Was this really the optimal angle for this conversation cinematic? 😭

"You may not always follow the light. But you are good" *turns to the most evil looking MF ever*

Its honestly hilarious how Ashara's storyline plays out if youre full dark-side because her attitude and behaviour makes progressively less sense.

I imagine this is because originally you didnt get all of these quests unless you got her approval high enough which only happened if you behaved, in her presence, in a manner that aligns with her assessment of you.

But now that all companion quests are given no matter your relationship to them, it creates a lot of funny moments.

Do you also change kind of roleplay your transmog along with the story?

In order: Inquisitor grasping for power -> overwhelmed by said power with body and mind falling apart -> body restored through ancient Rakata technology but mind still fractured -> Inquisitor made whole and ready for ascension.

For some reason, over the many years i néver picked this option. God damn... Thats the most callously easy execution by your character in the game i wager.

So this Saresh remained a good figure to the people of the Republic after her death?

As a SW I don't know anything about her background, she seemed like a republic version of Darth Baras to me.

Is Khem Val really eating Forceusers or is he just consuming their essence?

I always imagined him just feeding on their soul rather than physical eating.

It would pair well with his forceimmunity. In the SI storyline we learn that the Rakata lost their connection to the force and felt so empty without it, that they were trying to rebuilt their connection with since. Maybe absorbing force-essence is the Dashade way of filling the void the force left.

Thoughts after playing WoW forever

SWtoR is by far my favourite MMO.

I enjoy WoW, but it's just too much game that seems to pride itself on having no QoL. That is great for some gamers, but for me I prefer a more casual playthrough with the option of having competitive content at end game - which I have done and enjoyed on swtor.

Things (and very small) missing from WoW that make me always come back here.

Mounting while moving
All flight paths unlocked by default
Quick travel
Personal ship to allow easy TPs to different planets
Raid group sizes

Big things

The swtor map is the most underrated thing this game has imo. It is perfectly clear, you almost never get lost, doors/entrances are highlighted that you need to use to get to your quests - I never really appreciated it until playing other mmos like gw2 and wow

The main story quest. If you want to just progress your main story, you can simply follow a single quest. This is a big draw for me, as I want to experience the different class stories without having to do all the side/planet quests on every character. In WoW there were times where I had 25+ quests; it's just too much.

Legacy. Having endgame items lock to your legacy and are transferable between your chars is excellent. I got BiS on my DPS this patch, used that character to get currency and a good set of gear for my healer and he can start gearing up his specific stat reqs.

Atmosphere. This is very subjective and may be nostalgia talking as a launch player, but starting a new character always gives me a feeling that no other game has. The fleet is simple and just a mirror on the different factions, so again, not overly complicated or long-winded just for the sake of it.

Apologies for the wall of text, but just wanted to put my thoughts down and give props to swtor for continuing to be my favourite mmo after all this time, even with competition coming out. I hope we have many many years of this left.

Returning player after a couple years.

Basically as the title describes. Left originally because of school and kept getting sucked into RP guild drama. Also with all the new content coming out I’m wondering if I should redo my subscription or stay on f2p?

Thanks :)

SWTOR Storylines Tournament: Round 1 Match 5 - The False Emperor VS KOTET: Discovery of Iokath

Vote for your favorite storyline between the two! False Emperor includes both the Ilum storyline and the two flashpoints that follow. And "Discovering Iokath" starts with Chapter 3 of KOTET where you take back the Gravestone, and ends with Chapter 5 where you escape Iokath.

Japanese flavor

The other day someone was looking for a conical helm or a Japanese style, so here is my submission

Finally got to Light Rank 5. No diplomacy, just grinding the Light Side choices. Took me to the end of Fallen Empire to do

Continuing the conversation about headcanons: what do you think of the theory that Vette lied about her age?

When I posted the discussion about the companions' headcanons, I was surprised to see that so many people thought Vette might have lied about her age.

To give a brief, spoiler-free summary for those who don't know the context: Vette has a rather tragic past and, at some point, had to rebuild her life. Basically, there comes a point where it is implied —or even made fairly obvious— that she had to change her identity more than once, either by her own choice or because someone else forced her to. It's also possible that she lied about certain aspects of her life in order to get into different places or situations.

Additionally, this could explain some things about the way she acts and how she was treated by certain members of her family and people close to her before she met us.

Now, there's something I want to clarify: this is only a theory. I think there would be some "problems" if something like this were ever made canon, especially depending on how they decided to handle it.

Anyway, what do you think about this theory? I'm also curious to know what your characters would do if this turned out to be true. I know some people roleplay with their characters, while others simply consider Vette a friend, but I admit I'm especially curious about what those who have a romantic relationship with her would do.

And just to be clear: I'm not insulting anyone or saying that this theory is true. If something like this had happened, it is very likely that no one within the story —or even in real life— would know the truth.

How Agent Chapter 3 ties into both Jedi stories

I will mark these as a spoiler just in case.

>!I believe that the Star Cabal were infiltrated by one or more Children of the Emperor. The Emperor needed death to fuel his immortality. Corellia was one of his target planets. The Star Cabal were messing with both sides in order to kill as many people as possible. They claim it is to rid the Galaxy of Jedi and Sith. But I believe the Star Cabal was corrupted by the Emperor's Children to aid in his plans.

During the Agent story, the Star Cabal often kill civillians by the hundreds or thousands. I believe it is to fuel the Emperor. Such as the Mining Colony, and Coreilla.

We learned on Belsavis that the Star Cabal started out with peace in mind. To keep the Empire and Republic separate. To stop war. Then somewhere it was changed to sow more death, I believe this is around the time the Children got into the Star Cabal

This is just my head cannon. It is interesting to think that maybe Hunter and Agent were both playing their spy games, when both of their secret Masters were different Sith!<
