SWTOR Combat Styles FAQ
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 15 มิ.ย. 2024
- Combat Styles are a new way of being able to choose how you fight with your character in combat in Star Wars: The Old Republic, introduced in the 7.0 Legacy of the Sith expansion.
Before the expansion, you were limited to two Advanced Classes depending on which Class you picked - for example, if you chose the Jedi Knight as your Class, you could only choose to fight as a Guardian or Sentinel as your Advanced Class. Combat Styles are shaking up these restrictions by separating your story from the way you fight in-game, for example, in the expansion you can now play a Jedi Knight as a Shadow with a double-bladed lightsaber, or even as a Sorcerer, and use Force Lightning, all while playing the Jedi Knight origin story. Force users will be restricted to Force-using combat styles, previously known as Advanced Classes, and Tech users are restricted to tech-using Combat Styles.
🔗 Written guide: swtorista.com/articles/expans...
There’s also an additional restriction when it comes to dark-side and light-side Combat Styles when it comes to Jedi and Sith - when creating a character, you won’t be able to pick up dark-side combat style as a Jedi unless you have also unlocked the Dark V achievement though your legacy, and you’ll need the Light V achievement if you want to choose a light-side combat style for your Sith character. Tech users are able to choose from all eight Combat Styles right away - for example, you can easily play as a Trooper Sniper from level 1! You will have all the combat abilities of your chosen Combat Style - for example, if you choose to play a Sith Inquisitor but choose the Juggernaut Combat Style, you wont’ have any Force Lightning when you go into combat, even if you use it in cutscenes in the story.

I love how she gave Clear and precise answers and went into Depth with each one instead of just Yes or no.
Can’t wait to see 200 lightning sorc’s on Tython lol
Yeah, I'll be one of them, not gonna lie.
@@Briansgate oh I’ll definitely be one as well. Too tempting to resist.
They should make that for Force Users was a little Different, originally you would be locked for only The Chosen Light or Dark Side with Jedi or Sith, after Chapter 3 where was supose to Unlock that, if your Character was High Enough in light or Dark Side Then It would Unlock the oposite Side for them, If not, like a Jedi who remained Light Side until Chapter 3, then you would be able to choose only Light Side Combat Styles, but if you Chosen Dark Side until that point, then you would have a Second Combat style as a Dark Side User, but remained with your original Light Side, since you were a Jedi, The Same for Sith, that Way Both would be able to Have Both sides but not so much immersion Breaking, since your Character would only use the opposite Força Power after having his Progression, and being "Corrupted/Cleansed" and now can Choose The other way
Like Star Killer, begun like a Sith, then you can make him become a Jedi until The End, but he Still uses The Dark Side Powers...
They Could make that If You are a Sith with High Light Side your Lightinings would be more Blue, and if you are more Dark Side they become more Purple, showing that you know The Dark Side Power but Have light Side in you, since The Force dont know The Difference in Dark or Light, it only manifest It self
But all I really wanted was to be able to use a Inquisitor, using Double Blade Staff Lightsaber but using Sorcerer Lightining Skills...
That would make me feel more like a Sorcerer, using a Staff, That would be Awesome
I’m going with a Sniper/Smuggler combo. I want the stealth and pistol of the smuggler, but I love the long range capabilities of the Sniper. Plus, I can skip unwanted mobs
exaclty what i'm going to do
That would be Sniper-Scoundrel.
@@DragonxFlutter yes, thank you
You won't get both at the same time. These aren't abilities that are shared, its a loadout.
@@alexanderperez5347 yeah but switching is pretty easy so it shouldn't be an issue
"Can I be a pistol-wielding Jedi" pew pew. ROFL!!! Love the added excitement and sound effects. :)
When I first heard about this, I thought it'd be something ridiculous like smugglers with light sabers or some shit.
Thankfully not and it'll make more sense and also be reasonable selection, always wanted a sniper bounty hunter ever since I saw that one cutscene in the main story. Now once combat slyles comes tomorrow, I can finally be that dream build I always wanted and make a main bounty hunter. Instead of just my sith marauder being the only main I like.
