Well if you think about it the ability to switch should affect your class it should affect your Faction. I mean a Jedi is with Republic but a Dark Jedi doesn't really follow the order's way and should be able to join the empire if you want. As shown in the jedi's story, a sith can join the republic for their own reasons (not going to tell who or why) I think it would of been more interesting if after you were done with your story, you got a choice out of with side you rather join.

wow this post is stupid.... argueing about something that has facts Sidious was number 1# it is G-Cannon this game is like C-Cannon which means it will always lose to the movies end of story. Also the Jedi only beats the emperor after he is very weaken, and yes this Emperor has been in the planning since Revan so the Emperor wasn't a swtor project. "We know nothing of what transpired when Revan and Malak met the Sith Emperor. One thing is certain: when they returned, they did so on behalf of their new dark Master." so whether the dude buys it or not, cannon is cannon and nothing anyone whines about, can change that.

me and a friend had been debating about this, thanks

JK has the same thing, depending what you even do on Tython (starting planet) can determine what happens on the last planet.

I like all there of those characters (James Bond depends on actor), but using them as a reference in a mmo does not make me want to play IA actually.

point, personally their all good, which is the best is a matter of what type of story people like I think, I plan to role all eventually.

This seems to of turn from who has the best storyline to trying to justify the smuggler's storyline? So far I have seen JK and flat it was great, grammer may suck but that the short and sweet version, personally I have to do imp agent yet. I do know the Counsular was kinda boring comparing and the romance character came way too late

Durge can be knock out, when Grevious cut off his head, plus Jango has a lot of weapons, durge is good but Jango is smarter and that is probably what will win the fight.

actually both times Obi-wan gets beat by Dooku, it is by the force and not by lightsaber otherwise Obi-wan would be missing a limb. It really does come down to form but even then Anakin got beat in the first encounter and that was with two lightsabers.

if we are talking swordsmanship only, a lot of the lists bring in force ability I mean for one Darth Sidious 1v1 pretty much got wreck by Mace Windu, he is skilled with the force more then sabers staying with the main canon characters 1. Luke- He is basically the top afterwards though in all honesty unless they all duel really no one knows who is better. 2. Mace Windu- He is known as the best, and it is reference in the movies of his skills 3. Obi-Wan- He knew many of the forms and was very skillful, outside of being a pilot.... (also he did train with Mace Windu from time to time, since they were friends) 4. Anakin- As much as he annoys the crap out of me, he was very good and the people he beat proved that. The only reason I won't consider him better then Obi-wan, Obi-wan is smarter and minds his surroundings. 5. Some one else pick 5 Yes they are all Jedi's but for the most part it is impossible to know who was truly better then who with light sabers unless they all dueled each other. also some one had said there are 6 forms when in fact there are 7 1-Shii-Cho - swtor 2-Makashi - not in 3-Soresu - swtor 4-Ataru - swtor 5-Shien/ Djem So - swtor 6-Niman - not in 7-Juyo - swtor Vaapad (something develop of Mace Windu proving how skilled he was) better animations to each styles would be nice in the game

me and a jedi consular friend two man because he wanted to see the end, first time we got owned then again didn't know what was coming. Second time we ignore the shadow things and smash the emperor and it worked for us. I really don't suggest that though unless you have the damage to do it. Yea it was an insane fight though, considering I have to do a second time on my alt and this time I won't be a guardian. After this though, about day or so he went to finish his final mission, we smash him in about 2 second and he died when I pulled a second mob with force push (not my brightest idea). Other then that it was stupid easy and kinda eh, kinda of a let down. I rather they not nerf the JK final fight, after all it is the Emperor anything else would seem like a let down to be honest.

Yea crits do nothing to the crystals which at the end of day is the only thing I really care about with artifice. I wish criting a crystal would do something though like a new schematic for a crystal or something like that.

that's a lot of orange

Yea I am in act three, just start, and she hasn't talked to me since act 1 and she is at 10k but o well. I will finish it out and see, the only reason I am not too worry it is because I am making like three jedi knights (don't ask). I have dark side points but I don't think any involved her.

even though the plans drop in beta from the Alderan boss... pretty sure they haven't change that unless you have proof otherwise.
