Flying-Brian Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 So another patch with an update to the Cartel Market and still no Trooper or Bounty Hunter character creation armor. BW can you please post a date when this armor will be made available? We know it's there, it was datamined awhile ago. Just to show you the problem here, let's take a look at when the other 6 character armor sets were released. 12/8/12 - Jedi Knight and Sith Warrior 1/8/13 - Smuggler and Agent 1/23/13 - Consular and Inquistor 3/12/13 - STILL NO TROOPER OR BOUNTY HUNTER Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No exact timing on the Trooper but it is currently planned shortly after Game Update 2.0 and Rise of the Hutt Cartel. Hope that helps! -eric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ireul Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 (edited) I was just about to start a thread for this when I ran across this one. Thank you for the estimates; I've been saving 1440 CC for the trooper armor for forever. Edited March 12, 2013 by Ireul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What about the Jedi Knight's character creation armor? That's still missing as well. Edited March 12, 2013 by Glzmo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ireul Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 That's great news. What about the Jedi Knight's character creation armor? That's still missing as well. Valiant Jedi Armor. It's the same except it's armor coloring is brown instead of white. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No exact timing on the Trooper but it is currently planned shortly after Game Update 2.0 and Rise of the Hutt Cartel. Hope that helps! -eric Wow. Eric thanks for the reply. I would make a guess that 1.7.3 will be in 2 weeks when the current Gree event ends. It is just a disappointment that the 6 available character sets were released within 7 weeks of each other. But now we're looking at another 2+ weeks before the Bounty Hunter armor is available (so 9+ weeks since the last release), then an unknown amount of time till 2.0 and the Trooper armor. Why the extra wait for the Trooper armor? All the other sets were released 2 at a time, so both factions had their set together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marauder Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 what is character creation armor? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alec_Fortescue Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 Jedi didn't get a character creation set either! Oh and why would you release only one set? They used to come in pairs! Come on guys... And where are the archetypal armor sets promised? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those sets are already datamined :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alec_Fortescue Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 (edited) Valiant Jedi Armor. It's the same except it's armor coloring is brown instead of white. No. Stop. It's not the same. It's totally different. Pieces don't even share the models except for the boots. Ive done my research. Me, I am a darn expert when it comes to armor sets in this game...

Me, I am a darn expert when it comes to armor sets in this game... Had to delete an unused alt to double-check what you said (hadn't seen the JK creation screen since launch) and yeah you're right. The belt goes outside the robe, there are stupid shoulder and elbow pads, the gloves are completely different and the leg armor is thicker. All said and done, I think it looks worse and am glad BW went with the armor from the loading screen instead. But whatever to each their own; though I don't remember BW promising the character creation armors as they were.

Paokzu Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 I had to go to a character creation screen 'cause I couldn't remember what these armors looked like. The trooper one is very cool. Makes me wish I was a pub. The bounter hunter one though...well having an awesome merc myself I'm thinking you could add something better, like softdrinks maybe.
