Hmph. Pretty boring recon armour (except the Scout Trooper) if thats right. No Quest recon? I hope thats coming soon.

There's a peculiar absence of the Bounty Hunter armor on the list.

I find it amusing that BH's would have to get Commando to wear the mando armor under this setup...I expect a lot of this to change as testers get to that stage of the TC5.

Anyone can wear armor but you get accuracy and movement penalties. Those classes listed above get reducions to these penalties. As a result Tk's get no reductions thus are better without armor but can still wear it if they want.

Um... from the screenies I saw, BH's get Assault Armor Bonuses not Battle Armor.
There is a link in the Pistoleer Forum that shows screens of all the Marksman, Pistoleer, Carbineer, and BH Skill Trees and it shows BH's as Assault Amor.

It'll be intresting to see how this plays out. It looks like commando will be a "nuker" class(one of the higher damage professions), yet they're getting the best armor.
In most games the highest damage classes get the worst armor, and the lowest damage dealers ie healer, get the best.
Overall though, I thought I'd never see the day they would make such a huge change to this game...so far I'm loving it.
I cancelled my sub last July and thought I'd never be back to SWG, but things are finally getting shaken up..for the good I hope.
The new weapons are sweet!

Nope, their inherent tanking/defence abilities are as good as armour. Wearing armour removes the benefit of these defences however.

If, for example, you are both MS and MP and get Recon reductions for both professions do they stack? Near as I can figure it would make armor without any penalties at all if you had two Masters that both gave reductions to the same armor type.
If not though then it might be more efficient use of a second master to choose one that gave you reductions for a different armor type.

Well, I'm happy with this. Always liked Ubese Armor myself, and since Pistoleer/Smuggler get recon...
