I have no hard evidence, and if this is not the case, even better for you Trandos and Wookies, but I am guessing that Mando armor will follow same rules as other armor. In other words, my best guess is that wookies will not be able to wear it, and that trandoshans will not be able to use the gloves and boots. I have no idea about the helmet.


I hope I am wrong, but we'll have to ask the devs about this one.

well, i have to say that sucks.


I mean, they've started giving us armor why not continue?


I dont want to start an argument, but wookiees do wear armor in the movies (or will starting in Ep3) and they definately wear it in the books (E.U mostly). O well... i wish the DEv's could just make my wookiee a human

With the new armor the devs are waisting time on adding usless patches with out fixing any thing.. they will just give it to us and not fix the class for a year or 2

Okay heres what I don't understand. The devs really screwed up with composite armor...Composite can get up to 80% on resists....What armor can be better? I'm not gonna sacrafice protection so that I can look like bobba fett... Composite is just TOO good and it doesn't leave any room for better armor. Like the devs would really give us 90%? I don't think so....






My personal thought is that it will be slightly less effective than comp, but with class-relevant bonuses. You know how the crafted demo belt has +5 thrown weapon, +5 grenade assembly etc. I'm thinking this will probably have plusses to tracking (both ranger and BH types), something from SL and um... whatever mod actually works for us!

To the wookiees who complain about probably not getting to wear Mando Armor:


You are freakin' wookiees, you knew from the start that you weren't going to be wearing any armor at all, but because of the mass complaining the devs gave you your own unique armor with 2 more sets in development.


Yes some wookiees wore armor in the books (and maybe in ep3) but it wasnt mandolorian armor. I doubt that Mandolorians ever constructed a set of armor that could come close to fitting a wookiee.


If wookiees get mando armor, i want wookiee armor.

I think I read somewhere that Mando armor is medium armor, so even if its lower in stats than comp, it is actually higher, given that comp armor is light armor. At least that is how I understand it.


One thing for sure is that it will be interesting to see what this armor really is, and really isn't, once we finally get to see a real piece.


In no way intending to hijack this thread; Do you think some people will get this armor and sell it? What balpark figure do you think it will go for?

For those that actually sell it (as I've a hunch most of it will be done by guilds that will keep it for themselves) I expect astronomical prices that make Krayt Pearls look cheap.
