    I contemplated and actually started writing a thread promoting my own Swtor related cult; how it will bring virtual salvation, redeem our souls and how even Jezus will play it because He doesn't swim anyway. Just like we discussed in private messages. But then I had second thoughts and realized I would be a happier person being a disciple of your Vaporware Death Cult. I recognize a superior being when I see one and I am happy to serve you and spread your gospel, Lord Tardcore.

    I will be making a A pure blood Sith Warrior specialized as a Marauder first. But I am pretty sure I will play every classes to max level if only for their story.

     

    But my Sith Warrior will most likely be my main. My guild's loyalty lies with the Emperor.

    If the game has positional combat (black stuff has spawned on the floor so don't stand in the black stuff) and scripted boss fights (he's going to cast soon run away) I'll roll the best type of ranged damage dealer, if that crap isn't in the game, then I'll roll the best type of healer.

    I hope that crap isn't part of the game because I enjoy healing - I just hate running around like a chicken with my head cut off while doing it.

    Oh and lightside of course image.

    I'm planning for:

    Jedi Sage Healer-spec Human male, Crafter: Consumables

    Jedi Guardian Tank-spec Human male, Crafter: Jedi Artifacts

    Considering that each character requires ~200 hours of gameplay for just the class quests, I will restrict myself to these two characters for the moment.

    Polls in official forum show about 60% Forceusers.

    Then again ... those inquisitors look very nasty as well ... and the Assassin is more stealthy than a marauder and probably has a ton of CC + an awesome companion.

    Though the Agent was my favorite, it is too much of a ranged class for me and I don't like the need to "Duck and Cover!" all the time. I think the Agent will end up feeling like a 'slow gameplay' class compared to many of the others.

    Naaaah this is a MMO. Rogues are high dps classes. And ranged rogue isnt so bad.

    Slow gameplay classes will be healers and tanks.

    1. Err, ever seen top gamers ? Those "Kiddos" are the people who have time and youth to develop skill.

    2. Since when do "kiddos" prefer light side ? I dont think so.

    Sith Warrior, but I'm unsure if it'll be Juggernaut or Marauder. I'm also unsure if I'll roll Cyborg, Pureblood, or Zabrak.

  • MillbargeMillbarge Member Posts: 46

    Right now I'm leaning towards rolling an Inquisitor or Imperial Agent...but a big part of me wants to roll a Jedi of some sort just because the armor  at higher levels doesn't look so silly.

    Just remember what ol' Jack Burton does when the earth quakes, and the poison arrows fall from the sky, and the pillars of Heaven shake. Yeah, Jack Burton just looks that big ol' storm right square in the eye and he says, "Give me your best shot, pal. I can take it."

    Sith Inquisitor. Not sure yet Sorcerer or Assassin. May the Force be with Me!

  • DIR3W0LFDIR3W0LF Member UncommonPosts: 64

    Start out with a Jedi Knight or Consular and going to a Bounty Hunter as my alt :) cant wait

    See, I can be funny too.  image (Don't you even THINK to report this.)

    Hehe, I wouldn't dream of it.

    But yeah, the dark side really calls me. (And it seems to call an awful lot of other people too which is maybe my biggest concern with Swtor: faction balance *shivers*)

    And evil faction always rules in PVP, because kiddos all play good. image

    Yeah, the downside is they have to stand in line for pvp a lot longer. Maybe if faction balance will end up being a serious problem I'll reroll Jedi Knight, Consular or Crotch Cannon. It's always nice and challenging to be the underdog on a server imo.

     So pvp is going to be instance based?

  • Asmiroth20Asmiroth20 Member Posts: 346

        As of now, I'll be rolling a Imperial Agent Operative.  It seems the closest thing to what my old Carbineer/Combat Medic, healing and support fire.

        Warzones are the instance-based pvp scenarios.  On the other hand you have your open-world pvp, which if I remember correctly, it was also said they planned on having territories to fight over to control in addition to the old "I just plain don't like you" kind of open-world fighting.

    there will be both instanced pvp(called Warzones) and world pvp

    http://darthhater.com/2011/05/05/fan-site-summit-gabe-amatangelo-interview/

    Gabe Amatangelo: I want to touch on open world PvP. We're going to have PvP servers, and on the PvE servers there will be designated PvP areas. On a PvE server, you aren't going to flag unless you want to flag yourself, or unless you go into a designated PvP area that is going to be completely isolated from quests and story lines and that kind of stuff. Now, we're not talking about the goals inside those areas today, but we are saying that it is there. People can go and fight each other there.

    Are these Open World PvP areas guild- or faction-based?



    We're not talking about the goals of those areas. I know Darth Hater and all the people who follow you are really group conscious. You guys are guilds. We want to do everything we can to accommodate that type of game play.



    Today we're focusing on a few systems that we haven't talked about before. The focus of them is promoting a good, healthy PvP community and allowing players to play the role they want in PvP. There are a number of systems that roll into those two points.

     

    http://www.mmorpg.com/gamelist.cfm/game/367/feature/5202/PvP-Interview.html/page/1



    MMORPG.com:

    What forms of PvP are available in Star Wars: The Old Republic?



    Emmanuel Lusinchi:

    Well, we have announced two. There are only two. There are the warzones, that you have actually tried today, which is a very codified engagement, because we wanted it to be fair, so 8 vs. 8, objective, very clear, we show you what you're supposed to do and we're going to reward you based on whether you complete the objectives. There is much more reward for the team that wins than the team that doesn't win. Very team oriented gameplay, that's one.

    Another one is a kind of PvP that naturally occurs when people don't like each other meet somewhere on the planet. Traditional, really. We did do a few change to the traditional formula, even on a PvE server, because we have PvP and PvE servers, and some people on PvE servers don't want to be subjected to PvP, we have a zone we're going to mark as, "There will be PvP. Beware." It's a dangerous place; you don't have to go there, I mean you will have a way to skirt it, but we want that kind of engagement to be there.

    There's a third one, which is just dueling. You can turn towards a friend or stranger and duel them, and that's another form that is in the game right now.

    I would play jedi consular if they had green force lightning.  I think it's a travesty that the jedi's can't use force lightning.  Didn't Yoda use lightning once against Dooku?

    No, he blocked Dooku's lightning :)

    Perhaps in order to use lightning you need to draw from the dark side. Maybe that's why Jedi don't use it. Purely a guess.

    Yoda reflected force (sith) lightning back at Dooku he also just absorbed it and made it harmless. So its not quite the same thing as generating it himself. FFS how many nerd points did I just rack up by knowing that?
