Socialist Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 I think it would be awesome if i could have a Jedi Knight companion as a Trooper.. yeeahh Sounds a bit offlore. Perhaps in the Republic with a bit of lore bending it might budge. But totally impossible in the Empire, where Force users are of a superior social class than the 'force blind'.

Solzean Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 Actually it makes a lot of sense that some force users would need non force users to follow. We tend to make the assumption that force users are more power, which they are in a straight fight, but they could easily need to follow Bounty Hunters/Smugglers (unable to really infiltrate the underworld). Troopers could be in charge of teaching more novice Jedi about battle tactics, and havoc squad could always use a force user. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solzean Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 Hell I can imagine that many Troopers would be much better tacticians in a battle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spectreclees Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 Ensign Temple is a force user but doesn't practice the ways. She has an ability called Force Bomb or something. The Agent has one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JWagner Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 So force users will tag along w/ non-force users, so long as the force users is the head of the travel party? Hmm... So why do force users listen to other force users, when they can be just as powerful/more powerful than the leader? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheBetty Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 Ensign Temple is a force user but doesn't practice the ways. She has an ability called Force Bomb or something. The Agent has one. Correct. Temple hides her force powers, because she honestly believes she would not survive the Sith trials on Korriban. In a cutscene she does expose her force sensitivty to you by using a sort of Jedi mind trick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anatolious Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 Smugglers already have a force using companion. Guss heals me with jedi powers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBetty Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 I assume you're referring to a full force weilding companion/ apprentice like Jaesa? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LilTsar Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 classes must endeavor to be balanced, therefore no reason a non-force class couldn't get force using companions of lesser powers. first on the list: get guss tuno some force moves. force heal and whirlwind instead of electro trap spring to mind.

randalthorr Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 only acceptable if they are failed jedi/sith that cannot fully grasp the force. Full masters or lords as companions to non force users is absurd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tbh General Hesker would be an awesome companion, problem is that guy is nobodys 'companion' lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hxxr Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 I don't see why my Bounty Hunter who's a war hero of the Empire couldn't have a sith underling who's less acomplished, seeks a different style of life and has aligning agendas. More power to the blaster wielders! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure, but according to lore, I believe they have more authority than full sith lords or at least equal status. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chimunga Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 Usually when a force use has another force user companion, it's in a Master/Padawan kind of way. When you're playing a Jedi Knight, Kira is your Padawan. Same for the consular with Nadia. I haven't played the Sith Inquisitor far enough to know, but her bio says that Ashara is also padawan. I don't know about Jaesa. I would, however, really like to see some male force user companion, seeing as, as far as I know, there are none. Seems weirdly sexist to only have female Padawans. Correct me if I'm wrong. Don't Jedi usually work as commanding officers for troopers? So, that would be a weird relationship. And it would just be totally beneath a Sith to work with anyone who is not Sith. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cran Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 Perhaps Vector (Imperial Agent) can count as force-user, too, at least willpower is his primary stat, if I remember correctly. And Scourge, of course. The last companion of the Sith Inquisitor, Xalek, is also male, a Kaleesh, and the pupil of his master. Jaesa is also designed to be the pupil of the player. My Sith warrior probably gets a huge ego kick whenever she calls him "Master". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean Temple's stat is cunning but she's still a force user, albeit an operative foremost. Vector is just a bug.

mightyburd Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 I could actually quite easily see a force user following an agent or BH...just have them be an "alien." And a natural user. They're rare but they're already in game as NPCs. Empire has a quest on tattooine IIRC that has you run into force using aliens. Can you imagine an Ewok with a lightsaber and shooting lightning?

Yeah I can see something more like that than a Sith or Jedi. A Voss companion for example would've been great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blondesolid Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 I would love to see Guss transform into a sage type healer later on in his story arc (even though i know companion stories will never be touched again ) And don't feed me this bull crap about master/app/pada nonsense. There have been thousands of stories about rogue force wielders not aligned with the empire or the jedi order. And adding sith purebloods by the hundreds to the republic fleet is just the trump card needed for sticking with lore regardless, it all went out the window with that.

MimicUnleashed Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 There are possibilities of Gand Findsmen, who are already in the game. It wouldn't be a stretch to give one as a companion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
