  1. Then it is poorly designed. I dont want them removed. I want them to stop being anoying. Remove them or make them worth fighting. Both are fine.
  2. 1: being the execption to the rule doesnt change the fact most do. 2: You also get those from bosses, quests, and picking up crate's. 3: Plenty of mmo's that dont need meaningless trash(eve online for example) 4: I shoud have added barely. 5: Run by npc with a speeder when underleveled and get shot off near the end of the zone...i agree it was the only time fighting mobs was fun. 6: Makes money meaningless & doesnt control the pace in the slighest(most time spend comes from moving to target, not killing) 7: Those are not trash mobs. 8: Not in swtor. Misinterpation. I meant: Why is something that doesnt add anything in the game? The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few. 9: Eve online, star wars galaxie, ark online all say hi.
  3. I didnt ask why they where here. I asked if/why they where neccery. Players rush to max level and skip mobs all the time shows they dont even serve as a speedbumb anymore. So if they dont even slow players down. What good are they? And i agree that perspective is flawed. An world with none moving static enemies is more lifeless then a empty world. Atleast in an empty world roleplayers can have alot of different zones to roleplay in. Right now entire zones are offlimet because of enemies that dont do anything exect get in the way/anoy.
  4. We all skip mobs. Even when it would be quicker to kill them. Why? Because they are compleetly meaningless. All they do is slow us down. Even when outnumbered hunderd to one mobs are nothing more then a speed bump. It makes me curious: Why are they even in game? Players either simply avoid them or curbstomp through them. While i dont see them disapearing anytime soon. I still like to hear other people's point of view.
  5. Name: Firstborn. Roleplay: Politic's. I suggest your guild to be all about sith politic's. Your sith players shoud be building up there power bases with people who are acctively planing to take there power(rather then npc who never will) The roleplay goal for sith is to get to the top of the chain. It can create many senario's when several sith players are trying to outsmart eatchother. None sith are "pawns" ofcourse anyone who played an agent know's how powerfull a "pawn" can be if (s)he manipulate both side's. A bounty hunter can be hired for the right price to make sure rivals meet an untimely end. Ofcourse any sith being to obvious might end up dead. After all if you become to big of a threat..... Basicly you should play your rp like you are living as a person in the empire. Instead of a plot armor protected portaganist. Have a special rank called: dead. Make sure that players who are "dead" cant simply reclaim there power base. Everyone has to pretend there dead and there charater is a compleetly new person who just happen to look 100% the same .
  6. While satele shan isnt a very good jedi. Force severed is going to far. Force severing someone is like ripping out someone's nerves system. You are denying them all sences. It is only used on the truly dangerous. Those who simply cannont be allowed access to the force. Exiled from the jedi order? Sure. Force severed? No. Valkurion is the only charater in star wars the old republic that deserve suchs a fate. Even the worst actions sith and jedi commit in this game doesnt deserve force severing. I cant stress this enough. Force severing is a fate worse then death. It shoud never be used unless there is no other way.
  7. I think the jedi consular is the strongest force user in the game. He regular uses the force to blast open door's, heal wounds, force push people across the room. In a 1vs1 dual. One is a master lightsaber dualist the other can heal himself and force push you indefinitly. In a army vs army: One act as agent for the emperor the other had to require entire armies and did so in mere months(if not quicker) If i would pity my jedi sage vs my sith juggenought. The sage would wipe the floot with my sith juggenought in all content. He is smarter, stronger with the force, has done alot more, has many friends. The only way my sith juggenough could win is if he manage to deliver a killing blow while being offered a chance for redemption. The sith warrior and jedi knight are the most know frontless heroes. Not the strongest of the story. A jedi knight kills the "Emperor" the sith warrior exchange being a slave from barus to a slave to the emperors hand. The sith warrior needed a dark council member to let them into the council chambers. In comparision the sith inqisitors simply walk/killed his way inside. The jedi knight and sith warriors are poster boys. Good for reqruitment and propaganda. But sage's are the once who get the job done. Need friends: You need a sage. Need someone kept alive: sage's can heal people back from near death. Need someone dead: Send an agent. Need someone looking like a awesome but is compleetly irelevent: Get yourself a sith warrior.
