also shot bombs out of its shoulders. It had this mega attack it shot out of its tail. It was a huge laser that filled the entire screen with energy particles. You couldn't even see anything when this shot went off. The droid was really cool.

I think they need to tone the droids down some. I have an energy melee charachter, which is one of the most damaging chars later on in the game. The droid put me to shame. It took me 30 secs to take down npc's that it took out in five secs. And I was getting decent xp for every kill it made. At one point, it was doing so much damage, I just sat and watched. And it never had health below 95%, while I was getting taken down to 50% health in some of those fights (and I am an invulnerabilty tanker). If they don't tone down their effectiveness, RV will be the place to level up post 40.

Supposedly we'll be able to earn the right to use the droids outside of RV. That could really be overpowered. Who needs a group to run mishes with, when you have an impenetrable machine of death?
