Star Wars: The Old Republic: "Sarlacc Enforcer" Class Announced!

MikeBMikeB Community ManagerAdministrator RarePosts: 6,555

Jedi and Sith just don't do it for you? How about playing a Sarlacc in Star Wars: The Old Republic? BioWare has announced today the new "Sarlacc Enforcer" class which reveals some things about Sarlacc's you may have not known. For example, did you know Sarlaccs regularly serve as mercenaries-for-hire?

Some lesser known facts about  the Sarlacc can be found below:

Most Sarlacc have learned more about the galaxy than most other professionals could hope to learn in ten human lifetimes. Not only has an average Sarlacc done everything under the double suns, many techniques that are synonymous with other professionals were innovated and perfected by a cunning, resourceful Sarlacc.

Every Smuggler knows that one dropped shipment could lose him respect – and a year’s worth of credits, but only the insane would search for contraband cleverly stashed in the belly of a Sarlacc. Imperial Agents breaking the will of interrogated prisoners rely heavily on techniques handed down to them by the Sarlacc – who are known to telepathically torture information out of their most reticent victims. Jedi Knights train for years to master The Way of the Sarlacc, Shii-Cho Lightsaber form as the foundation of their amazing combat prowess. Consulars of the Jedi Order spend long hours meditating on Sarlacc to develop the dissonant serenity that keeps them calm in the midst of chaos. Bounty Hunters – a Sarlacc delicacy – have perhaps benefitted most from developing contacts in the Sarlacc Underground; it is here that hunting and trapping are brought to new heights and Bounty Hunters learn to become great, or die. No team would have the skills it needs to survive its mission without the practice and invention of a dedicated Sarlacc.

Find out more about the new Sarlacc Enforcer class here.

    The book Tales of the Bounty Hunters describes Boba Fett's time in the Sarlacc and his eventual escape (you didn't think some puny Sarlacc could keep him, did you?) I recommend the book, it's a good read.

    /sigh BioWare is already screwing this game up... The Sarlaac class is going to be way too over powered, and will have too many advantages over the other known classes they have announced. I hope they find a way to balance the overall playability of the class, I'd hate to see it destroy this wonderful MMO.

    Hopefully it won't be a CS-exclusive class, available for a micro-transaction of $100 ;)

    I'm so angry I'm giving up completely on Star Wars and having some Tribbles N' Bits cereal to forget my pain.

    Very Funny Article :)

  • edgecrusher213edgecrusher213 Member UncommonPosts: 17

    The aurebesh under Sarlacc Enforcer gives more hints about the class:  "The Original Noodly Appendage"

    along the side of the page reads "Jawa Extreme Sport: Scarlacc Salvage Fishing"

     

    Well played, Bioware.

    LOL! Awesome, best April Fools joke I've seen all day.

  • RipclawRipclaw Member UncommonPosts: 190

    There's also another April Fools joke on MMOSite about the game offically announced as being Free to Play and going into beta VERY soon.

    http://news.mmosite.com/content/2010-03-31/star_wars_the_old_republic_will_be_free_to_play.shtml

    I love April Fools day. ;P

  • MoiraeMoirae Member RarePosts: 3,318

    lol. Nice April Fools.

  • describabledescribable Member UncommonPosts: 407

    ahh i do love when companies do this... i thought google's one was pretty obvious but amusing (since there IS already an app for baby noises translator and i'm not kidding)

    the newspaper one today was kinda poor, about women leaving cars in a polite manner from a new book.

    ahhh so much fun to be had :D

    Would you imagine if this class really existed? , if it could move then it'd be instant death to any passengers xD.

    Happy April Fools btw. o.-
