I've never quite gotten a 100% certain answer on this:

Are all the "Pack" items identical except for their appearance? I.e., all of them carry 50 items? Other than looks, does Travel Pack = Military Pack = Tech Pack?

Are there any packs that *aren't* functionally identical? Ones that carry more than 50 items, have a built-in rocket launcher, etc.?

SueDenim,

As of the last day of Beta, they were all the same except for looks. Same capacity, no special functionality. Don't imagine that's changed.

I've yet to see any difference besides appearance.

They should increase in capacity by 20 for each level.

Travel 50
military 70
tech 90
bountyhunter 110
spec ops 130

I'm wondering... is there a pack that is (nearly) invisible when worn but still offers the 50 extra slots?


During beta I really needed the pack to carry all the clothing samples I had, but it looks a bit weird wearing your Sunday finest with a travel pack on your back. So I'd love something unobtrusive (I never trained anything in Field Wear during beta, soI have no idea what the packs looks like).


Any answer would be appreciated.


Thanks.

I know what you mean. Plus, on top of that, the Travel Pack has a weird little bug when the wearer has certain long hair styles. Instead of the pack either covering or being covered by all the hair, the long hair gets "threaded" under the "bedroll" part of the pack. It looks really stupid, though since I'm a redhead, the hair tends to blend in a bit and it's not really noticeable unless you look hard.

I think the "Tech Pack" might be the least obtrusive that I've seen, though they all look pretty silly with something like the Sleeveless Gown. The Tech Pack sits more toward the waist. And Military Pack is a bit less obtrusive than Travel Pack.

Agreed, but we probably will never get the luxury of having them increase beyond 50 storage units. Would you be opposed to lowering the capacities for the lower-level packs, so that it's something like 10/20/30/40/50? At that rate, they're all still useful, but the higher-level packs are clearly much more useful.

Then again, I kind of like the ability to choose my pack based on its look...so I'm on the fence, I guess.

During the final days of Beta, I had a Bouny Hunter pack and it had an extra 10 slots. Also the Spec-Ops pack had 10 more slots.


So at this time the capacity is Travelers Pack:50, Militery Travelers Pack: 50, Tech Pack:50, Bounty Hunter: 60, Spec-Ops:60


I would like to see base packs starting at 50 slots, and increasing by 10 every skill lvl (Travelers 50, Militery 60, Tech Pack 70, Bounty Hunter, 80 Spec-Ops 90, and one more pack at Master Tailor lvl that holds 100 slots) . Right nowas it is a tailor trying to make and sell thesepacks that all hold the same amount (like me) I have no selling point other then "looks cooler the basic_pack_01" I am VERY honest about the Capacity vs Looks to all my customers, Hope someone in SOE thinks about this a little...

Hm.. I had a Spec Ops pack but think it was 50 slots. Made a Bounty Hunter pack today and am pretty sure it is only 50 slots. Will double check when I get back in game.

Hey...could you guys please share where you are finding the Thoranium Steel for the BH packs? I have looked all over, and can't seem to find any. Still looking for Titanium aluminum also . Just stinks being Field Wear 4 and still making Tech Packs as my best. Thanks

That really depends which galaxy you are in, doesnt it? I have some titanium aluminium on Scylla, but I'm not aware of any Thoranium steel, at least on the starter worlds.

Well, we really won't know if it is related to the server if no one posts where they found their Thoranium Steel or Titanium Aluminum. It might be different by server, or there might be similarities in location, just different servers have it at different times. I play on Corbantis, and I have yet to find either. If anyone would post where they found it, not just that they do have it, we might be able to find a pattern.
