Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic/Robes

From StrategyWiki, the video game walkthrough and strategy guide wiki

Jedi Defense is required to use robes, so only Jedi classes can do so.

According to Feedback, the Defense Bonus of robes is included in feats and effects, which is restricted to +10 maximum. For example, a Jedi using a Jedi Master Robe (+3), Master Speed (+4) and Force Armor (+6) only receives a defense bonus of +10, not +13.

Although the descriptions for robes display Max Dexterity Bonus, according to Feedback this restriction doesn't actually apply. Hence even though all robes display Max Dexterity Bonus: +8, Dexterity modifiers greater than +8 are still added to defense in their entirety.

This means Jedi normally use robes instead of armor, particularly since many Force powers are restricted when using armor.

Qel-Droma Robes[edit]

KotOR Item Jedi Knight Robe, Brown.png
The Force is strong in the Qel-Droma blood, and many of the family have joined the Jedi Order over the centuries. These robes were created as a gift for Cay Qel-Droma during the war against Exar Kun, and it is said that only one who truly walks the path of the light can wear them. Cay himself wore the robes in his duel against Ulic Qel-Droma, his brother who had fallen to the dark side. Cay was slain in the battle, but his death at his brother’s hand would eventually lead to Ulic’s redemption. These powerful robes then passed down to Duron Qel-Droma, Cay’s cousin, when he joined the Jedi. But Duron disappeared shortly after the time of the Great Hunt, and the robes were lost with him.

Darth Revan's Robes[edit]

KotOR Item Darth Revan's Robes.png
Created by the mystical technology of the Star Forge, these robes focus the dark side energies of the wearer, fueling their power. The Sith Lord Darth Revan was wearing similar robes when captured by the Jedi, who viewed the garments as an abomination and destroyed them. However the Jedi Council, not being familiar with the origins of the robes, were unaware that the Star Forge would be capable of producing an item of such terrible power a second time.

Star Forge Robes[edit]

KotOR Item Star Forge Robes.png
Created by the mystical technology of the Star Forge, these robes focus the inherent Force abilities of the wearer, fueling their power. Although the Star Forge itself is an artifact of the dark side, these robes were customised using an analysis of the Jedi they were created for, resulting in a powerful light side item that the Jedi can safely use against their enemies without fear of taint or corruption.
