Estelindis Posted September 18, 2019 Share Posted September 18, 2019 (edited) We don't always give positive feedback when we like things, so I just wanted to say that I very much like the new "lines" of armor appearances. For the sake of convenience, let's call them Onderonian and Sha'tek (not completely accurate, I think, since some items labelled "Onderonian" seem to evolve into a higher Sha'tek look?). If anyone's not sure what I'm talking about, I made a little album with a couple of examples. (For clarity, the gold armored outfits in this album I dyed green; the dyed areas are naturally blue and brown.) I think we didn't see this degree of unique appearances when the PTS launched, but at this point quite a number of cool looks have been added. They all have a bit more of a fantasy-ish look than sci-fi, more evocative of a feudal or renaissance aesthetic compared with the usual Star Wars outfits. The textures and models are beautiful - some of them as nice as any cartel outfit, in my opinion. And it's really cool the way the designs are built up on each other, becoming heavier / more ornate as the rating level of the item drop increases. This gives a great variety of mix-n-match between items of higher or lower grades, since they feel like variants in a "family" of appearances. Whoever made these, seriously well done.

LD_Little_Dragon Posted September 18, 2019 Share Posted September 18, 2019 Agreed, the new expansion areas and armors all look pretty good. Probably why no one is posting thread about the designs, they don't need improvement. I didn't notice the evolving looks, thanks for posting the comparisons.

TonyTricicolo Posted September 19, 2019 Share Posted September 19, 2019 (edited) Good catch. I like the comparison shots. In general, Bioware is making better textured armors. Can we thank that Dynamic Placeable Objects system? I particularly favor asymmetric ones. Though, the one thing I can do without are chest pieces that extend past the waistline.

FlameYOL Posted September 19, 2019 Share Posted September 19, 2019 The new armor design is great, so much more detail and I love the armor progression. Way better than 5.0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
