Why, besides the obvious model problems, are wookies and ithorians the only species to get armor with some race specific qualities? I have been a mon cal since day one of this game and I am very disappointed not to see some armor with the mon cal influence to it? The mon cal ships had very specific design cues to them that made them very unique and appealing. Wouldn't you think that this same quality would be transferred to their clothing/armor? Instead we cannot wear most helmets without looking like giant walking footballs. Ever seen a mon cal in a ubese helmet? Trust me you don't want to!


Are we to beleive that Mon Cal's walk around with exaggerated helmets/bracer's etc that just don't fit them? Combat is really ruined for me sometimes when I get an outfit i like my character in, but have to change over to armor and look like a complete goof. I wanna see some more species specific armor! Something that has a story, like the cerimonial wookiee armor!


We have all seen the concept art and want all our characters too look as cool as, we know you guys can make them. Give us some new options! Its been quite a while for us ugly neglected fish!

I feel your pain man, I too have the same concerns as a Fellow mon Cal. though I do say we look rather niffty in a bluish or greenish Chitin suit. with other option being padded or comp.

and lets face it, we look totaly bizare in Bonr helms.
meh, maybe they'll have pity on us with customization.

at least you don't have two sensitive body parts dangling out of your helmets like I do

ttrue. least you got cool head dress. Heck Shades would be nice. Dant and tat are nasty on the cali eyes man. there is just soo much protection that chitin visors give.

is it just me, or Mon cali minorities in this game.
did someone balst out homeworld and not tell us?
