New Armour Functionality


New Styles



  • More Faction Armour....Snowtrooper, Hoth Padded, Rebel Padded, etc


  • KOTOR Style (Courtesy of Raptor2k1)


  • More Innovative designs...such as the BH Armour

New Designs




  • Camo Patterns


  • Modular Armour....can incoporate Looted Components, DE/WS/AS Modules, "Bio-Mechanical" Armour...such as the Republic Modded Armour from KOTOR


  • Skill Modded Armour...such as the reinforced ST Armour (reinforced chestplates giving melee defenses, layered armour giving ranged defesnes, etc)


  • Droid Augmented Armour...DE installs droid circuitry in armour as an enhancement that either reduces encumberance or gives special skill mods in accuracy/speed to certain weapons

Misc




  • Headwear/Eyewear that enhances accuracies (A la KOTOR Verpine Headband...courtesy of Raptor2k1)


  • Loot Chips that can enhance armourvia sockets...examples such as "droid fluidity in movement" which enhances balanceagainst Dizzy/Stun effects[Defense]...these can also be used in Droids(Courtesy of nbd9k)


These are the condensed ideas from this thread on the commando forum, originally started for what type of commando armour would you like to see in the game:

Some of these ideas are really cool, and could incoporate cross-profession cooperation between Droid Engineer-Armorsmith and other crafter professions (or even Docs for cybernetics). Also it can involve loot/faction schematics (such as special reinforced armour schematics that are buyable or lootable...similiar to the modded weapon limited schematics) or loot items such as droid chips/modules, more types of attachments and whatnot.


This also has been posted in theAS forums...
