Blade of the Elite Bulwark

The Blade of the Elite Bulwark is a Crafting Armstech Archived Special Trainer vibrosword that can be found in Star Wars: The Old Republic. The Blade of the Elite Bulwark can be worn at any level in the Outfitter - it's a cosmetic weapon, and has no stats attached to it.

How to Get: Crafting Armstech Archived Special Trainer (Retired Schematic)

This is a direct screenshot of the Blade of the Elite Bulwark! The file name is blade-of-the-elite-bulwark-7061-thumbnail.png - as long as I named it right and didn't mix up its name with another weapon, this should be an exact screenshot of this weapon, which I or another player actively owned.

Sound: Tritech

All Vibroblades with the Tritech sound type have the same sound, including the Blade of the Elite Bulwark. This isn't the official name, and this Vibroblade sound type may be labelled something like weaponmeleevibroblade01 in the background of the game.

I do not have a video of the Blade of the Elite Bulwark, but you can watch a video of the Trimantium Techblade (vibrosword version) weapon to hear the Tritech sound type, which is the same as the Blade of the Elite Bulwark.

How to Get Archived Armstech Trainer Special Weapons

Read more about these weapons at the SWTOR Armstech Crafting Guide page on Swtorista.com.

The Armstech crew skill trainer can teach players how to craft many crafted weapons sets as they level up in Armstech. However, these semi-retired crafted weapons sets are no longer available to be learned from the Armstech trainer from the launch of the game 1.0 - they were removed from the trainer in Update 4.0, and replaced with a more streamlined set of weapons schematics to be learned from the trainer. However, if you can find someone who learned the old schematics from the trainer pre-4.0, they can craft you these items, as the crafted items are Binds on Equip.

How to get the Blade of the Elite Bulwark

The Blade of the Elite Bulwark is a crafted Vibrosword, but the ability to learn how to craft it yourself is no longer available. Only players who learned the ability to craft it in the past can craft it now - so you will need to find someone who can craft it for you, or get lucky and find it on the GTN.