  8. While playing the story i encounter many scenarios where the obvious dialog that should be there wasnt there. I want everyone to put into this topic the moments they found the dialog lacking something that shoud obvious be there. Here i demonstrate: Class: trooper. Location: corosant. Mission: Cyborg doctor: Hostage's part. There was no dialog for suggesting getting them to the hospital for full body exemination. Which would easly solve the question if they had been modified aswhile as ensure they get proper healthcare threatment after being kidnapped and expiremented upon. Also garaza ordering my trooper to shoot civlians would in most western armies(witch the republic is based on) be consider an illigal order going against everything the republic stand for. By right i shoud be able to court marshel her for giving suchs an order. But i wasnt given the option to call her out on that. Nope it was just: It didnt feel right. Instead of being able to tell her the order is against everything the republic stand for you just sound like a wimp who feels. Instead of a soldier who doesnt allow politic's to get in the way of duty. Your turn.
  9. Not really. It took her 15 seconds to rip appart small metal walls. Kneel before the dragon of zakuul because we cant have you beat our main bad girl. Despite having done zero damage(shields for the win) and her constantly fleeing from us. Honestly the entire storyline was awefull. But i am not asking if she is powerfull. I am asking why we shoud fear her. She does nothing i havent seen jedi sage do before. Jedi counciler blast open reforced 1 meter think door with a single force blast. Rips off a megnaticly sealed escape pods door and trows in 2 meters away without breaking a sweat. He defeated several jedi masters after just leaving typon. Defeated sons of the emperor. Honestly the jedi consular storyline seem hellbend on making jedi seem very easy mind control. The jedi consular is pretty is the definition of jedi(you can tell by the dark side choices still being very nice and humble) He doesnt break necks. That is more of a sith warrior fetish. Jedi consulars are the least showy of all the force using classes. And is still consider by many stronger(or atleast as strong) as a fully fed sith inqisitor(who needed force ghosts to reach there level) Also getting forced pushed is the force users version of saying hello. Mid air meaning more time to correct her landing. Being forced push when on the ground leaves alot of less time to correct your landing. If i have to read a short story means they(once again) fail to show it ingame. Also if that was the case why didnt she just push sanya away when she was a at her mercy. Are you claiming her desire to beat her mother in lightsaber combat prevented her from defending herself from a possible killing blow? Arcann is never talked about as being possible more powerfull the valkurion. A guy who drained a freaking planet and cheated death more times then the sith inqisitor. Vaylin is consider to be possible more powerfull then valkurion if it wasnt for the fact she was brainwashed. And we are never show any evidence of this. She could have had her charater moment by using the force to effortless pull down our ships during the voss mission. She could have been shown how powerfull she was by having her effortly beat someone we know is powerfull. But she doesnt. Vulkurion one shots darth mar, drains planets, body surf on a regular basis and we beat him after he stole our body because of duex ex holocron. Vaylin has shown us nothing that make her any more powerfull then the dark council members we regularly solo. Arcann needed an entire army to do that. Valyin sends her fleet and gets driven off at voss. And dont get my started on voss. The empire has the means to compleetly subjugate that planet within days and it wasnt even part of the republic so it woudnt violate the threaty of corusant to do so. Yes the voss are execelt at predicting the future. But the ability to see the future doesnt give you the ability to prevent it from happening. (warhammer 40k does an execelt job of discribing how complicated prediciting the future is. Given how much change a single choice can make) It doesnt mather if you can predict my every movement if you dont have the means to counter said movements. And a single imperial fleet shoud have the man power and fire power to take a single planet with a single city. The voss dont have the numbers to beat back any galatic invaders. And sith are very very very very deadly combatens.
