At least one of the Bounty Hunter (if not both) sets looks awesome.

One of them looks like the Boba Fett Concept Art by Ralph McQuarrie and the other looks like Dengar....somewhat.

Look I know small children work for cheap in china, but can you guys look at making something decent. That doesn't remind me of a B sci fi movie from the 60's?

Apologies if my understanding of previous tiers is faulty. I haven't done any ops, myself.
When the game first launched, Rakata/Columni/Tionese (pve) looked far different from Centurion/Champion/Battlemaster (pvp) gear. There where also appearance differences between the armour for advanced classes within the same class tree. Basically, end game gear for sent's looked slightly different from a guardian's end game gear.

When War Hero and Black Hole/Campaign gear came out, both looked different from each other. However, the only difference between the advanced classes under the same class tree was only in the colour of the gear.

With this new gear, the PVE gear looks just like the PVP gear except for the colour scheme. My marauder can now look exactly like my jugg complete with the same colour armour.

See, they have progressively gotten lazier with their armour designs. Instead of making unique looking armour for each advanced class, they are just making it look the same for each basic class, i.e warrior. This kind of pisses me off. The medium armour my marauder wears should not look the same as the heavy armour my jugg wears. My jugg's gear should look more armoured than what my marauder's is and my marauder's should in turn look less armoured than what my jugg has.

Also, why does the new operative armour look like light armour? :/

Yes, rep armour looks better this time around...I think BW may be trying to sabatoge the look of the imp armour in an desperate attempt to get people to play on the rep side more. >.>'
No plans for PvP...So, I have no plans to invest anymore money into this game.

Bits and pieces of it I like (particularly the new Inquisitor belt) and will use .

Given that set bonuses will be all tied to the Armour mod it gives you complete freedom to design a look you like.

So a lot of complaining in here over what amounts to nothing.

I'm actually liking some of the JK armour. Now the other 7 Classes...
