As someone who generally prefers to play the tank role, I've currently been playing a Jedi Guardian, but I'm curious to the Jedi Shadow style of tanking. How is tanking as a Jedi Shadow, compared to other classes? I'm especially interested in it's AoE tanking capability.

I've been trying to find a nice piece of orange armor that looks like the armor on the Jedi Knight character creation screen, yet I've found nothing at all like it. I've found and learnt the schematic for the armor that the Jedi Consulars wear on the character creation, and while I would love to use that, I can't use it, because it's light armor and I need heavy armor for tanking. It's orange too, so I would've been able to use it through the game, and I would've been happy with that. It's also craftable at only 80 or so Synthweaving? But every single piece of Guardian based heavy armor I find is just slight variations of the standard hood/robe combination. There's no real armor plating on it, and it looks kinda 'meh'. I was hoping for the armor we see in the trailers and the screen shots. Armored with the robe over the top and such. Because it looks awesome. Salt in the wounds every time the splash screen comes up and we see the Jedi with the armored/robe combo. But yea, no character creation armor for us.

I'm also missing this codex entry. Tried heading back to the forge to see if I could get it there, but couldn't get in. I activated the lore object by the workbench outside the Jedi Temple but I didn't get the Jedi Weapons codex.
