jbuschell Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 Shouldnt juyo form for jedi knights be vapaad instead? Juyo was generally regarded as a sith form where vapaad was a form of juyo that made windu used to negate the dark passions associated with juyo, would be a cool subtle wrinkle I would think to help differentiate the jedi knight and sith warrior Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zunayson Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 Yeah, And I feel someimes Juyo and Ataru should be switched, as in Kotor II, Juyo could perform an extra strike at some percent of power, not Ataru. This means that either Kotor is wrong or SWTOR is wrong. Wiki isn't saying anything yet.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ErikModi Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 And Juyo wasn't a Sith form. It was a highly aggressive form that the Jedi frowned on practicing often, since it had no other purpose than "kill, move on," but it wasn't a Sith form.

jbuschell Posted March 13, 2012 Author Share Posted March 13, 2012 (edited) Right but i believe somewhere in the canon one of the sith lords either sidious or dooku did call it a sith form I read that somewhere on wookiepedia perhaps under vapaad Edited March 13, 2012 by jbuschell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoJacK Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 Right but i believe somewhere in the canon one of the sith lords either sidious or dooku did call it a sith form I read that somewhere on wookiepedia perhaps under vapaad Juyo was described as the most vicious form of lightsaber combat, and was said to be filled with both fury and "malignant grace."[7] The form was given the title of the most difficult and demanding form in all of saber combat.[9] Skilled combatants with Juyo were said by Jedi Master Vrook Lamar to be able to "eviscerate a lone enemy." According to the Sith Lord Darth Traya, the form was both chaotic and erratic, with a heavy focus on offense.[3] Juyo's use was controversial among the Jedi Order, as many felt that Juyo violated the "there is no emotion, there is peace" tenet of the Jedi Code due to its requirement to fight under the guidance of controlled passion. The Sith had no such inhibition, and Darth Sidious went so far as to label it a "Sith style". Jedi battlemaster Cin Drallig listed bold, direct motions as characteristics of Juyo, qualifying them as more open and kinetic than Form V, but with a less elaborate appearance than Ataru. Drallig contrasted the tactics of Juyo as not nearly as graceful or linked as those of Ataru, instead referring to them as "seemingly unconnected staccato sequences." He also listed one of the strengths of the form as its unpredictability. The form was said to necessitate greater energy than Form V, due to a broader wielding of a user's focus and a deeper emotional link. Despite the challenges inherent in the use of the form, it could serve as a pathway to considerable power This was only Darth Sidious's point of view on the style. I feel those who are aware of wookieepedia's existence should go there first before asking questions here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
