I bought out in the event got the KIDD DRONE MODULE. Added module to my toon. The drone appears automatically and follows me around like a puppy and as soon as I press for activate it for battle it disappears. Is this normal?

If I don't press to activate it.it stays and does little to nothing.

    I have no idea, but I've seen the same thing. I can't tell whether it is an actual bug, or the baby kidds are just really hard to see and wander off closer to enemies.

    KIDD DRONE just dissapears as soon as you activate it. Tried it out on nimbus were there's plenty to kill to test it. Other wise it just follows you around and stays intact firing every 10 secs or so. Very weak fire power as well.

    Yep, it's currently bugged on PC. Apparently, it works on Console.
    Insert witty signature line here.

    Cryptic 'quality control' at it's finest.

    This one is particularly embarrassing.. when you activate the item it just disappears. There is absolutely no way that passed any type of testing.

    Its not a consistant bug though, when I first got it the activation made it go poof, but today its working, for me at least, like its suposed to.

    I thought perhaps I was missing something but it seems that all that's really missing is the drone after activation.

    I’ve noticed this as well. However, Occasionally the drone will approach a target in a battle zone and start shooting at it (in unseparated master mode) but for the most part it just floats around and serves as target practice for the enemies. Yes, clicking on the drone activation makes it disappear immediately. Definitely still bugged on XBox as of today.

    I am glad to see I’m not the only one with this problem.

    Still bugged as of yesterday. Considering this was one of the major "rewards" for completing the current special event campaign, one would think they would make fixing this a slightly higher priority than other glitches, especially since this seems to be widespread and cross-platform.

    Bump - any updates on this? Still broken. I hope the new ship-based DOT-7 universal console that’s coming up as a reward for this latest event works better than the KIDD has.

    Try using the drone in a story mission. Seems to work fine. Don't think it's set up to work on nimbus or new romulus etc

    Well sure enough... I am able to split them up in spacedock and missions, but not in battlezones (Solonae Dyson Sphere, Kobali Prime) or other locations (like the fore-mentioned Numbus III or New Romulus) where free-world combat occurs. This is apparently not a bug but a feature.

    Sigh... a wasted effort. Hopefully the DOT-7's will be more useful.
