Curious if there is a market for armor like this.


Mabari:


Special Protection:

Blast 5%

Heat 17%

Kinetic 32%

Energy 4%


Effectiveness:

Cold 27%

Electricity 27%


Vulnerability:

Stun

Acid

Lightsaber


With the energy effectiveness in it, it covers two of the main damage types. Maybe good for people not wanting heavy armor but a little protection for running low end missions or checking harvs?

Throw a couple suits on the vendor and see if they sell. Each galaxy is different. On Kette, I would say they won't sell fast, but will likely sell. I just put base 25% Mabari on the vendor today. I had gotten an order for 5 suits, so made some for the vendor, too. Last time I had time to make Mabari it sold in about a week.

That's really good kinetic for mabari, and excellent armor for beginners.

It might sell really well, but not a lot of cash.

I'm very appreciative that one of the major AS on Corbantis sold Mabari when I was just starting out.

Isold maberi on several servers. I used to sell it on Intrepid for 50k a suit if it was enhanced, 25k unenhanced. I sold for 10k a suit unenhanced, 15k enhanced, on Kauri, Chimaera, Shadowfire. On test, it's 3k a suit reguardless ( when I make it). I've never had any problem selling it. Make sure you color it, non default. People buy it like crazy in bright red/black, imperial purple/black, red/white etc.... It can look really cool, and it's disposable. With most people buffed, it can be better than ubese, simply because it's more disposable. Maberi is cheaper than a buff, takes 50% of the damage off the top, and can be thrown away afterwards. Seriously, I've made more credits off maberi than any other armor....

I'd encourage this Its good armour and there is little in the way of non-Composite Armour on our server (infinity). you need to make sure that price is right and you could make a packet out of the niche non-composite armour market.

I'm starting an armor vendor west of mos eisley selling mabari with an 18% base and some ubese armor. I'm going to be selling all armor types...eventually. But selling the mabari for 10k a suit, as I'm just dumping my sub-standard hides on that. I figure that I won't be making much profit anyways, so why waste my good hide on it? I am also selling ubese armor on a low scale at 50k per suit. Sorry I don't have specifics on me as I'm at work, and I may even change to a lower-quality wooly and drop the kinetic protection a few %'s to keep my prices low.
