this very very much needs to be instanced
thanks

I cant wait for this. looks like FUN

While the armor sounds cool, I'm a little confused about the Jet Pack...

You all do realise that the Jet Pack was a modification to the armor made by Jango? Boba was just making a suit like his dad's. If this is to be added, we should also get schematics for wrist-mounted flamethrowers and the grapple hook/ropes that where on Boba's other wrist.

I am interested in this armor as well but I really feel that SOE is droping the ball here by not having the an instanced lair. I was truely hoping that after the Bat Caves they'd have learned a good lesson. This will be a campfest no matter how large or hard they make it. Making it a certified armor would only make things worse since not all Mandalorians where bounty hunters. I'm sure that it'll be only a matter of months 'til every fifth crafter is running from harvester to harvester with their new Jet Pack.

Armor = Good

Jet Pack = Wrong

One of the forums members has written this;

I like that new pistol a lot. It looks pretty awesome. I think a good place for the cert to go is Smuggler. Smugglers don't really get too much in combat other than a few moves, plus it would be perfect with the smuggler revamp that is coming out in pub 9.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I also am excited about the new pistol, however making a Smuggler-only gun would hinder all other pistol-users, even more if they are currently using the pistoleer/BH pistol combo (which I am). Last time I looked the smuggler gets NO speed OR NO accuracy bonuses, making smuggler not exactly a combat profession, they have a few specials... which are meant to be used with other pistol professions and what-not. I should hope that they either make it for pistoleers, or maybe pistol 4 (marksman)... well thats on the pistol.

I cant believe how LITTLE most of the people know about the Stat Wars universe on this message board... Jango Fett and his son are two of the VERY FEW Mandalorian Bounty Hunters... all or most of the mandalorians were assassins or mercenaries, and just trained killers, as are all the elite combat professions in this game... and Jango had left his people behind in his late teens... if I can remember correctly... making the Mandalorian Armor BH-only will contradict so much of the universe, it would make people with other Elite combat professions very upset... I already know that if they do make it for everyone, then it will be at least one million per suit... which is reasonable, i mean, look at the price people are charging for that new landspeeder they found in the Corvette... 3 million!!! for a vehicle!!! anyway, some more of my two cents about that armor have been thrown in...

Now the jetpack... I noticed another member posted that Jango and Boba were the only Mandalorians with the Jetpack enhancement... I dont even see why it needs to be in this game... haw many other people have you seen flying around the planets in the movies??????? Exactly.......

Well thats my seconded post.... prolly wont be my last...

Can be found in SiN city 2, Dantooine... near the Imperial Outpost!

From the people who have actually played it on TC it seems that the dungeon is pretty good... If you've played it let us know. don't just say it was good or bad, give us personal experience with the cave. Too many people are getting in here and sayin' "do this, do that, and then do this again, but better this time," without even having any experience in the dungeon itself.

I read a post a few pages back that made me laugh... Sorry I don't have the quote... I'm too lazy... He said since he's a master pistoleer and pistols in BH he would be just fine withthe armorbeing BH only, unless they made it Master BH only, then he wouldn't be happy... What is this??? This don't make sense. Don't complain if you don't get it.... Ohh well... Life's a <edit> then ya marry one... Just deal with it and play....

I think this armor shouldn't be for BH only... It just don't work like that... But I don't think some regular joe should be able to use it either.... Only a master in a combat profession should be able to wear the armor excluding Combat Medics. Just seemslogical to me, witht he mando's being mercenaries. CM is not acombat profession, they're a support profession. period. And that's how they should be balanced. :-) but that's a whole other post.

The new weapons are pretty sweet.... For some reason I see smugglersgetting the new pistol that looks like a 6 shooter, but that's jut my opinion... The look of the gun just seems to fit them in my mind and pistoleers got a few new pistols...

This place is huge.

And it rocks.

This place has gotta be at least 4 or 5 geo caves all together.

The last, fairly successful, raid I was in was still going trying to figure out the puzzles and break our way through the content when our buffs ran out -- we hadn't obtained a single component for Mandalorian yet. It's that big. Also it looks like it's intended, to some extent anyway, to prevent "camping". Apparently the crafting terminal rooms only allow a limited time inside.

There's lots of great puzzles/mini-challenges (I won't spoil them for you folks yet). Lots of great fights. Best content yet, by a long shot (imo anyway). If you want to be spoiled you can check out some of my posts in the: AS, DE, Tailor, Pistoleer, Teras Kas . . . and of course Swordsmen . . . forums.

I hope this place is only an indication of things to come. Part of the camping problem is just that there are so few places to go for high-end content/loot. Get about 5 great dungeons like this going and things'll be great.

Greetings

I've read through the posts on the Death Watch bunker and it sounds great from what ive read.

A few things i hope you will do though before the Bunker goes live.

1) Make it instanced - Great job with the corvette being instanced adds strategy, lag free gaming and total emersion.

2) Have the armor certified to wear byelite combat class's only. Commando &Bounty Hunter (i play a crafter and tka incase people think im trying to big up 2 class's i play )

3) Allow Medicle droid functionality in the Bunker. The reason i have my medicle droid is so i can use it away from a medicle center the fact you have prohibited using them on the corvette is a highly annoying situation as im a Doctor and their to heal people which i cant do. Having it tell you you must be in a medicle center or near a surgical droid is even more annoying. The time limit is fine but you should be able to cure friends wounds and rebuff them so you can continue to soldier your way through the quest. Please dont make the same misstake with the Death Watch bunker. Infact please re-visit all dungeons and change them so that if a surgicle droid is present full healing capabilities are available to doctors/medics. Or at least change the message to say something like "Your Droids Capabilities are blocked here bylow levelRadiation".

The last things im hoping you will look at in time.

1) Re-visit armor -Have armor certified for class's eg.

• TKA&Fencer - Bone, Marbaleese &Paddedonly


• Swordsman & Pikeman - Bone, Chittin&Marbalese only


• Brawler - Bone only


• Crafting Class's - Padded &Marbalese only


• Commando, Bounty Huunter - Bone, Chttin, Composit &Mandolin only


• Marksman, Pistoleer, Rifleman - Bone. Marbaleese&Chittin only


• Carbaneer - Bone, Marbaleese,Chittin & Composit only

For this to work you need to make all armor crafted able to be made up to 80%+ like composit obviously depending on crafter skill and resources used depends how well the armor turns out protection and ham cost wise. You also need to make the armor bestow special protection and uniquness to the type of class that wears it.

Ok here goes my 4 cents:

Mandolorian Armor: Why should it be only BH's? It shouldn't. Plain and simple. As someone else put it we all pay the same amount of money per month per account, why should only a few be able to use this?

Death Watch Bunker: It should be instanced but it should also be scaled to be TOUGH without leaving out the middle guys. A Marksman 2/3/1/1 should NOT be able to complete it solo but say a Commando, a Pistoleer, and a CM (all non-Masters) should have a TOUGH time to beat it but have that small chance. I am no Dev but my opinion would be scale it to about a 3-4 person group, not as with the Corvette 9 Elite Masters can barely finish it maybe.

But thats just me, what do I know?
