Incase anyone missed it the Stratics Chat log is up on their site. Clicky

This chat was much to do with what was told to us in The Combat Upgrade Overveiw just incase you have been under a rock & have missed that as well.

There are a few intresting things in there but the main ones I thought I'd post the link for are:

---

*BountyGreg* Combat Revamp Question: I read the stats for species will change, does it mean trandos will finally be able to wear complete armor?

Keldarin: Trandoshans cannot physically wear boots due to the size of their feet and that won't be changing. We do recognize the game-play impact of this however and will be removing feet and hand as valid hit locations in combat. Armor will not longer be needed in those areas to be fully effective.

---

As well as the obivous thing of this that the Trandos are geting some love it looks like 4peice Minisuits will no longer work as they do now which is good in my opinion, though I do fight in only those bits when I do use armour it is something I like to see fixed.

Also:

*MRCommando* Combat Upgrade Question - The new armor, how is it being made that low-level armor is useful again?

Keldarin: So we've completely reworked the armor system from the ground up. No longer are specific suits of armor going to have set protection ratings.

Keldarin: When a suit of armor is crafted the armor crafter will have a much greater control on what the suit looks like while keeping the stats the same.

Keldarin: This means that you will be able to have low-level as well as high-level powerful armor with any appearance.

Thought I'd put that one up as well as it seems to be one of the biggest bits of information we know about armour post-CU/R/B. Though we don't know how armour will effect us yetthis is a change I'm incredibly glad to see, seeing Comp everywhere really ruins the feel of the game at times in my opinion.

I hope the Armour Document TH spoke about in a few posts earlier in the week will shed more info on types of armour & how it will effect differnt proffesions, though maybe the effects will just be hoping too much.

With the new thread on the CURB information that is known I'm unstickying this one.

No longer holding out hope, SWG will never be the game we fought so hard for, that we believed so much in. Farewell friends.

Hi,

I'm a bit confused about the timezone mentioned in Tiggs' announcement for the next startics chat.Tiggs saysthe chat would start at 5 pm PDT. I thought you change from PST to PDT on April 3. Will it be on 5 pm PST then or is it really 5 pm PDT?

Could you clarify this please?

A confused european player, who would like to know, whether he needs to stay up until 1 am or 2 am
