Ok I'm trying to buy armor (thanks blum for all thr trouble) but I'm confesed on the whole state thing.


Firtst:


Whats the difference from speical protection and effectiveness?


Second:


I was talking some people and a guy said that padded is better aginst blaster than ubese, but the blast stats on the ubese is much better (i think it was 15% on ubese and 5% on the padded). Is stats all that matter or is there something behind what type of armor you buy.


Third:


If I'm going to be facing alot of enemies with blasters (like rebels) what combo of armor should I get for maxuim protection in first blaster and second melee?



Thanks guys, I really need this help, I'm lost on how armor stats work (wish it was more simple like the weapons).

Armor, from what I can tell, has two main 'Statistics'.


Resistances reduce damage for that particular damage type. Kinetic for melee/projectiles, Energy for most Blaster types, Heat/Cold/Electricty/Acid etc for other types.


Armor also reduces your HAM secondary stats by varying degrees. You'll regenerate slower if your wearing armor, as it is tiring. A helm affects your Mind stats mostly, while leggings affect Action mostly, though they all have some impact on each pool.


Remember - just because it's more advanced armor, doesn't mean it's better. Good Chitin is better than bad Ubese.

Suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Can anyone explain to me what these numbers in CU armor means? My best pvp pre CU composite converted to about 5900 kinetic and 4800 energy. What the hell does that mean?


Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

I got visited by the old man in the morning, and later at night the two siths were waiting for me outside the house, I killed both and then looted and got a disc, I went into my inventory and I clicked use on the radial menu and the disc self destruct it self, but I still got a waypoint in coronet (because i killed the 2 siths in coronet) written something like "a waypoint discovered in the sith's datapad go find out." so I went there and the waypoint just dissapeared, but when I checked the Force-Sensitive Quest on my quest log, it checked Investigate the location discovered in datapad. I never got the mysterious datapad (which is the waypoint to the village i think) and I am confused.. what to do now?

Reccomend u destroy the WP in ur datepad and u are going to have to wait for the 2 sith guys to attack u again...if u want to wait, then fill out a csr ticket telling them that ur wp is bugged and they might do something for u as they did for a guildmate of mine..so those are ur choices..

well the problem is that there is NO datapad in my datapad! I tried deleting the wps, but they come up again whenever I travel from planet to planet or city to city..

Maybe I should try deleting the force crystal?

That might be option also...just remember ur going to have to wait for the old man again so anywhere from now to 3 days plus another 3 days for the sith guys...I reccomend filling out a csr ticket, u might get lucky and help u even though it is the holidays but u might be able to get in before the phase shifts and save urself 3 weeks
