Decoration Ideas

[TYBERzan]

There is a Pazaak table, about the same size as the dejarik table, in Nemro's suite on Nal Hutta. You encounter it as an imperial agent. This would be a nice addition to the cartel Market.

 

Additionally, I have noticed that there are no trash cans available for decorating a stronghold. Many different examples exist on Coruscant and Corellia for models - this would also be a useful addition to the strongholds. An idea might be that with a trashcan, you can throw out objects by clicking on it and clicking the objects - just a neat way to make the game more RP friendly.

[TYBERzan]

-Some more ideas would be some holo terminals such as this one on tatooine, they are also found on Nal Hutta:

-Some police speeders such as the one on Dromund Kaas:

Or the ones on Cademimu:

 

Can't find pic - they are in the FP near the beginning and throughout.

 

-This large Holo-Globe from the Jedi Temple on Tython:

-This statue from Maanan, it is near the entryway and above the ground, we don't have enough statue options so here is one:

I was thinking of personnel and it hit me - just add generic individuals of every species for instance generic civilian human, generic civilian aliens, etc. Just need lots of options to fill a cantina like in the original Mos Isle cantina scene.

[TYBERzan]

OH and another idea might be adding new hooks to existing objects. Some examples are the security camera and the Holoprojection device.

 

The holoprojection device could easily fit into a small floor hook.

The security camera really needs a small wall hook as an option - to make it a bit more covert. If you have to resize it that would be even better. I bought 6 of these (intending to buy 12 - one for every room) until I saw they were medium hooks. I would suggest adding small hooks to build up interest and sell more of these.

[TYBERzan]

Another idea would be a stationary Darth Malgus and Satele Shan Holo trainer. (as well as a Dr. Oggurubb) as a utility item. We already have the temporary versions but this would make for an interesting visual if put in front of a holo projecting device.

[TYBERzan]

-Another idea might be dark honor guard like the ones on Korriban.

 

http://img3.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20121129165603/starwars/images/e/ec/Imperial_Guard_on_Korriban.png

 

These are found at the Sith Academy entrance.

 

 

-I would also suggest Hutt personnel to be added to the stronghold - perhaps able to sit on the Hutt lounger somehow.

 

-Some other ideas might be smaller versions of the Holocron of Fear and Dread - ones small enough to fit in a small hook.

AND additional ones - both small and large with different designs on the surface and existing designs with different colors. I would suggest Orange and Purple as well as Black/Gold as ideas.

[TYBERzan]

Perhaps additions could be made of computer terminals and consoles.

 

This example is everywhere, but present here is this one at 8:59

 

 

On Alderran in the house alde library- though present nearly everywhere.

 

And the other terminal design seen when it is accessed at the end of the Black hole Area quest.

[TYBERzan]

Oh, I just saw this pic:

 

http://www.jumpstationz.com/gallery/ToR/screenshots/NarKioskDatacron.png

 

and wonder if the holo sign across the street could be added? The one stemming from a light pole and covering the entire street.

 

Also, there are quite a few holo placards like that yellow one which could be added to the game.

 

EDIT: I just noticed that elevator in the background. It seems to take up a medium to large space and clip the sides. Could an item like that be added to our strongholds? hinting at inaccessible levels perhaps?

I had an idea. I know that you can buy twin stools, but what about individual ones? This might be a prime candidate for the craftable vendors though as the twin stools are already for sale.

 

 

Another improvement for the cantina might be found in longer bars. I mean the actual bar -

Not the shelving but the bar would be useful, or perhaps even a wraparound bar like the one in Nemro's Palace.

This would be a great centerpiece type item and of great use in the Nar Shaddaa stronghold.

 

EDIT:

 

ON a related note, a copy of the journal of Xenomedicine on a Cafe or Coffee table would make a fun gag - as a "coffee table book" and it would be interesting if the Doc commented on it

Some items from the Ships which would go well in a stronghold might be the head-in-a-jar (GUARANTEED best seller) and the med bay screen from the smuggler ship.

AND

 

The monitor above the Hospital bed in the smuggler ship (eighth picture).

[TYBERzan]

I would also recommend updating the Bartender. Perhaps he could sell priority fleet passes and fun drinks for RP'ers?

 

It would also be useful if we had Bouncers like the ones guarding the VIP lounge in fleet. Though I think Gamorreans would also be a good bouncer species as well as humans.

 

Some ideas from Kotor (Javyar's Cantina) include a jukebox playing this:

 

 

Or a Mandalorian Neo-crusader in Yellow armor.

[TYBERzan]

Nearly forgot. I would also like to recommend Hutt cartel security guards, like the ones on the promenade on Nar Shaddaa.

I couldn't find a picture, but this model would be an excellent personnel unit- though even better if their faces were covered. I would also recommend bounty hunter personnel using the stereotypical models of mando, droids, trandoshan, humans, etc. It would make for fun stronghold building.

[TYBERzan]

Another idea would be a herald droid, like the one karragga has.

http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Herald_of_Karagga

 

Which never becomes a holo.

[Necrotic_Rose]

I'd just be happy if they added OP's and warzone dummies like the ones you can get on ships.

[TYBERzan]

That would be a good idea, but what about dummies that could fight back?

[TYBERzan]

Personnel with changing stances.

[TYBERzan]

It seems some of these ideas (citizens of various species', and bounty hunters) are being added to the game!

 

Hopefully a dev is reading this thread.

 

http://dulfy.net/2015/01/08/swtor-3-1-pts-v1-new-items-and-decorations/

 

Also would like to add:

 

Full size Hutt lounger (there is a mini-version available for Uni. MK-2)

 

THX!

[TYBERzan]

Another idea-

 

Sith library archives. There is a purple version found in the sith sanctum which would be good looking in my stronghold.

 

If they could stack that would be even better.

Nice idea. I support this.

[DragonRiderQuest]

What would you guys think about armour/weapons display decorations, there's a lot of really neat weapons and armour in the game it would be awesome if you could display it Inside your stronghold

there's an official thread here. http://www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?t=752143 no need to dig up the dead

 

And yes, this idea is good, and has been asked for a lot If you ask in the official thread, I'll add my support there too.

[JakRoanin]

I would love vases on tables full of flowers. more couches, chairs, and cushions. Homey, comfortable, and most importantly personal touches. That make our characters feel like real people with multi-layered lives and personalities. We are more than our jobs, so our PC's should be more than their titles.
