I wonder how many people panicked and thought that they got banned when they couldn't log in this afternoon.

Pathing: Protector Bots get stuck on their own Seeker Drones

This is *SO* incredibly frustrating.

In caves or sewers, one or both protector bots gets stuck behind approximately every other battle, in my experience.

- I either have to play the "Goto" game hoping to get them unstuck (effective around half the time, if I'm determined enough),

- Or, dismiss/resummon, which slows game play down to a crawl,

- Or just write the bot off as lost and hope it returns once I get far enough away, and plunge on with reduced number of minions,

- Or, skip a more preferred/useful power so I can pick up Recall Friend instead.

Currently, I'm making sure to the protector bots don't get touched by the second upgrade power by summoning them last. No seeker drones, no stuck bots. No photon grenades either, which is unfortunate.

*PLEASE* do one (or more, preferably) of the following things:
- Cause seeker drones to appear and hover higher so that they don't block the path of the mombots.
- Cause Seeker Drones to be INTANGIBLE for a few seconds once summoned.
- Have the mombots resort to JUMPING more quickly if they can not move laterally.
- Have the (X) Dismiss option that appears when you right-click on the seeker drones actually work.

Defiance seems like a power that would apply more for tanks than blasters.

Young blasters will benefit from this, but need less help. High level blasters aware of this change will die far more often for that "one more shot" rather than hiding/healing like squishies should.

Besides, as a 36 eng/eng blaster, even with stealth/combat jumping on, I go from 60% health to dead before I can get a shot off FAR too often.

Nice that it's there I guess... for the few times it might actually save someone, but it seems like a bunch of bother over something that will result in a lot of embittered blasters.
