How to Get Tech Fragments Armors

These armors can be purchased directly from a vendor called the Cosmetic Armor and Weapons vendor (Z9-V86 droid) in the Supplies section of the Fleet. The versions from this vendor are Bind to Legacy. These armors do not change between factions and you can buy all the sets on either side. Each piece costs 3,500 Tech fragments plus 500,000 credits, so a full set is quite expensive, but is accessible even to free-to-play players if they save up and buy the set piece-by-piece.

Read more about these armors at the Tech Fragments Guide page on Swtorista.com.

The Tech Fragments armor set is legacy-bound which means it can be shared between your characters.

Read more about what legacy-bound armors are on the Legacy-Bound Armor Guide page on Swtorista.com.

GTN: These older armors were originally available in Galactic Command boxes in the 5.0 expansion, so you may be able to find the Bind-to-Equip versions left over from the previous expansion on the GTN from players who had extras leftover to sell, though they will likely be hard to come by, and expensive. The ones on the GTN seem to be the same as the ones on the Tech Fragment vendor, though I can't promise they don't change appearance, so make sure to preview them before you buy them on the GTN.
