The Eclipse is what i hate about so many of the EU writers. The Eclipse is basicly the Mary Sue of Star Ships. That every second author implements his own Mary Sue doesnt make it any better... And because the Star Wars EU is full of such things, Star Trek has no chance, because they are based on "realism"

star wars has lasers and blasters. i dont know any reference if laser are lasers as we know them. but the blasters are plasma, shaped and put to speed by magnetfields. shields might dissipiate those magnet fields. but star wars also knows of torpedos, missiles, bombs and boarding pots. so they wouldn ot be weaponless.

This. But then for the fun of it: Imperials have Interdictors (in the movies area that is) -> no warping, and slowed down for the klingons The Imperial ships are larger by an insane quantity. -> Every Star Destroyer hosts a small army of troops for boarding and invasion, and also several squadrons of bombers and fighters to deal with fast ships and bomb run small to medium targets. and in comparisson to imperial ships, the klingons have no capital ships. In fact only the Borg Supercubes would pose any fair match in size, numbers and firepower to ISDs. And there is only ONE in The First Contact and it needs a whole fleet to take just that one out.

there are in the trailer. but since they are ninjas, the only thing you see of them are the dead bodys of their enemys.

Ty! sadly the blue one seems not to be modable, so il guess i have to hope to find one ho can do the purp. this is how my agent looks right now. close up http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/36/screenshot2012012521492.jpg/ full pic, with weapon http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/692/screenshot2012012521532g.jpg/

IN PvE it doesnt matter that much and your healer wont argue with you if you help him now and then. In PvP i tend to use it before i go into the fray or if im forced to stay at range because of aoe cluster**** or a superior melee. also the same talents reduces the casting time of kolto injection

your dream talent exists. it needs 2 points in the healing tree. also i never had any ta problems, if you dont intent to spam cull. open up with hidden strike and shiv gives you 2 ta. if you need a further one, get it with kolto injection or shiv again. should be on cd by the time you need it again. I am using this atm: http://db.darthhater.com/skill_calc/imperial_agent/operative/#::f17efefefe2f8ef4e2fe3fe3fe7f3: with the ta generation fom hiddenstrike, shiv, kolo injection and killing i rarley have ta problems. the decreased cd of stim and adrenaline probe, in combination with the instant energy gain solves all major energy troubles i might have. crit poison ticks giving back 2 energy helps a bit too.

Anyone knows if you can get somewhere armourpieces that look like the ones the Chiss on Hoth wear? That would be totally awesome. And win you the internetz.

i guess ebcause the title spoils that you can become the hand ofjadus ?

it makes sense, but you need to open up your minds. lethality is a true hybrid, that can - unlike too WoWs hybrids - be played as an actual hybrid and work! In PVP i have no "golden rotation" you are way to flexible and you rarely have 1v1 encounters. Just be sure to use all of your skills. If u dont want to get into melee, use kolto injection for ta. When you face a melee kite him - you have two slows, a stun with an integrated speed boost, vanisch and escape vs snares, and if everything goes wrong stealth cloack. when fighting a ranged, in most cases its better to go into melee range, because there you can deal more dmg and use distraction etc. Your melee skills still deal a lot dmg Your optimum combat range is between melee and mid range But dont mind to say at long range, darting, throwing nades and healing if the melee becomes an aoe cluster****. You have to stay mobile, or at least more mobile then the others. You have the tools for it.

i dont like her. too psycho. and i dont like mindless anarcho/punks to begin with. she has too much of jack from mass effect 2 and i dint like her either. was so glad when i got vector only to notice he is a crazy bugman. the other companions are quite fine.

For me it makes no sense either, that the Empire is Speciest. It contradricts the Sith Code. Power > all. No matter what species you are from. Imho this was only implemented to make them look more evil.

i just wanted to add in that i concider it quite a bad move, to make a FP where your supposed to kill the stars of that era. would we be on to kill han solo and skywalker if this would be new republic era?

i am going to see it. I dislike this 3D shizzles, but you only got to see Star Wars on the big screen that much. As for the prequels.. i dont think they are that bad. And wenn Natalie Portman has her screentime i just pretend i cant hear her and enjoy her looks.

Dude, the whole topic is a spoiler. Also note if you choose your solution, your circumvent the bugged boss fight, but it drastically alters the outcome of chapter 1 and how the story goes on.

well yeah, i admit it makes kind of sense in a pretty hot cold war setting.

They were. Lucas gives enough freedom to choose otherwise. And there are many authors that did. Even the ones that wrote for that game. Drew Karpshyn for example. Does Palpatine or any Sith from the movies acts like a complete sociopathic moron ? It was BW's choiche to interpret sith that way. And i honstley dont like it. But they did so in kotor before, so i didnt expect much more. Thing is imho BW isnt that bad. There are many NPC siths that are pretty reasonable and definitley see the sense in LS acts. Beside the Taris thingy, there are many LS actions you get praise for doing, even by Sith superiors. I mostly blame the DS/LS system, wich encourages acting complety moronic to get the DS5 to get the benefits of it. That way it becomes a thing to just farm and imho undermines the whole point why swtor is a game worth playing: The story and the roleplaying in a Star Wars universe. If I wouldnt want that I would go play WoW or Rift, because honestly the mechanics of WoW are far superior to that in SWToR

Yeah, i wonder why BW made Sith that way. I mean their lead writer is the guy who wrote Darth Bane. But then: The Dark Brotherhood is formed because the Sith realized how flawedtheir system is and that they will never beat the Jedi if they keep infighting. Darth Bane then notices that the Brotherhood isnt the Sith Way either, because its too Jedi like. So he introduces the Rule of Two to solve the problems of infighting and being too Jedi like. The Sith in the ToR area are just complete moronic, socopathic, humicidal, pychotic maniacs and you wonder how they manage to run an empire. I am on Taris now, and i have problems to motivate me RP wise to play on as Imperial, and concidering rerolling Republic. Your are on Taris, and the whole point of is, is to demolish it because you could. "Taris was destroyed by sith centuries ago, and now the Republic tries to rebuild it. We will demolish it again and keep it that way!" So why? There is a line where they at least TRY to give reason: Taris rebuild would become a symbol of republic fortitude and a major military stagign point. This somewho made it kind of reasonable, but still... As for beeing an imperial Agent at that time:

Why would a Chiss work for the Empire? Well Thrawn did it, because he thought only the Empire had the ressources and the order (as opposed by the chaos of a republic) to fight the "the great enemy". In ToR? I think they are there for the Thrawn fan boys (like me). In game: 1.The Empire recognizes your skills and employs you in turn for money and power. 2. You are like the american or iranian guys that go all Nazi. 3. Chiss IAs are actually double agents for the Chiss.

no wait till we have the first one dual wielding double bladed light sabres. and then a species with more then two hands. afaik there even was such an abomination. dont remember its name though

oh in that case, if revan has not found a dark art of prolonging his life, his legacy would have torn itself apart by the time.

I use it almost everytime probe is on CD. Its one of your best dmg skills. hit f, probe, continue your rotation. not that hard. Also in pve vs non cannon fodder mobs, i open up with snipe and probe. but this might change, once i get hidden strike. (lvl 27 lethality here)

pvp, flashpoints, the heroics. youll get HUGE chunks of XP there.

This is because of the games have to give you something to play with. If you read the books (the good ones, anyway) you'll notice the force users dont go "wizards of destruction raining doom from above", despite the lowest special effect costs.
