Awesome, thanks for the clarification JimG.

Well the last two statements contradict each other . I do appreciate the replies though but I'm hoping what they said about the dev's saying CM items are exempt from the purple rule.

It would be nice if Bioware could officially comment on this.

That would make sense and that's what I was thinking as well, I just wanted to know for sure before I bought some of the pieces for my friend.

So the purple Adaptive armor cartel sets, specifically the Destroyer set on the Cartel Market, are they able to be worn by F2P toons? I know F2P can't wear artifact gear, which is purple in the name, but the destroyer (which is in purple) set doesn't say it's an artifact but it's just adaptive. Also, on the limitations list http://www.swtor.com/free/features it says F2P cannot equip "MOST" purple items. So I'm a little confused and that's why I ask you fine folks. I would appreciate an answer. Thanks!

I'm not sure either way, but since Zabrack's have different skin colors between Emp/Rep it's possible there'd be different headbands on the other factions. Worst case scenario though whenever they patch the barber shop think they said they were adding sometime, you change the bandanna then.

Ok I'll look into these, thanks for the links and advice

Ok, yea I'm at work so I just threw something together in a minute. Could you like one you suggest?

Hello everyone, I'm a level 50 Guardian tank spec. I'm playing with a group of friends and we're attempting to mix pvp and pve (hard's, operations) together. I'm looking to be a main tank and I'm wondering if I should keep Guardian slash as a final talent, or if I should get Unremitting in the vigilance tree for a little extra damage mitigation? I'm thinking of something along these lines http://www.torhead.com/skill-calc#500cMGzurRkuzZhGM0M.1 Or if you could share some advice on the best way to spec a main tank with the current talents it would be appreciated. I'm just not sure if Guardian slash really seems like a tank move as it doesn't grant threat or give extra mitigation.
