bulletkuha Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 (edited) Hi everyone! I know, I know.. another person interested in talking about the design of the Sith Sorcerer/Assassin robes, but just bare with me. I'd just like to start off saying that I completely love the game, but as you guessed it, the robes aren't hitting the right spot for me. It's just hard to imagine an assassin fighting crime in a dress, or thats atleast how I see it. Social Gear: I know a lot of people are like, "Hey, just buy the social pants." but I've seen players do this and in all honesty, it still doesn't look that well.. most of the pants are skin tight and wouldn't go well with an Inquisitor's top piece. (Picture of Social gear pants below) http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/dd306/Nick_Sword/swtorsithsocialarmor.jpg In my opinion I think both the Sorcerer and Assassin would benefit from something like this or varients of this. (See picture below) http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/dd306/Nick_Sword/Screenshot_2012-01-28_21_10_40_569019.jpg http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/dd306/Nick_Sword/Screenshot_2012-01-28_21_10_54_207799.jpg It's a NPC by the way... - The slit in the front gives room to show the inner pants and the shortness of the robe gives you room to show off the boots. Benefits of a style like above: -You'll be able to see your full boots and not just your toes peaking out from the robe. -You'll also be able to see more pants as well as keep some of the "robe style". -Could work well with both Sorcerers and Assassins. Giving Assassins more of a combat readiness look and Sorcerers can still have some sort of draped clothing.

I'm all for feedback.. good or bad. Just thought I'd get my 2 pennies worth. Oh! .. and I think you should be able to wear your full faced helmet and hood at the same time Edited January 29, 2012 by bulletkuha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Altephor Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 There are already armor sets with pants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karkais Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 (edited) There are already armor sets with pants. Uh where? For the inquisitor? I know there is but they are ridiculously rare. I support the topic btw. Edited January 29, 2012 by Karkais Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coogihat Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 While I agree there should be more pants and half-robes like OP suggested, it actually surprised me how easy it was to get some decent looking pants for my inq. Social items vendor in Dromund Nexus Cantina sells moddable Formal Pants, I am loving those! Imo these look good with plenty of the upper armor we get. Also found Supreme Inquisitor's Legwraps on GTN relatively easy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bulletkuha Posted January 29, 2012 Author Share Posted January 29, 2012 I think armor like this would fit better... http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/dd306/Nick_Sword/Screenshot_2012-01-29_03_41_07_160452.jpg http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/dd306/Nick_Sword/Screenshot_2012-01-29_03_40_56_266829.jpg http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/dd306/Nick_Sword/Screenshot_2012-01-29_03_36_20_795073.jpg http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/dd306/Nick_Sword/Screenshot_2012-01-29_03_36_05_971225.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tgirgis Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 I posted a ton of examples of the styling I would love to see from SWG and KOTOR on my thread: http://www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?t=248906 If anyone cares to check them out, let me know what you think, maybe bioware will take note of what the players want.

eldiri Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 I did look at your post. The choices you linked were way too plain IMO, for anything high level. Maybe for starter gear. My big problem is the lack of chestpieces with hoods, they had it right at some point in beta, I even have a screenshot of an awesome chestpiece thats red with mechanical looking features, but then they changed it to the crap we have now.

Coogihat Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 I have been looking for the Supreme Inquisitor's leg and chest since the game came live. I haven't found one set on the AH at all. Where have you found them? I found them on the EU server Chuundar. I checked the GTN on Dromund Kaas and found the Supreme Inq's Legwraps for I think 8000 creds or something. Could be that I just got lucky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarpedAcorn Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 I agree completely. I *hate* robes, but love Inquisitor. I would really enjoy rocking something more akin to a "space pirate" social gear with boots, pants, and flight jacket. Also, I was excited to get the Formal Pants on Dromund Kass so I could ditch the skirt...then I saw it was male only which made absolutely no sense. What would prevent a female from wearing pants?

jkcheng Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 At least we have the option of using social gear to mix and match to our liking. Just hoping now for removable base mods (armoring, hilt, barrel) from raid gear so I don't poke ppl's eyes out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blitzak Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 (edited) The worst part is before the game came out all our class pictures were masks and hoods. None of...whatever we have now. I don't know what they were going for but I hope they don't do anything like it ever again. Side note: The imperial trooper pants give a good armoured look.

Everything you say? Yes. Agreed 100%. I'm especially irked about the formal pants on DK being limited to male characters. *sigh* The new Imperial Pilot Pants on one of the Starship Upgrades vendors at the Fleet are a nice choice for Assassins, and they look pretty good; the only problem is they require Social III and about 200+ fleet commendations from space combat. *headdesk* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jkcheng Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 Unfortunately, those cost $150. Not even that, even if you have and are willing to spend the money, I don't think any can be found. I think there's also issues of not being able to simply upgrade current account to CE level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BangkokJedi Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 can you mod social gear? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karkais Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 (edited) can you mod social gear? Yes you can. Due to the armoring mod not being removable (at least until next patch) the endgame gear pieces are still superior to modded custom gear, even without taking set bonuses into account. I think Bioware is doing the right thing making the endgame gear pieces fully moddable (can take all mods off) so we dont have to look at that garbage ever again.

I think Bioware is doing the right thing making the endgame gear pieces fully moddable (can take all mods off) so we dont have to look at that garbage ever again. I think what they will implement is the mods ripped out of set pieces will be restricted to item slots. As in you can't rip out the armoring from a chestpiece and put it in your boots. The reason BW first locked in the base mods was because they didn't want people Needing on something they already have (over it being an upgrade for someone else) b/c they can rip out the mods and put it in another piece of gear. Also it'd allow people to get fully geared in just a few runs. Edited February 3, 2012 by jkcheng Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
