Kozor Posted January 15, 2012 Share Posted January 15, 2012 Ravage looks 100x better than JK's counterpart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarthVindictus Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 (edited) Okay I have Shatter now, and I think Shatter is a great animation (actually it's the same as one of Darth Nihilus' moves in that KotOR 2 video posted above).. it's an acrobatic looking attack, jumping and doing a 360 spin while slashing diagonally downward from the right. The Good: Assault Sundering Assault Shatter Force Push Force Charge Force Choke Smash Ravage Retalliation (not fancy but a nice thrust counter attack) Savage Kick Pommel Strike Saber Throw Soresu Form Shii-Cho Form Sweeping Slash The Meh: Vicious Slash (looks more like chopping a tree with a battle axe) Force Scream (I prefer blade storm to this by a long shot, though I wish we could change the sound of Force Scream to "FUS!" from Skyrim) Disruption The Ugly: Channel Hatred (looks like he's doing an air squat to take a #2) Shien Form - doesn't look like a lightsaber form, please change, here's an example of what the stance should look like when you activate it, note both Dooku and Anakin use the Shien/Djem So opening stance in this sequence, the lightsaber held with both hands above the head to deliver powerful overhead swings: here's another example in episode III: Note how he goes back to that attack stance with the blade over his head many times before launching a swing. This lightsaber form was developed by the choreographer for Anakin (though other Jedi including Kenobi who's a Soresu master use elements of it). Anakin/Darth Vader are the poster boys for Sith Juggernaut, and also the poster boys for Form V: Shien/Djem So style. Instead we have throwing down hands like you're just getting angry, totally stupid. and finally Impale... Impale isn't a BAD animation so to say, it's just not unique (shared with Cauterize/Rupture). I'd prefer something unique and was expecting something like this: Suspending a target in the air and throwing the lightsaber through their chest, can be a 4m range limit, but it'd look cool.

bliapis Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 I found the kotor 1hand lightsaber animations much better than TOR. honestly they look very nice and very clean Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
omninull Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 Because i read, thx for remidning me that also, no matter in what stance u are, Shien, Soresu, Shii-cho. Animations dont change. Also, most chars in movies use the same styles from game, for example obi-wan uses soresu. But i dont see him perform these slowpoke moves. I'm glad the Juggernaut has heavy handed attacked, he's not an agility fighter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FuzioNdapro Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 Luke uses vicious slash on Vader during their duel on the second death star and he cuts off his hand! Thats more like Ravage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zokkor Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 Jedi Guardian animations are a lot more fluid swordsman like, and not just "I SWING LIKE I AM HOLDING A VIKING BATTLEAXE" style of the SW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