Yh i also find it really cool with the alignment with the force. It makes a lot more sense than a jedi just starting instantly as dark side. You can tell they actually put thought and care into this and didn't want to make it stupid.
@@chalk1415 Thank goodness for that, I'm glad they worked it out the plans first.
Yeah instead it's jedi legitimately on the imperial fleet along with troopers and vise versa takes away from what the game used to be and actually was.
i agree with you but i would have no problem with them being able to use a Virbosword or techstaff and i know of some jedi in the lore that did use blasters
@@maxrander0101 That's kind of what I thought it would end up being. Honestly kind of wish we had a LS or Vibrosword and pistol class. It's something i've wanted since beta. :/ game's been out for a long time and we haven't gotten any new classes.
Being able to have two specs is actually great for extra content. You could effectively be a Tank, DPS and Healer on one toon
Hopefully this increases the number of tanks and healers, but I'm not holding my breath. :p
@@djmeowth I have multiple tanks, DPS and Healers in my cadre. I'm not super excited about the ability to do all of that on one character.
@@jimhansen5395 Okay?
Everyone is going to roll a stealth character now so I don't see tanks and healers increasing that much lol
@@Cookiesrfood saw bones and medic have heals. Have stealth. And js/sa have a stealth.
Awesome to see you gathered together a lot of the questions that have been bugging me, and thank you!!
cheers!! :)
I'm probably gonna use the vanilla still, combat styles sounded cool when announced but they aren't anything I thought they would be.
I want to play the game, not have to worry about min/maxing combat styles to enjoy the story.
I'm sure some people will feel differently because they can't have their "dark" Jedi use Force lightning, 6 lightsabers, and a Spewie on everyone. 😆
Your show is perfect! Thank you for getting things straight. Keep it coming👍
I really hope they'll solve the issue to change combat style on existing characters later down the line.
@Sonic Mobian One idea I had for roleplay would be, on my inquisitor to have one double bladed style with the retribution exposed double lightsaber, and the 2nd could be a marauder style with 2 retribution exposed single blade lightsabers.
So basically connecting/disconnecting "the same" lightsaber
So far it doesn't even work on new characters, the change combat style quest just bugs out for my new characters, doesn't let me leave the instance the quest takes place in, and I have to delete the character, because it becomes unsalvageable
@@magatmilan8925 Aouch
Thank you so much for this. I've played this since it's launch and every once in awhile I'll take a few months off and have to figure out all the new changes. This just saved me so much time since this time coming back I had no clue what was going on. This is one of the cooler changes they have done to expand on that RP side and that I've missed since SWG.
cheers and welcome back!
Thank you for the break down, super helpful!!
Every character I make will have at least one of their combat styles be one of the appropriate stealth ones just for the ability to sneak pass enemies when I don't feel like fighting (which is becoming more often as of late). More often than not I just want to get to the actual story mission areas and not fight through hordes of enemies just to get there.
I've been waiting for this
video of yours >3
I think this seperation was planned to bring new combat styles in the future because Story Classes would be an obstacle.
For sure
Thanks for this breakdown! My light-aligned Jugg has embraced the light, and I'm loving it!
Hi, can i ask you if my juggernaut reaches light V can he switch to Guardian ?
Great as always!
Thanks, swtorista. I've been wondering about this since the expansion was announced.
Very informative thank you!
Solid video as usual. Thanks 👍🏾
Sad times, if we has been able to make a duel wielding sith Assassin i would have come back to the game for a bit. To me honestly i dont see the big deal about it all. Glad lots of people are excited about. As a founder when it first came out i dont think SWtor ever got the credit it deserved.
Same here man, I've mained a sith assassin since launch, I would love to be a sith assassin with duel wield light sabers, not sure why its not a thing. for this reason I dont really care about the new combat styles
Yeah I thought force user and tech users would at least be able to use all of the perspective weapons. I also play as an assassin tank since I started and was excited to dual or even single wield as I tried out some dps and healing styles for the first time. Ah well, this feels like something that should have already been available as just a quality of life update in a way.
