That would have been sick

Itemization in an EQ game could have been sick.

A rare back slot that doesn’t have great stats, but gives you the jet pack ability.

Bracer that let’s you cloak yourself.

Helmet that offers night vision etc.

Could be very EQ-esque, but tech based.

Even in the new star wars movies though they are like "the helmets do nothing"

Not on Mandalorian

He’s constantly using night vision and thermal

And the scout troopers use the ears on their helmets to intercept mando’s call telling kwill to take baby today back to the ship and flee

Ive always assumed that Stormtroopers on the outer rim have worse equipment too (that’s kind of suggested on the show). When I was active duty in an airborne unit I was always shocked when I saw people from regular units using M16s with no rail systems or attachments and using the old night optics that we considered obsolete.

I imagine the empire is similar but IDK.

SWG suffered from two flaws: it wasn't at all what people expected, and (in typical Verant fashion) it was months behind where it needed to be at any given point.

But if you enjoyed it for what it was, and weren't on the "bleeding edge", it was an amazing game. You can absolutely play without buffs (or at least with only self-buffs), and there absolutely is meaningful gear ... but it's mostly player made, so you have to actually find player-made weapon/armor shops.

I enjoyed grouping with everyone to do storm trooper armor turn ins really early on, when everyone in the group would get a reward uppon turn ins.

Anyone else remember that?

Jangos has some hardware that’s linked to his jet pack for locking his missile.

Mandolorian gear is for sure a missed opportunity on nodrop clickies armor sets, since each mandolorian tribe seems to have armor suited to their specific style.
