Engineer Drones

Hi guys,


Just posted this in the bug reports, but was keen to know if any other Rom Engineers are having this issue.

All of a sudden my Support and Seeker drones are no longer showing as the usual grey/green drones, but have been replaced with the Federation Exocomps.

My character is allied to the KDF, so he shouldn't be getting any starfleet animations.


Trouble is, I'm not sure when this happened - it was showing as normal last night, when I got him upto level 50, but I didn't play again until after today's maintenance.


Is this expected at VA level, or is this a bug?

Any help would be gratefully received.

    Probably a display bug with the patch.

    I'd /bug it in game.

    Actually I don't think it's a bug, as not only Orbital Strike has been changed to plasma, but the turrets and drones as well. They are no longer the KDF disruptor-discs.

    Now you can argue that they shouldn't look like Exocomps either then, but my guess is that the current look is just a placeholder.

    Not a bug, they are updating the Romulan faction to an actual faction. So feel things like everything being Plasma are being added. The Orbital Strike, Drones, and Turrets all fire Plasma Beam/Bolts now.

    Only problem is they broke most of the doffs doing it. The Very Rare Turret Doff doesn't spawn 2 extras. I've yet to see an extra Support Drone. And they also neglected to push out a Rank 4 Turret so the game spawns a Rank 1...

    why in the TRIBBLE does my fleet romulan engineering kit Mk XI fabrication specialist spawn Mk 1 plasma beam turret? its supposed to spawn Mk IV phaser burst turrets, I like the idea of making them plasma turrets, but please fix it so that its a Mk IV burst turret, I don't care if its phaser or plasma, just give me back the usefulness of my kit :(

    Yes, I totally agree!!! I was so let down this morning to be in the middle of Mine Trap and Shocked to see my Kit flame through turret has changed! Please either make up a different, but equally as effective fabrication, or restore it to what it was. Thanks :)