@@loganronin5383 I understand that if assassins could dual wield, they would have to change up the attack animations, but considering how old the game is, that should have been done by now. fingers crossed that i'll eventually be a stealthy assassin with 2 light sabers
Considering I enjoy the ability to sneak past enemies, I'm going to take Shadow, Assassin, Scoundrel and Operative as my go-to secondary or primary combat style on any character.
Hey, just thought about something. Using two combat styles that have the exact same weapon (for example, Gunslinger and Mercenary both having dual pistols), they'd switch up their style without having to change their weapons and wouldn't look strange like someone putting away their assault cannon only to pull out a tiny little blaster pistol.
I'm in a similar frame of mind.
A Stalker in The Old Republic? Eyy based
"like someone putting away their assault cannon only to pull out a tiny little blaster pistol."
Looks at literally any cutscene
Combine a stealth character with a strong AE (balance sage, etc) and you will be a daily/heroic killing machine!
Once again you have taken the extremely complicated and made it understandable for the normal person. Thanks again for your effort to make excellent videos in a timely manner. You're a class act! :)
That subscription needed option to use a second style is a horrible idea.
Devs need to get paid too you know.
Huh. Now I feel bad for misdirecting my friend about telling her she can be a merc with an assault cannon
I decided keep my Jedi Knight with Guardian Defence as my primary combat style but I went with Sage Seer as my secondary combat style, that way I can maintain my tank playstyle and have some minor healing skills to give my character more of a Paladin feel
im an old player returning, i was so stoked for the changes, till i saw the achievement lockout, because i enjoyed light side choices and played mostly before the whole (select alignment = passive generation) meaning most characters are light side but my favourite combat style is sorcerer so now i have to commit to hours and hours of grind to play the update i was previously excited for.
edit: to play the way i was excited for* i havent completed 3 of the light side stories because i disliked the combat styles, so i was excited to get them done without having to deal with the light side classes
Why did people EVER thought they'll get an ability to mix & match skills/use other weapons? I thought even back when it was first announced it was pretty clear, you're just switching classes, that's it, nothing extra.
It’s the only misconception I thought was very clear from the beginning you can switch between styles not mixing/matching abilities , I agree ☝️
Honestly they should add mixing/matching abilities or special abilites for certain combat class combos. Other games have done this type of thing and its really fun and adds more unique playstyles. The problem is now is that everyone is going to roll a stealth class now
@@Cookiesrfood not all games work with it. We COULD cut the amount of disciplines & abilities, thus making it easier to balance & then start giving people ability to mix & match, but it's gonna be a nightmare.
Then Combat Styles is pointless, just grab a alt.
@@fenixmaker They are good, if you want to play another class without leveling said class OR if you hate VA (I lot of people hate Male Jedi Consular, so they gonna make Jedi Knight Shadows).
I’ve been playing SWTOR since 2013. I actually reminisce about how amazing I found it. What an amazing experience.
Genuinely this new crap should've stayed on the pts server indefinitely
Darth Shideous can finally be a Lightning Sorcerer/Fury Marauder!
Hi SWTORISTA. Happy Valentine’s Day to you!
I was wondering how do you unlock the force legacy for the force users so that you can use whatever force powers you want on you force character? I hope I got this question correct that it makes sense. Thank you
Programmers: We ripped the "classes" out of the plot lines. It broke a ton of things but we can fix some of it by next year. Pretty sure the UI is perma-borked, but we managed to get dual specs mostly working. Maybe. We hope.
Marketing and Advertising: Combine the new combat styles with any class (story) you want to experience! BOLD new user interface! Choose an alternate combat style for all your characters! (Joe, edit this before release with actual relevant details)
Accounting: We need more revenue for other projects, gate everything you can behind a subscription model and don't even think about touching the cash cow. Ahem sorry, cartel market. No we can't hire more people.
Players: IM'MA GONNA BE A JEDISORCERERNINJADRAGON WITH DUAL PISTOLSABERCANNONS! GONNA BE SO LIT!
Feedback and Customer Service: What in the name of.....no no, calm down. Remember your training, just delete it all, as usual.
