Excise Posted January 23, 2012 Posted January 23, 2012 We picked the Jedi Sage as a class knowing it was ranged, and that thus our lightsabers (aka the coolest weapon ever) won't see a lot of action. But it still sure would be nice if we could see it used sometimes. Enter Tumult, one of our few Melee attacks that remain useful forever. Sadly, despite this great chance for Sage Lightsaber action, it's a kick. A pretty kick to be sure, but it's a wasted opportunity! Post if you agree (or disagree for that matter!) with changing Tumult to an animation that uses the lightsaber.

Post if you agree (or disagree for that matter!) with changing Tumult to an animation that uses the lightsaber. You use it every time you get shot at. Personally I like my Kung-Fu kick flip. Nothing like putting your muddy boot in someone's face to bring them down to size. Can you imagine where that boot has been? What it's stepped in?
Excise Posted January 23, 2012 Author Posted January 23, 2012 You use it every time you get shot at. Not my Sage. My Sage just keeps her lightsaber by her side as she's usually stuck in a casting animation of some sort. I agree with your point that Tumult is currently a cool animation, but I think it's the best (read: easiest) candidate to turn into a lightsaber attack.

SoonerJBD Posted January 24, 2012 Posted January 24, 2012 I agree with this suggestion. The kick is OK, but I would use it a lot more if it used a lightsaber even if it doesn't really belong in my rotation.
Dominoris Posted January 24, 2012 Posted January 24, 2012 (edited) My opinion is still the same as it was in the old thread. There are 4 Republic classes that can equip a lightsabre; 3 of those clases use it often, one is a ranged caster. I picked Sage because I weant to be a ranged caster. If you want to use a lightsabre more, please pick one of the three classes that have this option. If they change the Sage to use use his lightsabre more I will no longer have the option to be a ranged caster. Please do not change boot to the head into yet another glowbat swing.
