JFrombaugh Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 This has probably been asked before, if so I'm sorry, but I thought I'd share what I personally felt about the final Jedi Consular companion Nadia Grell. It seems most people either love her or hate her - personally I kind of feel both ways about her. If you are a Light Side Consular she is by FAR the easiest companion to gain affection with in dialogues, and I admit that it's almost impossible not to feel sorry for her in the cutscene where her father dies. Just in general though, I kind of find her eager beaver attitude and her battle quotes annoying, and I completely agree that the romance with her as a male Consular is just so wrong, so creepy, so against everything the Consular stands for. At times I thought Nadia was on Ectasy, but then I realized she was created to be a foil to the Consular. And that is why I find her more suitable for leveling Diplomacy than as a battle companion. If Nadia had been sent to Tython for training by her father and had never met the Consular, I think she would've been deemed too dangerous and emotionally unstable to be allowed to become a Jedi. A Jedi Master can teach a Padawan how to use lightsabers and the Force, but he cannot give her self-control. Nadia's not the Cowardly Lion and the Barsenthor is not the Wizard of Oz. A shame really, since she is one of the sweetest and friendliest companions in the game... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've made a male and female of almost ever class (haven't got to the Sith yet), except Consular because there is no good female love interest. I knew from screenshots that she looked too young, and in the game, ya, she sounds and acts young. Creepy is an understatement. However, she is also the best, bar none, companion for a Sage. I don't find her annoying at all, just a bit childish but then, she is basically a sheltered teenager. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaxtes Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 Even though i never romanced her for my JC, think it is possible that there might not be that much of a difference in their ages. The consular meets her in second chapter which is what 2 years after he became a jedi knight.He can be pretty young too if the player wants it.

DomiSotto Posted October 15, 2014 Share Posted October 15, 2014 I am in the hate her category. Basically my least favorite character in SWTOR I've met so far. Just a blatant Mary Sue that whines even about having her AMAZING POWERZ. Happily put her away for good right after doing her achievements.

Ycoga Posted October 15, 2014 Share Posted October 15, 2014 She's a verry flat character. And I'm hardly interested in companions in the game anyway; they're merely stat-multipliers that were needed to complete class content when the game first came out. Nowadays they're irrelevant.

Sylvan Posted October 15, 2014 Share Posted October 15, 2014 She is very useful and easy to keep geared...but as a character she is utterly boring. If I could swap her personality with that of the smuggler healer sages get I'd be very happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chosonman Posted October 15, 2014 Share Posted October 15, 2014 I didn't pay attention to here story but she kicks butt as a dps comp to my sage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