Joe: Best career change ever.✌
This made me laugh thanks.
One strange note... they really didn't pump the cartel market this expansion, very few new items were sold! Poor accounting.
I am living the dream as a Shadow Knight. Shadow was my fav class because of stealth, but the Knight story is the most enjoyable for me pub side. So lets goooo baby!!
My only issue thus far is class specific quest rewards, like the Sith Warblade for the Warrior, not adapting to your chosen combat style (say if you picked Assassin you don't get a double-warblade), and how cutscenes with weapon animations will react depending on what you have equipped at the time.
It will nice to play the smuggler and agent storyline again with a combat style I like to actually play. Shield tech smuggler and bodyguard agent will be a lot of fun to play as at least for me.
I came back as a Free to play character and I was not able to use Combat styles until I subscribed. I hope you get to keep them if the sub runs out.
if your sub runs out you get stuck with the one you used last :)
Swtorista ur the best for real, you just answered my main question lol!
cheers!!! tons of questions about this feature
Thanks SWTORISTA😎✊🎶🎵You Rock 👍
That last clip as the video ended made me feel like i was in a TARDIS with the doors open
Thank you for your video swtorista.Please explain more about switching combat styles ingame.Iam a warrior with assasin and second sorcerer.
feel like its a huge missed opportunity to not allow cross skills from different classes. doesn't have to be anything we want, could just be specific ones ya know? kinda like ff14 back in the day. feelssadman :(
Hi I have a question, sorry if its been already answered. Say I star a jedi knight with light side guardian+sage combat styles, and I want him to fall to the dark side during the story content. Will I be able to switch to the mirror styles (jugg+sorc) when I get to dark V or something?
I saw the video where you were previewing the next galactic season in the test server. Does that new season begin at launch?
i've always loved the light side sith warrior play through, now i can actually go full light side
Same for me but in reverse. Dark Jedi Knight with Sith Warrior abilities.
Overall this sounds pretty great, I just don’t understand the purpose of making you exit phase to swap classes (and specs?), IMO it defeats the purpose of it, it’s just as fast to pull up a legacy bay, throw gear in, and swap to another toon
At first I couldn't even change unless in a Cantina! Then I realized in the Legacy panel- you can get quick respec. Still can't do it in a phase, but you can do it elsewhere
Probably because everyone would just switch to a stealth class and run by the entire phase to the boss then switch back to their main class. This was a bad idea from the start. No reason to have a second class. No reason.
I have a question about two combat styles. For example, I have two combat styles, Sorcerer and Shadow. After completing the heroics will I receive rewards (crates with gear) for style which was chosen at the end of heroic or I can choose the crate for sorcerer or shadow?
I didn't see my question and I haven't been able to find it, so here goes: does your combat style restrict the type of armor you're able to wear?
Example: My Powertech Bounty Hunter wears heavy armor. If I switch her combat style to Scoundrel, am I now only capable of wearing medium armor until I switch back?
I think so yes. Unless you wear adaptive armor then you have nothing to worry about.
Ooooh that's so cool!
I understand why they limit force styles to force characters, but a jedi Knight who is also a scoundrel would be awesome.
It would be very Luke Skywalker, or even like the Kenobi show.
hey swtorista what sub class would fit better a Mandalorian bountyhunter with a amban rifle? the vanguard style or sniper? i want to do damage mostly and I don't like the imperial agent fighting style, way too much healing and it doesn't feel like a Mandalorian sadly. any recommendation that fits better a Mandalorian bounty hunter?
I wanted two sabers so I went with Sentinel. I now hoped that I chose Sage but I improvised by having Guardian (my main class) be a tank and be DPS so best of both worlds.
One of the first things I'm going to do is make my Powertech a ComMando
id love to be able to switch lightsaber types depending on my mood. Wanna singleblade as a shadow or sentinel? Fine wanna use a double blade as a sage go for it. It would fit the make it your own aim theyre going for.
wait so a if i made a new character and don't have dark/light 5 i can't immediately choose the opposite force combat style, but when this new character reach dark/light 1 they can flip it for free?
