So for my bounty hunter I've finally got all the armor pieces I wanted to make my perfect outfit... but now I'm looking for blasters. I don't care so much how they look, I more care about their sound. If there's anything like Jango Fett's WESTAR-34 pistols that's definately what I want... (Sounds like ) Anyone know of any such blasters??? Thanks!

Yes, we need this armor. I'd also really like to see this armor: http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20061216182304/starwars/images/e/e5/MandalorianKOTOR.jpg http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/starwars/images/0/0f/Mandalorian_Commander.jpg I've always loved NeoCrusader armor. Would also like some blasters that look and sound like Jango's.

Scratch my last.... The Second Great Galactic War is the mod you want. http://www.moddb.com/mods/second-great-galactic-war/downloads

I love to see the KotOR stuff like the Triumvirate set, Malak's armor and such... Calo Nord's gear was a nice surprise too. But there's some awesome stuff that seems to be missing from KotOR! Armor: 1. Mandalorian Neocrusader armor (as seen in KotOR 1 and 2) would be indescribably awesome. 2. Canderous Ordo's special Mandalore armor would be cool too. 3. Republic Soldier armor as seen in the KotOR games (The red and orange rebel-looking armor). I know people probably think it's strange, but I thought it was cool looking. The Ulgo Loyalist set looks a bit like it but not enough. 4. Jedi/Sith Robes from KotOR 1. I know they were sorta strange, but I liked them... Weapons: 1. Mandalorian Repeater like the one Canderous used would be a cool assault cannon for troopers! 2. Bowcasters! I'm so sad I missed out on the event... there should be at least 1 kind available elsewhere. 3. Sonic weapons! They were different looking, strange sounding blasters in the KotOR games. 4. Vibroweapons! I really like the more classic, simplistic look of the vibroweapons in the KotOR games. 5. Shockstick! Maybe as a vibroknife for agents or something like that. Well, I think that's it. It would be awesome to see this stuff.

Go over to Moddb.com, and look for Ultimate Empire at War. It has a bunch of eras, including ToR's era. I saw a screenshot of the Republic destroyer as seen in space battles in ToR, so I'm installing it now.

Anyone??

I'm playing on Imperial side. I've been surfing the web regarding social items and found this list of them here: http://db.darthhater.com/items/social_items/ I don't know how credible it is as I can't find most of this stuff. I've checked all Cantina Social Item vendors on Imperial side.... are all the rest on Republic or what? Or is there someplace besides cantinas where you can find social items? What I'm particularly interested in is: 1. Aristocrats set (shirt, pants, gloves) 2. Imperial Ace Pilot Set (Ace, not regular) 3. Imperial Officer set 4. Infiltrator's set Must be some vendors I don't know about. Anyone know anything?

So I go to social level through. To get their, I had to do the Hoth Bonus Series and heroics with guildies, which was a bit challenging to get together even though my guild is huge. This is because most people either had already done it, or didn't even have it and were not close. I tried to do Heroics on earlier planets, but that was very inefficent. In the end, I found the best plan for catch-up with social points is running Black Talon (Empire side, think Esseles is Republic Equivalent). I ran it maybe 15 - 20 times after the Hoth Bonus and it got me to Social III. It took awhile -- some people don't like to be run through by a higher level, which I can understand. Some people I ran with were level 50s as well who were also desperate for social points, so I know I'm not alone. Anyway it's done, but really it was a bit much for just level III Social... The system could definately use some tweaks, but probably not as many as I originally suggested. razerfun -- I understand there are bonuses for group questing. My problem is that it usually prevents me from going at my own pace or I'm on completely different batch of quests and one of us would have to catch up the other. Heroics are much easier to get together for... perhaps they should give a little more Social points? That's where the real incentive is. Ashyel -- Point taken. Perhaps you could only get Social Score for PvP if you go in a group? But the thing is that Social gear is not PvP gear. It's cosmetic, yes, ergo for people who are unhappy with what they're already wearing or want something else. If it's cosmetic and not like a legendary PvP gear set, why make it even a fraction as hard to get?

I whole-heartedly agree. Kudos to you

I am not actually anti-social. What I am, is anti-waiting-around-for-other-people. I like to go at my own pace and it's faster than others. Btw, I made this forum post while the servers were down so I COULDN'T actually play. Seriously though, you don't agree that it's a bit too difficult? Conversations with NPCs and other players, in addition to completed said quest, is the ONLY way to increase Social? Really? I do other social things. I craft stuff for guildies and send them schematics and missions. I do PvP. Are you trying to tell me those things are less social? I don't buy that. It just seems a bit outta whack. That's all I'm saying. Like my post says, I think there should be more Social levels but a bit easier to get through them. It doesn't make sense that it's hard to get through Social Level 1. Also I would point to the companion precedent. Though you can find or make gifts for your companions, you can also just buy them gifts. ***? If we've got a credit-based option for that, why not for social??

bump . . . bump . . . bump . . .

