So I was reading that the affection level of your companions affects how quickly and successfully they fulfill their crew skill missions and some people mentioned raising their droid's affection. I tried summoning my ship droid and giving him a droid diagnostic tool (technology) companion gift but just got a big +0 affection. What am I missing? Or is there another droid other than the ship droid people are referring to?

Try giving him something else, he apperntly don't like tech.

Can anyone tell me what they have given their droid that actually raises affection? I have tried luxury, technology, and weapon so far with no results.

try looking here for the answers you seek:http://www.swtor-spy.com/companions/

I don't think you can raise affection on the droid on the ship.

What am I missing?

There is no method to increase the ship-droid's affection rating. It gives +0 affection from all gift categories and gift qualities. It neither increases nor decreases in affection from conversation choices.

 

Or is there another droid other than the ship droid people are referring to?

There are multiple droid companions, in addition to the faction-specific ship-droid companion.

Ok thank you! I suspected that the ship droid could not have his affection raised but I wanted to be sure. It appears that a Bounty Hunter never gets a droid companion (other than the ship droid).
