Dark Acolyte

Dark Acolyte Armor Set

The Dark Acolyte armor set is a crafted armor set that Synthweavers can craft at synthweaving level 20 if they have found the schematic in Star Wars: The Old Republic. This set is wearable only by Imperial characters, who are level 11 or higher, but is only wearable by Sith Warriors* and Sith Inquisitors*, even in the Outfitter tab.

* Who can wear this class-specific armor? In Update 7.0, the way you fight with your character was seperated from their story class. Many old armors still have story class replies written on their tooltips, but these tooltips are not correct.

Only wearable by: Imperial characters who have these Combat Styles...

* Only wearable by certain combat styles Guardian / Juggernaut / Sentinel / Marauder

* Only wearable by certain combat styles Shadow / Assassin / Sage / Sorcerer

Crafting the Dark Acolyte Armor Set as a Synthweaver

Synthweavers can craft the Dark Acolyte armor set at synthweaving level 20 or higher. To craft this set, Synthweavers must first find the schematic which can be found in the world and through crew skill missions at random. The easiest way to get this schematic is to buy it from another player on the GTN. This schematic is not always available on the GTN, so players should continue checking the GTN over time to see if it becomes available.

Read more about Synthweaving schematics on the SWTOR Synthweaving Crafting Tree page on Swtorista.com.

Buying the Dark Acolyte Armor Set from the GTN with Credits

Pieces of the Dark Acolyte set can be found on the GTN, which is an auction house where players can buy and sell unbound items. To find the GTN at level 10 or higher, look for the Galactic Trade Network section of the Republic or Imperial Fleet.

Read more about how to buy items on the GTN on the How to use the GTN Guide page on Swtorista.com.

Republic-side

This armor set changes appearance when it is transferred Republic-side. It keeps the same name, but will take the appearance of a set for the mirror-class of this set.