  10. I know the feeling. My jedi sage: Member of the jedi council. Healer of the sith plague. All around epic healer who can keep entire armies alive? Smarted charater in the game. Doesnt heal himself or help lena blast open the door. Doesnt use the force to sheild himself when acran tries to hit him. Doesnt use lift and force push vaylin off a building. Etc. So many times i was asking myself: why dont i just use this and win. And the answer: http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/CutsceneIncompetence If our charaters where allowed to accauly do smart things. The game would only last a hour. Personaly: I would have had the empire and republic war last for hunderds of years. There is so many thing's that could have been done. Imperials level a planet. Republic rebuild it. Republic steals planes for a new sith ship. Sith use said ship prototype to cripple/destroy an republic ship yard. We could have cutesence where our enemies flee from us or have our charaters have there own way to breat down the door. I honestly cant wrape my head around how they when from eatch class is different to one size fits all.
  11. They did a real poor job of showing that then. My charater at most looked slightly tired. It also doesnt explain why we shoud fear vaylin. She does nothing the entire story. Execpt kill her own people. Claiming someone is extreemly powerfull doesnt make it true. Nobody believe the sith inqisitor was powerfull. And look how they ended up.
  12. The problem with sith is that they are given increasingly more power as most writtens cant write an interesting story. So they take the short cut and just trow there loveable-can-do-no-wrong hero vs overpower-evilist-person-who-ever-lifed-and-is-better-then-the-other-villians-because-my-ego-is-big. There are force abilities that can cut of force powers. A jedi can use the force to sheild themself vs anything. The difference between jedi and sith is how they use the force. The jedi use meditation and a calm mind to ask the force to add them. The sith use there passions to force to force to obey them. Passion tents to leave you in a tunnel vision. Part of the reason jedi win wars i because they remain calm in any situation. Where sith become to focused on there goal they dont see the traps or are so focus on there own power they weaken there own empire. This is because jedi are in control of themself. Where sith are slaves of there passions. The force has no limets. If you believe it is possible. There is a high chance it is possible. Most force users are limeted by what they believe is possible. Not think but believe. How many people would believe the can lift a rock? No mather how much they want to if they dont believe it doesnt happen. Jedi could use the force to avoid being hit by the death field or simple turn it off. They could use the force to feed the death field instead of there own life energie. The jedi dont show off. If i was to kill a sith sorceror spamming death field i would be using force sprint, force wave, stun, sheild, etc. Or if a was playing jedi knight. Force push, force jump, interupt. Using the force require's concetration. Keeping your enemy on the defends, tire them out, or use the force to make you tireless are all options. A jedi can cast lighting as easly as a sith. But why would they? Lighting is a tool of the dark side. It is used to hurt not help. Had bane or Zannah been jedi they would have had the same level of incluence with the force but not use suchs abilities. Yoda vs darth sideious show that sideious was nearly beaten by a 900 year old. Who could counter his "Overpowered" force lighting. Yoda is a old man who can barely move. But the force allows him to fight like a 20 year old acrobate. The jedi beat the sith the same way we do ingame. With teamwork, cooperation, kindness, love, plot armor, and the force.
  13. This was written from a sage point of view: Now i get that being frozen in carbonite isnt the most pleasent of experiance but why are our charaters fleeing from vaylin? At this point in time she would(to us) be nothing more then just an other sith lord...... For that mather why dont force users help lena rip open the door? A knight/warrior can kinda be excueesed as the force isnt there area of experetise but my sage force push doors open on a regular bases. For that mather we dont seem that effected by the posioning. It is just in one cutsence we only tire out a bit once and we arent even that tired. I mean we arent given any reason to believe we are outmatch. Poor exictution not withstanding. Despite everyone claiming vaylin might be even stronger then volkurion. She doesnt do anything to even remotely prove she is anything more then just an other target. Sure she "riped" a ractor appart but: size means nothing to the force. Most jedi and sith are limeted by inmagination and willpower more then ability.(Something i can related to as most people i know have the inmagination of a pond compaire to my galaxie size fantasy) I am trying to understand why our charaters would ever fear vaylin? During the entire story there wasnt a single time i could find any reason to believe vaylin could beat me. And my charater is nothing more then a very powerfull jedi. Now i get we are fleeing prison. But where is my option to get my behind handed to me by vaylin when she catch up to us? Arcann won his first dual with us. He has shown he can stand up to us. But vaylin? She does nothing my sage/sorceror hasnt already surpassed several levels ago.
