I've been researching armor lately. I came to a pretty discouraging conclusion. Any form of Bountyhunter armor is regarded as Assault. I would say for a class that is bent toward PVP, why is it not Recon or at least Battle? Assault makes no sence to me. The BH line has no specific weapon that it specializes so by default it should have battle. I seriously think the corrospondent should petition for this change. If anything, incorporate better/more reconnisance armor. Right now the only armor PVP worthy is faction armor. Its the ONLY armor that can have advanced cores in it when Battle and Assault armors have many choices. I just find it ironic thatBHs bent toward PVP and get stuck with the worst PVP armor mitigation as well as thier special Mandolorian Armor is ONLY Assault as well. I think its crap. If you want to be a freelance BH, you will never get good armor if you go Recon. Best you can get is single layer recon (Mabari, Tantel, Ubese)


Conclusion: Petition for BH mitigation to be changed from Assault to either Recon or Battle as well as our Mandolorian and for an Additional Advanced Core Recon armor set instead of Faction Armor only.

I agree. But most BHs have other elite combat professions.

Like rifle or partially other things but do not get full mitigation to it. It just limits you and boxes you into a type of armor. I want battle, but i get to choose from assault and recon. But assault is not good for PVP and recon you only get faction armor. So, i get one of two choices out of the varied range of armor out there. Mitigation should start at sub-classes and then it would balance things out. To be fully mitigated to a specific type of armor you have to be a specific class and fully spec'd in it to master. I do not see the logic in forcing people into cookie cutter templates just to beat the mitigation. Who is willing to PVP ina suit of armor that drops movement,accuracy,speed by 15+ percent and expect to do well?

I'm MBH and MC and I can wear either assualt or battle. For PvP I have crafted stormtrooper (battle) armor, as it is ranged damage that I'm more concerned with there. For PvE I use composite (assault) armor as kinetic from melee is a bigger concern.


The problem is that I don't feel right doing bounties in stormtrooper armor, and the non-faction battle armors look LAME in my opinion. So, I've been using composite for jedi bounties, even though that's not the best strategy.
