AN Ewok dies in the OT. AN Ewok. And people were supposed to be upset about it. Jussayin',

Someone... Named themselves... Obi-WAN!?

Not necessarily. They still have free wills, and in a rare case, they can be born with a tumor on their brain known as a "conscience"

It's a conspiracy! They are trying to dust over Revan! Retcons ftw.

R2-D2, on the way to Dagobah with Luke: Luke: *Daydreaming about Leia, who just kissed him on Hoth* 1. Dude, Leia's your SISTER! [50 LS Points] 2. We're entering Dagobah's atmosphere 3. Tell Luke you have some holovids of Leia getting dressed [150 DS Points] R2 falls into the swamp 1. Tell Luke you're all right and ask for help [50 LS Points] 2. Yell at Luke and tell him to get you out [50 DS Points] 3. Pretend that something's attacking you, and then fly out of the swamp at high speeds. [150 DS Points] That's all I've got.

Yes but the most on coruscant are civilians with an army of mere millions Let's do some math. 1 billion equals... A million about a thousand times. So one trillion would be one billion a thousand times... Militaries rise in proportion to population, hence militaries nowadays having so much more than in Victorian times. So therefore, there are far larger militaries. That's not including every single other densely populated planet in Star Wars. Not to mention 3k years later of population growth.

Darth Vader and Tarkin blew up a planet. With a population of 1 tril on Coruscant, the Republic alone must have at least a billion troopers. /thread

Pfft. Believable fictions are better known as alternate universes.

What are they telling you?

I agree...d. At the beginning, I would have liked to kill him and make the clone (assuming it was moving too) my companion in his stead. But in later convos with him, I found out that wouldn't have worked, so I will just say this is one of those, "sacrifice it for the story" moments.

Hippies > Puppy-kicking Sociopaths I don't particularly like either though. That said, Smugglers, Troopers and Bounty Hunters forever.

I think he meant he's English in that he's from England... If I were you, I'd just roll an alt on the EU RP servers and check them out, ask for what channels they use to facilitate RP and so on. You never know how deep the pool is until you dive in. (Just hope it isn't the kiddie end. )

The Empire is evil, they are racist, sexist, they conduct slavery and embrace genocide. It's fun to play as the evil guy though.

At least they acknowledged that Ilum failed and is completely revamping it. Better than what most games did with a failed system methinks.

Someone holding a gun to your head and will shoot if you don't play? Seriously, I am currently levelling a character purely on class quests, planet quests, and PvP.

I did something worse on my first JK. Got him up to 10, made him a Guardian and went to bed that day. Next day, I got on him, thinking I had made him a Sentinel. I noticed I did not have 2 Lightsabers and scrambled through my inventory and cargo hold, couldn't find it, asked in GC if anyone else lost it too. Someone inspected me and said, "You've got a generator on you. You're a Guardian." Biggest facepalm I've ever done in the game.

Guss. Seriously, I hated his guts at first, but he's proven to be my saver in boss fights and my Smuggler's bro. His take on the whole "Jedi Code" and "Falling to the Dark Side" is interesting and honestly, unique. "I always imagined Sith were sadistic, brooding monsters hiding under your bed at night. Then I saw one in combat, now I can see why the Jedi put so much emphasis on not falling to the dark side." That and the whole lightsaber thing he has is too funny, if only he could use one...

No, as I've said, this is a thread to at least be a bit constructive and at least, keep all of these, "Why do I have Broonmark/Skadge/Billy Joe Jim Bob?!?!?!" threads down, with a central thread to keep them all in. If I want, I could create a favorite companion thread, though I am sure there are plenty already. Guss is comic relief. Seriously, bring him along, and as well as decent heals for boss fights, he's funny. Smuggler: We just need to give them a reason to come out... Guss: Nope. No way. Not being bait. Not this time.

It seems that once they go to war, they get their act together pretty well. I mean, in a matter of a couple decades, the Empire managed to seize from 1/3 to 1/2 of the galaxy, pretty impressive. (Albeit, they had advantages over the Republic that should have let them destroy them, but that's not the point.) And the Rule of the Two won't happen for about 2700 years, so they've got some time methinks. It's the same reason that the Empire's citizens haven't said, "forget this, I hear Democracy is in season" and had a revolution.

As it is with most classes (at least it would seem), chapter 1 may be the best for the Smuggler. Chapter two is outright bland, you don't have that enemy to hunt down and hate, just a criminal you "kinda" knew about but never really associated with. Chapter 3 kind of makes up for it though, I will admit my jaw dropped at a certain point in the story.

"What's there to stop the Imperial Military from abandoning the Sith?" An hierarchy of super-powerful force users tends to be a decent deterrent for not rebelling.

Wait... "I flirted with Aric Jorgan, but I never played a female character..." Someone found a cheat code for SGR's!

Well how could he have been made better instead of just outright replacing him? The point of this thread was to give constructive ideas (That Bioware will hopefully take note of, probably not though), not rant about their companions.

So in your opinion, who do you think is the most pointless/overall worst companion in the game? I have not made more than one class to 50, but I have to saw I fail to see the point in Bowdaar for the Smuggler. His only real redeeming quality, is that he's a wookiee. Seriously, he's, 1. Melodramatic: (I die! Go on without me!) 2. He was SWTOR's equivalent to a WWE wrestler (His fights with Drooga were staged) 3. He's no better at tanking than Corso, and no better at DPS than Akaavi. 4. He sits in the KITCHEN all day surrounded by ALCOHOL, pretty sure Wookiees are not supposed to drink... If I had the choice, I would have made him, 1. Less of a "wannabe noble savage" and 2. Made him act more independent, I mean, the guy was a slave until I saved his butt, once he was freed, don't you think that he might I dunno... Take advantage of that? Sure, the guy's useful to have on the ship though... So no one steals it again while I am gone. Who is your least favorite companion? And how could they be made better?
