I am female and I support this post! More skin for males is a good idea also! And pants! Yes! More pants! Less dresses!

Indeed. Now I can go along with light armor being protection enough for Force users (due to the Force) but I loathe walking around with bits hanging out. Especially in places where it makes utterly NO sense like Hoth.

This whole "exposure" thing has gotten toned down a great deal over the years (chainmail bikinis anyone?) thankfully. I avoided one pretty decent bit of armor when I saw that I would look like a flippin' belly dancer. Not what my Sage cares to look like, thank you.

Obviously, as I get better gear, the bikini will go away, but what ever, it's fun for now.
Leia tanked a boss in that outfit. And she handled all the DPS as well!

And overall, I think there's actually very little "sexy" looking gear in game. Even Shae Vizla's armour looked nicer in the trailer than about any gear in game. Except maybe for the Imperial Slingbra.

Not saying the OP is guilty of this, but I think that this is pretty apt -

"This game is too easy, make it harder"
"QQ Moar hardcore players, this game isn't designed for you, suck it up or quit"

"This game is sexist, fix my gear"
QQ Moar feminists, this game isn't designed for you, suck it up or quit"


Basically, if you aren't a male ages 15-30 who plays this game casually then you aren't entitled to have things you want.
Meanwhile, in Tera general chat -

"The sad thing is, arguing with fanbois on the forums was more entertaining than their 300 million dollar single player MMO from 2008"

I am in shock considering the number of people running around in the slave outfit on my server..
Odd. I don't remember anyone grousing about "frumpy" armor. I do remember grousing about uninspired armor. Then again, I wasn' there the first couple weeks so I may have missed it.

I'm all for options but I get irritated when a piece of very good, on-level armor ends up being too out there (and that's not just the "skimpy" thing, it's the goofy shoulders and, don't EVEN get me going about headgear).

Your gogo girl female chest pieces are horrible. Just my 2 cents.
There is no T if midriff. This is an MMO, be happy you don't have a chainmail bikini.

Edit: Besides, what's wrong with sith looking good? It's cloth clothing. It's not like covering more will give better protection. It's also not like all the armor is that way or even most. What's wrong with the human body?

First thing I do in game is figure out the lowest level I can aquire one of these in orange gear so I can mod it and wear it forever. They have them in light, medium, and heavy armor on the Imperal side by level 20 so I gather them up and wear them on all my characters.

Different people, different preferences.

Now, if I could just find some boots with clear high heels.....
When you find yourself surrounded by hostile Clowns... always go for the "Juggler" first.
