I want Armor for My crafter char!!!!!
Even if you could wear battle armor, if you have no combat ability your combat level will be 0, and anything from kreetles to chubas to will still take you out in a few hits because they will con purple to you. This is the big secret of this CU, they have placed so many constraints to try to force balance that there is no room to play outside of the system.
Hello???? Um, THAT'S THE POINT?!?!
When you create a system, a great game does NOT ALLOW people to play outside the system. It's from people playing outside the system that the game is as broke as it is. Right now, the only concerns of mine in an otherwise wonderful balancing (that I am sure all the "l33t d00ds" and gouging crafters will hate) are the oversimplified crafting processes in experimentation and whether or not RIS will be ported over with the rest of the armors, or it will have to follow the horrid "turn in a piece of armor to get back a schematic" crap I overheard somewhere.
Otherwise, I have NO issues with the balancing they are doing. I am tired of people exploiting a broken system, then complaining that its broke, then whining they can't break it any more when the devs are finally trying to fix it. It's mentally tiring.

You know, your rant against "l33t d00ds" and gouging crafters is getting old. The majority of those complaining about this change to our profession thought the CU would place some limits on resists, give us some new armor to craft, and generally enhance the game we play. When I mentioned playing outside the box, I meant the devs seem to have decided that crafters only craft inside the box, and if god forbid you want to do something besides craft, your screwed. Allowing a crafter to put on a set of armor so that he might actually survive a trip to a harvester to collect resources or add maintenance isn't going to break the game.

The same old tired "I'm mad because I can't abuse the system anymore!" rants are tiring too.
And you know what? Not allowing a crafter to put on a set of armor won't break the game either. You might think it will, but then you will be lying to yourself, as that is a luxury, not a necessity.

I think it would be nice if marksman and brawlers could get some basic LOW level armor, If not at novice then at least at Master!
Who in there right mind would go for master marksman or brawler and have NO protection other than a PSG
also I may have misunderstood, but isent ther 3 sub categorys within each armor class? somthing like Basic, Reg, Adv.
why not let marksman and brawler get a Basic Recon cert. ??
well theres my 2 cents

A customer ask me tonight for Marauder Assault armor. I looked in my schemactics and only saw Marauder for Battle armor. He pointed me to this link and I noticed Marauder is listed for all armors. Am I bugged or was this list incorrect on TC?
On TC you could pull all Maurader Armor from the Frogs but No Armorsmith ever had anything but the Battle Armor in our DPads. This is either a Bug, or no one knows how to get that armor yet.
