Second that! This (and it's sibling Light Battle Headgear) is the most awesome head-piece in game since it doesn't obscure face features or mimics that were so painstakingly built by developers. Companions still can't be rendered without helmets, can they? It actually shares the model with green IA quest reward "Lacqerous Battle Headgear" I was dismayed to find out that orange craftable "Lacqerous Battle Headgear" has nothing to do with this awesome 3D model

Indeed, which recipes for orange gear you get from UWT fully depend on mission Grades. Grade 1 would bring you first 2 sets (those without head piece, skill 20 and 60 to make, for each armor type), and it goes higher from these. I won't help you with exact Grade margins though

Most certain it comes from Underworld Trading like the rest of recipes for moddable items. I believe I got once a Hooligan's leggings recipe from UWT myself

well, yday I got Red Savage crystal (blue) replaced by a 31 level offhand (epic) in a queue while doing a space mission, so it seems possible to expoit it

The only catch here is orange armormech crafted items with class requirements. Well, and looks and icon of the armor could be different on the other side: nice Rep medium armor coats could become something ugly on an IA and vice versa

Entering your ship triggers loading screen so that is a common choice. Also handing in a quest refreshes the list

There's no willpower shield among green offhand recipes learned from trainer. It seems like an oversight On the other hand there are schematics for blue willpower shields for levels 25 and 37. Searching Galactic Market would be the best way to find it, but it should be pretty rare

Hooligan's Jacket, Leggins and Headgear is orange (crafted by armormech) set. Hooligan's Prototype orange/blue items are another matter - looks like quest rewards or drop or else.

Speaking about interrupts, I wonder what was the reason to assigning (reasonable) price for interrupt ability to half of the ACs while other half has it completely for free

Well, when you put it that way, Sage/Sorc has an aoe knockback and a stun also, right? This isn't a sound argument Grouping: sure thing, but well, still 7 out of 8. Wierd As for suffers less or more: care to explain what is it you mean? All 3 healers in game have an instant heal or two, not only Merc/Commando, if that was your point here

When 7 out of 8 ACs have interrupt and 1 doesn't it definitely looks like a bug or design overlook rather then balancing out or class specifics. I feel for the cause

Find a bored tank slightly above your level and two-man flashpoints with your dps companions out! That was fun I tell you

I do hope they would make it possible in the future

I believe Rakata pieces are BoE so sell them on Galactic Market for a million or two Could buy some nice 25 mods if there's any

Bracers and belts are empty-Orange drops. I suppose any class has a 10ish level ones and like 30-40 level ones. For Inquisitor I have Saber Marshal (10ish) and Supreme Inquisitor (30ish) bracers and belts, all bought on Galactic Market. They say farming grade 1 lockboxes with missions or elite+ mobs around 12 level may get you some of those lower ones Armormech and Synthweave only craft head-chest-legs sets, withouth the head piece for low-level ones. There's a set for all supported armor types every 40 skill up, starting form 20 (20, 60, 100, 140...)
