The Multipocket bandolier, Mercenary bandolier, and Twostrap bandolier


that are containers {just like backpacks with 50items storage}


are Pilot rewards, from certain factions and to certain races.


Currently you must be of the faction tree of piloting the Bandolier 'came from' in order to equip it.


This is the only place these bandoliers are found/earned, and they are not craftable by any means
{even though it has been on our wishlist like forever..grrrr}

I noticed yesterday while scanning the bazaar, that there are now under Wearable Containers listings for Two-Strap Bandolier and Multipocket Bandolier (I think that was the one). These are in addition to the Mercenary Bandolier (Neutral Pilot) that existed before the CU.


Does anyone have any information on these? Loot/quest items? Loot schematics? Restrictions?


Seeing as how my old Lightweight Military Backpack is now of marginal usefulness post-CU(*cough*), I was thinking a bandolier might be a nice change...with my white Ubese (*cough* *cough*).

You may have to be the same faction to equip it, but I do know once you have it equipped and switch factions you can still wear it, just not sure what happens if you try unequipping and requipping

Faction is just indirectly linked to this.

To wear one of those bandoliers you need to have at least Novice Neutral pilot. You get it for the first few missions you fly for the privateers guild.

If you see one on the Bazaar and are Reb or Imp Pilot you cannot equip them.

So, being Rebell or Imperial + being neutral Pilot works just fine.

So if you do not plan on a Faction Pilot career and have Jtls go to Eisley and become neutral pilot and equip the stuff.

I'm a rebel pilot but have the nercenary bandolier. Of course I got it by first being a privateer, then I switched. Guess I won't be takingit off anytime soon. Might not be able to reequip.

Mercenary I beleive is for nuetral pilots, the multipocket and double are for Rebel and Imperial 'non human' races.{wooks, iths, not sure what else would be granted one}


I have all 3 sitting at my complex should you ever want to server hop and see em. Had em since probly about 2months after jtl went live.




And for the 'novice pilot' trick, You do have to be of the same faction that awarded it,
all other will get the system message telling you you must be such and such to wear it.


I have a few toons and when one tried to equip the bandolier being the Imp pilot she was, she got the message.
Same went for the Reb pilot...you must be a pilot of the tree that awarded the bandolier to equip it.
