Thread: On Mandalorian Armor
I too happen to be a casual gamer, well sort of. What i mean is im not grinding 24/7 sometimes i might be doing other things. I AM NOT A GRINDER, and am not good at it
today i just reached the first 2nd level profession that grasped my interests. I have only been playing for 3 weeks and in those three weeks i was a brawler, then picked up scout then got medic and reached 4/3/4/4 and novice BE and became novice CH. I reached teras kasi novice in about a week then got to 2/2/2/0, like i said im not a grinder and scout 4/0/4/4 and this week (the past 4 days) i have become a ranger 0/2/4/0 mastered scout and mastered marksman for the only proffesion i really wanted...Bounty Hunter. I was aware of all the bugs and problems but i was not hindered by them, i knew what i wanted to do. I will not be a dabbler i plan on MBH and maybe take up medic once again. I just reached Novice Bounty Hunter and wear that tag proudly.
So having that said i just want to say that i am with all the others that think Mand. armour should be a cert. i dont know much about crafting in the aspect of AS, or schems so i wont say much about that but the armour should be certed for MBH/Master Commando, yes i probably don't know what im talking about and go ahead and flame me. Yes i know, the only BHs that wear Mand. armor are the Fetts, but how many d4mn entertainers do you see wearing Mandalorian armor.
why should only MBHs or MCommandos be certed for it? Because think about Jango/Boba they were 1337 Bounty Hunters (MBH) and everybody has seemed to leave out Greedo, the Rodian BH that stopped Han in Mos Eisley if you dont remember. Why did Greedo not have BH armor? because he was an ameteur. And yes i remmeber all the BHs on the super stardestroyer that Vader brought in to find Han Solo, Boba was the only one with Mandalorian armor and he was the only one smart enough to find Solo when he ejected with the garbage before lightspeed.
What im really trying to say here after all this long typing is that, Yes ONLY 2 BHs wear Mandalorian armor, but they were the ONLY elite Bounty Hunters out there, therefore i once again say that it should be certed for Master Bounty Hunter and Master Commando. h3ll i wouldnt be opposed to ONLY MBH, give them some love for pete sake.
just had to say all that...commence the flaming

So you argue that the power gamers get everything, that the rich 'uber' smiths get everything. What abt us u say, dont we pay the same monthly fees? These very same 'rich' smiths and power gamers invest their time and effort into getting something and somewhere. Success does NOT come cheaply nor easily in this game. You either have to farm loot over and over and over again or work like a dog crafting if you wanna keep up with demand. Its that simple - try walking into McDonalds and asking for a free burger. If they wont even give u a free burger? What makes you think that u deserve the same things that a person puts 12 hrs a day getting? You dont, its that simple really.
Then u'll argue but we have lives and work and stuff...well - make a choice then. I certainly did. I used to be a power gamer but rl work has reduced me to playing 2-3 hrs a day only. I made do, and so should you. Stop whining and enjoy the game for what it is.
Hard work should always be rewarded. Period.

Can I just say this is just another sad example of how this game fails to take in to consideration casual gamers. Before anyone starts shouting, just listen. Anything in this game that could interest Star Wars fans, is reserved for the power gamers. Let's see , I want to be a Jedi, oops, sorry I don't have 5000 hours a week to play. Ok, maybe I can get some of that cool Boba Fett armor. Oh wait a minute you have to get a schem. so some rich beyond MY wildest dreems crafter can Charge me, I don't know,lets say 5000000 creds to build it. That is if I can evenmake it through the damn quests. I don't have alot of time to play, so end up playing most times on my own. I look for groups, but most times I'm not high enough this, you don't have good enough that. So once again I ask ya, is there anything in this game that a casual gamer can enjoy that is STAR WARS related.
LoL. Read my last post above this one. Alternatively quit ur whining and join a good guild. Maybe the resident smith will help ya out. There's always something you can do abt a situation, sitting on ur hands and whining abt it aint gonna solve it. The proactive people always get more in life, the reactive ones less cuz they have missed the boat. U? Ur the stagnant kind - and these people normally get jack.

My vote for Master BH or Master Commando only for this armour. I agree that seeing ANY other profession than these would be serisously degrading for the "feel".
But: I disagree that Armoursmiths should be making uber cash for these items. Existing armour is extortionate already, I can only shudder at the thought of how much this new armour would be costing. BH and Commando's, prepare to be broke ![]()
(p.s. - I am not BH or Commando)
i like the idea of the armor lol, tho im pretty happy with my comp armor, the main part of that set id want would be the jetpack, & it would be interesting if the armor was semi customizable (cant remember if it was boba or jango but one had a flamethrower on his wrist built into his armor ala commando
then maybe the bh could have something built into the armor like that)
but the set be customizable profession based effect, so all prof can use it, but if it was made for commandos & your a bh you just couldnt use the weapon built into it to its full effect,
but seriously it would rock if you could fire your flamethrower, pistol, rifle, llc, ect. while using your jetpack lol thats the main thing i want lol, i still havent foung the last set of armor that was itroduced into the game lol, no idea the name of it i guess its bh armor or whatever, or the ris armor, heck i rarely see marine armors, i see mostly comp, ubese, stormtrooper armors, anything else i might see rarely lol i seen one set of that bh armor, & a few bone but not in along time lol, heck i never even seen marine armor yet lol
