Armorsmith Archive

Understand something, it's not a bout the credits.

I would love to have new armor just to make it. If wookiees need it, then so be it. Unfortunaly, we are one of the last profession, if not the last, on a long lists of professions that need more content.

I would personally like to thank all of the wonderful Armosmiths who have provided feedback and showed their support. What a great bunch of guys.

if wookie armour means more stuff for me craft, then im in

you have my support

I'm with you 100%

I'm a Wookie and Master Armorsmith. I make armors for everyone but I have to use Personal Shields to get some protection.

The ham increase does not compensate for the lac of armor.

I belive that they will give us armor but I also belive that will take months to arrive.

Have Fun

As a master armorsmith, i would also like to be able to make new armor. And i know that there are tons of wookies that want armor. But its not just a matter of the devs going "poof"heres new armor. Its also a matter of the increased hams that wookies get (devs stated due to the lack of ability to wear armor). Will wookies get armor that is equivilant to the armor everyone else gets along with the increased ham stats, will the armor not be as good but at least provide some more base resists, will the armor be as good as any other armor with wookies getting a slight decrease in their hams.....

the debate could probably go on and on. Im a firm believer that everyone be treated equally and fairly but if they are to fix this issue, i hope that they put the forethought into it to fix it correctly the first time instead of "underfixing" or "overfixing" it and having to mini-nerf it into functionality.

but also, like it was stated above, this is one of the last professions that is slated to receive new content.

I for one dont want to see wookies wearing armor. It wouldnt look natural.

I think wookies should get natural armor. I dont feel wookies would want to wear clothing and armor anymore then a dog or any animal would.

On the other hand, I dont think all races should be created equal. Each race should have advantages an disatvantages. And if in the pc's opinion the disatvantages outweigh... Then select another race. And as far as balance of the races go. My thoughts are, the real worlds races arn't balanced, why should the game be?

I personally dont think wookies should be able to wear armor, well atleast not all forms, i think if we do get a set of armor to make for wookies it should be very limited in the number of pieces, the resists on the pieces, but i have to agree with the wookies, their slight increase in HAM isnt worth the lack to wear armor. Better then armorsmiths crafting their armor I would rather see tailors having to get protective layers from armorsmiths so when they make wookie clothing they can have resists on them. I think that would be more reasonable protection then seeinga wookie running around in a full suit of armor.

Quite right, the races should not be balanced. You should have to reroll as a trando or wookiee if you even want to consider being a brawler profession, and have to seriosuly consider it if you want to do any sort of combat whatsoever. The races should be unbalanced...they are just unbalanced in the wrong direction at the moment.

See a problem?

Why shouldn't wookies have armor? Because we don't see it in the movies? The only armor we see in the movies regularly is Storm Trooper armor. Well since the Empire doesn't like non-humans there aren't many suits around big enough to fit Chewbacca.

It makes more sense for wookies to have armor than it does for them to have clothes. Armor would actually serve a functional purpose for them.

Without armor, how is a wookie supposed to last more than 10 seconds in places like the Geonosian Lab? I can assure you that their increased stats are insignificant compared to what they would need to be able to fight a Kliknick with 40,000 Health or a Kwi with 27,000 Health.