Clan Odekk is going to start this expansion off with a BANG! Sarle Shan Server let's go!
So, if you’ve finished ANY 3rd chapter, you can get a second class for any toon, or is it only for a specific character that has finished the 3rd chapter? Basically, if I’ve finished the 3rd chapter on my Bounty Hunter, I’ll be able to create an operative with a second class? Or only the Bounty Hunter that I used?
Never mind, answered my question
Okay so i've completed the sith inquisitor chaper 3 does that mean I can add second combat styles to my already existing alts ? example my lv 27 vanguard trooper or do I need to restart from lv 1.
Is the download going to be available before it launches like WoW does?
It is still a little disappointing we can't change mid-combat. I would have liked for my assassin to switch to single blade and back during fights. lol I would even use the matching hits to pretend you're just turning it on/off.
New player here. Made my first character yesterday.
Don't the story classes have their own abilities? I started playing as a Scoundrel Smuggler, but also want to try Tactics Vanguard as my combat style. Wouldn't I be able to use some of the Smuggler abilities not tied to the advanced classes *in addition* to the Vanguard stuff?
Or is it just that the only thing the choice of story class changes is the story you play through?
I dunno, I sort of got the impression when this got first announced that you could mix your base class abilities in with advanced class abilities from an entirely different class, creating your character's unique play style? *Basically* like a hybrid class?
No mixing. No hybrid. Sorry!
I knew this was garbage. 4:28 Thank you for the precise answers. and good video.
The only variation I would pick would be the ability to use a double bladed light saber on my knight. I like those a lot.
Lightnin, pffft. Fear my pebbles!
If I add sorcerer class to my sage, would the storm be showing imperial sign on the floor or republic, considering my alignment? 🤔
Question about flipping existing characters that wasn't covered in the video:
Will I be able to flip my first combat style (I have the character at opposite alignment) even if I'm not subscribed? Or is flipping also a subscriber perk only?
I got to flip on char with opposite alignment, like on my ds jedi knight and ls juggernaut but yeah I am a sub.
@@eltacothemagnificent1029 yeah I found out apparently I can't since I'm only preferred so the mission doesn't show up to me yet
Hopefully I will get the option to flip once I do sub tho
And hey thanks for the response
This is a really cool feature, but the thing I'm most stoked about is not needing to make two of each class so that I can play every advanced class. Now I can just make a single Jedi Knight and have both the Jedi Guardian and the Jedi Sentinel advanced classes on one character. So you now only need 8 characters total to play every class in the game, which you were going to have to do anyways if you wanted to get Legendary.
So let me get this straight: as a bounty hunter I can switch to a commando style with an assault cannon? Or operative with a sniper rifle? On top of that will you need a correct armor set to accompany you every time you switch? Juggernaut Heavy Armor going to a sorc spec would remove the armor on your character right?
Most likely, just use adaptive armor
Now that you can pick your story separate from you class (aka before if you wanted to play a Sage, you HAD to do the consular story) I'm curious what the least/most picked stories are
Love to know that too! We keep giggling over Imperial Agent Commando
My brain went on vacation, so help me clarify the combat styles and light/dark alignment. I have a light side leaning Sorc, currently capped. What, if anything will happen and/or will I need to do upon logging in after the Expansion goes live
So, if I have Dark V and Light V achievements unlocked and have an EXISTING character that is aligned with their faction (e.g. Jedi Consular Shadow that is light side), but also hasn't finished chapter 3, can I grind out some dark side points to flip to dark side alignment and then flip to the opposite combat style (assassin) once I finish chapter 3?
I did not get any option when I logged in because I was light side aligned, but I would like to switch to the assassin!
Question: what is the name of the music that plays while picking the 2nd combat style?
okay, my only thing when it comes to the tech combat styles, Is it really worth it to do for example a sniper/gunslinger, or vanguard/powertech when those combat styles do the exact same thing, just with slightly different animations? It's like Bloodsport and Peacemaker being on the suicide squad, why do I need 2? I understand the cosmetic desire but from a gameplay standpoint it doesn't make a whole lotta sense, this plagues my mind when I try to pick second combat styles while still wanting to create a good aesthetic for my chars, for example I am happy with my trooper with Merc/Vanguard even though I just effectively changed the weapon and animations of the Commando, my point is maybe the devs should make some additions and/or changes to how the combat styles behave to make them feel more unique in their utility.
