Ok Im making Tantel right now with lightsaber resists (and stun oddly enough).
Interesting.
Probably a bug and it will probably shift away to vulnerable.
Also notice that Tantel is still affected by the old bug where if you layer it for an attack type that is found in the special resists it doesn't add to what the base has in protection like composite does.
Example
I added a 5% kinetic layer (did it to up the base by 4.75%) and the resistance for kinetic is only 5% even though the base resists for this armor is 28% and when I added points to the resistance the special protection to energy went up but the kinetic did not.

this isnt a bug, all armors are like this except composite. Try getting high base ubeswe, your kinetic wont go up.

tantel will shift LS to vulnerable.
i made some average tantel, 19% base to everything (including LS.)
i went to bed, woke up, logged on, looked at my tantel and it still had 19% LS effectiveness.
i put it on my vendor, went and mastered fencer, come back, took my tantel helmet off the vendor, oops, guess it now has LS vulnerability.
pretty sad you can't have 19% protection against a lightsaber in just 3 of the 9 locations. but anyways, it's not like the armor bug they described on the patch screen. wonder how many months this bug will continue to eat away at the game.
renea,

justa don't you mean something other than kinetic for ubese? Kinetic is the normal special protection...

that is why he said kinetic, any armor other then composite you basically choose 1 or the other special or base.

Heh, the devs said they removed the LS resist from tantel. I guess they're just too lazy to fix the schematic, so they just make it so it shifts LS to vuln after crafting and selling.
