I think its only fair thatif the combatprofessionsare required to wearall the cool armor, then dancer should be a requirement to wear dancer clothes.

Doors should always swing both ways (like most dancers i know)


kthnx

That might be inappropriate if it wasn't sooooo true....

If this were indeed to be the case, then it would almost have to be entirely new clothing items, along with MAYBE the leotard and fleshwrap...

Tailors wouldn't take kindly to having their customers potentially taken away... niether would the people who wear the clothing!

But think of it this way: Clothing is just that: Clothing. Anyone can put on a shirt, pants, dress, etc. Armor actually restricts movement, vision, mobility, etc. This perhaps requires some training to get used to. I suppose complex outfits might too, but somehow I just don't see it as quite the same.

I have to agree here... clothing is so basic and simple that everyone should be able to do it...

I can think of a few items that perhaps might not be, like that picture of the mon cal female in that outfit which pops up here every so often, but in general, no.

Well i have to disagree, the majority of 'dancer' clothing - fleshwrap - exotic leotard - Revealing skirt- most of the bikinis, theyall take a certain amount of skill to wear correctley without 'fallout'


I'd like to see the Marines be able todo their stuffsporting anice pair of heels.


Explain again the difference?


(disclaimer- both of the above posts were written with some amount of sarcasm and perhaps just a little bitterness thrown in to make things interesting)

I like the idea of entertainer based clothes or accessory certification. Just like clothing is just clothing, armor is just armor. I dont' need to know how to weild a weapon to put on armor, yet the cu says I do. So they can implement some verison of this for the entertainers, and crafters as well.

The idea of clothing certs is amusing. I've mastered dance 8 times now and never wore a fleshwrap, leotard, or hawtpants to do any entertainer level dances. I've always thought that people who did looked rather silly...sort of like a toddler clomping around in her mother's high heels and feather boa.

If the logic behind armor certification is that you need skills to properly don and use certain armors, that logic should hold true with certain clothing items.

"Armor actually restricts movement, vision, mobility, etc.".


THAT explains why the Stormtroopers couldn't hit a thing. The Empire put the design out for the lowest bidder, didn't they?


Seriously, isn't it also taking away from Armorsmiths as well? But we can throw around justifications on both sides till the CU is on our computers. What I want to know is,of all the options we have, what is the most "Star Warzy"?

"I'd like to see the Marines be able to do their stuff sporting a nice pair of heels."

You'll be surprised....

Something I think the devs really oughta take into consideration is "prop armour/weapons". Slightly different looking, non-combat variations that can be used to RP or in this case, Dance. Or at least something along those lines...the CU is restrictive enough with "weapon tiers"...I think its overly excessive with such restrictive nature on equiped weapons/armour...
