Yes, I Backtracked To Get A New Jacket. Don’t Judge Me.

With every jacket uglier than the last, I was stuck in my weird jacket with the doodads on the back and the horrendous neck roll…

Jacket1front — A stylish neck roll. I have whiplash, officer, make that other starship captain pay for my pain and suffering.

jacket1back — I mean, what is that? A mini-backpack? We're gonna party like it's 1995!

Which, I might remind you, is still better than the higher level crap that I keep looting:

jacket3front — Metallic boobs are srs bzns.

jacket3side — A cape! Here I come to save the daaaay...

Then, as luck would have it, my sentinel finished a level 15 quest that I had skipped on my smuggler and the reward was a fully moddable chestpiece. Hrm… brain connecting dots… fully moddable chest… from level 15 quest, probably not too ornate.

I have never logged back to my main so fast ever. I abandoned my sentinel in the senate building and hauled my smuggly-butt back to Coruscant, picked up the quest, and got my very plain looking level 15 jacket.

Sometimes the simplest low-level items do look the best.

Oh thank God. Now I may actually consider grouping with you. 😛

  The bad news is my companions still look like hobos.

I like the Christmas Corso because it’s daring and new, but your smuggler’s new look just doesn’t pop for me. Make it work!

Do yourself a favor and never play a bounty hunter. 🙂 Our outfits are nothing BUT doodads and backpacks.

My Scoundrel was wearing that jacket from Coruscant until recently. It’s classic Han Solo, and anything was better than the jacket with the kicky neckerchief he got on Taris >.<

I am quite fond of the one I got from Maelstrom – it's a long white trench coat, and I wanna say it came off the Oppression Droid boss, but I can't recall for certain. It might be too neck-roll-y for you, but I think it looks kinda pimpin', and I am A-OKAY with that for this character. I swapped out Power instead of Crit in the enhancement slot – I have some feeling that Power is better for healing, but I'm not sure that's correct? – but otherwise kept it as-is.

(Btw, my husband -frustrated that you can't turn off companion's head gear – totally went back to do some grey quests on Nar Shaddaa just to get a moddable circlet-style head piece for Elara!)
