Buying the Forward Recon Armor Set from the GTN with Credits

Pieces of the Forward Recon 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.

When searching for pieces of the Forward Recon's armor set, search just for Forward Recon instead of its full name - the pieces may be sold on their own, as part of a bundle of pieces, or as part of an entire set called the Forward Recon Armor Set. Don't forget to sort by price lowest to highest to find the best deal!

Trading for the Forward Recon Armor Set with Another Player

Other players may have a Forward Recon Armor Set they are trying to sell, or its individual pieces. You can post in the /trade chat ingame to ask if anyone is selling the set, post on the official forums for your server, post on the /r/swtor_trade subreddit, or post in the #trading-terminal channel of the SWTOR Discord Chat.

Buying the Forward Recon Armor Set Directly from the Cartel Market with Cartel Coins

The Forward Recon Armor Set may be available for direct purchase from the Cartel Market with Cartel Coins. Cartel Coins can be bought with real money, subscribers receive 500 per month, players with a security key earn 100 per month, and you can also earn Cartel Coins through achievements. When searching on the Cartel Market for this item, search for the term Forward Recon. Items are regularily rotated in and out of the Cartel Market, so what is actually available for purchase on any given day is random.

Won by Random Chance from Ultimate Packs

Ultimate packs are an item that can be bought from the Cartel Market, and contain random items from the Cartel Market. The Forward Recon Armor Set is one of thousands of possible items that could be dropped from an Ultimate Pack.

Older Cartel Market items also drop from specific types of Cartel Packs, which are similar to Ultimate Packs but instead may only drop a smaller selection of items. These types of Cartel Packs are mostly retired and are hard to find.
