I commend the group that designed this. I think they are in a very tough spot with EP3 having wookiee armor in it, but no where in the rest of the movies. It couldn't have been easy to get anything approved while in concept without a potential movie tie-in problem. I am sure that the designers walk a tightrope on this subject, and the fact that anything, ANYTHING, can be added, not to mention even more soon, is a great feat.


Congrats to the design team, and congrats to the Wookiees for getting this now and not have to wait a year for another movie.

I think hes talking about the drawing of the wookiee in armour that makes up the background of the links box. That armour actually would look pretty bada$$. Needs a helmet though.

If the Devs were smart they would make the coolest looking armor the weakest and the ugliest armor the strongest. Now that would mess up some people now wouldn't it. Looking leet would mean being a wuss, while looking like a wuss would mean you were leet.






i agree.... the best looking armor isnt always the best functionally.. so make it a function over form issue...

heck even make the better looking one last longer but have worse res.. and make the ugly one have good res but half as long...

i mean ...wicker baskets can protect you really well but for how long?

also


1. it says the wookiee wear it to combat the monsters on their home world.


it better have ungodly kinetic resists.


2. it should have resist to flying monkey attacks as well.

Well done! It looks good and fits to the "nature", "savage" Image of wookies plus its something different and not boring.

Again well done, devs!

Ok...so we've seen the concept art, any specific date as to when this goes live? I know its between publish 7 and 8 but will it be closer to 8 or some time in the next week or so?

Yeah, the concept art looks a bit odd...