  14. What happends if you dont romance your romance option? Will there be different quests or no more quests?
  15. Vailyn. Sure she is a psychotic murder machine. But she has been condition to obey. I am sure that with proper lies of affection she can be turned into an obeyed little playtoy. Also she was an emperoress/princess. What can i say i like playing mind games. And she is such a jucy target. Ofcourse ashara is still the best plaything in the game.
  16. Thanks for putting our thoughts to words. The reason why kneel before the dragon of zakuul worked was because of the my mind, my rules cliché. I think the best way to fix this mess it: 1: have bioware send everyone a mail appoligizing and laying blame at eagames feet. Even when bioware was the one who made the mistake. Eagames is hated anyway and they can probley get away with alot of mistake by blaming eagames. 2: have swtor split up into 3 parts. Story part: Basicly an instance mode where you do the class stories. This would be the single player part people can play the story without the mmo part getting in the way. Kofta part: Alter version of kofta: Make it a story about rebels of zakuul fighting to claim the throne of zakuul. You can even make volkarion the portaganist who is trying to conquer zakuul for himself or meaby his son leading a rebelion. Whatever the case just make sure it is a fight taking far far away from the conflict between republic and empire. The MMO part: Basicly all things in swtor that arent the class story or kofta. I find that if you ignore the class story and act like your just an other jedi/sith/trooper/betrayer(spy) the quest are alot more fun. Honestly just rip out the personal story parts and make everyone just an other body in the war. I am never motivated by a threat to a nation(kingdoms rise and fall) or galaxie(bigger size same story). A threat to my family or friends or people i care about on the other hand. It is the only redeeming quality of dragon age 2. The fact your an eldar sibbling who wants to provide and protect your family. That i can relate to more then: save your worthless homeland from a vastly superior army because of reasons?
  17. All the stories are meh. Jedi consular and sith inqisitor are the only once's i could finesh without dieing of boredom. Bioware seem to have forgoten how to proper pace a story. This is pretty much the only reason jedi consular and sith inqisitor's story are beating the other stories by miles. You atleast feel a jedi/sith. Havoc squad: republic fineshed defecter's. You dont even get a chance to get attach to them before they betray you. Smuggler: i still can find a reason to care about him. Jedi knight: chosen to save the galaxie. Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz. Honestly saving the world/galaxie/multiverse is overdone. Bounty hunter: Only good thing mako. The rest your just a low life tug with no reason to accauly care. This is the running theme with most classes. You are never given a reason to care about anything.
  18. Disclaimer: I am not sure where to post this. Feel free to move as needed. Request: I want to play through the entire campaign with a group of 4. One of eatch class. (trooper, smuggler,knight,consular) (bounty hunter, agent, warrior, inqisitor) I am looking for people who are able and willing to play every weekend Central Europe Timezone. Discord is optional. If interested please let me know and we can work out the details.
  19. Sith inqisitor>Jedi consular>>>>>>>>>>>>>>everything else. Lightsided jedi sage is basicly jesus christ. Powerfull, humble, always thinking of others first and compleetly devoted to the force. The very guy everyone wants as friend but nobody wants to be. A sith sorceror is a rise to power story(my favorite type of story) He is also ******* crazy and gets alot more interesting choice's. A few reasons why: Zash: She is a nice sith lord who behave's very motherly. And like a mother the first time she was pissed of it starteled me. You know she is sith and is going to betray you(it is the way of the sith) i didnt want to kill her but the way of the sith doesnt allow for friendship. She is a very good example of how cunning and devious the sith can be. I was on constant alert looking for when she was going to betray me. Unlike most sith lords who simply scream: i am a douchbag. And unlike the jedi consular she accauly stays around for most of the game being your master. Best romantic interesst. Confession: i love mind break and the inqisitors love interest is just that. She holds on to her believes she is a jedi but worships the ground you walk on by the time you are done. Unlike other love interest who keep some self esteem. Multiple personalities. I found that the inqisitor gets the large's selection of options on how to respont. I could pick being navive, ******* insane, cunning, helpfull, ruthless, etc. Most classes you are a soldier, a jedi, a bounty hunter. Sith inqisitor was one thing most classes arent. A person. They only thing i dont like about the sith inqisitor is the fact i cant betray the empire and join the jedi. I get it having a mass murdering force ghost devouring jedi is a no go. But still i dont like the empire and my inqisitors has plenty of reason to look for better living condition that a place of constant betrayel and backstabbing.
