that it aint so special checking up the dev digest.Doesnt actually give you "inside" info that noone else has.......
I was basing my coment on observation of thier performance in play, not dev comments.
They now actually explode rather than just folloing you if you summon them outside of melee range of a mob.
I really should do something about this signature.
I only ever really summoned them within a mob to make them stack and actually attack but now I can Dwarf form in and have them attack it's much better 
He will honor his words; he will definitely carry out his actions. What he promises he will fulfill. He does not care about his bodily self, putting his life and death aside to come forward for another's troubled besiegement. He does not boast about his ability, or shamelessly extol his own virtues. - Sima Qian.
Actually... I was swearing at mine last night.. I'd summon them.. and they just FLOATED there for the full 30 seconds of their life before finally exploding. I'd almost gotten clobbered by the time they decided to blow...
Still, Castle says he's fixed them now, so hopefully they'll be OK soon.

Do not go gentle into that good night.
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
Thé've been working great for me so far. my main concern is that Castle's fix for the mini-dalek will break them again.

Peacebringer / Luminous Blast / Photon Seekers: Increased Radius on Peacebringer Photon Seekers explosion from 7 to 10, but reduced their damage slightly from Damage Scale 2 to 1.64.

43% Increase in Radius, 18% Decrease in Damage.
In-game this translates to 333.7 Damage --> 273.6 Damage
Frankly I usually use them as a Mini-Nuke anyway. The Damage decrease sucks, but it's not TOO bad... and the radius increase will mean that they're a nice little 1-2 combo with Dawn Strike. Maybe this is the start of Kheldians actually being re-examined. They could sure use a damage scalar increase in Human form.
Castle says it was because of a timing bug.
My take would be that in the time between the seeker attacking an the detonation going of the mob would often have moved more than 7 feet.
Just have to see how it plays to determine if it is an improvement or not.
NB a 43% increase in radius but a 100% increase in area.

I've been really enjoying the new improved Photon Seekers, they follow me around reasonably intelligently now, and are pretty nippy.
