These are great


Really,


THINK ABOUT IT


You can wear what is basically a padawan robe -2 regen +15 health with your CA suit -cloak slot.


That is:
+8 regen +250 force +15
Trousers
Shirt
Boots
belt
hat
gloves
bandoleer/backpack


Compared to the padawan robes:
+10 regen +250 force
belt
hat
gloves


Is no one else happy about this?


The hood is down so you can wear a hat.


I agree, a new look would have been nice, but this is still good. Means no more wearing the ugly padawan robes, who the hell wears them anyway? only jedi in the new movies. I spit on the jedi robes, and embrace the jedi cloaks... Hallaluah SOE!









yeah or you can wear a four slot one from a tailor to fill with wonderful things like jedi ca's that dont work

just FYI, I believe these 'cloaks' will be designated as a no-trade item.








Yep and where is the issue with them?

Sacrifice 1 clothign slot for an equivalent to our jedi robes. everything else can be packed with be modded 4 socket clothing for your uber jedi suits.

It sure sounds good to me.





Oh, don't get me wrong I like the idea of being able to wear more than my hat, gloves and belt. However, this is best loot in the expansion for Jedi?


I've been starving for Jedi content and unique Jedi items for a year nowbut the devs give me a cracker with extra salt.....for $29.99 lol. It was a nice idea but the fact they are just like any cloak in the game + give you the same stats as a Padywacker robe, to me that is not special. This should be more like a reward item you get when pre-ordering the expansion, not the exciting loot item Blix seems to think it is.


Again, it's nice they are finally allowing Jedi to benefit like every other profession in the game by wearing more than 3 pieces of clothing but I still don't think this should be the ultimate loot drop for Jedi in the expansion. It's not worth it (IMO) unless there are other robes thatcan possibly giveAccuracy/Speed or a secondary damage type skill (like the new loot weapons for non-Jedi *Frost attack* is one I've seen....maybe they can give us Carrot attack with the new lava crystal lol)

No i agree but im not going to throw a paddy (no pun intended) over it, when the 5 new robes were first rumoured from hacked tre files everyone hoped they would be jedi discipline specific ones as a precursor to the new frs.

Sadly we were mistaken.

I cant believe they class the "new" padawan robe as a new item though, that takes the piss. Wish theyd just grant the old FRS robes the ability to be worn at padawan. Cant be a hard change.

Oh man would that be worth paying 29.99 lol!!!!!


My old black Knight robes again......I'd be pimp and happy. Yes that would be the ultimate 'gift', sadly that's why it'll never happen.

Have the developers ever watched any of the Star Wars movies? Any of the prequals? I don't think they have. It can't be that hard to duplicate the outfits worn by the jedi in the movies. This is extremely sad. I don't care what mods these cloaks contain, they don't give us the look of jedi. While I would enjoy the benefits of mods, what is the point of having them and not looking the part? For that, just give stick figures with cloaks and all the great mods if the jedi look is not important.

Well actually this does give jedi the "look" from the films.

The clothing underneath is up to the player.

At publish 9 everyone wanted hooded cloaks over the paddy robes but they did nothing, they then released hooded cloaks with jtl and there was much rejoicing but you couldnt wear it over the jedi robe.

This is a good compromise.

I understand your point Oblox. I just don't see how difficult that can be to implement. NPC's have them. Now I understand that different races have different clothing configuration but it can be done.

these are worthless....

if the cloak can't be put on over our existing robes and we don't get new styles of robes to choose from...it jsut seems like a waste to me.

Hell my paddy robes have +10 force regen instead of a +8 from these....

I guess I should tell you Blix said these robes are for the advanced player. With my dev translator that meant the only people who will benefit are the ones who are filthy rich with uber clothes lol.

I have to admit if this is the biggest thing they've come up with for the expansion in terms of new Jedi stuff (save for the lava saber...) I will be sorely dissapointed. I was under the impression we were getting a new style of ROBES, thats what was said in the stratics interview and thats what i'm still waiting for.... I mean we dont have the FRS atm and dont look like its going to come along this side of christmas so give us something!