  20. I like to hear other people opions on this. This thread will contain alot of spoilers. So going through the storyline of the eternal throne i find myself asking: What the hell happend to our charaters. When did we when from smart, manipulative, capeable warriors to volkurians plaything. So lets some up the story in a few words: A bigger badder perfect empire kicks both sith empire and republic behinds. Had an "invsinicble fleet" and a single ships build a few thousent years ago can solo it. The emperor body surf's into us after getting killed(stop avoiding you punishment) His idiot son and daughter take the throne. And despite the fact most players i know can solo arcann and vylan effortlessly we keep getting cutsence incomptence. They are suppose to be stronger then us but we are never shown why. Sure they took down a few planets. We call that thuseday. And we useally dont have fleets to help us. And then there is valkorian. Plot emperor is getting on my nerf. You arent strong enought..... dude i am a force ghost devouring sith lord, let me eat you already. My point is that the story is basicly: lazy storyteller 101. The bad guy is a one dimention(abusive childhood 2.0) Volkorian aka the plot emperor can pretty much do whatever he pleases. The enemy is vastly stronger then you despite your side slaughter them wherever you find them. Swtor had such portential. You could have written hunderd of years worth of storyline just with the republic vs empire. Betrayel, backstabbing, politic's, friends, hard fought victories. Instead we get a bland commander with a bland story that isnt even remotely comptently written. Could they atleast show the eternal empire to be more then cannon fodder with overpowered villians? You know for all his flaws atleast viteality had some redeeming factor. Volkorian is just plot device at this point and i hate but thou must.
  21. please stop turning this into a religion threat befor eagames closes the topic: This is a topic about star wars driods inside the star wars universe. The closes thing in star wars to god/allah/allmighty divine is the force. So please dont bring real life into star wars. Focus purly on the driods being able to develop sentinance and/or earn the same right as other sentinant being's acording too the rules of star wars not real life.
  22. Good to see this topic is discussed instead of turning into a flame war. My views: Everything that has the ability to make a choice has free will and there for is equile. How they make that choice doesnt really mather. Some humans make very canculated move's others lissen to there desire's. The main difference between a machine and a person is the ability to make a choice. Example: if a door is programed to close at 9:00 it will simple close. Like wise a person can close a door. The difference is the door in question CANT stay open because it is programed to close. A person can chooice to keep the door open even when order to close them. (sorry i dont know the exact words but it came down too) To quote mass effect 3 evi: I am programed to keep this ship running effecent is the eqivial to the humans surivial need. Like wise when i learn something benefitial to my programming recieve it as a possetive impute: Thus i call it fun for short. All in all free will for me is the difference between a person and a machine. As for star wars driods. <points at deretive 7: this is why we memory wipe driods. To dangerous to allow.
  23. China still exist today. Star wars survive's on sheer numbers. Like 40k humanity survive because they outbreed there enemies. Both are stagenet in culture.
  24. Please tell me your kidding. No you shoudnt be offended. Just as i shoudnt be offended that people think: Dutch people are drug addicting who loving hippies with big mouth and little brains(i dont even disagree with them) Tropic 4 quete: All countries say bad things about other countries and there all right.
  25. Humans.......We dominate the galaxie do i really need to say more?
