REAL Malgus' armor *spoilers* + differences between NPC and available sets


Recommended Posts

I'd love to get one, especially at this stage when most players know that man is gone for good.

 

Most players claim that Malgus' set is pretty much the Sith Raider or Legacy Sith Juggernaut set without the cape. Wrong. There are more differences to them!

 

Here is your Sith Raider armor.

And here's our real armor:

Differences?

The t-shirt! Sith raider has this common t-shirt design with different textures. Malgus' armor is designed much nicer. There is a visible cut and textures to make the "sleeves" of the shirt to appear as armor pieces surrounding the arms while Sith Raider's sleeves appear as cloth.

 

Cape, hood and different textures on the spaulders.

 

Different, smaller neckguard.

 

Life support on Malgus' chest is more detailed and appears to be 2d.

 

Different textures on the abdomen area.

 

I think the boots might be different too, can't find a full body picture... But I am on it!

 

Bioware? Pls? :[

He's right. And the option to toggle the hoodie back and on would be killer too. I know for a fact, bioware, that if you release this set, it would the most success out any other cartel market set you've put out there. So do it! Take your time with it, and release it! :)

I wonder if this actually is a nice set or a whole body like on the Flame guy, the Gen'Dai.

I think it's designed this way to keep those important lore characters from appearing unique so you can't just go around looking like their clones or something.

 

Part of the problem lies in the fact that Malgus's armor was created as a high poly model for the cinematic scenes first then re-scaled for his in game model. The version we get sans cape is even worse because of the horrible textures and models player character gear often had in the beginning. I'd pay good money for a more accurate version of the armor myself. (With or without the cape.)
