Droideka

His basic can crit on it's own. It's the additional damage based on speed differential that can't crit.

Case 1 - attacks a character with equal or lower speed than itself- damages once with normal crit-capable damage.

Case 2 - attacks a character with higher speed than itself - damages twice: once with normal crit-capable damage and then again with speed-variable true damage.

I'ma let you in on a secret:

Most people suck at modding.

You are right. They are probably just following the in-game mod recommendations. Droideka needs offense mods since he cant crit. Additionalal, it needs protection since it has protection recovery and slow speed since its dmg scales as per the difference in speed.

They probably put the mods with highest attack. As bonus sets almost unrelated to droideka(except same attack), they put the highest. Just my thoughts. Of may be they are mistaken

I think someone once made a post on how it was better to mod droideka like a normal attacker and ignore his whole let enemy take turns thing. Not sure if he was on to something or not
