i think it is cool looking but cool is not what wookies need ,for gods sake all other armor is so much better its unfair ,i am a wookie ,master tka,master swordsman and master brawler and i can not kill a elder but any other species that wears composite armor kills them with limited damage done to them and i just find this game to be getting worse as the days go buy ,instead of making the crap armor how about making some that can honestly help the wookies instead of the junk you keep making . im just about fed up with it and if nothing changes soon ,me and alot of other wookies are gunna just quit the game .. the people who do the work on this stuff need to get there crap together cuz in my eyes the game is just getting worse not better/ sorry if i sound bitter but i put alot of time in this game and all i see is wookies getting the shaft,for imp points and armor and ranged weapons

VERY UPSET WITH THIS GAME!


Kept grudge til now....now is getting annoying....i want a fair chance to fight everything else that others have been long been getting the chance to do.....10 MONTHS LONG TO BE PRECISE!!!!!!!


I've been playing this game since 1st week of release and have kept my original wookiee this whole time. Is always promises from you devs that almost always seem to take longer than inspected (maybe you over estimate your teams talent?). What i do know for fact is after the little wookiee strike, it only took your team a few weeks to muster us up some bs armorto bide yourselves some more time. I'm curious what the devs are thinking along the lines with wookiee's lately, which seem to be still a dying out breed even since, sorry to say, your lame attempt of some armor. Devs knew this whole timeour gripes were not geared toward just having some armor, it was having a wookiee comparison to advanced composite which has for so long dominated this game. I'm still glad to say that ive mastered almost every combat profession besides the bh, pistoleer, and carbineer. Granted I did all of 'em besides one without armor because we had NONE at the time. Would of been nice to have some armor than too, just so i could hunt whatothers couldfor biggerand faster exp gains than me but hey i just pay the same as everyone else so why should the game be fair to me *that's sarcasim incase you don't notice*. My question for you dev's is what do we have to do to become an equivilant when it comes to big game hunting and pvp, another server strike perhaps?, is all that seemed to work the first time. Were real fast to come up with another concept art to keep us trained dogs, sorry wookiees in check for a bit. But now this is getting rediculous been over 2 months since that concept art of the hunting armor and not any screenshots, stats, time or anything!!! I don't even see why you continue to add harder dungeons and such and continue to leave the wookiee fighters of the game as like pet's, droids, or npc soilder's. Might as well just put us up as factional pets to be bought! Slight over exaggeration but definatlely not by much. I'd say i will give this game til pub 10 and if you don't have wookiees balanced by this time i am gonna leave this game and im sure many other hardcore wookiees that have payed you for several months will also go soon if not fixed. I'd like to take this time to thank SOE for having a gimped player that cannot til this day have a fair chance at fighting high lvl mobs or in pvp. Has been so fun paying you all $200 dollars of my hard earned money for....oh yeah i remember for lots of bugs...some well spent cash 8p


Hmm about this easy equation were gonna say x=avg doc buff which avg is about 2100 right now so x*6=12600 we will make this value y=total value of buff .......now if wished can add in musician and dancer buffs..to further y's value...butI will not for most do not wish to take the time it spends to get one and usually just subsitute food or muon.....and also if added in equation would make wookiee armor even better....k now with our 12600 base value of y to work with, we can now take that and add it to every profession in the game beside a wookiee....total it up and get an avg...trandos, however mess this curve up slightly cause they wear no gloves or boots(which is still odd to me i have yet to see a foot or hand hit, much less an upper arm hit to a lower arm hit. Im just gonna make a guess here and say avg normal stats of rest of species avg 600, ifyou all really want i'll figure it out to the T. Continuing with my theory 600*9=5400 will name this z= total avg nonbuffed-nonwookiee. K so now will take z add to y for a total of 18000 pts now the wookiees avg is higher yes. We get the credits of 700 more sp than u all do so we are now at 18700 total. According to this calculation we are now only approximatley 3.9% stronger than any other species...this is how most people in the game fight when fighting big game or pvp...anyone with intelligents knows you will not survive without buffs in these situations. Granted unbuffed with my 600 base which is an approx guess on the rest of the species makes us almost 89% stronger. ONLY PROBLEM ANY REAL FIGHTERS DO NOT BIG GAME HUNT OR PVP WITHOUT BUFFS!! and in that case where we are all buffed and only not even 4% stronger still are vulnerable to 4 attacks that adv comp can take and adv comp is anywhere from 20-90% stronger defending every attack it takes even against our ceremonial armor...sorry that does not compare to our almost 4% advantage while buffed. So i can still say your stronger than me atleast 16-86 percent buffed. Want to see how that feels like fight a wookiee unbuffed with equivalant weapons and skills and see who wins everytime. Sure plenty programmers did your algebra is a must for computer programming so why can u not see this equation does not add up and you continue to waste more of our wookiee time which help to pay your checks.


