  • Anon

    Freedon Nadd’s armor is fukken awesome.

    • Cerberus

      Yup! I think I need to get myself one of those.

  • (8)

    The B-300 Cybernetic Headpiece should look nice on Ratataki.

    • Bryan

      Zoidberg mask?

      • Darth Ji’inx

        (8) is referring to the headpiece of the Primeval Stalker set.

        • (8)

          Maybe I found some use for pink dye modules…

          • Darth Ji’inx

            Whoop Whoop Whoop!! (Sandcrabs away)

  • dodgerfn

    Who ask them to bring back Cybernetic armor?? If it was you, stop.

    • Bryan

      qq some more. Different people like different things. Other than the rancor the cybernetic armor is the only thing in this pack remotely appealing to me.

      • dodgerfn

        If many people liked Cybernetic armor, it wouldn’t be 50 credits each on the GTN dude. It’s just trash filler for the packs.

        • Bryan

          I wish they were 50 credits on the 2 different servers i bought my specs on. A few of them i couldn’t even afford with the characters I had. Go send your straw man to skip with Dorthy.

          • Michael

            Lol, no one wears that garbage armor, get your head out of your ass.

            • Bryan

              i never claimed people did or they were immensely popular. Read what I actually wrote… All I was saying was I like them and I’m not alone. Fact of the matter is it’s not like any of there other recent armor sets are price winning either, it’s all crap. At least the idea of making your limbs fully robotic is a unique idea and something that fits up with the lore. Have the driven it into the ground, that’s debatable, but I still support seeing more so I can continue to improve my characters that do where this armor.

            • Holyfrog

              Lol, funny I thought you were the one with his head up his ass. Did you not read what he said? He wears it. Just because you don’t wear it doesn’t mean others don’t.

            • Dru Ilhares

              Here, let me help you with your extraction as well – seeing as I’ve got characters who wear some of that armor.

          • Ravenschild

            Try BC…several of the set boxes are the cheapest adaptive on the GTN or were as of 5/25

  • Xorras

    I hope the last version of this cybernetic set will be without any flesh part…

  • michael furious

    Freedon Nadd looks like the Witchking of Angmar’s butler.

  • WStevens1701

    Freedon Nadd Armor…..(Heavy breathing)

  • ZapTheSheep

    How long after this pack is released are we going to see someone on fleet with the Freedon Nadd chest armor died all white or pink with some sort of fairy name?

    • Michael

      Like a day?

      • BrianDavion

        try an hour

  • Chakra Kusanagi

    Energized and Dynamic armour sets most likely have some sort of animated effect to them, judging by the icon.

    • Yes I believe so, added a note next to the name

      • Micnev

        The effects on the energized set are electric sparks that arc with eachother on the broken areas. Unfortunately I couldn’t get the set to work a second time so I could record it.

  • Sarigar

    Now I want to create a guild called ‘Unfortunate Yavin Explorers’.

    • ramblingjac

      Just rename the guild you already have!

    • Holyfrog

      lol that is one of the best decos! I need it next to my alter of baby skulls!

  • Legend

    Whats up with that Starlord armor?

  • (8)

    Nice. I do not like a single decoration in this pack. This saves me a lot of credits!

  • Infernus

    The armor is basically a no go for me…but those mounts…I want those mounts and some of the decos are cool, especially if you’re getting the Yavin SH.

    • Michael

      The armor has been shitty for too long now

      • Infernus

        I actually liked a lot of armor in the first explorer pack but before that…you’re right. And the recolors is just getting ridiculous…and I’m usually not one to complain about it.

        • bearalzebub

          yeah, I keep wondering why they think we want recolors of armors when we can just put a dye in the items now -_-

          • Darth Ji’inx

            The two recolors/reskins are animated (eye glow or sparks)

  • Rebel Scum

    Well, if you were planning to go Revanite on your Yavin IV stronghold, you must be drooling now… lol

  • AbnerDoon

    Let me guess the Freedon Nadd armor will be the ultra rare set? I hate to even try for it as the chances you get a piece of it are so low. I will be hoping I can pick it up for under a few million.

