I'll try to keep my situation short as I'm already drawn between the Jedi Shadow (infiltration) and the Jedi Sentinel. Basically I am looking to roleplay a Jedi who fights more along the lines of agile. Now when I say agile, I mean to the tee. Nimble, quick. To be honest, the combat style of Vindican and Satele in the Return/Hope trailers instantly caught my eye. However, I am not a huge fan of the sheer amounts of Force abilities that the Shadows have, which is making me consider going Sentinel. I moreso want to capture more lightsaber combat than anything. Even still, the look/feel of Vindican's/Satele's melee fighting style is what I want. From a roleplay as well as combat standpoint, which would be better for me in this case? Sentinel, or Shadow? Thanks for the help.

I would agree in terms of say, a Sage or Consular, but they explain Shadows to be more melee oriented. Or even Satele in a sense, she seems pretty agile. Same with someone like Maul. On the other hand Sentinels/marauders seem more berserker-ish. Lke a raging brute with two lightsabers almost.

Between the Jedi Sentinel and Jedi Shadow, which type of Jedi would be most likely to show more agility during combat? Speed, jumping, flips, staying light on their feet, etc?

Sadly I haven't seen much RP Republic-side yet, but I was hoping to give the forums a try. Any active RP guilds out there? Those that focus more on PvP would be awesome, although I'm not too picky.

If the class is based off of Darth Maul, whats up with all the spells? I understand it's part of the inquisitor class, but I guess if anything I see an Agile Death Knight or something (sorry for the WoW reference). Darth Maul screams fighter. Not...hybrid caster.

I don't feel much like Darth Maul as an assassin. Yeah the double-bladed lightsaber is there, but I feel like...Thor. Charging lightning into lightsabers, what is BWs definition of an assassin? Because as it stands it doesnt scream Darth Maul.

Care to explain why you're hooked on the story? I'm stuck between SW and SI (as an assassin) at this point.

Ok, how does the Inquisitor storyline fall into place with a character being an assassin? Since Assassins are melee, are there times when you see some of that awesome Jedi/Sith combat as you do with the Sith Warrior, or is it just a matter of spending all your time hunting relics and knocking higher Sith out of their position for your own sake?

Can someone explain what these abilities look like? Do they look the same, or do they look different depending on the class? Thanks.

Now as an inquisitor, without spoiling anything, are there any points in time where you, say, have any story-related parts where youre fighting against the republic, namely any Jedi? Or is it just a bunch of plotting your own rise to power that doesnt include the republic in any way?

I'm having a hard time trying to decide which route to go, and the deciding factor is the story. Can anyone provide some insight on how each classes story is without any major spoilers? My main thing is if I go inquisitor, I will go assassin. But the Inquisitor storyline (havent made it past level 10) seems like it's Tomb Raider-ish. So in terms of the story, how is the inquisitor story as well as the warrior? Thanks!

I find it hilarious that people are crying about a community Q&A. Meaning they are answering questions from the PLAYERS. Those of you still finding a way to cry, please go outside and look at some sunshine or something. Just get offline ASAP and do something else with your time. Anyway, great job on the Q&A this week BW. Can't wait for the patch.

(Sith Inquisitor) My first choice was to go human, but the more I look at it, all I see around me are humans of various classes. I'd see the oddball Twi'lek every once in a while, but I was actually thinking on giving Rattataki a try. Is there some perk to being a human that I missed? Mainly because thats all I see in terms of other players (with purebloods/zabraks coming in a strong second place).

For humans they're yellow, and in terms of lore they're supposed to be yellow. Darth Maul, Sidious, Anakin, all were yellow. So I guess I'm trying to figure out where red came from.

Is there an actual lore reason why various races have different eye colors when Sith corruption kicks in? I was always under the impression that when attuned to the Dark Side one's eyes turn yellow. However with Rattataki and Twi'lek their eyes glow red in-game. Any reasons behind that?

Im pretty sure the race shouldnt matter when it comes to Sith Corruption. I've always been under the impression that the persons eyes become yellow. Not red or orange.

That sucks and it wont help with most people picking humans. Red eyes vs yellow, I'd pick a human just to feel like an actual sith.

Why does their eyes become red? I couldve swore the dark side causes eyes to become a yellow-ish color.

Thanks.

Hey, I was wondering if anyone could show a screenshot of any level of dark-side corruption on a Rattataki? I'm curious to see what it looks like (kinda too lazy to level one up just to see). Thanks!

Does this type of utility work for those who are DPS Juggernauts, or is this position best left up to Immortals only? Ya know, in the same sense that a DPS Merc may off-heal or whatever. Can a DPS Jugg have what it takes to effectively guard or are they wasting their time?

Good point, sweet. Now in terms of Marauder vs Jugg, do you ever go soresu to help guard, say a ball carrier even though you're vengeance? Also how to being able to guard/taunt(jugg) go up against being able to do nothing but damage(mara) in a pvp setting?

I havent watched that, unfortunately. In the clone wars did she have two sabers as her own, that she always walked around with, or did she just pick up and use someone else's lightsabers in dual-wielding? Example, I know Kit Fitso dual wields at one point, but for the most part he walks around with one. He just used one of Grievouses.
