I AM SICK OF BEING TREATED LIKE A 3RD CLASS CITIZEN IN THIS GAME! ME AND EVERY OTHER WOOKIEE IN THIS GAME HAVE WAITED PATIENTLY! AND FINNALY WHEN WE THINK OUR PROBLEMS ARE GOING TO GET ADDRESSED, ALL WE GET IS A SLAP IN THE FACE! THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE CARDBOARD AND TREE BARK YOU GAVE US FOR ARMOR! IT WAS A REAL BIG HELP! YEAH THAT HAM BONUS FROM THE START MAKES UP FOR IT, WHEN WE WERE ALL STUMBLING AROUND LIKE CAVEMEN FOR THE 1ST 5 MIN OF THE GAME STABBING EACH OTHER WITH SURVIVIAL KNIVES, BEFORE 2.5K BUFFS, AND 80% COMPOSITE!USEUALLY WHEN THERE'S A DISADVANTAGE TO A RACE THEY HAVE SOMETHING TO MAKE UP FOR IT THAT IS ACTUALLY WORTH MORE THAN A SACK FULL OF DEAD MICE.STOP "DEVELOPING" USELESS JUNK, FIXING THINGS THAT ARN'T BROKE, AND TAKE CARE OF THE PEOPLE THAT PAY YOU!


I FOR ONE WILL BE CANCELING MY ACCOUNT WHEN IT EXPIRES IF I CAN'T BE TREATED FAIR AND NOT LIKE A BLACK MAN IN THE 1950'S!

This is just stupid. For one thing, this is a game. Don't expect to have your way all the time. If they equaled everything out so everyone had the same stats and junk, this game wouldn't be fun, would it? Also if you are sick of playing a wookiee, just make a character on another server that isn't a wookiee and see both sides of the fence before you go off ranting.

While Ill agree that IceyBlueTundra did post this in the wrong boards (it should really be over in core systems). Also used all caps (big no no). Also compared it to segregation (which really isnt that approipraite).

but i am sick of people just not caring. its like we dont exist. everytime bring up the issue its always the re roll responce. what if you couldnt compete (not even come close) with other people because of imbalances in the game? you bring up the issue and always get the reroll responce. ALWAYS get it. Would you reroll after spending months fighting for an issue? How about we all just reroll as human and forget about balance in this game.


but anyways the other 2 armors are already scheduled for release in 9.1.

I gotta agree.

I like the armor. Sure, its not fantastic, but it is enough to tide me over till the next 2 sets are released.

I never said I didn't care. I said I was tired of wookiee bitching, especially since it's public knowledge that two additional sets are coming in about a month and a half.


With the first set pretty much being on par with chitin, one could guess then next two will be similar to ubese and comp. I swear though, if one more wookiee assclown comes on this forum to flame, I'm gonna lobby for those two new sets to be the wookiee equivalent of tantel and padded.

Well if anyone read the new State of Game letter that was just posted a couple days ago. Wookiee armor #2 and #3 should be in in the mini publishat publish 9. So publish 8 just went in 9 is next months publish. We only need to wait, what little less then two months. I am a wookiee also and I can live with the first armor till publish 9 mini publish.


If you can not wait I agree do not let the door hit you on the way out.


Remember there are professions who are been broken with less then half their specials working, longer then wookiees wanted armor (or thought they needed armor). So calm down drink some brandy and go kill some swoopers.


Remember we are dealing with a company that is trying to fix some of the major draws to this game first. One being Jedis second being getting space expansion finished. I do not know about you butI would rather have wait then have some quickly pushed armor that will not be good as one that comes with time.


And take this threadto the proper forum Core Systems would be the best place.

one thing i have stated in other posts, is making different armor types for different races. a good example is wookies.


The kashyykian armor is supose to be all natural. since thta is the case, i think wookies should also beable to wear baon, and chitin armor as well.


Leave the Composite for HUMANS only, and break the rest of the armor down accordingly. While any race that can wear the suprior armor can always wear the lesser grade armor if they want to.

Woo! Finally a place to vent my idea about wookie armor!
I am sick of having all these whiners. Did anyone who played a wookie ever read the manual that said wookies will have no armor? Did it ever occur to them that armor might be a vital part of combat since it requires an entire crafting profession? For many armorsmiths, running their business is more than a game, it's practically running a part time job in real life. Why did people choose to play a wookie after all this information? Did they think the extra stats would make them better, or perhaps that the armorsmith profession would be broken? It was the player's own fault for choosing to play a wookie.
Just as how CM and Riflemen are major combat professions, humans and zabrak are major combat races. If you want to be good, go play one of those and remember to research about game mechanics before you make another long term decision like picking a race next time.




Okay, I see this come up a lot. For starters, the game just isnt the same as it was back in beta. I remember reading the boards and seeing the best armor had like 35% resistances. Before release
eEvery single Dev stated at one time or another that armor wasnt going to be a major factor. They stated that combat would be balanced so that people who didnt wear armor would be able to use their specials more. I basically took that to mean that people with armor would lack offense, and people without armor would lack defense. And in the beginning, that's pretty much how it worked when the best armor was bone/mabari/chitin.

Let us also not forget that Wookiees were promised that their massive increase in stats (700) would be more than adequate to make up for the lack of armor. Another thing that was supposed to equalize us was the regenerative powers that are still mentioned in the online manual (which we dont have, and our secondaries are capped relatively low).

So basically the game just changed. There was no 90%base composite when I first created my character (on the day of release), doctor buffs of 2400+ that would allow composite users to not only have the best defense in the game, but allow them to use all their specials at the same time, were not in the game, and we were promised we'd be able to compete in PvP through an increase in HAM and regenerative powers. But we cant, and I have been 1 shot KOd by every single elite combat class to prove it.

Besides, there are numerous EU sources that talk about Wookiee armor, why cant we have it ingame? Is it because the one Wookiee in the movies didnt wear armor? Heck, only humans wore armor in the movies, does that mean that only humans should be the only ones to wear armor in this game?

actually if you did take the time to read the manual. you would of realized that in the manual it said wookiees could wear armor. only until recently did it say we couldnt.