    I think my real hope here is that the rancor is not the ultra rare. I think there is a good chance since there is a mount with a flourish. The Vondell Ruby does look good to me kind of like a muscle car. So with that in the pack really hope the Roche Widow and rancor go medium low in price. Though I am surprised they are putting a rancor out with the casino event coming back around the same time.

  • ramblingjac

    I don’t want any of the armor from this set. I am so sad ><

  • Sindariel

    It seems you can open/close the car top on the Vondell Ruby as its flourish effect. (You can see the top opening when you preview the mount ingame)

  • ZapTheSheep

    This is going to save me some bucks. There isn’t one thing in that pack that I really want. We’ll see if there is anything in the outer rim pack to make me want to buy some CC, but I am actually pretty happy with what I have now on all my characters.

  • Cokebeard

    if i’ve said it once, i’ve said it a numerous times… where is the outcry for all these pink color crystals coming from?

    • Micnev

      The same place that’s also requesting these cybernetic pieces with skin showing……..No idea.

      • Woo

        Seriously agree, what is with all the cybernetic armor? Never see anyone using it…

    • AbnerDoon

      Probably from the person whose brainchild was the sweep emote.

    • BrianDavion

      bioware has always had a bizzare thing for pink saber crystals all the way from launch when the original magenta crystal was the “secrect hard to acheive” crystal

  • Kraven

    These packs dont have any Stronghold Labels?

    • Don’t believe so

  • (8)

    That GR-9 Plasma Blaster better has a decent weapon sound, or I’ll send a nuke over to Austin.

    • Kang

      I’m betting that it has the same sound as the pistol from the last Explorer pack which was a really weak sound. It’s a shame because it’s a great looking pistol.

      I miss the days when each weapon from a series of packs had a different sound instead of the first few and the very last one.

  • Jonathan Parker

    I like those weapons a little more than the last ones, even the cannon. Nothing else is really drawing my interest though. The armor is just becoming too weird.

    • BrianDavion

      yeah, nothing in these packs is “oh my god must have”

    • PVW

      Same – I am sortof relieved I don’t feel compelled to buy anything from this set. I may pick up the weapons but those are always cheap on the gtn.

  • Darth Ji’inx

    Primeval Stalker will look good with a big game bounty hunter 🙂

  • Xorras

    > Unfortunate Yavin Explorer

    Many explorers died to bring us this decoration…

  • Kiri

    1) Why are all th new lightsabers fucking gigantic and look like fucking dildos? Why does BioWare insist on doing stupid shit and changing things that are already fantastic? Don’t fix what ain’t broken!

    2) Nice armour, nice mounts, decent deco. That Rancor looks amazing.

    3) Glad the Temple Chair will be 1 credit

    4) Can’t wait for the Sith version of this pack.

    • Holyfrog

      I can’t believe no one else can figure out why they make the sabers so big. If it is small (the size of prequel sabers) you would never see any of the designs they put into them. The OT hilts were pretty big. Just watch the EP 7 trailer and the size of that saber being passed.

      • Kiri

        The old trilogy lightsabers were not pretty big, what are you talking about lol? They were the same size episode 1-6.

        Lol my man… the lightsaber being passed in the trailer is Anakin’s…… which is regular size.

        There are no super long lightsabers in ANY of the movies or series. Period.

        • Holyfrog

          Sorry you are wrong. The OT sabers where bigger. In the PT they were slimed down. Go look at how Luke grips his sabers then look at Qui-Gonn or Obi-Wan in TPM. Even Vader looked clunky holding his. I never said super long.
          My point still stands they want people to see the design of the sabers, that is why they are so big.

      • Kiri

        You know WHY the lightsaber looks bigger???
        Because one hand belongs to an alien midget, and the other to a woman, who’s hand is smaller than a man’s. That’s why.

  • Luis Rosado

    good looking stuff, especially blaster rifle. Tired of all the rifles not having scopes.

  • Rokanis

    Is that…. Is that…. FREEDON NADD’S ARMOR?!?! Hold up guys, I can’t tell if my stomach got butterflies or if I just shat myself a little. I’ve been waiting for that set for quite awhile now and I’m beyond glad that it’s here! Now, just give me Lucien Draay’s outfit for my Sage and I’ll never complain about this game again! Thanks BioWare!!!!!

