I like the Jedi Strategist Robes and the Acklay. The gunslinger droid companion looks kind of cool as well.
But I really like the HK Pistols.
-
There's only one class that uses them though. But either way a lot of the Assualt Cannons look stupid anyways. I used a Bowcaster on my commando for the longest time back in vanilla until they changed it so lots of the abilities require Assualt canons now I think....
Especially carrying around Assualt canons on female troopers, they look way too bulky for them.

Or an asteroid stronghold, the center of the asteroid is dug out, pretty good hideout.

I just want more small/ medium sized strongholds. I honestly find Yavin way too big... I am never going to go across that bridge very often and for nothing important.
The only two strongholds I have 100% are Coruscant and Dromund Kaas, not because they're the cheapest but I just like the layout and was able to do everything I wanted with that amount of space. I have Tatooine unlocked and fully expanded but I took all my decorations from there and put them into the other two.
I'd like a Alderaan mountainside estate.

Yeah, and it's been there ever since the Clone Wars.
Maul is the most interesting and well developed Sith in the entire franchise after Darth Vader.
He was taken as an infant by Palpatine and tortured and trained as a sith. His childhood was stolen.
He was trained to be Palpatine's successor with all the potential on the world, then it's taken away by Kenobi in TPM by one instant of arrogance and over confidence.
He spends 10 years living on a junk planet mostly mad.
He comes back, finds out he has a brother, creates a criminal short lived criminal empire that was so dangerous Palpatine himself had to stop it.
His brother is murdered, and then he finds out he has a mother, who is promptly killed and taken away from him too.
Maul the ultimate Darkside example - it takes everything from you.
Maul is arguably more tragic than Darth Vader, and he certainly has as much pathos and depth as Vader.
I'm excited to see him back now.
Because it was obvious in that short clip (and then reading the interview confirms it), Maul is being sincere but he's also manipulating Ezra.
If Maul survives into Season 3, it's going to lot of fun.
I feel almost certain that Maul will survive. Under the circumstances of next weeks two part finale Maul isn't really the apparentice. Sidious isn't present so it just doesn't make sense to assume he will die. Ahsoka however likely will and Ezra, another apprentice will likely slip away from Kanan and be with Maul.
I was expecting Maul to be a bit more deceptive but he's being really direct, however yes you can tell he's manipulating Ezra at the same time. So I guess he's just taking an approach that I didn't expect him to, not trying to fool him really but playing at his sympathies from Ezra's own loss (his parents).
-
I read an article earlier this season that Ahsoka was supposed to become like the Gandalf in this show. The only time she did any Gandalfing was when she handed those two Inquisitors a beatdown. Other than that they really haven't done a whole lot with her which is why I hope there is more.
Well I wonder if the riots will start next week. The riot police are probably too busy monitoring the "Who is Negan gonna kill in TWD" situation than this.
Well people didn't really riot when Han died, and he has a much larger fan base over Ahsoka.

Maul revealed.
Maul is so freaking cool. I hope he sticks around. He has so much potential based on how much he's been through and what he's lost - everything.
Wow there's more of an emotional connection with Maul and all his loss in that one clip than there has been for Ahsoka in the entire show.
-
I agree, much of the episode was hinting towards an other kind of fight for both Ezra and Kanaan. Ezra is showing the same inpatient, "can't you see how great I am, make me a Master already", or in this case Jedi knight attitude we saw all thru the PTs. kanaan is obviously struggling with his own uncertainty of how good he's been training Ezra, and Ezra showing signs of hybris in his newly found powers. What's ominous is the way Ezra handles his limitations.
Also another interesting thing is "attachment" it is a great part of both Ezra and Kanaans relation to each other and the rest of the group . . . I think "Balance in the Force" will have an whole new meaning in Star Wars without Lucas at the helm.
as for Ahsoka's fate, well, I'm intrigued, and curious, how will they handle it? Can't help but think about RotJ, Luke senses that there's still "Good/Light" in his father. How can there be Light still? Will Luke's sense of his father's capability for redemption somehow be mirrored in the way they handle the Anakin/Vader vs Ahsoka shootout? I'm all about speculation but I really want to experience the upcoming episode as 'Fresh' as possible . . .
I feel it may be quite a bit different for Ahsoka. She knew Anakin as a Jedi and she is probably shocked to realize what he has become, she may even blame herself for that by leaving the order and pushing Anakin closer to the dark side then he already was.
I imagine Vader may try and turn her, but unlike with Luke they wouldn't really have a good chance of overthrowing the Emperor together where as Luke and Vader could have.

