Pvp gear for a 20 level Bounty Hunter is ugly hide the helmet or just wear a new one. For my Merc I ripped out all the upgrades then put it in my other pieces of armor.
Go to the Cartel Bazar. If you got some reputation then buy one of the Adaptive Helmets or keep playing side quest until about 15 or 16 you get the first helmet.
Wow very interesting, I have a level 55 Powertech on solid Tank and yes you do want some Defensive but don't take it all away just so you lose tons of Health. Good job though but there is a lot of Defensive in there but again good job.
Well the good thing about getting cool bounty hunter armour could be a crafting recipe. Get Armormech and level it up till about 350 and you can make some pretty cool armours out of that.
You can also get Cartel Coins from Achievments but I recommend just buy the cartel coins because you can be playing this game for five years and with achievments get like 300 cartel coins
Can you make a Cartel Market Crafting pack for limited time like a Crafting Pack for each class so if a person did not get the Crafting Recipes the first time they can get it back.
