georgelue Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 I'm not saying gear looks like garbage, it's just that I don't have that "heroic" feeling when I wear it. Orange armor does look good, but we have a limited amount of it. I've always wanted "Major character" armor like Darth malgus, emperor vitatie etc. not endgame gear every lvl 50 wears. I know they will soon add a feature to "extract" stats from purple to other armor, but my message is: Please add level 50 orange heroic armor that major characters wear. (Darth Malgus etc.) So I get that heroic feeling. I would really appreciate this feature. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can see what they were attempting to from a design point, but they didn't make it. I am hoping the new sets coming in 1.2 will fix that issue, I personally am a fan of the very simple and clean look. The Sith and Jedi robe come to mind.

And yes, I do agree with you! I also think that maybe MAJOR MAJOR characters' gear should drop in HM operations/flashpoints. An example for a major figure would be: False Emperor HM, Entire Malgus set would be available for loot Edited February 24, 2012 by georgelue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnusheart Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 (edited) Personally I think it would be cool if like the Collectors Edition sold more armor than just Reuplic officer and Empire Trooper gear. Like Revans Robes Republic Side Atri's White Historian Robes Republic Side White and Blue Trooper Armor Republic Side Emperor's Robes Empire Side Nihlius's Mask Empire Side Right now I am hunting for my Jedi the BEST looking Guradian Armor I can Physically Get. its a Blue Warpaint Recolor of the lvl 40 pvp gear. http://tor.zamimg.com/torhead/uploads/images/10029.jpg Best Pic I can obtain Edited February 24, 2012 by Magnusheart Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kabjat Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 (edited) what does 'that heroic feeling' feel like exactly? I know in my crappy quest reward greens I don't really know how I feel. I think it's a 'not so fresh feeling' edited to clarify: I'm just being silly...I totally get what you are saying lol. Some of the gear looks a bit 'Meh' Edited February 24, 2012 by Kabjat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's a 'not so fresh feeling' Thanks for the reply! By "heroic" feeling I mean a feeling that makes you feel like your a major character, like Darth Malgus. With the gear we have it makes me feel like I'm just another random character with usual endgame gear. I want to feel like a "Darth Malgus" type of major character, not just a random lvl 50er.

Yeah I can totally see that. If you do the heavy duty content your toon should totally look the part. Darth Malgus is a BAMF looking scary dude but I haven't seen any gear like what he wears on player characters. Much of it looks sort of...mish-mash? I dunno...maybe I dont pay enough attention lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnusheart Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 In all consulation. You can get Malgus's Chestpeice. but no cape. its a lower lvl sith warrior chestpeice. And u can find resperators almost everywhere. : / Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

illgot Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 I have never liked the look of Heroic armor. I enjoy very simple designs that seem realistic... or really really skimpy outfits that are just sexy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

georgelue Posted February 24, 2012 Author Share Posted February 24, 2012 Indeed. ._. Would love to see White and Blue Trooper Armor thats orange moddable. for none exist. Mask of Darth Nihilus? Epic. Just epic. I would like to see the armor of all major characters from KOTOR to SWTOR. If they have Darth Sion's/Exar Kun's/Bastila Shan's lightsaber available in vendors, why not their gear? I would love to have the mask of Nihilus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arkerus Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 Sorry the armor doesn't have planets and eyeballs for shoulder pads. They went for a more realistic look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martinloo Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 I did a Heroic yesterday with a jugger that was wearing exactly what you want. the mask, the chestpiece and the cape. Try digging around in TORSPY to see if its in there. I searched quite a bit before deciding that i wanted my assassin to wear imperial pilot pants. Right now i'm waiting for the to put back in the helmet+hood options. But thats another thread... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DukeAtreides Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 (edited) The gear design in this game is questionable... Has anyone seen a Jedi Sage in full Rakata or Columi Gear? What kind of Jedi wears that stuff? Don't get me started on some of the Sith gear... wow... Gives me the impression that Bioware distributes free crack during dev meetings/sessions Edited February 24, 2012 by DukeAtreides Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Idunhavaname Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 I have never liked the look of Heroic armor. I enjoy very simple designs that seem realistic... or really really skimpy outfits that are just sexy. Same. One of the things that pisses me off in WoW is you get super fancy armors as paladins that almost destroys the what a paladin is. I rather have simple robes similar to the movies than anything obnoxious with wings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I personally loved the armor in DAoC when it first came out. It just looked.....used, which was great.

georgelue Posted February 24, 2012 Author Share Posted February 24, 2012 If they add more "heroic" looking armor, I hope they make it available for light, medium and heavy armor. I seriously hate having to not wear social gear as a juggernaut because it's light armor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magnusheart Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 IDK about you. But I would pay money to have Revans Robes. even if we can get them non-cannonly. closest things you can get are empire side only graphic robes that are black and purple. Nilhius's Mask shouldof' been a legendary item reward for inquisitors imo. :< Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
