Also, with color-matching being brought back.......just buy the rated chest piece and you essentially have the full rated set...........

The screenshots are nowhere nearly as ridiculous as viewing the armor pieces in game...

The JK chest (PvE) would be ok if they removed the shoulders things, the legs are ok, the boots and gloves look ridiculous.

The Trooper chest (PvE) is again ok, scrap the rest of the pieces.

The JC chest (PvE) looks like Age of Conan or Clash of the Titans, not Star Wars.

I spared myself looking at the smuggler pieces.

The two PvP versions I checked (JK and JC) are beyond horrible, a lot worse than the screenshots suggest.
Huge shoulders, spikes, gloves of self-impaling and similiar stuff don't make armor look good, epic or interesting, neither do extreme color combinations. Get inspiration from the movies, the Clone Wars series, the Knights of the Old Republic comics and you get the designs that look appropriate.

Dunno why all the QQing... have you guys actually watched the movies? There's a lot of weird stuff being worn in them.

I kinda like most of the sets actually. Trooper and BH especially look awesome.

A few of the others have some weird helmets but hey that's what 'Display Head Slot' is for.

Smugglers look a bit 'meh' I guess... Sage PvE probably wins the derp-tastic award though (Hi I'm a lvl 1 WoW Priest!)

Really the amount of whinging is getting crazy. People aren't happy unless they look like a cross between Satan, Sauron, Robocop and Unicron from Transformers and then everyone else has a cry because Joe Casual looks the same as the guy that lives in Mom's basement and plays 24/7.

Seriously some people in this game need to suck it up a bit.

The Inquisitor pve set is AWESOME!!!

Everyone loves a walking bottle opener!

The pvp set is even better!!!

One question about it though, will Arnold Schwarzenegger make an appearance and try to kill me somewhere along the line? If he's covered in mud I'm in trouble, I won't be able to read his heat signature!!! God help me if I see Danny Glover...or Jesse "The Body" Ventura for that matter.

I think these have been made to encourage people to rip the mods out since this is new feature as well.

Makes my golden samurai feel so much better. Wow, what are they taking inspiration from for the jedi knight? The Sage PvP is the only one for the Republic that you can tell is not actually a droid. Other than that everyone looks like a machine. If the crafted orange gear with an augment slot looks this bad, I won't know what to do.

the look of the new pve armours a massive let down, especially the empire ones.

the bounty hunter looks half finished and about as far from the heavily armed mercenary they're supposed to be as its possible to get, the sith warrior looks like something from power rangers, the sith inquistors look like rejected concepts from Assassin's Creed and the Imperial Agents look like a cheap knock-off of a sith warrior with a ridiculous mask.

i really hope they redesigned at some point as they all need work.