Well I'm no husband, so I guess I'm screwed. Does anyone know how many points it is from Social 2 - 3?

I have quite an easy time playing casually. I don't do PvP--at least for now--and that's my business. No one bothers me about it, and it's all good. It's hard getting flashpoints together, yes, which is why I proposed a Flashpoint Finder in my post. In my experience no one quits flashpoints until our repair bills are like 40k lol. Maybe you're on the wrong server if you're having those problems, mate...

Everyone post your suggestions below and speak up if you agree with something/everything!! Technical and Mechanical Suggestions -- Improved Social System. See details here: http://www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?p=2278143#post2278143 -- Flashpoint Finder: gets players of appropriate levels from all servers and sends into Flashpoint. Just queue and go. Select specific, or select random for a daily lockbox reward. -- Adjust space battles to be a liiiiitle easier. -- Impove Cybertech (I've heard it's lacking) -- Improve Crafting: make customization an extreme focal point. Synthweavers should have access to all types of robes and make them any color possible, Weaponstech should be able to make their blasters look and sound however they want. Stats should be separate. -- Lower the cost of Speeder training after the first level. The speed gain isn't sufficient for the cost. -- Increase slicing applications. Suggestions for future races ***Character -- Arkanian (Empire, Republic) -- Zeltron (Empire, Republic) -- Ubese (Empire, Republic) -- Umbaran (Empire) -- Duro (Republic) -- Kiffar (Empire, Republic) -- Echani (Empire, Republic) -- Cathar (Republic) -- Massassi (Empire) -- Kel Dor (Empire, Republic) -- Nautolan (Empire, Republic) ***NPC -- Taung -- Herglic -- Najib -- Geonosian -- Bothan -- Gungan -- Barabel -- Verpine Suggestions for Future Classes Engineer (or something along that line) Description: This class would be a droid commander. The main idea is that they would use battle droids. Abilities would summon droids and cause them to use special attacks, while the Engineer himself would only have 1-3 blaster attacks. Weapons and Armor base default: Light Weapons (like pistols or knives), Light Armor. Advanced Class 1 - Regulator: Hallmarks would be Medium armor, and shotgun. In the way of abilities, they would use backpacks that deploy small remotes and probes. There would be Damage (offensive remotes) and Healing (medic remotes) skill trees, possibly tank (remotes could create a shield or something. Shotgun abilities as well. Advanced Class 2 - Strategist: Hallmarks would include very few pistol/knife abilities but would focus more on the droid aspect. Full combat/battle droids instead of small remotes and probes. Damage, and Tank skill trees. Story Ideas: This character archetype would be your Grand Admiral Thrawn, your Grand Moff Tarkin, your Admiral Ackbar, your Mon Mothma, Garm Bel Iblis, your typical strategist warlord out to conquer with wit. The story could start with a genius droid maker being conscripted by the Imperial Minister of Logistics or Republic Equivalent (still reading books/comics). From there, it would be about conquering, winning small wars, sparking planetary revolutions for his own end, etc. Titles: Foreman, Overlord, Mastermind, Grand Overseer Guardian (Republic), Enforcer (Empire) Descriptions: This class would put an emphasis on vibroweapons. They would be melee with some ranged. They do NOT use the force, but are trained to deal with force-users. This class is a martial arts expert, perhaps Echani trained. Weapons and armor at default: Light armor, vibrosword, shield generator. Advanced Class 1 - Brawler: Hallmarks would be vibroblades, dual or staff (figure it out haha). Abilities would focus on melee attacks and kicking, punching etc, as well as trips etc. This class could use Heavy Armor. Advanced Class 2 - Warden: Hallmarks would be a combination polearm-staff/blaster, like Gammoreans use. This would mix melee and ranged half-and-half and I think it has a lot of potential. They would use medium armor and could perhaps use stealth. Story Ideas: This is your Handmaiden, Pre Vizla, your henchman, your gladiator, your Rurouni so to speak. The story would start with a martial artist being hired as an irregular to fill the much needed role of a non-force user who can go blade-to-blade with a Jedi/Sith. Sort of a mixture of Bounty hunter, Agent, and smuggler I suppose. The story could be about the rise to martial perfection and all the while an arch nemesis is competing and in the end you finally beat him. Something like that I'm not BioWare geez. Haha. Titles: Thug, Raider, Reaver, Reaper. Suggestions for future planets -- Manaan (Oh please... Ahto city and whatnot.... would be awesome.) -- Bespin (Primative or precursor to Cloud City?) -- Bonadan (Corporate Sector Authority controlled) -- Bothawui (Intrigue with Hutts an account of racial/governmental feud) -- Christophsis -- Dantooine -- Hapes -- Mandalore -- Concord Dawn -- Onderon -- Dxun -- Raxus Prime -- Rhen Var (Focus on Jedi and Sith) -- Saleucami -- Cato Neimoidia (Would be awesome) -- Duro -- Utapau (Would be awesome) -- Ziost -- Obroa-Skai