    • ramblingjac

      oh god I would kill for Lucien Draay’s outfit. KILL. BioWare, what do you need me to kill?

  • Sadriel_Fett

    I wish there was another way to get Reputation points for the Explorer Packs, like that other you can get from the slot machine. I’d love to get that Mandalore statue from the vendor, but there hasn’t been anything in these first two Explorer packs that really make me want to purchase them. All the deco’s and blasters I’ve been able to get from the GTN for pretty cheap. Too bad they don’t let you sell the Reputation Items on the GTN, as well. Here’s hoping the next two packs are freakin’ awesome.

    • Holyfrog

      The slot machine was a huge disaster. It started out great but they nerfed the crap out of it. That being said it is still a way to get the rep for those packs. They should have continued with their plans to release more slot machines. You still need a way to get the cartel certs though since that was part of the nerf.

      • Bery

        And all that because of a few complainers that didn’t like the slots machine drops because they wanted to sell expensive sht at the gtn.

        • Holyfrog

          Yeah, it’s either all or nothing. They could have adjusted the drops to halfway between what they were and what they are and it would have been great.

    • (8)

      Yes it would be so nice to have more slotmachines for cartel reputation + some certificate drops. I don’t care about the jawa junk at all.

      But there was crying on the forum, BioWare got it totally wrong, did some headless changes, and then abandoned it. Like always. Oooooh and they are scared now to release new other slot machines. What a bunch of …

  • (8)

    Freedon’s loincloth is part of the cestpiece, right? Those wings could be interesting, but not with this thing on the front.

  • PVW

    The brawler set (basically, mostly, the old champion guardian pvp set if I remember right) would be nice if they didn’t put that stupid thing on its back. I’ve got an old battlemaster chest piece that my guardian still wears occasionally – it’s the same except no stupid back thing.

  • Darth Me

    New assault rifle and pistol are nice. Rifle especially. Looks perfect for my Operative.

  • Kang

    I really want to like that Freedon Nadd set but I don’t think I can handle the wings. =

    • Moondust

      Think of it like Angels/Demons…I have them on a character that’s all white to have an Angelic look to them. In many classic art pieces Demons are giving Black Wings as well. For some great Angels vs Demons scenes check out the artist Albrecht Durer.

  • Aeden

    I don’t wanna outright disagree with angry ppl in a forum but sometimes there are a lot of hidden gems in these armor sets and recent ones as well. Instead of looking at the entire sets look for individual pieces that work well with other armors and mix and match. That’s how you get the best looks in this game. As a matter of fact I can’t remember one complete set that ever came out that I would be happy with. I hated the cyber sets too but then I started to find pieces that you just won’t find anywhere else in game so it pays to look through them I find. Hope this helps ppl find peace in their search for armor apprearences. If I could ask BW one thing though. Stop using brown as an unchangeable color in armor. That’s killing me the most. Can’t wait for some of these pieces and mounts.

    • Corwin

      Yes, all unchangable colors, especially brown, are so annoying. Like what is the point of, let’s say white-white dye if it still leaves brown in some places… So many armor pieces look disgusting with most dyes because of that. I understand that they tried to make it look like leather but please, just don’t.

      • Aeden

        Amen!

  • Kran

    Freedon Nadd clearly stole his helmet from the With-King of Angmar…

    • Kran

      *Witch-King

      • Xargaa

        The Width-King of Angmar

        • Ravenschild

          Only if he is body type 4

    • Unoshi

      lol, didn’t even noticed it was Nadd

  • Hermetist

    Wonderful blaster rifle and pistol, wonderful rancor and quite good Freedon Nadd set (without thouse ugly and senseless wings it would have been best of all sith warrior themed armor sets in the game).

  • MasterKast

    one big ugly pack. all recolored old items.

  • Divona

    Agree with all this is really bad pack. That means i got less thing to buy from GTN 🙂

  • Unoshi

    The only good thing in this pack is the Rancor IMO.

  • Terry G Roberts

    so what does the ruby mount gonna do with the flourish ability anyone know?

    • Steven Kucher

      I’m guessing that it’s a convertible and the roof slides over

  • Xorras

    Primeval stalker set looks so badass (Except helmet. Cthulhu doesnt approve it)

    • p4v7

      Hunter’s Mask will do fine with this set 🙂

  • Smaska

    Energized Triumvirate Armor Set’s animation can been seen in preview if you also equip a weapon!
    it’s just some electricity on the chest.

