MasterRey Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 We need to have his armor and lightsaber in the game. Make 2 chest pieces as well , 1 with hood up and 1 with hood down , or give us an option in the game to put them up and/or down for this and any other armor that has them(mostly jedi). I find it very odd that we have Satele Shans armor set in the game , but not Malgus , who is in my opinion , a much bigger character , if not simply "better" character than Satele ever will be.

theSCARAYone Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 There are some look alikes for his weapon. Such as these. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoskitoMando Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 Yes, please! We do have something SIMILAR to his lightsaber, but its purple-y and not the same. Regardless, his armor and his saber would be amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BartElroy Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 There are vendors that sell his and Zen Wallow's lightsabers on Corusant and Dromund Kaas around level 13 or 14. It's also available on Nar Shadaa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jozocuric Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 Well, Sith Raider armor looks like Malgus' armor, but without cape. But yes, I'd vote for original Darth Malgus armor. /signed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rouakh Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 Sith raider is totaly different. Espacially chestplate. Malgus has way cooler armor then this dumby raider. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zaitana Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 Seriously BW!!! Thexan's armor was on the CM before KotFE was even launched! people have been asking for Malgus' armor since the CM was introduced and still nothing. Just about every other major character in the game, and the lore the game draws upon, have had their armor offered on the CM; even characters no one wanted armor from. At the cosplay cantina even that was just held, you still had people doing Malgus. Congratulations on creating a character that stands right next to Darth Vader in the minds of the fans with only a few minutes of animation. it's way, way, way past time to offer Malgus' armor up for sale. At this point I'd even accept it at some ridiculous super premium price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GhostDrone Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 (edited) Interestingly enough, the Sith Raider armor is perfectly accurate to Malgus' early/beta appearance, as seen in the "Fate of the Galaxy" trailer (though it is missing the thing on the back of the neck). http://puu.sh/k8RcO/1452b6fac7.jpg (From ) I've even managed to recreate it to some degree of success, although I opted for a different lightsaber. His actual hilt model is in the game, but as someone already stated, it is way too purple to fit the armor set. http://puu.sh/kYcIU/316d788596.jpg If I had to guess, they just used a placeholder model until they could fit in his Deceived appearance. Which is, by the way, one of the most detailed character models in the entire game (not just the armor, but his skin/sith corruption too). A shame we don't have access to something like that for our characters. Would definitely be great if we could get the real deal in-game, though.

Zaitana Posted October 27, 2015 Share Posted October 27, 2015 wow... I had completely forgotten about that trailer. great catch. that clip magnifies the essence of our request. the fact that the armor malgus wears in game is markedly different from the sith raider armor. in that clip you can see the sith raider armor is cool looking, but forgettable. the changes they made later make malgus' ingame armor much, much more visually appealing. malgus' armor ingame and in the cinematic trailers is more aggressive looking as well as being more stylish. it's not about wanting to look like malgus, it's about wanting one of (IMNSHO) the most menacingly epic looking armor sets in the whole SW:EU pantheon.

It's great design, for sure. Looking like Malgus is just a personal in-game hobby of mine. Although, I think one of the reasons they haven't gotten to giving us the real thing is because the armor seems to be tailored to his model's body-type. I think they may have to make it scale much more appropriately with different body-types in order for it to be viable as a Cartel Market purchase you'd spend money on. Since I can see it looking kinda ridiculous on different kinds of characters. In the end though, I wish they paid as much attention to player character armors and models as they do with important NPCs. Some of their recent efforts have managed to match or exceed NPC quality in terms of detail, like the Sith Recluse armor. Hope they keep it up, and eventually manage to grant us a dignified Malgus set as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zaitana Posted October 28, 2015 Share Posted October 28, 2015 I've heard the "malgus' armor is tailored to him and won't scale" argument before and I call BS. I don't doubt they might have done that initially. but honestly, if they had put someone on that back when they introduced the cartel market (and we lowly consumers started clamoring for this particular set), then they would have had something by now. they've animated two whole new species since launch, they couldn't re-scale one armor set? I get that they would have to make it so that the cloak is always back like a cape, otherwise there would be significant clipping issues in cutscenes as well as in game play. I can live with that. even still they could get two chest pieces out of it. one with hood up and another with hood down. maybe even make it two distinct sets. for crying out loud BW.. stop stalling and give me another reason to throw money at you!!

GhostDrone Posted October 28, 2015 Share Posted October 28, 2015 Not a matter of whether or not they can do it. It's a matter of how well they can do it. If you'd like to compare this situation to new species (like you did), then take a look at the male togruta. It's quite embarrassing. Just saying.
