- Phrik Warplate: Favored often by Guardians, the Watchman-pattern is capable of soaking up far more damage than the average robes. A blast vest and gauntlets both made of phrik provides for limited lightsaber deflection. A standard Jedi utility belt can be modified to carry all sorts of spare equipment depending on the needs of the Judge or the job.
- Impact Gel: Coated with a thin layer of kinetic impact gel, when the armor is struck this underlayer will harden into a crystalline protective layer, dispersing the force of impact.
- Stealth Jetpack: To make up for the expeditionary suit's lack of mobility, a Whisper jetpack with sound bafflers allows the Judge to traverse difficult terrain even in heavy armor. It has a maximum altitude of seventy meters and comes equipped with hover mode.
- Exposed: Falling short of full body armor, the wearer's upper arms and lower half is exposed. While this allows a Judge more maneuverability, it has obvious drawbacks in terms of overall protection.
- Crystallization: The warplate's impact gel does not soften after crystallizing. It can only withstand impact force once in a given location before becoming ineffective, and the wearer's mobility is reduced the more hits they take.
- Vacuum Rating: Issued along with an optional thinsuit underlayer, this additional piece to the ensemble is for emergency use only and not designed to stand up to extended operations in vacuum. It has about as much insulation as a starfighter pilot's flight suit.
About the closest thing there is to standard issue uniforms for the Coalition Judges. A Ranger, Oracle, or Watchman-pattern Expeditionary Suit is provided to each new Deputy in the predominantly Force based law enforcement tradition once their preliminary training is completed. Intended to provide new recruits with everything they need to begin working out in the field, these suits are very modular and tend to be molded into an image of the Judge who wears them. A Jedi beacon transceiver allows its wearer to keep in touch with their superiors, and a forearm mounted holopad can be used to quickly access intel or establish communications.
A standard Jedi utility belt has been ever so slightly modified to allow for the addition of a prominent thigh holster for the symbolic sidearms Judges are known to employ. The other pouches are filled with miscellaneous useful items such as a backup comlink, medkit, grapple launcher, rebreather, glowrod, and lightsaber repair tools. This equipment can of course be swapped in and out with other gadgets as the situation demands, and there are additional pouches interspersed at regular intervals along the suit's bandolier.
