Thread: My fear for the madelorian armor cert
What purpose does bringing the Mandalorian Armor Cert to the Elite profession of Ranger and Hybrid profession of Scout Leader? These two professions, neither of which is a novice profession, have nearly no combat ability in and of themselves. Do this mean that Mandalorian armor is to become fashionable "Dreg" wear or will the Ranger and Scout professions be "uplifted" prior to the armors implementation?

My biggest fear is that, as a Mon Calamari,I will look like a power dork in my shiny new Mandalorian armor. And that I won't be able to wear the helmet or gloves.

i think when squad leader get this , that pepole that have the armor will just become novice Sl for the cert so thay can putt it on
thay sould make the cert for master squad leader or 1 line only
Wearing Mandalorian Armor will require Master levels of the respective professions that are allowed to wear it.

Yea actully I just read a starwars comic yesterday. I forgot what it was called but a wanabee fett got a hold of the armor and jetpack and all.
I haven't read any for a while, but I think there was one like that I read before called "Boba Fett: Twin Engines of Destruction"

There is no way to contain it really. All the uber munchkins will tool around in them for a while if the stats are good. If you actually RP and/or try to "play" the game through maintaining a character,chances are you will never own one save for ebay. Hate to be pessimistic but it has been the case so far on every dungeon the devs have seen fit to bring out. I was hoping for more story arcs honestly. Well at any rate, I suspect commando to be abused a lot in this fashion due to so many of the uber munchkins toting around TKM combos commando would probably be the easiest on skill points. SL due to its ease of achievement.
HI I am back
So this has become a patetic whining of why should SL and rangers get a certification for spending over 100 skill points to become master without getting a single bit of fighting power. why not just give BH and COmmandos the abilites to use all weapons I mean why should Carbineers only get to use elite carbines Bh use them too that have a tree devoted to it!!! Hell comandos use weapons so highly complicated I am sure the simple slug thrower is a child safe gun compaired to a Acid riffle. Lets not forget that artisains can make almost every weapon in game They should Know how to use them lets give them All weapon certifications too!!!
well there thats what all you people sound like lets be realistic SL, ranger BH and commandos should have a way of distinguishing their looks from everyone. is this the bestway to do this..... maybe not but its a start to develop specific elements that only some ppl can use. shut up stop your whinning if ya don't like try not posting it under the SL profession. My fear that this armor will cause people to take this out of proportion and try to take away good ideas instead of using these good ideas and suggest sepcific armor for there profession I mean if your a combat medic riffleman maybe you should ask for medic specific armor and not cry nerf for something thats nearly impossible to get anyway. (lets look outside of the nerf and take away box and try to improve in ways that expand insteaad of limit) just a suggestion all

That reminds me: Are there any Master Squad Leader/Master Pistoleers out there? How's that wokring for you? I'm wondering if it would be worth it to drop Carbineer in favor of Pistoleer 'cuz the idea of a dual-wielding, Mandalorian-wearing Squid is almost too tempting to pass up.