Know this is kind of ruff draft...but it does give the basic feel of how us wookiees have to deal with compared to others and i for one am sick of being underrated cause i am a wook. Do what you say your gonna do devs....dont do partial..makes you all look that much worse.

QUOTE Thunderheart: is not exact but basic from boards.....will see what i can do as far as i believe it was screenshots of the next armors...with next fridays publish that friday was 4 days ago and not a word, ooh jedi notes came out.


Why cause more noobs complain about how they want to become jedi without grinding? Thought this was stated on the box and in the book that not many will become jedi and that it was basically a hard path to begin with..im really even doubting this new system coming out. What will quests be now...my lame guess an alternate way to grind. Go to talk to npc for your quest for your skill box.....what do i think he will say...I need you to create me a advanced probot with a medical mod chip of 110. If they even do this i am gonna be real upset cause this is not an alternative to grinding will just be a way to force you to grind.


And hey i tried to start off proper english in beginning....failed at end...frustration tends to do that to a person...but is still damn readable


WILL WOOKIEES GET THIER REVENGE....MAYBE NEXT YEAR 8P

Not being able to wear a crafters apron really sucks, The whole issue concerning what wooks can wear is just crap, we can't wear nothing, AAAARRRRGGGGHHHH, so god damn annoying, If I was a wook in rl, i'd make myself wear a crafters apron and force it on till the seems split and the pockets fall off, or I'd get a tailor to make one that does fit me, why the **edit** can't wooks wear crafters aprons anyway, it's just another instance of crapness in this game, totally stupid and unfair, a needless restriction. Give us wooks decent armour too, 22k for condition is just annoying, What stupid idiot who thought that waiting for shuttles would be an "interesting" concept in computer games needs shooting too, stupid.


Just airing my angst with stupid concepts.

i personaly dont see why the devs cant make the armorsmith and tailor at master be able to take armor/clothes with a special tool and some resources, and switch normal clothes to wook clothes/armor... perhaps a few things would be nonswitchable... but other stuff like aprons, some clothing, etc would be.... if you think about it, a fat, tall human can wear composite armor, but a skinny, short short short wook, smaller then the human, can't.... so its not the size thing..... also we can wear wook robes, but not normal robes??? they look exactly the same to me.... size and all....

also.... i dont like the look of this armor, i look like a fregin viking woook.... /sigh.. please devs, give us some love and loose the horns on the thing....

It's a good thing we live a long, long time.


Has anyone seen schematics for this stuff yet? Any idea what it is made of? I'd like to start getting some resources for it.

Well let's face it, being a Wookiee is all about being different.


We walk tall, We don'tspeak basic, we have more hair than all other races sewn together.


Yes we cant wear some stuff, wich means we cant be the best artisans, or the best fighters, or the best medics, or... Well I think you got the point.


But there is one thing we arethe bestat and that is : being Wookiees. No one else can get that away from us.


We should stop our whining once in a while and consider : we have more specific contentin the game than any other race: race specific clothes, armors, weapon( weapons if you consider the ryyk blade wich in my opinion should be usable as the bowcaster, without certification). I admit the armor is pathetic, if good looking, and the clothes are not up to the par in the enhancement department. I dont think it's too high a price to pay to be a Wookiee !



And by the way did you notice in the last Friday Feature that we are 10% of the total population ?

I'm also dying for this stuff to come out. I really hope it's a unique set of armor with its own strengths (Wookiees are supposed to be strong, remember?) and weaknesses. Though I'm guessing AC3 and 90% resist to everything is probably too much to ask Something I'm really hoping for is some armor that represents their skill with technology, which the third set of armor kind of looked like except with a bucket on his head. Anyways, a timeline on this would be excellent, as we are the third most popular species in the game...
