Hello,

 

I am requesting the dev team take a look into the Sith Warrior Warblade quest reward model. The initial quest that is given right at the start of the Warrior Storyline is broken. Instead of providing the old Sith Warblade model that is pictured on the weapon rack in the instance, it provides a generic training sword. This is has been an issue since the deployment of 7.0.

 

All the best,

 

Grant

Completely agree. The only obtainable weapon that uses that model now is Korriban Battler Offhand Blade. It uses the wrong icon (a lightsaber), and the wrong sheathe/unsheathe sounds (lightsaber sounds). It's also ONLY available to marauders, juggernauts cannot obtain it at all.

 

You can obtain the Korriban Battler Offhand Blade in one of two ways;

 

1. Start as a marauder and get it as a reward for the NEXT mission, where you interrogate the prisoners, and NOT when you pick it up in the tomb cutscene before.
   
2. Start as literally any other combat style, log in, and if you can choose a 2nd combat style, pick marauder and open the offhand weapon box. If you want to use it on your juggernaut from here, stamp it onto your mainhand weapon then switch your combat style to juggernaut and it'll stay stamped. Don't save a loadout before stamping and switching back to juggernaut.
   

 

Bioware, this is ridiculous. It's up there with that time players weren't getting Kallig's mask as a mission reward for the same mission/cutscene that awards it. I can't imagine it would take more than a few minutes to fix, and it's been brought up multiple times.

Yes, this absolutely needs to be fixed. You know what’s worse? In 7.1 BioWare changed the Knight’s saber crafting cutscene to mesh properly with the intended weapon if the Knight is a Shadow. They are obviously capable of detecting and remedying such cutscene discrepancies if they want to. Yet somehow only the Knight gets this special treatment. As a player starting in 7.0, my first Shadow Consular got a single saber in cutscene and was given a dual saber in the mission reward. They couldn’t fix something like this for the story that was meant for that class all along but they fixed it for the Knight.

 

Inquisitors, Consulars and Warriors are now all getting the wrong weapons in cutscenes even when they play classes made for their stories right from the beginning of the game, but for some reason the Knight alone gets the immersion problems caused by the new Combat Styles fixed for it.

While we are on the subject, maybe since outfitter now includes weapons, maybe the Sith Warblade can be received as an exclusive, yet Legacy bound blue item for the Sith Warrior story, similar to Kallig's Countenance and Lightsabers in the Inquisitor story. I always liked the Sith Warblade, and its a real bummer that it has been replaced by a generic weapon in game. It would be cool to get it again, and now be able to transfer it to other characters on your Legacy.
