Now all you need is some armor that we can wear besides composite. Everyone is getting sick of wearing the same high end armor.

I'm hoping for the 2 more armors that gives us (head to toe) high protection (maybe one with high protection against kinetic and stun.... the other armor very similar to composite).


Maybe a space-man type outfit? Or maybe a Japanse Kabuto style?


I hope the armor supports Krayt upgrades, BE upgrades, slots, etc.


How about letting the Wookiees wear sungards as well (ones that support BE enhancements)?

( Maybe one day these ideas will be considered or implemented. Bump it, please? )

What should have happened from the beginning in order to make up for the fact that wookiees had no armor is to give wookiees and additional 200 or so stat points that could only be distributed between health strength and constitution. Also, the trandoshans should have recieved an additional 25 or so points with the same restriction. It's utterly ridiculous that a huge towering wookiee and a small bothan can have an identical stat pool.

I for one feel that the concept of the Armor is not based on Lucasfilm. I think that it was a decision based on the forums. In one of the series of Star Wars Trilogy series, Chew did wear a bounty hunter armor. Its a sad state of affair, when you can put all races into the same armor except for the wookiee. The armor is about the most funny looking thing I have ever seen, and will cause more of a problem from the wookiees player being such that it will be the only armor available for us. You can put a fish, and a lizard race into the same armor, but not a wookiee. The galaxy can build Star Crushers, but can not put a wookie into a set of usually armor that is in the game now.


It really looks like something that a wookie would wear to a young ones birthday party for fun. There are alot of wookies playing feel the same way, Kashyyyk was freed from the Imperial stronghold, and had years to catch up with the rest. With the support and guildance of the Republic; why would they wear just theuseless armor compare to what is out now, and why would if just be the wookiees to settle for such a armor made from natural products?

Personally I think this is a step in the right direction.

Will wookie armor be craftable only by wookies (similar to bowcaster) when it goes to LIVE?

Yonv I disagree completely.



I would HATE to see wookiees running around in any type of Human Armor. How do you know that thats not just the outer coating? How do you know there isnt different metel protection types UNDER it? Plus we havent seen concept for the others, the first wont be the only type.

I like the armor there and it really looks great in that ingame comparison Although I don't like the mouthguard piece, otherwise, it looks ok.
