only pilot/jedi/sith, no level requirement, cartel coin armor sets?

So am I right that the only full armor sets with no level requirement off the Cartel Market are the Jedi/Sith or Pilot ones?

 

Kinda hoping they would have Trooper style ones as well.

 

Thanks,

Mal

I'm sure there will be. As far as forum posts go the Valiant Jedi, basically the set the Jedi is wearing in the splash screen, set was very requested AFAIK. The glowbat classes are much more popular so that's probably why those 2 got pushed out first.

 

I would guess the pilot on did because it's somewhat similar to Luke's pilot uniform.

It's actually not quite. The splash screen armor has a slightly green-tinted plate; it basically looks like Jedi Battlelord without the pauldrons and with the hood down and belt under the robe. And it wasn't highly requested. What was highly requested was the armor the Knight wears in the character builder, which looks like Jedi Battlelord with the pauldrons and belt over the robe, but white instead of green (and with the hood down). Valiant Jedi looks like a gold version of the splash screen armor, and uses a medium armor mesh; the way the lower part of the robe flares on a female character is quite obviously different from the default heavy armor mesh(es) and is really unattractive IMO.

 

They were probably trying to answer several complaints at once; a lot of people have said "give us those hood down heavy armors we can see in the game world, like the character gen armor or what the NPC guardians are wearing on Tython," and a lot of other people have said "give us armor with the belt under the robe and no silly pauldrons." (The silly pauldrons in this case referring to endgame armor, not normal gear, but when has any version of BioWare paid attention to feedback nuance?) So they gave us a hood-down armor that doesn't exist in the game world but does have a hidden belt and no pauldrons. And they probably consider the situation solved, now. Oh well. I guess I'll be over here waiting for the end of days when I get my hood toggle. :/