  • Steve

    Revered Huntsman looks like it comes equipped with a vacuum cleaner on the chest piece.

    • DarthPalidin

      It ain’t afraid of no ghosts. (Clearly intended for Inquisitors)

      • Holyfrog

        Yeah when you play with 2 lightning sorcs you have to be careful not to cross the streams…….

    • Koz A Duke

      Correction: A vacuum cleaner attached to an old 45 record player. There fixed.

  • John Kosto

    Got to get me some of these Magenta crystals

    • Aeden

      I’m not big on the pinks but this one will prolly be aesthetically pleasing having accented “black” effect like the early crystals. Hopefully.

      • Lasse David Sand Østergaard

        The “outlined” crystals are all fugly in my opinion. Any crystal that doesn’t have a white core looks wrong to me.

        • Holyfrog

          I guess you never saw the black core crystal from The Force Unleashed.

          • Aeden

            It’s all personal preference really but I wish some of the black ones were able to be added to collections so I could use them more often. Any saber crystal that has to be removed instead of just getting replaced rarely gets used by me. Not worth the cash seeing as I change my saber crystals like 15 X per Op. Some day…..hopefully.

  • a guy that wants to know

    Freddon Nadd was gay?

    It is the first time I see an armor like this for a sith lord. Its quite disturbing.

    • Mordicai

      Exactly what about that set screams “gay” to you? o.O

      • Silverstar

        Maybe he thinks the set looks fabulous.

        • Koz A Duke

          ^ This!

      • Guy_Innagorillasuit

        It must have given him pantsfeels.

    • Xorras

      Uh… What?

    • lord potato

      I don’t think you understand what “gay”means in all honesty

    • Cross Ikon

      Wait… What about that screams “gay” to you? I see some kind of corrupted winged creature thing going on. Looks pretty badass.

    • DarthPalidin

      Bird of Gay perhaps?

    Sweep emote… The only thing in this pack that really interests me.

    That is sad.

    Freedon Nadd and Primeval stalker look pretty epic

    This pack drops tomorrow (June 9)

    Source: SWTOR’s official Twitter

  • ShenLong

    Pack still not out yet? 🙂

    • Darth Ji’inx

      Should be out around noon EST (about another hour and a half).

      • ShenLong

        45 minutes AAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!!!

      • ShenLong

        Still nothin, dammit.

  • Theho

    The mount flourish for the Vondell Ruby opens/closes the roof on the speeder. I only opened four packs and got this speeder so I think I was very lucky.

  • Lucas

    Is the White/Orange dye in this one? If yes, ss it deep or dark orange?

  • Darth Ji’inx

    If anyone wants to see the new Revan Statue, Unfortunate Yavin Traveler, Revanite Battler, or the Revanite Planning Tent, I have them out on display in Nodek’s Nar Shaddaa Sky Palace on the Ebon Hawk.

    • Luke Groundpounder

      I’ll have to check that out. I have pretty much everything except the Unfortunate Traveler.

  • DrOph

    So glad they added the vacuum cleaner attachment to the front of the new bounty hunter set. Things can get messy out there, and it will go nicely wih the coffee machine installed on the back.

    • neckmeck

      I want a leaf blower on my chest!

  • ShenLong

    Got almost everything in a few HC’s, including one Ridge Hunter Rancor hooray. (^w^)/

    • Rancors

      Damn thats lucky.
      Can I borrow the Ranci ?
      For just a couple of years

  • whats?

    What’s the armor that looks like a Revan stone? It appears on the top right of the preview picture of the pack.

    • MetSnau

      Pretty sure that’s the Commemorative Statue of Revan, which I think is based off of the Revan Reborn armor set.

  • Naq

    Why do I like this pistol sooooo much?!

    • Steven Kucher

      because it’s realistically proportioned as opposed nearly every other pistol in the game which is hilariously oversized.
      just a guess

  • IncuBB .

    Eh… BW still manage to fuck things up…
    Animated armor is not working unless its in main armor slots.
    “Customized” armor will not show its effects.

