This is a bit long but would be cool. The jedi are not the only "UBER" people to have ever lived in the SW universe. The others should get some love too. Now before you shoot this idea down as you think I am just some guy that wants to be as good as a jedi without the grinding you should know a few things. First I am 1 box away from jedi and have done my fare share of grinding. 2nd this will most likely never happen and is mostly for my own hopes and dreams. 3rd as rare as Mando Armor is these guys would be even rarer. So now without anymore crap here is my idea.

Elite Hybrid Prof. Mandalorian (fighter, commmando, warrior ect ect.)

How do you become one?
First master BH, commando, SL, or ranger. Then get a full suit of matching mando armor with jetpack (told you these guys would be rare lol). Then equip the armor and go talk to Fett. He sends you on a entry quest then once you complete it he says he is starting the mandalorians backup and you can join. Upon joining you are stripped of you "non-mando" skills (ie everything that is not you master elite prof bh commando, sl, ranger and its pre reqs).

What happens next?
Well your armor is now not able to be removed and when it gets low on condition you must fix it (100% chance) with kits that Fett gives you (after doing another mission for him). You also gain access to elite skills and weapons. What tree you have access is decided by what hybrid or elite prof you did to get there. IE ranger is different that sl and that is different than BH ect. You are removed from your faction and enter a new faction (Mandalorian) and when declared (or whatever its called now) you are attackable by both rebels and imperial. Also you are not able to group with anyone other than other mandalorians (a lonely life).

What weapons you gain access to.
Rangers and SL mando gain access to a Mandalorian rifle and gain rifle skills in their Mando skill boxes.
BH gain access to a Mandalorian carb and de-10 (since this is their weapon anyway).
Commando gain access to a Mandalorion Flame thrower.
For the new weapons you will have to aquire a schem from Fett by doing a mission.
Fett also becomes your new faction "recruiter" and you can turn in faction points for stuff from him.

How powerful will they be?
Well in a word, VERY. They will rival jedi knights. Now before anyone complains about this, consider how hard it will be to become a mandalorian (if its even possible).

How good will mando armor be cause its not good right now?
Well after the CU it is supposed to be way better. But it will be very very good. It will not have special protection against LS but will have a slight resist. The resist will be like 5%, just enough so it is not vuln to it (make the fight even).

Will they get new skills?
Yes. They will all get new skills. They will all do much more damage in pvp and pve.

Think this covers most of it. What do you guys think? Other elite elite classes I would like to see. Akk Guards (read shatterpoint). No flames please as I am not trying to make my prof elite, but I just think this would be really cool to see other "uber" classes in this game, even if they dont fit the time line, I thnk the timeline is kinda jaked up now anyway.

Doesn't seem much use for SLs. I understand you picked those 3 because they are the only professions supposed to wear bh armor in the future, but nah. That means to have this elite profession you need some of the rarest items in the game. That's not a very fair way to do it. You have to do spend a lot of time getting armor and then making it mando, or spend lots of time getting money to buy it. It's a nice way to make it rare, but this sounds more like a BH idea.

Also, I was under the impression Boba didn't like the Death Watch which is why he sends you to kill them. If you show up in Mando armor, he'd be pretty likely to kill you.

I say... wait until after the CURB, and then rethink this idea. ^_^

He does not like the Death Watch because they had a war with the Mandalorians. Sorry you dont like the idea, but as I said it will most likely never get put in game.

Just cuz you show up in mando armor doesn't make you Death Watch. Boba's wearing it isn't he??


Personally, this would be really cool. But rather, make the quests involve the death watch bunker or other (SMALLER) caves and dungeon type things, offering methods of obtaining the armor besides the bunker. Then again, reduces rareness. Still cool to make Mandalorians a class, and might add some RPing. Also remove the no-grouping thing, they WERE mercs who were paid to fight, and the chances of finding others are gonna be slim.

You say that about everything.

I think the idea is interesting but I would say grouping for a SL is their thing. The provision to say no grouping except with other Mandolorians seems kinda harsh. And I'd liek to see it MBH and teh profession badges for the other 3.
