Edited to update information.

I never saw this information on the swtor website in this much detail.

I can't wait to use force choke, especially in PVP!

I wonder if you can unlock Darth Vader armour? That would be very cool.

Indeed it would! My favorite heavy Sith armor, however, was Malak's. Revan's armor is still my favorite overall, but obviously his armor was more orientated to what the SI would use.

Exactly and Ah yes, I really like Revan's too. I believe Bioware mentioned that revans armor will be unlockable through some very difficult quest.

That would be amazing! On the other hand, however, I really hope they enable some variety of 'dye' system so that we can be different, otherwise there will be a whole slew of Revan impersonators.

It would be somewhat of an eyesore to see everyone walking around with the exact same look like other games. I hate that in wow every max level toon looks the same depending on class. It's either the gear is too easy to get, there aren't enough models, or they just really need more customization options.

Then again, every jedi would want brown, and every sith would want black
