Ezstreak Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 I am enjoying the game. Yes its got its issues but it has the making of something great. The first guy i made (empire and yes i know a lot of people did) is a sith assasin. I just hit 10 to pick the assassin subclass. I find the storyline pretty awesome. Run into a few people now and then and quest and then do my own thing. I cant wait to get into pvp here in a bit. What did everyone else end up picking for their first character?

Astron_ Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 Sith Juggernaut. First and only character, I don't do alts. Level 38 now and want to finsih my class-story. But the mundane side-quests kills my lust for playing, so he's parked in a cantina now. Been there for days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haasth Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 Does beta count? In the beta I started with a Smuggler. Was hugely disappointed with Act 1 so come release (Or early access I should say) I started a Trooper (Commando) which I much preferred in story. Then halfway through I started missing the melee, rogue like gameplay (Plus healing, I love healing but they both have that) so rerolled Operative and Scoundrel more or less simultaneously. Had major issues getting Scoundrel through Act 1 (Simply because I think it's the worst thing BioWare has written - talk about dragging on pointless moments.. geez) but Act 2 luckily was looking better. Operative I still much prefer theme/story wise but I can only stand playing Empire for so long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alexbrah Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 Sith Marauder. I'll probably level more since the story lines are so cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shazzyrm Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 Sith Inquisitor but i've since changed it to a Jedi sage because I just preferred the idea of being a goody Jedi and sticking with the light side. Enjoying it immensely Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
princey Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 Made a juggernaut first. Got it to 44 so far. Don't see the issue with tanking and holding aggro with that one. Made a powertech next, only to 17 so far with that one. Easy mode tanking. Made a tank assassin after that, up to 16. If there's any tank that's underpowered (at least at lower levels) it's the assassin. Far too squishy to take a beating from multiple elites. Damage reduction on that character is at least 15% less than my juggernaut at the same level, and avoidance is around the same. I like tanking.

Vesperascit Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 Technically my first character was a Sith Inquisitor during beta but my first character after launch is my Bounty Hunter. I went mercenary and am loving the class and the class quests. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forgottensun Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 A few xp away from 50 on my Assassin Tank. Also have a couple low level toon including a Marauder and Powertech. Love the game so far. Minor issues are minor imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VordakGef Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 I like the "For those who LIKE the game" caveat but I'll bet some haters post anyway. I chose Bounty Hunter mostly because they can be more or less non-affiliated and I enjoyed playing one in SWG 'til the nerfs hit. The SWTOR BH storyline is rather intriguing and I find my character flitting back and forth between light and dark depending on the situation.

HELhikari Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 (edited) Sith Inquisitor Assassin, currently at level 29. And I do love it. Played an Imperial Agent Sniper in beta and fully intend to roll one again, want to finish the class story. Will also be rolling some Republic character at some point too.

Zintiel Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 Started with Sith Juggernaut which was fun but the mechanics seemed a bit too arms warriorish and rage generation still seems like such a lame mechanic for a class to have. Went to Republic Trooper which is still quite fun. Out of curiousity I tried Bounty Hunter as well, which seems to be a better fixed, animated, responsive, less beta version of Trooper. Still haven't tried a caster yet, or a healer for that matter. I like being a tank. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marxo Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 lvl 50 sith jugg. have a lvl 10 IA i love the jugg for both pvp and pve. have yet to see the agro issue with them. i belive its more l2p (hate to say it) then anything cause its not spame one aoe it takes effort like tanking in other games use to. plus i find him extremly useful in pvp which i love that aspect that i can be a tank and be useful finaly not some liablity were im better off respecing dps otherwise im wasting time. i comend biowere there for sure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zachajariah Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 So many imperials My first char is a Jedi shadow. I started leveling my rogue in WoW right before I unsubbed for swtor and enjoyed the playstyle. After I get her to 50 I'll level my sage because I prefer healing long term. The knight seems fun as well but I might level him empire side that way I can enjoy both sides. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seffrid Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 Rolled a Jedi Consular initally, and got him to 11, then wanted to see the Empire side and rolled a Sith Juggernaut who's now 18 and played dark, followed by a Sith Inquisitor who's 10 and played light. There are a couple of other lowbies who haven't really been developed. Still haven't got a preference so far as a main is concerned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghaiana Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 Jedi Consular. I just started a bounty hunter today, because they get a Jawa as companion and I totally fell in love with the Jawa's on Tatooine. They are so utterly cute. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ezstreak Posted January 8, 2012 Author Share Posted January 8, 2012 Good to hear many people rolling sith inquisitor. I heard that those classes were pretty under powered. I made it for the sake of not trying to be like everyone else. And i mean the assassin part. I did hear Sorc is pretty hardcore. I am enjoying it and will probably roll a BH powertech later on. And yea im sure a few haters will post in this thread. Im prepared Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UltimateKrucible Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 (edited) Jedi Consular/Shadow. Have to say the story, while engaging, is a bit ..... meh so far. But there have been some excellent moments that more than make up for what is a bit of a weak central quest. Seeing an older Bastilla Shan turn up in holocron form was worth the entry fee alone! Planning to roll a consular/sage soon, so pretty happy all the same. Edited January 8, 2012 by UltimateKrucible Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
