I still dont see why the Devs didnt make BATTLE Padding and the Travelers helm armour right at release. SUre make it low protection like chitin or mabari, but at least its something.

No offence ment to the artist, but it looks like something you'd dress a wookiee child in for a fancy dress party, not to go battle in. Wookiees are a strong and proud people, not the laughing stock of the galaxy. Jar Jar holds that title. The armour would have been developed by the wookiees to aid them in combat agains the creatures that inhabit Kashyyyk. I don't care about the stats, I'll let everyone else rant about them, but the look of the armour is .... well .... pants.

George actually approved that? (does he approve of this game? if so have him give me a call I would like to discuss inconsistancies of the movies and this game from ciematic points)







Dude .. the Man Approved Jarjar Binks.. What was left of the Old George was killed by Ewoks. It is truly a day long remembered. the HUGE Galactic Empire.. Walked on by a band of carebears. So sad..

it still will never look as stupid as a wookie wearing a chefs hat and tunic.

I certainly hope the Devs arent paying attention to some of my rather less-than-gracious wookiee brothers (and the jealous non-wooks)


the armor looks cool!


and even if it didnt there's not a SINGLE wookiee here that cant say they wont be sporting it in PvP at least until the next set comes out....


the comical thing about that picture is the pose and gross deformity of the wookiee wearing the armor


and I have to admit I wont be going w/ that color, given the choice


but nobody on these boards can talk smack about the Mad Skillz of the art team in this game and thats a fact

This was a joke for us right? No thanks, I'll stay the un-armored wook if that's what it looks like.



Come on Devs, y'all can do better than that!!!

LOL In case no one has said it already, the armor looks like a Wookie attacked by a Pier One store.

Wow im a wookie and i didnt think we all complained this much its rediculous we wanted armor and we got it who cares what it looks like they said this wouldnt be the best armor and that we would get more wich is great just be glad we got it and if you dont like it to bad dont wear it nobody is forcing you to just wait till we get more the devs said it looks alot better ingame and that the next armor is alot cooler so just shut up and give it a chance thats why its called CONCEPT art not this is exactly what your getting art so just chill before we get nothing again.

WHAT YOU NEED TO REALIZE IS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wookiees, first off, and formost are the most skilled hunters, their home planet kashyyyk, its a world of trees, and wookiees live in the canopy, they are trees so huge we can't even relate to any thing on earth, they go down to the lower levels to hunt, and no they don't use armor on their home planet, but they do hunt where no one, not even the empire will dare go....

The reason for armor is exactly what wookiees in this game want it for, to compete offworld with other races, not all wookiees are native to kashyyyk, and they don't use it on kashyyyk so why should it be so primitive crap? wookiees are not a primitive race, they simply are such a strong one they don't have the need for all medicine and metal doors and things weeker races like humans do.... so why are we getting this armor thats unnatural for a wookiee to wear on his home planet, has no need, the truth is if a wookiee ever got in close enough combat with some thing of the lower levels of kashyyyk, and it hit him, it'd all be over, so there is no need for it... except off world, and wookiees work on hyper drives, and any thing else they want.... seriously, wookiees are **edit**ing smart

They ran Wookiee Armor past LucasFilm Limited's art department. It checked out.

Oh wait, I forgot. You know more about Star Wars than LFL does.

This is absolutely the worst concept art I have ever seen in my life, and I saw a few...


Darn, the mighty wookie appearing quite the village idiot. Only SoE could accomplish that. Congratulations.



Kuti d'Loongze.


Ps. You CAN actually make primitive looking armor that would not look hilariously doll-like.



This is not the signature you are looking for...
