The follow function is to prevent you from moving across the terrain and off the hot spot you are sampling and is completely independent of droid vs pet use.
I'm eager to test out those droids myself... just don't have any damn resoruces

Good Luck.

Ya, when I have my droid out on Musty I just have to have him grouped with me and I get the "Hand Sample" buff. That's how it seems to work anyway.fridge33sam wrote:I haven't used a droid yet, but if it's as you suggest and the ability is triggered just by being out then you wouldn't need to follow him. the follow feature is meant only to keep your trader from drifting. So, if I'm reading you right, there are two separate things going on and they are independant of each other.passionfly1 wrote:could you tell me if the OP's macro would apply to the new mining droids?
I just made my first droid since update 12 and its a mining droid to help me hand sample musty stuff but it only came out 53 hand sample power since the musty copper is so horrendous on Flurry atm. All 6 of my hand sample modules for this droid came out 8's at 87% =(
I don't think when you sample with mining droids you need to follow them since they just give u bonus to your sampling buff so I'm not sure how that goes. Do you need to follow mining droids? I'm not sure.
Anywho, once the servers are up I'm gonna try this sampling macro as I was dying to find one on the SOE forums and couldn't but my fav swgcraft forums never fail me! *hug*
