700 day andoid Boff

The Android Boff is available to all characters on an account - once.

Is there any way to switch from a Science version to an Engineering version? If I dismiss the one I have, can I got and get another one or is it claim it once (per toon), then done?

    It's one at a time not once. If you dismiss the existing boff you can claim another, at least on PC, and when you claim the new one you can change the career and gender.

    I like having them too much. Also you can use them for free training manuals... if you want. You can't sell the manuals though.

    Great. I wanted to claim the Science Borg Boff from the Reputation, but like the Android and didn't need a duplicate Science Boff on my away team.

    If I can dismiss the my current one, then claim a new Engineering Android, I've got a festive away team.

    Thanks.

    With me my androids dont self revive EVERY time, its very hit or miss for me whether or not they decide to wake up.

    I think it's supposed to be about 50%...

    The Android and Borg (from the reputation) are both good. I need to find the right combination for my play style. The self-healing definitely helps. I was using a human sci who just kept dying on me, so was no help in reviving others.

    what quality gear do your boffs have?

    Hey! you already did that in another thread!
    Can anyone confirm that you can get a new android if you dismiss it on console? I may have to test that later when I'm creating more Borg officers.

    I would imagine it works the same as on PC.

    Dismiss then reclaim as much as you want.

    All Boffs have a minimum of Very Rare XII. I don't want to spend the Dil until I know for certain who works best using what type of gear under which situations.

    In theory, I could buy reputation gear at Ultra Rare XIII, but seems pricey for the Dil - I have plenty of rep marks.

    12 purple is ok for regular story missions. Mine sometimes wipe enemy groups on their own while I'm distracted with other stuff.

    Wish I would've known about the reclaim/ career thing before I tooled my boffs up with lock box skills and specializations. Oh, well, never mind. My away team as is can already skin your garden variety enemy instantly, and even a higher level Rawi'g or Dahar Master in a few seconds.

    It isn't like respawning is such a drag with most mission. During those exploration ground missions, back before, that could be a real pain in the tush, though.

    I noticed the mechanical face Parts don't actually show on the ground anymore ever since AOY.
