Thread: The new robes/cloaks...
head to any tailor vendor and look for the black 'hood down' cloak.
There ya go.

Tell me about it. At least give us 200 health or something instead of 15...15!!!!! I get more wounds than that.
I like it for several reasons:
I already wear one that looks just like it. I have a hood up version that I also use when tooling around to look mysterious.
I also like it because it allows me to wear BE clothes as well as gives me more options to wear socketed clothing so I an enhance skills with tapes.
Is it super Jedi looking?maybe not. Is it real functional? yes.

You have seen the 'robes' in-game currently, havne't you? Knowing the answer to that is yes, I'll have to assume your statement was an exaggeration of the fact that the new robes are not exactly what you pictured in your head, despite the fact that they give jedi several things we have asked for, including:
1) Benefit of the regular robes (exception, 8 force regen rather than 10 regen);
2) Allowed to wear full ensemble of additional clothing (not only hat, gloves, belt);
3) Can wear backpacks; and
4) Do not look like pajamas.
There are a few things missing from these robes that we have asked for since day one, such as to have them be fully customizable (even tailor built) in color and hood-up/down selection, in addition to the innate jedi toughness and defenses that were promised with jedi robes back around Publish 9/10.
However, these new robes are hardly as bad as what we are currently using in-live. in-fact, I believe they are a dramatic improvement, albeit not as large of an improvement as they should be with regard to customization and the attached mods.
You're all missing why this cloak is better than the paddy robes...
Robes: +10 Force Regen
Cloak: +8 Regen BUT, it also allows you to wear:
Pants: +1 Regen CA
Shirt: +1 Regen CA
Boots: +1 Regen CA
For a total of +11 Regen (not counting gloves, hats, belt because they can be worn with paddy robes)
