Aelther Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 (edited) Revan's Robes have been fixed on 8th of January 2013, therefore this thread is no longer needed. The robe now looks as it should: Fixed Cartel Revan's Robe - http://img823.imageshack.us/img823/1149/swtor2013010815031543.jpg Revan NPC - http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20120520103151/starwars/images/2/26/RevanFinalDuel01.jpg According to patch notes the Mask clipping issue has also been fixed: * Revan's Mask no longer clips through hoods on some body types. , BioWare Now I can only hope that the robe will stay fixed as it is now and not get broken again, because some random guy complained that he liked the wrong Revan's Robe better... You can find the original post wrapped as a spoiler below: It seems Revan's Robes (I mean the actual skirt, or 'legs') from the new cartel pack has the wrong appearance, let me show you what I mean: KOTOR REVAN: http://theflagshipeclipse.com/gallery/albums/upload/reference/revan/revan_all_views.jpg SWTOR REVAN 1: http://athalran.files.wordpress.com/2012/08/revan.jpg SWTOR REVAN 2: http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20120520103151/starwars/images/2/26/RevanFinalDuel01.jpg CARTEL MARKET REVAN: http://dulfy.net/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/swtor-revan-armor-4.jpg The most obvious thing is that the metal ring with straps is missing. Now before you start saying how it is part of the belt or something let's look further, In both KOTOR and SWTOR versions of Revan's suit the skirt is black with a single red stripe in the middle, however the cartel one has 2 gray stripes instead. I hope someone at BioWare will fix this, because this is most definitely NOT Revan's Robe. Edited January 8, 2013 by Aelther Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spencer_ Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 I was kind of surprised too. Revan's lower robe just looks like a reskinned muse robe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tman_ac Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 Have to agree. Really disappointing what BW tries to "sell" us here. That's indeed not Revan's Robe and it has to be fixed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaximusRex Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 Its strange that they would make that mistake, the lower robe design with the ring is available to players in non-moddable versions as well, not like the arts not in the game.

OddballEasyEight Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 I was kind of surprised too. Revan's lower robe just looks like a reskinned muse robe. Oh my, a reskin of an item already in the game? what a surprise! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dpwms Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 (edited) I'm not a hater on SWTOR or BW but I have to admit that is pretty tacky. If you are going to put the outfit of an iconic character in the game, don't do it half-assed. Edited December 12, 2012 by dpwms Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichT Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 (edited) Yeah....that's not looking so good. Needs to have that ring and straps look. Especially important to fix ASAP when you are trying to sell this for RL Cash in the shop. Edited December 12, 2012 by RichT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nemmar Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 (edited) Would be great if they added the KOTOR one. That one is well worth to get it with the cape and all. I agree with the OP, but i am not juvenile, so i can do that without calling Bioware names and threatning with my sub. Its lower part of the robe should be fixed.

Alec_Fortescue Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 It's not a bug but a design oversight! A bug are the two hoods (one is clipping thru the cowl on the back!) on the Revan's chestplate haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aelther Posted December 12, 2012 Author Share Posted December 12, 2012 Oh my, a reskin of an item already in the game? what a surprise! Silly thing is that they don't even have to re-skin anything, revan is already in the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heezdedjim Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 (edited) I was kind of surprised too. Revan's lower robe just looks like a reskinned muse robe. It's not even that. It's a straight repaint of the "Investigator's" set that was in the first batch of cash shop junk (which in turn is just a repaint of some other tired old ugly set that has been in the game since launch).

Katsuragisama Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 Silly thing is that they don't even have to re-skin anything, revan is already in the game. Yeah, I would have expected actual Revan robes...ripped off the NPC himself. I'd actually prefer quite a few of the NPC's armors... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terin Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 Man, they really need to get on the ball! This isn't some throwaway armor; this is REVAN'S armor we're talking about here! Hopefully, they'll do us a solid and actually update these armor-pieces in an upcoming Patch. Plus, they need to add the add his cape, too!

SNCommand Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 Plus, they need to add the add his cape, too! No Capes! But seriously yeah, they really should add it, been waiting a long time for the whole original set, even the first kotor only gave us a cheap copy of it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
threepers Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 (edited) The oversized shoulder thingamajig ruins the chestpiece for me. Needs to go back to the original look. Edited December 12, 2012 by threepers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aelther Posted December 12, 2012 Author Share Posted December 12, 2012 even the first kotor only gave us a cheap copy of it Yeah but KOTOR had mods, plenty of which gave real Revan's set with the cape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SNCommand Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 Yeah but KOTOR had mods, plenty of which gave real Revan's set with the cape. Well sure, but then I had already passed on to other games, good for a few replays though, the cape being as stiff as a plank was a letdown though, that's some of the reason why I was hoping we could have the real deal in this game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terin Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 The fact of the matter is, considering this is REVAN'S armor, it's worthy of a higher standard, and at the very least, making sure that it looks correct. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But yeah capes work perfectly in SWTOR, no reason for it not being included. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EATtheDEAD Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 lol how sad is it when the gaming company who made KOTOR and Revan can't even get the armor right for the online version of the game they made!?! lmfao Jesus, this has to be one of the funniest things I've ever seen in a game.

Slipfeed Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 (edited) I'm not a hater on SWTOR or BW but I have to admit that is pretty tacky. If you are going to put the outfit of an iconic character in the game, don't do it half-assed. I'm pretty sure they just don't have the tallent left to do anything but half-assed. Between this and the "Amazing" life day speeder, i'm really just done even hoping this thing can turn around. I was pretty blown away when I saw what they where trying to pass off as Revan in the foundry. Darth Revan would crush your wind pipe, cut your legs off with his lightsaber, fry your worthless carcass with lightning and feed you to kath hounds for even suggesting he would wear that awful chest piece. Darth Revan does not need safety bumbers on his shoulders. He is not in danger of wiplash. His original robes from kotor made him look like the shadow of death itself. The way they made him look in SWTOR would be more appropriate in a family guy spoof story told by peter where Revan is a mentally challenged nursing home patient. Its just sad. Imagine what would happen if Vader's armor in episode 3 had been changed. If Lucas got rid of the cape. If lucas got rid of the controls on his chest and wrapped a nerf tube around his back from the chest over the shoulders. There would have been a riot. I'm not sure George would have survived. Somewhere along the line, someone said "Hey look at world of warcraft. The better the armor is, the bigger the shoulders get". Well then jimmy, pile that **** on !!!
