I didn't like the prequel films much, but after seeing Attack of the Clones and playing the PS2 game Bounty Hunter I took a liking to Jango Fett and Zam Wesell. This armor is worn by Zam in AotC and is also seen in Bounty Hunter, as well as being a playable armor in Star Wars Galaxies. It is a simple reskin of an existing armor in Knights of the Old Republic: The Sith Lords (which I assume was based on the mabari armorweave) so it was a simple matter of giving it the right color and, of course, the matching helmet. Only usable in TSL!

DATE RELEASED: 27 October 2005

CREDITS: Lucas's companies, in general. Either way, they came up with the concept, regardless of what film/game it was from.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS: Put helm.tga, i_mask_078.mdl, i_mask_078.mdx, ii_mask_078.tga, ia_ClassZS_078.tga, mabari.uti, mabari_helmet.uti, helm.txi, PMBM78.tga, and PFBM78.tga into your SWKotoR2/Override directory. To uninstall, remove these files.

DESCRIPTION: I always liked Zam Wessel's character in Episode 2, though her role was short-lived, and I especially liked her in the spin-off game Bounty Hunter. On top of that, Mabari Armorweave was one of my favorite armors from Star Wars Galaxies. I was very excited to see that the guys at Obsidian modeled it into the game, but alas they didn't go all the way and actually include a skin of Zam's armor! So I figured I'd make the helmet and throw in a (mostly) properly colored skin of the Zeison Sha armor.

The armor stats are based on the descriptions of the armor I found, so I'm hoping you guys don't find them over the top. I wanted to give it some balance as a light armor, but also provide a bit more protection than the normal Zeison Sha armor so there was some incentive to use it. The stats are a combination of descriptions as well as the bonuses the armor had in SWG.

Mabari Armorweave:
-8 Defense
-5 Max Dexterity Bonus
-Stealth +5
-Electrical Immunity +25%

Mabari Armorweave Helmet:
-Electrical Immunity +5%
-Imunity: Stun, Fear, Horror
-Awareness +3

BUGS: As you can tell from the model name (i_MASK_078) the helmet is scrapped together out of what's supposed to be a mask model. As such, with certain models, there are hair clipping issues. This is most prominent on female models (like Mira, for instance), but if I made the helmet any bigger you'd feel like you had a super-sized pasta strainer on your head, so I compromised. It looks alright on most of the male models, however, and goes quite well with the armor skin in my opinion.

COMMENTS: Seriously, someone go to the forums and give me some suggestions...
