Doesn't it ever bother anybody why we don't see more of this armor. I see more jedi than actual matching suits. Heck I've never seen a suit much less a piece. Yet everyday I see a jedi. It's this stuff that makes me boil. It's just crazy trying to go through the DWB multiple times much less once.
I just don't understand why it has to be so hard to get. How do so many NPCs wear it yet players don't. Further more how is it offensive to Star Wars with jedi walking through Starports. If jedi are going to be common I say mandolorian armor should be easier to get. It's not even like everyone's going to wear it cause it's worse than Comp.
Plus it's a Commando/BH armor meant for us, yet I don't think we'll ever see one of us in a suit. Well maybe one or two. But out of everyone playing that is just to small.
I can only hope come CU the DWB won't be an insane place to go and people will be able to get the armor more often.
Sorry if this comes off as whiney or rant, maybe it's just from going there today. I dunno.

No real commando/bh will ever have a full suit of mandalorian, unless their alt is a crafter, and they are in a huge ass pve guild.

It's bothered me for ages, but whenever I mention how it's far too difficult to get, compared with the reward, I always get the "blah blah blah, it's difficulty isfine as it is, blah blah blah.."
Blah.
I'm sorry, but the fact that no one would actually use it for fear of it decaying is testament to just how stupid its rarity is. What's the point of introducing something no one's going to use because it decays? They either need to lower the difficulty of getting it by a significant margin or simply make it undecaying. Right now it's flat out retarded (not to mention that even if you have a full suit you'll look like a clown due to the random color thing).
There's honestly so many problems with Mandalorian armor and the dungeon that I could rant for hours.

Come on guys, the Death Watch Bunker is the ONLY thing which provides a challenge and forces group work in this game. Take out the SBD's and its just another lame geono cave which every man and his dog can solo with little difficulty.
The only reason the armour is so hard to craft is because of the stupid drop rate for the parts (circa 1%), not because of SBD's or any other mob in the bunker. The SBD's just take time... they are not hard at all, as soon as they go into melee they do naff all damage. A group of around 10 ish can take one down in a couple of minutes easily. IMHO the most annoying mobs in the Death Watch Bunker are the damn mine rats, 80% resists with medium armour and they seem to swarm at you like mad (pity they use the quenker model really).
I love the SWB because you CANT solo it, you need to work in an organised group where people know what to do and when to do it. This is what multi player games are about, people working together to achieve a common goal.
When the corvette first came out people cried it was far to hard if not impossible. Now how many people do you see with AV21's ??
Only tweaks to the bunker id like to see implemented are the ability for the crafter to choose armour colour and a small increase in the drop rate of the minerals and the protective gel stuff.

seriously... the armor isnt that hard to craft, my guild has crafted 8jetpacks (i was there for 6 of the runs and own 1of them) all the crafted stuff is not that hard to do, we can craft 2jetpacks in a nite (45min runs, then everyone kinda gets ansy and we go kill some dirty rebels, soon we will be able to make 4 a nite) the one thing that has been stopping us as of late is teh damn DWB bug, with ppl bugging the spawn for XP, it lags out the whole bunker and messes things up. the mando can be crafted just as easily as a jetpack... and mind you we are not some SUPER PvE guild we are a good PvE and PvP guild, yes we are a big guild but we make our DWB runs with about 15ppl...and we have not crafted the armor yet cause we are stockpiling some of the resources

Stupid jebi bugging the DWB. I survived an assualt don there for10 min unbuffed, just keeping out of everyones way and laying down the burns, then my downer kicked in and I got hit by a stray AOE

Well it wouldn't be so bad if you could make one colored suit in one run.
I just think it's silly to go back multiple times, cause even with this only one person could actually use the armor unless the guild shared it which is pretty sad.
Fighting SBDs an BDs constantly gets boring.
I just don't understand how people get through that. My guild went there for the first time and I knew we wouldn't get through it. We got to one big square with about 4 BDs and 1 SBD and we were all killed so fast, think doctor died somehow, it wasn't funny. Now I'll admit not everyone was a master combatant, yet we did have two jedi with us there were about 18 all together. As a commando about the only thing I can do is put flame Dots on everything cause flamesingle does very little on droids.
Working together better might have helped (was a tad disorganized) even still it seems like you need a CM a bunch of Bounty Hunters, Jedi, Doctor, and Swordsman to get through it. Everyone else is kind of useless.

You'll find that the flame dot on SBD's is one of the best weapons available (save jedi). Stack dots on sbd's and they drop pretty quick. I had dots ticking for over 4k the other night... id like to see another proffession do that much damage to one.. (save jedi of course)
heh had an ultimately funny moment the other night, 4 or so people were attacking an SBD outside the bunker (hitting mind) , i stakced some flame dots and ended up killing it before they could kill its mind.
Made me feel great to be a commando !
