No way, no fking way. How the hell can they make Mandalorian armor craftable?!? Where are the armorsmiths going to get Mandalor, from the imaginary planet that isnt even in this game? Plz tell me they dont make it craftable, that would be so against continuity its not even funny.

With so many "people" crying out for Mandalorian armour I guess it was only a matter of time before the Dev's caved in and made it a craftable instead of an uber-rare loot drop.........


Knowing SOE it'll need to be crafted with ridiculously rare components just to please all the happy campers out there

You'll probably have to find schematics/resources for it. They wouldn't just make it easy to craft. I'm picturing it to be as hard as RIS is, most likely it'll be harder.

I hope not.. what these people are failing to realize... while they all hope they are one of the few to get it.. Is simple decay, do they really want another house decoration or do they want to be able to actually use the stuff.

Hehe harder then RIS?


Show me one person that wears RIS on a full time basis and I'll eat my keyboard


The price on mandelorian would then be... umm... 200 mill ?

I have to say I agree. Even as a Master Armorsmith I really hope they don't make this craftable. If they do, it should be as much of a quest for the Armorsmith to learn how to make it as it is for the person wearing it. I also agree that with Decay in the game, no one is gonna wear it if it is insanely rare hard to get, and yet we do NOT want 1000 Boba Fetts on each server.


Continuity means nothing in SWG. Continuity in SWG was thrown out when they announced there will be Player Jedi.

I dont think anyone really wants Mando armor to be put in at all. At least not anyone who gives a crap about continuity. My favorite part of Shug's post was that all it took was some friend/co-worker at Lucasarts to complain enough and it got done. I would definitely rather not see this armor in the game. It's just going to turn out like the jedi.

I'm guessing it's going to be one of these limited-use schematics they've started using.. and if they keep with the pattern, it will take the schematics from the dungeon, plus new loot items only avaliable in the dungeon.

Make it take a resource as rare as a GDK scale, and you won't see much running around.

I don't get why everyone is having such a cow about the armor...Sure there is supposed to be only two sets left in the whole galaxy...one belonging to Boba...but where did the come from, the EU. Sure alot of content comes from it but if Lucas Arts wants to add a very rare clan of Mandelorians so be it. I'm 99% sure that it will be near impossible to get and will probably be only avilable to the power gamers...I'm fine with that. So please just look at everything with optomism.



Well they let the Wookiee win