    • Steven Kucher

      I like it better this way. It allows you to use the effects from this armor with any other customized armor

      • Azura

        So you can use the animated piece, stamp it with something else and the animation will remain on a different looking chestpiece?

        • Steven Kucher

          yes

          • Taco

            I can confirm that what Mr. Kucher says is correct. Thanks for the idea! Part of me thought you were just a troll to get people to waste their money but you are absolutely right. Just equip the piece as your main item and use the outfit designer to “apply” the effect to any piece of armor you want!

          • Thanks for the tip! Just saw this 🙂

  • neckmeck

    I have every item I like from this pack, by buing 0 packs!
    Great job BioWare! Ugly as fkc stuff saves me a lot of CC.

    • Koz A Duke

      Dude! Don’t be so harsh. The lead designer just had his seeing eye dog die this week, have a heart! That and I hear he found out that he got turned down to be put on the list of cornea transplants so that he can see color again. He’s got enough problems without your baseless rant! 🙂

  • Bob Bilbert

    Bad pack. 🙁

  • Havik79

    Wow this packs are getting more and more rubbish, not even any decos I want.
    Why do they keep pumping out ugly cyborg armour that no one wants, there are still dozens of whole sets you can get for under 20k.

    • Rebel Scum

      Just because they don’t have any decorations you want, doesn’t mean it’s rubbish. I actually wanted those decorations so I can have a Revanite Cult for the Yavin IV stronghold.

    • Aeden

      I know the helm looks odd but the cyber greaves have real potential. I want em’ both.

      • OuterRim

        The helmet is the best part of this piece of crap armor.

  • Chakra Kusanagi

    Is it just me or does it feel like we get less actual stuff (not just filler) from these latest packs?

    I seem to recall having to dump over stuff to my bank when opening a full hypercrate, but these last two packs have barely filled up my characters inventory :/

    It feels like there’s more filler than there used to be. More stackable items (ie. not armour, weapons, creatures, emotes or mounts).

    • Ark

      I agree- you used to usually get at least one armour piece in a pack, nowadays you often get no armor when opening a pack.

    • Koz A Duke

      Yea. Silly, and useless exp buff items are the most common drop now. I’m seeing just over 40 real items (about 90% junk). I think they are having an EVE moment. Just wait till you see how much that eye-patch is going to cost…

  • abaddonsmummy

    I think that bioware keep missing a trick here.
    On the mounts especially ones with closed cockpits when you zoom in to close to eye view you should be able to see out of the mounts front window. Its gives a mean perspective of the world. Sadly all the ones I can think of give an obscured view making it impossible to fly around like this i.e KDY lifter and Corellian Stardrives.

  • Aeden

    Can anyone report on drop rates for items? What’s looking rare so far?

    • Rancor/Vondell mounts are fairly rare, the Freedon Nadd armor is pretty common though

      • Aeden

        Music to my ears. Thanks Dulfy!

      • WStevens1701

        Agreed. After 3 Hypercrates, I got a Vondell and all but the pants and belt of the Freedon Nadd armor. Surprisingly enough, all the weapons *except* the lightsaber.

      For however much it may help, out of Four Hypercrates:

      Did not get: Commemorative Statue of Revan, Scarlet Mouse Horranth, Indestructible Magenta Outline Crystal, Energized Triumvirate Lower Body Armor, Primeval Stalker Leggings and Bracers, Revered Huntmaster Chestpiece and Leggings.

      Oddly enough the helms on the Primeval and Revered seem more common than other pieces from what I got. Squadron Leader stuff is common (especially boots and belt), Freedon Nadd stuff is fairly common (Chestpiece and Leggings were the most rare for me). Dynamic Brawler is common, Energized Triumvirate considerably less so. The Rancor, Uxibeast, and Razalon FC-9 only made one appearance apiece across four packs. Two Vondells, but one was from a “bonus box.” Revanite Altar, Planning Tent and Chandelier were uncommon along with the Yavin Banner. Yavin explorers seemed the most common decoration.

      Plasma Blaster and VL-10 Rifle seem to be the rarest weapons.

      • Holyfrog

        I got 3 banners in one crate.

      • Aeden

        That helped a lot. Thanks for posting.

