So I bought the Vesta originally when the game would actually do what I'd tell it to do by simply targeting a team player and the little repair bot ships would fly over to whomever and repair the shields of who I targeted as a healer science ship.
Now, not only is this impossible to get to work for me and yes I've tried all of the commands on the new ui, but there's another problem. ALL and I mean ALL of the PVE enemies in anything I do, doesn't matter the enemy or the venue, targets these things first before they ever have a chance of doing anything, which leads to their instadeath and then I am stuck only being able to summon 2 every 1 minute to a max of 4.
My question is this. Who's idea was this? Not only do these ships simply not do anything I tell them but they are dead before they can heal anyone in the party?
So can we get some code in here that prevents them from being auto-targeted by powers like PAW or that makes them smart enough to fly to where I want them to go by simply targeting a friendly so they'll actually function like they did before this major change?
It's a huge disadvantage to play a healer/debuff science ship now with this Vesta and it's a waste of money.
I'm not sure I follow.
Are we talking about the shield repair drones or the other pets as well? Because, I'm not having any particular problems with the pets on my Vesta other than the standard lack of any intelligent behavior - a trademark of any pets in STO. Granted, I have only used the repair drones on my ship in instances I felt neccesarry because when others need help I tend to solve it with a Boff ability or the Vesta's trick consoles.
I used to fly Vesta (tac) exclusively, wonderful ship, able to do crazy things... I do think cryptic should add AUX rear weapons tho... would be a unique but interesting addition to a great ship

they shouldn't be the first things targeted by the AI (not talking about PVP)
and they should go after whomever I target just like before because the tray commands are NOT working at all!
You can always fit +threat consoles and spam faw. Tank for your pets.
