    Do we get to choose a "Darth" name?

    in New Player Help

    Posted

    The Sith Inquisitor is the only one that gets a "Darth ___" name.

     

    If they are DS, they become Darth Nox. Neutral is Darth Occulus. LS is Darth Imperius.

     

    Whichever name they give you in the cutscenes doesn't matter. You get the "Darth" title which, when equipped, just puts Darth in front of your name (ex. Darth Tom)

     

    The Sith Warrior gets the Darth title, but doesn't actually get a name in the cutscenes.

     

    They just become the Emperor's Wrath.

     

    Unofficial "What class should I play?" Thread

    Hi,

     

    Having spent years on games like this focusing on playing the Tank (Currently have one Jedi Guardian)

     

    I'm Getting really bored of this, and really need a change. Any Ideas?

    Was thinking of Healer possibly, although smuggler looks interesting.

     

    Any suggestions would be appreciated,

     

    Thanks!

     

    Well, you're in luck. You could roll Smuggler and then pick Scoundrel as your Advanced Class. Scoundrels are excellent healers...plus Smugglers get a wookie companion!

    First off I wanna thank you for making this thread.

     

    I'm stuck trying to decide what my alt should be. I play a powertech (tank spec) and have absolutely loved it. So I want my alt to also be an imperial tank, so that leaves assassin and jugg. I understand they may not have the range of the pt but I'm positive I wanna play one of these two classes. Which one though?

     

    Story and companions are fairly important for me, dps isn't a make or breaker but it probably would be nice to have and I'm a pvp ADDICT for the record. Any suggestions or advice would be great guys! Thanks!

     

    Also if you have any experiences with these two classes and have anything to say about what you really love or hate about them then please speak up :D

    In terms of story, the Inquisitor's is absolutely fantastic, with a cast of amazing companions.

    The Sith Warrior's story is also fun, but the companions I found dull. Vette's funny and easily the best one. You can shock her if you're evil which is also fun. However, if you are evil, Jaesa is literally insane. Almost to the point where it's creepy/annoying. Broonmark is dull. Malavai Quin...I won't to throw him out the airlock (especially later in the story). Pierce is okay.

     

    The Assassin is great in PvP. Stealth, tanking, and even some great dps make them a challenge.

    Juggernauts also do great dps and take a lot of hits, but lack stealth.

     

    Personally, I prefer the Sith Assassin. But its up to you :)

    I remember like a year ago, Bioware said it was possible to be enemies with your companions. That they'd insult you, try to stop you, even leave permanently (either by leaving or through death).

     

    So much for that. Now if you have low affection, they just don't talk to you.

    After seeing hundreds of these threads...

     

    Want to know what class you should you play next? Come on in and ask. Tell us what roles you tend to be, what type of story you like, whatever! The community will offer their guidance!

     

    Ex.

    I want a Imperial class for tanking. I'd prefer a Sith class, but if the Powertech tanks the best, then I'll choose it. Which class!?

    Well the Assassin tanks decent enough and does a ton of damage if specced right, plus they have stealth. Powertechs are ranged classes and also tank pretty well too. The Juggernaut is probably the best tank out of the three. However, the Sith Inquisitor has a much better story and the Bounty Hunter has much better companions. I recommend Juggernaut for tanking, but its up to you!

    Future Ideas for SWTOR

    A Dark Jedi class for the Empire and a Light Sith class for the Republic (Revan anyone?).

    No. Not only would this throw the morality system out the window, it breaks canon. The duty of the Jedi, both dark and light, is to serve the Republic. Helping the Sith would make him a Sith. Revan became a dark Jedi when he fought the Mandalorians, but became Sith when he attacked the Republic.

    Same with the light Sith. Sith fight for the Empire. My SI is light. He just wants to make the Empire a better place.

     

    Other than that, the other ideas seem pretty good.

    Though this should have been in the Suggestions Box...

    Can someone explain how Legacy gear works?

    in New Player Help

    Posted

    Every character that completes Chapter 1 gets a Mainhand Inheritance Kit (lvl 14 that you can give to an alt).

    You can get other pieces, randomly through critting on Crafting Missiosn - UT, Slicing, Diplomacy, etc

    You can buy them with Daily Commendations

    You can buy the legacy orange gear for lots and lots of credits.

     

    Inheritance Set - will take a toon from about 14-20ish before having to upgrade

    Birthright Set - starts early 30's I think?

     

    Thanks, but how do you use the kits?

    End game canon for your character?

    My LS Sorcerer: Tries to make the Empire better, but after seeing that it's a lost cause, uses his resources that came with his position to get powerful Sith and Jedi artifacts to gain immortality and immense power). Has two kids with Ashara (JK and BH). He tells Ashara to take the force-sensitive to Tython and tells Andronikos to raise his other son (not force-sensitive). An enemy of the Sorcerer learns of his plans, and sends an agent to kill him. The Sorcerer defeats the agent and, instead of killing him, persuades him to kill his enemy. The Sorcerer trains Xalek as his apprentice. He continues to gather artifacts and increase his own power, until he decides he needs to help the Empire not be so...evil. He sets off to enact his plan, saying goodbye to his friends.

     

    Khem: Continues to guard his master (the Sorcerer) and dish out the pain when necessary. The Sorcerer eventually helps Khem with his...ghost problem. Khem eventually gets over Tulak Hord and focuses entirely on his new master, crushing all who oppose him. Many, many years later, his master passed away (despite him having extended his life with the artifacts). Khem personally buried his master in a tomb and guarded it for years to come.

     

    Andronikos: Raises his friend's son to become a very powerful Bounty Hunter who would go on to win the Great Hunt. Andronikos eventually retires and spends most of his time relaxing at his beach home on Naboo.

     

    Ashara: Takes her son to the Jedi Order. While there, the Jedi Order offers to take her back in, despite what she has done. She refuses...for now. She goes back to her husband and helps him. Eventually, he leaves and tells her to go back to the Jedi. Ashara goes back to the Jedi, and teaches her son (though his son doesn't know Ashara is his mom). She eventually passes and is buried with her husband.

     

    Talos: Helps the Sorcerer gather artifacts. After he leaves, Talos works with the Agent who tried to kill his friend.

     

    Xalek: Learns from the Sorcerer, but eventually challenges him (Xalek thought he was ready to defeat his master). Xalek was strong, but was defeated. Xalek, devastated, goes to Yavin 4 and trains in the forests, alone, for quite some time. He eventually returns, only to learn his master has left. Xalek searches for many years for his master. Decades later, Xalek finds his master, who is now old. The two duel once more, and Xalek wins. Xalek, however, spares his master out of respect. Soon after, the Sorcerer passes, proud of his apprentice's mercy.
