lucaswhite Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 So when do bounty hunters get the sweet mandalorian helmets, such as the one the female bounty hunter wore in the opening cinematic for the Empire? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bejarid Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 Technically, at lvl1 if you have the cash and the appropriate reputation level (Champion) with the Bounty Broker's Association. Barring that, much higher levels - Hydra bucket (and the rest of the set) is something like 40+. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nogoodtomedead Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 If you have a legacy lvl of 20 you can get the legacy helmet on dromund Kaas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cymonguk Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 You could consider getting the Mantellian armour helmet. You can usually pick them up pretty cheap on the GTN, its an orange item too. http://swtorista.com/uploads/outfitimages/mant14598.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lucaswhite Posted February 13, 2014 Author Share Posted February 13, 2014 Upgrade as in the armor rating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lucaswhite Posted February 13, 2014 Author Share Posted February 13, 2014 And I'm looking for a helmet like Shae Vizla's, who is the woman I mentioned earlier in the sacking of Coruscant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Millardkillmoore Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 Get the Master Hunter's Helmet from the BBA. With a gray and red chestpiece, it looks about the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xienive Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 Adaptive armor and orange armor (the armor that has an orange ring around it) in general is upgraded when you put better armorings, mods and enhancements in it. Whenever you finish a quest, you should almost always pick planet commendations. Each planet has a commendation mod vendor that sells you higher level armorings, mods and enhancements as you progress. You are going to want to upgrade your components for your orange armor about every other planet or so, and don't forget about your companions as well, as that can make a big difference. As a Bounty Hunter you are going to always want your orange armor to be Adaptive or Heavy, as that will give you the most protection. As far as her helmet, there is only one in the game that looks exactly like it. It is the helmet that you get from the reputation vendor for getting a high reputation with the Bounty Brokers Association which is an event that happens once a month. You can wear it at any level and it is tradeable among your legacy. (currently happening right now) As far as helmets that are very similar, you will start to get them in your 40's. If you go here http://tor-fashion.com/bounty-hunter/ you can see all the BH looking armor including Mandalorian armor and you can see the level restriction so you know when you have access to it.

Motovator Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 (edited) Taris I believe gives you your first Mando lookin armor set (my profile avatar is pretty much what it looks like). This helm is my personal favorite. You get this set in the 50s on Corellia I believe. http://tor-fashion.com/th-17a-elite-war-medic-imp/#/ Edited February 27, 2014 by Motovator Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brutalos Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 level 36 is when you can get a Mandalorian style helm, check the GTN there's loads of them on there. There's only about 4 choices of T shaped versions overall through the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ruler_of_Shadows Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 So looking at it, id have to say that the BBA helmet matches spot on, but as for the rest of the armor, THIS isnt in the game anymore apparently, as per THIS thread, which is over a year old. Has anything changed in that time period? If it isnt in the game anymore I wish they would bring it back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fazaani Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 I haven't really found a good authentic looking bounty set that would sooth my eye... So my merc has just tionise set with gray dye (looks pretty cool with gray helix pistols) and on my PT runs in RD-12b moddable with red/black dye Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish there was a helmet like Shae Vizla's with a T visor. It would still be different enough from GCW era Mando helmets with shape and stuff while still giving a good Mando vibe. I want a helmet with a T visor and a targeting system/antennae thing or whatever you want to call it on the side but there aren't any right now.

Vid-szhite Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 I'm still a complete noob, I have no Idea how to upgrade adaptive armor other than adding mods to them and I'm not even sure if that upgrades them It... does. Adaptive Armor automatically adapts to your highest available armor class. There's no trick to it or anything like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DukeSkirata Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 On Taris, you get the Mercenary Elite armor set by doing Heroic missions. It's a nice looking kit, and since it can be modded, I'm still using most of it today at level 52. I've upgraded to a different helmet that looks more like the NPC Mandos. For the record, I believe Shae Vizla's helmet is classified as a TT visor, as opposed to the T visor that most Mando buckets have. Here's what the Mercenary Elite set you get on Taris looks like: http://i1301.photobucket.com/albums/ag112/luke_skirata/image_zps216fd5f0.jpg Note that the belt and leg armor aren't from the set, but you get the idea.
