DarkLordDiablos Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 When the option of choosing a second Combat Style aka a second class option was offered to me I assumed that I would have access to both sets of powers at the same time i.e. be to play as a Sith Warrior and choose Inquisitor as my second choice and be able to use their powers in conjunction with the warriors in the same way you can when you activate Heroic Moment which allows a non-Force User to use the abilities of both the Jedi and Sith. Yet upon doing just that then checking the HUD I noticed that I needed to actually switch my powers from one to the other which defeats the whole point of choosing a section option to begin with. Considering the ability to play through the Inquisitor story while using the powers of the Warrior is really fun since your Lightsaber actually has a purpose, not being able to Force Jump into a bunch of enemies and then hitting them with a ground smash and following that up with a AOE lightning blast is a opportunity I feel has been completely missed. And yes I know LOS hasn't officially been released yet, but if what I mentioned isn't allowed, my point of it being a mission opportunity will be justified, especially the same can be said for the Non-Force User powers such as being able to play as a Vanguard Shield Specialist while having access to the Commando Gunnery powers. And while we are on the subject of the Vanguard, I think the option of being able to play as the afore mentioned Shield Specialist but equip a Blaster Cannon rather than a Rifle should be a option. Considering the Cannon should have been the main weapon for the Vanguard from day one due to a Vanguard being able to Tank and the Commando being able to be a Healer, giving the "Field Medic" a Cannon is stupid as they should be, particularly in Flashpoints and Operations, mobile while the Shield Specialist should be standing in one place dealing out the damage and keeping the enemy focus on them while the Command keeps them healed in the same way their Companion would. Also the Commando originally had the option to either equip a Rifle or a Cannon while the Vanguard could only have the Rifle since the Cannon wasn't originally received until you chose that Advanced Class. The one good thing that has come from this new setup is that you can now fully fore-fill your Boba Fett/Din Djarin fantasties and play as a Bounty Hunter and use a Rifle considering the most recent BH armour bundle comes with a rifle that you currently can't use making the purchase pointless until the release of Legacy. To be honest they should have saved the release of that armour until they released Legacy of the Sith as it may have got them more bundle sales than it currently has. Whether or not the right people will view this and make the changes I suggested before the official release is anyone's guess. Though I'm not going to hold my breath as I fear I'll pass out long before it happens but we can but hope they see that what I'm saying has merit considering it has the chance of totally shaking things up in the game aswell as the possibility of bringing people back to the game who are still on the fence despite what is already known about the next update.

Pricia Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 Yeah that's not going to happen. They'd have to balance every single combination, imagine the nightmare... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkLordDiablos Posted January 4, 2022 Author Share Posted January 4, 2022 It would be a nightmare yes, but its one that would be worth it if they were willing to put in the effort which from your assumption, they aren't hence why it feels half-hearted rather than game changing.
