Does anyone know weither this armor has been implemented into the game yet or not?
And if so does anyone have an idea about how much they go for.

Yes it's craftable only in the depths of the death watch bunker, sadly enough armorsmiths are not the main crafters of mandolorian armor droid engineers craft the majority of it.
It's crazy expensive due to it's difficulty to get and you can not pick any colors on it, even if you managed to get a full suit(I think only 1-2 full suits exist on any server) it ends up looking like a clown suit because of all the mis matched pieces. We have only one piece of mando on our server and were offered 150mill for it and turned it down just to give you an idea of how much it would cost. Servers that have more mando on it obviously wouldn't be as expensive as ones like ours that have very few.

The thing that gets me, and im not by any means debating that Mando armour should be hard to get because we all know its rare armour from the movies. My beef is that fact that you go to all the trouble to make it, getting down to the bottom of the death watch bunker is hard enough without having to take a crafter with you. And then when you finally get it all done and leave the bunker it your newly made mando helmet under your arm you realise just how crap the armour itself is.
I know alot of people dont care just because they have a piece of mando armour and they wouldnt be wearing it in duels or anything anyway. But this is supposed to be rare Mandolorian armour, This is an armour type that could have 80% lightsaber resistance and Jedi's wouldnt complain because they know how hard it is to get. I wasnt actually aware until i read jason's post that you cant actually choose the colour which makes it even worse...

Hmm yeah 80% lightsaber resists that makes sense...
Oh please!
Stop looking for god mode against Jedi and learn how to fight them instead.
As for the availability of Mandalorian armour, it's probably the most rare set of items on any server given the above mentioned facts about getting it. It's pretty sad, that you can't pick color on it like you can with composite (which I find a bit silly in itself mind you) since it takes so much effort to make in comparison.

Lol well i did expect someone to cry about the 80% remark and i guess you got there first. I think its far from crazy to put resistances like that on armour thats very rare to make like you stated yourself. I still want the armour to be amazingly rare tomake and your telling me as a jedi (im guessing from the crying)you couldnt deal with the one master bounty hunter on whatever server to actually get hold of a full suit of that stuff? thats pretty sad.

80% ls resistmight be pushing it a little.. but perhaps 50% .. similar to what a psg can offer. it isnt as if hundreds of bounty hunters are going to be slaying jedi all of a sudden, the armor is the rarest item on the server.. to put it into perspective.. on our server an 1100+ max damagelooted t21 exists.. with an adk this is awesome.. however theres only one..it isnt going to break the game.. neither would a little ls resist. just my ten pence.

and a 1300 dxr...and a 2200 or 2500 legendary t21 ..think muad'dib has it...ahh..and a legendary ph.. not sure who has it but it does a lot of dmg... but ive yet to see a jedi die from those...and if it happens... good...too many of'em as it is.
mando armour should have better resists..but for now lets wait for the CU.

Assumptions, assumtions, assumptions...
Assumpotions is what you pull out of your @ss when you know that your suggestion was stupid but still want to defend an unreasonable arguement.
No, I do not havea Jedi - in fact I'm playing one of the most unloved professions in the game.
Ranger 
In any case, try to explain to me why would you want a 80% on a Mandalorian armour unless you want an "I win" item against Jedi? It is so thoroughly unbalancing.Not unlikelike 80% base resist composite armour we have now that make RIS in PvP combat totally useless.More unbalancing is definately not what the game needs right now, so if you got a logical arguement above the "armour being rare" thing I'd like to hear it. Why should Mandalorian armour have lightsaber resists as high as 80%?
I could easily agree that it could reach maye 20-30% but 80% is just too much to cater a balance.

Considering how rare it is, would you not like to a BH in full matching Mando feared by all Jedi?
A high resist factor would facilitate that fear.
Jango/Boba incarnate.
Considering people are busting their asses and not even greatly close to flooding the market with it, I don't think a high LS resistance it *too* much to ask considering the flood gates opened with Jedi.
Organic control isn't working all that great, why not allow some BH's to be truly legendary?
Also the PVE factor. NPC's that use Lightsabers. Who wouldn't want a TKM / Master Squad Leader in 50 - 80% LS resist if your taking on Dark Jedi guardians?
'zactly.

I am pretty sure Mace's lightsaber slid through Jango's armor like a hot knife through butter. You could ham it up and give it a low lightsaber resist (maybe to represent the plated sections having resistsance), but high numbers would not really make sense.

Corbantis is the only server to have a full set, including belt, made. The colorscheme looks like a clown puked. I did 3 of the 4 Armorsmith pieces, including the red bicep on an otherwise dark colored suit 
Stats are 58% base/special of 65% blast/vun to stun, LS, cold and elec. Condition is 40,000
Not what i expected either but its rare so valuable
