Just another Jedi nerf.. *walks away to play guild wars*
What you meant to say was, "Another bug exploit gone." Enjoy.
It never ceases to amaze me that people always complain about bugs in the game, yet, when SOE gets around to fixing a known bug that some have been exploiting , people scream out they just took a nerf. While I can understand people going stark raving mad over wasting millions upon millions of credits, I don't feel sorry for them. Exploiters are bad mmkay?

The Mabari Belt has not been reclassified. It has always been armor.
If you equipped the belt and then a piece of armor, and then un-equipped the piece of armor, you would have been told "You are still wearing armor", etc.
There was a bug which caused the armor check not to count belt, boots or gloves depending on the order in which they were equipped (or un-equipped). That bug was fixed in pub22, so now the belt always counts as armor, regardless what order you equip it in.
Mabari "Armor" Belts are now working as intended post publish 22.

and all of this animosity could've been avoided if the highlighted part had been stated from the beginning. As it stands right now, all of us figured that Marbari belts had indeed been converted to clothing once the CU hit.
But whatever you just have to roll w/ the punches....

Because I am quite happy with where the game is headed. I can see that SOE is committed to the long term success of SWG. The DEVs are doing a great job in making the right changes to make the game last. I see more and morenew people come into the game everyday because SOE has done great things withGeorge Lucus's body of work. I for one am very happy and hope to be a part of this game for many years to come. DRIVE ON SONY and THANK YOU LUCAS ARTS!!! you are doing a great job!

No it is to affect anyone not certified to use that armor.
TKA cannot use armor so they are affected also. I bet others with no armor certs are affected.
it is not a NERF. We all knew it was an armor item and jedi are not supposed to wear armor. It is a fix plain and simple.
If you were using one on your jedi you should have known better. We all know were were getting around the system that might eventually get fixed.
You are not listening. I picked that belt for my BH because it has no condition, basically an ADK piece of clothing. Jedi as well picked the belt because of this reason. It had nothing (for the most part) to do with AA's. Point in fact I sold another Jedi a +20 speed AA BUT I gave him a choice between a CA or AA. He picked the AA because it could go into the belt that was basically ADK'ed for free. My point is it seems the ONLY real profession (don't know of many TK complaining seeing how they Mastered another profession therefore have Armor certs anyways) affected by this change is Jedi yet the reason why it was picked to begin with is still being exploited by non-Jedi(the zero condition).
Everyone keeps saying it's armor, yada yada yada. That is such a stupid argument when in the end, the same mods that are in AA can be in CA. Could I bring up Ubese, well sure but would it really matter to you anyways? You're obviously ok with nerfing anything to do with Jedi so it really doesn't matter.
Why would I, I am a Jedi.
I dont want nerfs, but this is not a nerf.
It was a bug that allowed anyone to wear a particular armor item.
1) Jedi cannot wear armor
2) jedi knew full well it was a bug going into it.
The chose to handle the ubese shirt differently when fixing that. They chose to reclassify that as cloting.
And yes the same mods that are in AA's can be found in CA's just one is placed in ARMOR and one is placed in CLOTHING

Shirts and Bando's were changed, but they still required people to use clothing attachments after the conversion. A lot of Jedi have bought AA's for going into mabari belts, so even if they are re-classified as clothing, they're going to use CA's. I do think they should have converted them into clothing and kept the enhancements already on there, but in the end, this is fixing a bug. Jedi weren't meant to be able to use AA's in the first place, since they were never supposed to be able to wear anything classified as armor.
Thus, allowing them to keep the enhancements that they got because of a bug seems a little imbalancing for the future. Now, new Jedi and old Jedi have a balanced playing field, because neither new or old Jedi will be able to make use of the enhancements that were allowed to be used via a bugged piece of equipment.
Your post doesn't make a lot of sense. You state that the shirts and bando's where changed to require the use of CA's, but you forget they used to require AA"s. You also that a lot of Jedi have purchased AA's, but if the belts are changed they will use CA's. We are asking for the change and don't care they will use CA's just like the shirts and Bandos. You then go onto say that converting the belts would be unbalancing for the game. How is converting these items unbalancing and the conversion of the other two not?
From reading all of these posts, it seems people don't want this done because it gives them some type of pleasurein seeing jedi get shafted and having to eat all the hard earned money or time they have spent on those items. If peopel truely believe that the belts should not be able to be worn, why are you not out crusading to have PSG's removed along with the shirts and bandos? I can understand not allowing us to wear armor belts that have stats, but mabari belts do not. They are just like any other clothing belt in the game.
True other than you can slap AA on them which should never be able to be worn by jedi period.This should not even been an argument...
Sadly what will happen next will be jedi screaming for nerfs to jedi that happen to have good pearls
