uhm...good idea..bad idea...


good idea: some content


bad idea: we're gonna have an imperial guard explosion(jedi anyone) whilst theyre supposed to be uber-rare

bad idea: imperial-only...and rebels dont have anything like this..so?


it COULD work if Imps AND Rebels had an FRS type system based on pvp where u would advance to be ONE of the imperial guards but can lose your job if u dont keep it up. Rebels the same but i cant imagine what name/rank it would be so that its rebel-specific.


anyways..try to expand on it..its a good start.

Your idea for the Royal Guard Uniform is very good. In fact, great! I really want to get ahold on one of those .


However, the quest rewards could be schematics for the RGU, and just like the Mandalorian armor, you would need a Tailor / Armorsmith / (Input crafting profession here) to do the full suit and gain the bonuses. But to be chosen by the Emperor, 50k Faction Points would be a little too much to ask now, wouldn't it (Depending if you are near an HQ full of Rebels :smileyvery-happy ? Why not having the player get some requirements (Badges, Duties, Professions, etc.) to become a part of the RG.


Still, it's an awesome idea! 5 for you .

Excellent idea.
I'd forget the whole rank title idea involved with this and just would like to see the quest idea implemented (including the large factional requirements before you can do it).
We'd all like to see Ranks displayed through your Title or something, but no need to combine it as something only doable after this quest.

As someone else said, instead of looting him and getting the uniform, I think defeating him and having the Emperor give you the reward after conversing would work more nicely.

I really love the idea of reaching the highest rank and building up so much FP in order to recieve an email that will open you up to this quest.
I really really like that concept!

About fairness, because this is only Imperial and there is no Rebel equivalent... great content shouldn't be left out for those reasons... I think some similar ideas could be implemented for all factions. So, no need to shelve this one for that reason, in my opinion.

Guys,

I am scanning through the movies and books looking for something special for rebel and neutrals! I need some help from both neutral, and rebel guys; tell me what part of the rebellion and neutralization(uniform, a special-vehicle, or something to that effect) that is not ingame, yet you would like to see. I am trying to make all sides feel equal with cool content or special things...please give me a hand I will take you thoughts and hopefully turn them into some really cool ideas!!!!

Do something similar for rebels and this would be awesome...


Neuts shouldn't be getting special treatment - they're purposely avoiding the GCW altogether


Rebels could have commando training where you talk with Crix Nadine or Kyle Katarnon a frigate. When you succeed, you get a cool trooper uniform.

How about the Rebel Ensign helmet/uniform, as seen on the imperial corvette?

Ok, I see where and what I should do for the rebel missions! I will begin working on a quest right away This one will be a little different from the imperial mission...but still along the same line of you something cool to wear at the end!

I think one of the points that could be easily missed is, those Rebel Uniforms are standard issue.

The Royal Guard outfit is something very special.

Those Rebel Uniforms should be in-game and readily available, not somethiing that requires a special quest.

Like I said above, This is a great idea for the Royal Guard Outfit, and it does not need a Rebel paralell to be okay.


It is, however, fun to try and come up one for the Rebel side...
So far, the only thing that I could think of was very different than the royal guard uniform.

The reward I thought of is an AT-ST that looks a bit beaten up and maybe has a Rebel symbol hap-hazardly slapped onto it near the cockpit.
This would basically be an AT-ST that the player managed to defeat (In the quest) and capture.
I'm not sure I like the idea, but it's all I could come up with.

The most important thing, in my opinion, is that an idea for the Rebel side (and possibly a neutral or Jabba Themepark side) has to reward something unique/special... not some standard issue apparel or common item. The significance of your first idea is that it rewards something very special, yet requires a serious committment in order for it to be made available.

If the Devs put in more standard Rebel items, they should not be implemented in such a limited way.
The Royal Guard outfit, however, is perfect for such a quest.
