Yo Kaessa, judging by your template you have no need to re-roll as a gimped combatant wookiee.
Yup.. wookies makes the best NON-combant profession. MCH is a support (pet tanks, you do nothing but direct).
HOWEVER, for those that are pure combat, you bet I WILL change into a race that will not be at an advantage.

this has probably been mentioned...but i didnt wanna read every post
why cant it be like clothes in real life???
look at it this way...when a 4ft rodian can wear the same composite as a 6'2 human...why cant a 8ft wookie wear the same???
it should be like the XL, XXL, XXXL thing in real life...thats my take
but thanks for the new armor...lots...

Considering the Wookiee has the closest skeleton frame to a Human next to a Zabrak I find it very unjust that Wookiees have been flatly ignored for so long. I feel the devs attitude must be, if we ignore it perhaps they will just re-roll. That seems to be the only response you ever get.
How do Rodians get in that Armour with those dodgy faces and suckon pads on there fingers, ill never know. We need more content also, theres very little in this game for Wookiees. Its not as if Tailors cater for us, and thanks for all the content you have added like Death Watch bunker and Mandolorin Armour and RiS Armour and the stupid fraction penalty you've got. No wonder theres so many Rebels the only race which benefits from being Imperial is Human and theres alot more races in the game than that, did it never occur that maybe because every race apart from human gets a fraction penalty that every race in the game apart from Humans are gonna favour Rebels?
How come the only thing that you try to keep contuninty with is Wookiees, everything else in this game is well out of the window, you've based your assumptions on Wookiees from one character, yet in this game we try to create our own, but were limited to what we can achieve because of one Wookiee from a nudist colony.
Oh and what exactly does the creature taming bonus give us? Didn't that stop working when the devs put a end to Pokemon wars a long time ago?
Fix Wookiees before anything else, ignorance is bless, until accounts get cancelled.

Manolorian armour compatible with wookiee's, get real, there's not a chance in hell that will happen. Mandolorian armour is just another example of the lack of attention to wookiee needs, it will nerf wookiees even more.
As I said before, it seems like the devs are discriminating against wookiees. The current lack of attention to wookiees I doubt will ever change. Are the devs are the Imps, giving all this nerfy restrictions to wookiees, just a little euphamism for thought.

I suppose I will whine too. I have no doubt we will be fixed sooner or later, but the volume of our complaints might determine the if it will be sooner rather than later.
My own philosophy on this (and if anyone else has said this in the past i apologize) is that all clothing should be available to all species...but of course it shouldnt look the same on all of them. What is also biting us Wooks in the behind is the utter lack of pre-modded clothing, since our market share is low, the market doesnt cater to us. I think we should be able to equip an item, even if its a human shirt, and have a system message say "You convert that item into a wearable form" then it looks like a Wookiee piece of clothing but contains the same skill mods. Same with armor.
And yes we need our new armor...soon. I am tired of having crafters in the DW bunker, with no combat skills, lasting longer than me just because they have 80% composite.

i just ingame renderings that have been publishedin the newsletter.
the helm is too big, reminds me of Lord Blackhelm in Mel Brook's Spaceballs.
I hope they can go back to 3Dmax for 10 minutes and arrange this, or things will get hairy (get it, get it ?)

Wookiee's have been neglected this entire year. We got 1 set of armor that I am grateful for. I would have never made TKM without it but the problem is that I still dont like my character. I LOVE being human on other servers and getting to dress in whatever I want. I loved being Zabrak and having cool skills for just being that race. Wookiee's get no love and it shows. Unless you are Novice CH our Creature Taming bonus doesnt do anything. And now that the devs have nerfed and ignored the CH profession its completely worthless. There are more Jedi on Valcyn then there are CH's. I am so glad that the new jedi wear robes and not comp armor because I was going to be soooooo mad if I got my FSCS with this wookiee and was a jedi joke because I cant wear armor. I am glad the devs did that. And whoever first said this is right, wookiee's are the only thing in this game you care about continuity with. Everything else is changed from the books and the movies except for the wookiee's but if you acutally READ the books which I doubt most devs have, there was more than just freaking Chewbacca! THERE WAS! He didnt just form himself out of thin air! I have NEVER EVER seen a wookiee NPC except for, guess who, CHEWBACCA in this game. That is ridiculous. I know why they dont do that, because all wookiee NPC's would look exactly the same just like all wookiee players do.

Oh, and one more thing, there were only THREE -bacca's in the star wars universe. Bacca himself, Lobacca, and Chewbacca. Not Snowbacca, and Dancingbacca and Jimmybacca. If youre going to make the wookiee's the only thing sticking with continuity, do it right.
