Ok good. We've gotten confirmation on this issue as well. I'll add it to the list above.

Great thanks! Ok we know now that its a multi server issue that needs to be addressed. I've already added it to the Ithorian Questions. Hopefully we can get some more feedback from Jaato and the Devs soon.

he Kinetic went up on the Guardian you say? Thats definately weird.
Well, I didnt really have a venue to report it since Jaato was gone. I tried to figure out on the JTL boards if it was intentional or what, but got no response.

Hmm...well then lets add that to this list of questions for Jaato. Try and get as many questions answered as possible.

Might sound stupid: on 25.10 I was able to craft the Sentinel Armor (with Ressources according to Padded Armor)-yes, i am not a Master AS (4-0-0-4) yet :-)
On 26.10 The Sentinel was no longer available (only for Master AS), but I was now able to craft the guardian (using what i think Composite Ressources as it uses Composite Segments).........
Question is: Is this a bug, or has the Sentinel now become some sort of Uberarmor because it has to be better than the composite/guardian?
By the way, the Server i am playing on is Gorath

Thanks for adding my thread commnets into this one! I'd like to see if this is a bug or a planned change. This is in regards to the resist differences between the Ithorian defender armor made when it first hit live and the ithorian defender armor made yesterday (or pulled from crates yesterday).

Sorry I'm only responding once a day to this post- I just started a new job and it's very time consuming. Anyways, this definitely looks like a major issue and I'll bring it to the Dev's attention right now. With regard to whether this is the format for the armor revamp, I can safely say that it is not. The armor revamp involves far more radical changes to armor than this.

Another interesting situation. Thanks for bringing it up! Can we get confirmation from another AS that is not yet Master? I'd check this myself, however, being MAS prevents me from doing so. If we can get confirmation on it, I'll be glad to add it to the list of issues.
Ariaza - Not a problem! Easier to keep track of one thread than a couple. We're getting a nice collection of questions going here. If anyone finds anything else, feel free to drop it in here and as long as we can confirm multiple instances of it, I'll be glad to add it to the list.
Jaato - Understandable man! RL should take precedence over gaming. I posted a link to this thread in the Live Issues thread from yesterday to hopefully pull some more attention to the issue. More radical changes you say? You've certainly peaked my interest now.
Thanks to everyone for helping confirm/find these issues on Live!

thanks everyone.. i thought i was going insane. over the last day i was testing composite armor formats (kin energy) to get 80/80/67 i always make gloves by hand as im sure alot of you guys do, having made hundreds of comp gloves over the months i found it interesting that i could make the ithorian gloves as test pieces and they worked EXACTLY the same so it was fun to make ithorian gloves.. i got up the next day and had a composite seg in my inv from the night before so i thought id just make one more set of gloves.. when the gloves appeared with blast protection it blew my mind... i have spent the last day wondering how in hell i added blast to my comp plates!!!!! lol explained!! ty

Hehe, you're not insane. We've all been confused as to what the heck is going on with this armor.

Yep. Until a fix is made Ithorians are going to be severly gimped in PvP.
Oh, did some testing tonight on the slicing issue in Live. My guild Smuggler was unable to slice either Defender or Guardian Armor. Again recieved a system message saying it was not a known item.