  • Stilluff Fogg

    The Dynamic Brawler and Energized Triumvirate sets are fucking incredible. I LOVE the animation on the sets and the fact that they only activate when you draw your weapon. Fantastic. I really hope they keep doing this to new armor.

  • JasonRyder

    Black and Deep Brown dye seems to be quite rare. I haven’t seen it yet on Begeren Colony

    • I’ve noticed a pattern with blacked/mixed dyes….expensive and rare. Because everything looks cooler with a tint of shade…

  • I thought new mounts were going to start having cool animations or something of that nature. Is that still further in the year??

    • Only 1 mount per pack has the cool animation (flourish) and some new cartel market direct purchase mounts

  • Those electric sparks on the armor. Put them on a robe or weapon and I’m down.

    • p4v7

      Suppa Saiya-jin.

      • I would love something like that for Kakarotte (regular spelling was taken).

  • Luke Groundpounder

    Love the look of the blaster pistol. But the sound… gah. If there is such a thing as a laser pea shooter, that’s it.

  • Nyethux

    Does anyone know which items drop from the Platinum Pack?

    • Sarigar

      I got a Vondell Ruby in my first Platinum Pack, and Freedon Nadd’s helmet in the second.

      • Nyethux

        Thanks! Very useful info. Anyone else? Rancor perhaps..? *fingers crossed*

        • Yes I got a rancor off one of the platinum packs

    • Luke Groundpounder

      I have the worst luck with platinum packs. In one I got a Revered Huntmaster Belt and in the other I got a Nadd hat. Which I already had like 3 of from regular packs.

  • Kubrickian

    Bargain basement pricing at Shadowlands. These items are going for so little on the GTN. Freedon Nadd’s helmet 80k. Vondell 1.2 mil. Emote Sweep 75k. Magenta outline indestructible crystals 6k! And these are the early posters only the Primeval Stalker and the reskinned rancor apppear to be rare but once the majority posts their unlocked items they’ll probably drop by at least 60%.

  • Holyfrog

    I just hit the jackpot hypercrate. Opened the first pack and got a rancor. Went on to get unfortunate Yavin explorer, Revanite alter x2, planing tent, standard, and in the last pack the statue of Revan.

  • You missed the credit explosion- it’s in this crate also.

    • It is in pretty much every pack, same with reputation items and companion gifts.

      • I haven’t noticed them in every pack. It might be RNG, but some packs, I get them decently often, and others never. And we’re talking about hyperpacks, so as non-rare as they are, it would seem that out of 24/48/72 of the same pack, if you get none of any of them, it probably isn’t in it.

      • I would recommend including things like that in pages like this; I had to buy a hypercrate to find out how much reputation a hypercrate was likely to give me (I believe HC+2 packs got me to Friend).

  • Koz A Duke

    I’m glad that we get another Pink crystal. We don’t need any real dark red ones or anything. Pink.. Yup, that was definitely the way to go.

  • Darth Ji’inx

    @Dulfy

    The Dynamic Brawler chest has an animation. The blue light on the center of the chest and on the backpack turns orange when your weapon is drawn.

    On your post about applying the animation effects to other armors, I noted how this animation applies differently from the other animated pieces of armor.

    • Interesting, I did not noticed it. Thanks for the heads up, I will make some edits to update it.

  • Pherdnut

    It’s a shame they couldn’t leave the sparking glowing effects in place when overlapping different gear or hiding helmets with the appearance tabs. If anything that would only make the items more popular. The brawler headgear looks kind of silly when it’s not doing the glowy eyes thing IMO but I forgot how much I missed having combat-stance contingent aura stuff in City of Heroes.

  • Cross Ikon

    omfg, the Vondell… *drools*

  • Daniel

    HI , You need to add more color crystals, You can find them at collections

  • Gagboot

    B300 bracers have an enhancement slot 🙂

    • Taco

      You realize when you say these things that people actually listen right? People as in, Bioware. You know, the company that will take that information and get rid of the enhancement slot.

    • Jarrish

      One of the most popular SWtOR sights on the internet, fairly certain they have a few people check this daily lol.

  • IslandDweller

    Why does the Energized Triumvirate set look like a Rancor ate and then pooped it out?

  • Dynamic Brawler has just the sort of headpiece I’ve been looking for to complete my Guardian.
