I posted a forum earlier about new fencer weapons but this is the next on my list, if SOE is going to make a special armor for BH, Commando's, Squad Leadersand Ranger's then why not make a special armor for each combat class, lets think this over SOE, I agree that some of these classes deserve something like this, but like i said in my weapon forum, what about the fencers, were continually shut out when it comes to new things. I hope im not the only one that noticed that Heavy Swords just got their second new weapon in about a month, once again what about the fencers SOE are we just completely non existent to you because right now thats how I feel. I love fencer and wouldnt give it up but lets give some of the other profs a chance. Fencers of course aren't the only class looked down on in combat theres many more. I dont know about other servers but in my server your either TKA, Rifleman, or Heavy Swords, why? Because those of us who choose to do different profs aren't recieving anything to help us with that. I wanted to do a nightsister elder the other day which should be no problem for a master fence/doctor but unfortunately she had 100% special protect on stun, and kinetic. What am i supposed to do SOE? Yell at her and hope she dies? The point is if you give one prof something you need to give something to every other profession. If we can't use mandalorian armor you better damn well think of some kind of armor we can get thats only for us. (comments?)

Does not being able to use it mean you can't equip it or is it like equiping a weapon without a cert and having it not be as effective. If you can't even wear the armor I think that's kind of stupid. Not that I really care too much about getting mandolorian armor. I just don't understand the reasoning behind "If you're not a bounty hunter you don't have the skills required to put this helmet on your head".


As for the point of your post I agree. I think when one prof gets something new the other profs should also get something new. If not at the same time at least shortly after. I'd be happy with a better sword.

Means we CANNOT wear mandolorian armor under any circumstance unless we become masters at any of those professions.

Yeah...that's kind of stupid. I'm not a hockey player...but I'm pretty sure I can figure out how to put the pads on.

What two new weapons have swordsmen gotten? I know about the Executioner's Hack, but whats the other one? The scythe? Hasn't the scythe been around for a little while?

Everything I've seen says they were mercenaries are stuff like that. The Mandolorians were a race right? So their armor shouldn't necessarily be tied to a particular class. If you think about it that's like saying "Here, we just released the Schematics for an ancient Bothan armor, but only Smuggler's can wear it."


Again, I may be wrong in my understanding. Feel free to say so if I am.

I think it's good that only they can wear the armor. What do they have? NOTHING. Us fencers are very lucky to have 1 of the few profs that actually work like it's supposed to. Don't take away their sunshine.

The question remains, thoguh why wear armor? I usually don't, I never need it, nothing ever hits me. Use CoB and aircake, and you're fine.

fencer does not cost as many skill points as the profs that can wear mando armor.

I can wear it, but the thing is to craft it is nasty and for the stats i will stick with Comp until CB.

I believe this is accurate [not all Mandolorions were BH]. But I also believe that this particular suit of armor is labeled as Mandalorion Scout Armor, so most of the labeling does seem to work. So it is roughly appropiate for most of those professions [Commando is the one that makes the least sense, since it's not a Scout derived profession].