Level 65s killing level 26s on Tatooine is why those servers went to crap now.... Even with level sync those lowbies don't stand a chance from being ganked. You deserve to be stuck on a low pop server as you're one of the people who were part of the problem .
-
Somehow, on the Rebels Facebook page on the Rebels Recon many are speculating Revan might make an appearance, even if it is just a small one. Maybe, would be interesting. Then again it is just a thought.
This season? I guess it's possible if they're going to Malachor, perhaps he is in the Sith Holocron that Ezra holds?
-
I think the emphasis was more on the fact that they are ancient and unfamiliar to Ezra in comparison to what he's before experienced, nor do I think it coincidental that Malachor is struck from the same cloth.
It's foreshadowing Ezra coming into contact with something new and dangerous, and emphasising his limitations.I think its intended to be reminiscent of a vulture, or just an omen in general for the fate that's about to befall them.
Yeah that's what I was thinking, just trying to foreshadow that something pretty bad is going to happen soon
-
I told you the official reason as stated by the creators. There is no "perhaps".
Watch Rebels Recon and they flat out tell you the reason. You're speculating over something the creators answered.
It's kind of a completely stupid answer though since it contradicts the creatures in season 1.
-
Oh she is SO dead... This is probably the last conversation Rex has with Ahsoka and it goes back to the first conversation they ever had "experience outranks everything"
-
That would be an interesting reunion.
I'm skeptical though that Ezra will stick around with Maul for long though. Kids TV show and all.
If time is spent it'll probably be largely off screen via time skip or something.
I suspect there might be a bit of a time skip between season 2 and 3.
Either way something big/ bad is going to happen next week. They set it up nicely now.
I bet Ezra will massacre the inquisitors, or at least the seventh sister. There was that one force choke clip awhile back with Maul standing by Ezra
-
I think it is just one factor that makes it harder.
Those bugs were likely part of a hive mind of some kind, which probably would make any kind of force control harder.
Or perhaps the creatures just couldn't be controlled by a Jedi, a Sith perhaps might have been able to. Like how Ezra called upon the dark side to unleash the massive one in season 1
-
What if Maul and Ezra join up for a portion of season 3 and Ezra is like "Hey, I know a contact that can help us"... Ends up brining Maul to meet Hondo. Talk about awkward after season 5 of TCW.
-
Rebels Recon said it's because not all creatures can be controlled and manipulated with the Force. The spiders are bizarre and naturally aggressive, hence Ezra can't manipulate them with the force.
Similar to how certain species are immune to mind manipulation - hutts and toydarians.
The creatures from last season where also naturally aggressive where they not? It appeared they where..
-
Those spider things were OP lol. I get withstanding blaster fire, cause creatures in SW have armor that can withstand such things. But withstanding laser cannon fire from a freighter and having strong enough webbing to hold it down? Jeez.
I think they webbed the landing gear down, I'd say it could be possible. But resisting the guns doesn't make sense
-
Next week though we got a 1 hour episode! Woo!
I still say Ahsoka won't die, Ezra almost turns to the darkside but something happens last minute. Maul dies though.
I think Maul lives and Ahsoka dies. Maul has some greater part to play and Yoda sees it. Also Maul is not really the apparentice at all in this scenario unless Sidious himself shows up.
Okay new theory though what if "Twilight of the Apprentice " means that Ezra is no longer Kanans apparentice and perhaps turns to Maul as his new master.
-
It was an interesting episode, the lightsabers have a training mode I guess which makes sense.
I'm not sure I understood the ending though, what was with the dark side music and the creatures? Is it because Ezra is shifting towards the dark side that he can no longer make a peaceful connection with the environment? Ahsoka and perhaps Kanan seem to know something that they never revealed in the episode.
However Ezra made a connection through the Dark side with that beast at the old clone base last season.
-
Get ready.
"Our long awaited meeting has come at last."
I really hope Vader doesn't get into some awkward conversation of him justifying his actions or something. I never really liked Ahsoka to begin with so if Vsder just flat outs murder her I'd be quite happy with that result.
-
Eh I wouldn't say aligned, but appears to have some relationship with the Empire.
All the same really, which still makes me suspect Ketsu got a higher offer from the Empire and is double crossing the Rebels.
-
Skadge should live...
We must unleash Skadges anger on the false chancellor Saresh, have him rip her to pieces
-
Is the Black Sun still allied with the Empire in the new canon??
Just had an idea but I think Ketsu actually sold the Rebels out on that first base location, not sure how the Empire would have known to send a large fleet to an isolated planet otherwise.
Which class-gender combo has the best voice acting?
in Combat Styles

I think the Male Warrior is excellent. Both Agent voices are good as well. Consular is trash in both genders.
I like the female Sith inquisitor but she also sounds like she's 14...
The consular voice actor (Nolan North) should have voiced the Smuggler with the Nathan Drake voice
even though the Smuggler voice is good already.
