Merchant Archive

Does anyone know of a webpage with screen shots of all the avialable vendor races? I have to admit that I'm largely unfamiliar with the names of races in the Star Wars universe, so I never really know what I'm gonna get when I create a new vendor
Thanks,

Same here... Ive made a vendor of each race... and liked a few of them.

Now with the bug that has all male vendors coming on bald and fat.. i have to wait to hit tier 3.. to look at new options..

I have 4 vendors right now.. and when i get 5th.. id love to not half to make it 15 times to see what it looks like before i place it.

Also.... Whats with the pink pants and shirts all the time?

All the vendors... outside of my twi'lek female are emmencely obesce, and quite ugly. As Master Merchant, I have all the options available and none of them are pretty. Lets just say, Lucas created Star Wars in his image... (Fat, Ugly, Balding, and wears pink)

It isn't really that they're all fat. It's that they're random. Let's say there were 10 levels of weight, and only 1 and 2 really look thin. The rest look fat, to varying extents. That would only give you a one in five chance of getting a thin vendor. Those are figures plucked from the sky, but it's the basic principle. Most of the weight selections at character creation look fat. The same goes for things like the clothes and colour schemes. It is random what colours you get, and so not all of them will be nice. It does seem possible to get all the available weights, heights and colours, if you reroll enough.

I personally think it's better to have to reroll a lot to get what you want, than to not have the option to get what you want. When I first placed a mon cal, they all looked the same. They always wore the same clothes, and were drab brown colours. The only thing that changed was height and weight. Now, I can have a mon cal of any colour, with a bit of work.

The no hair thing is obviously a bug, but the rest seems to randomise just fine. I rolled a lot of vendors to get my current ones, and had a full range of weights, colours, antennae sizes, etc, come by as I aimed for what I wanted. I suspect the limited default clothing is intentional, to give hiring four more of a reason to exist.
