This Armor Certification is a complete disaster. I was ok on the other changes, but once i saw this armor certs by profession, i just about lost it. I don't understand how you can take away RIS armor from someone that either paid alot for it or spent alot of time getting the resources to put it together. I said it before and i'll say it again, old armors should have no certs. You want to give certs to a type of armor, give it the factional requirement or just add certs to new armor. This way no one gets screwed. You just can't take away a players armor he's been using for over a year. Its not right nor justified in anyway.



OLD ARMOR WE KEEP THE SAME / NEW ARMOR YOU HAVE TO HAVE CERTS.


How brainless do you have to be to not see this is the right course of action.





This is copied from the CU documents:


New Armor Sets
There are four new complete sets of Faction armor which will be available to both Combatants (PvE) and Special Forces (PvP):



  • Imperial Reconnaissance: Armor Wearable by all species except Wookiees and Ithorians. Helmets fit Humans and Zabraks only.



  • Imperial Assault Armor: Wearable by all species except Wookiees and Ithorians. Helmets fit Humans and Zabraks only.



  • Rebel Battle Armor: Wearable by all species except Wookiees and Ithorians.



  • Rebel Assault Armor: Wearable by all species except Wookiees and Ithorians.


    In addition to the full sets that have been added, the following sets of armor have had additional pieces added to make complete sets:



  • Bounty Hunter Armor: Full Sets available for limited species



  • Mandalorian Armor: Full Sets available for limited species



  • Marauder Armor: Full Sets available for limited species



  • Rebel Recon Armor (Marine armor): Full sets available for limited species



  • RIS Armor: Full Sets available for limited species

  • RIS Armor: Full Sets available for limited species - yes if you are cert'd for it, hence the problem. No cert no armor or penalties that make it not worth wearing. Again you spend 300,000,000 to have a set made or (like me) spent weeks looting the parts needed and now I cant wear it. Not cool, not cool at all.

    Doh? Why talk of post-CU armor when I was clearly talking about pre-CU armor? The devs allready showed how the new armor protection values will work post-CU (when they showed the new factional armor)according to the plans they had then. Time will tell what really happens with armor post-CU.






    Because this thread is about CU armor

    This new armor system is really lame. I don't think that the solution to creating variety was to cert every armor piece but add alot more new armor. And as someone mentioned earlier I wouldn't mind if the new armor was certed, that would be okay.