It's completely understandable force using combat styles aka advanced classed can only use force using but I don't think it's too game braking to have access to your base class abilities.
Also @Swtorista I've been playing the game now and then and have a high level Sith Assassin but I'm struggling to understand how the end game works?
Hey solid! Endgame just changed a few days ago so everyone is figuring it out right now ..
So hyped
So this was awesome and answered most questions very in-depth. Something I'm left confused about is the gear itself. I'm going to use a non-personal example to make my point more clearly: If I'm playing a Commando now, but I switch to Sniper or the other Operative "combat styles" then can he still wear his Commando Armor/gear for aesthetics with the proper Operative weapon equipped (which the weapon part was answered excellently) like the Sniper Rifle. OR will he be forced to wear the Operative looking gear instead?
My actual example is actually more subtle as I'm wanting to make my Bounty Hunter keep his Mando looking armor but wield a rifle instead of pistols and obviously I get two choices for that, either Commando to keep his fighting style similar or Operative if I want to go that route. But in either case, even Commando, I'm not wanting to wear the Clone Trooper looking gear, I prefer my Mandalorian stuff.
Thank you for all your answers and making these videos!
cosmetically, for looks, you can wear whatever you want!
except for weapons
@@Swtorista awesome, thank you!!!
Seems good :)
So basically as I can tell. From in a city/cantina or whatever, we can change our class to the secondary one we picked and that's really all there is to it. Not nearly as exciting as I had pictured it would be. Thought we would actually get to mix abilities from both.
Sounds like the ideal build is a Juggernaut and Sorcerer. So you can both Tank and Heal depending on the situation. That's pretty dope
Sorc & Assassin - then you can tank, heal and stealth. Operative and PT is probably the best overall.
My main is jugg but I don't like sorc healing so assassin for the stealth I the way I'm going
I’ve had lots of ability buttons messed up by loadout glitches. Luckily I have screenshots saved. But it’s so irritating when I have to redo the entire thing all over again.
I think there were some super bugs the first two days. I THINK the big ones are fixed now. See loadouts vid coming in 20 mins!
TBH, I don´t see much more than these 2 options to be useful:
Being able to play a "Rep" class on "Empire" side (which is probably the main selling point :) )
And being able to switch from (for example) cqc-tank to range dd or healer without logging to another character... (might be useful in some group instances)
I don´t see myself switching between, let´s say, Jugger and Guardian alot if you can do that only out of combat anyway... Edit: 14:00 okay, strike option 2 then...
so it´s nice fluff for RP and that´s it then...
Will be there a token (like Arifacte Equipment) for the second combat Style? I would like to have this, since I'm no permanent Subciber Player.
Think it will be nice to add stealth or healing or AOE to any character. The rest of this seem a bit pointless but then I one toons of most of the class. Some I don't like to play maybe this will fix that... maybe not.
Was a little bummed when I learned you cant switch until you finish the 3rd chapter storyline wanted to change my jedi knights style to sage but sadly he was only 24, just rerolled picked up sage style on knight from the get go and plan on taking shadow when I reach the end of chapter 3 :D
I would love to be able to use Sorc abilities but using a Double Blade Staff LightSaber :( or even 2 one Hand light Sabers in each Hand to Roleplay as Galen.... :(
What’s the armor set at 0:27 the all white one. Would love to know thanks!
finally, I can now play as Imperial Trooper. Or bully Darth Baras the Wise and shoot lightnings at the same time.
Say I create a Trooper Origin with the Sniper Combat Style. Trooper armor is all heavy, but Sniper wears medium, so does that restrict me to Smuggler sets? Does armor take on the appearance of Trooper equivalents?
Most sets are now called "adaptive" and can be worn by anyone :)
@@Swtorista Sweet thanks.
So i have a Lvl 75 Jedi Guardian but she hasn’t achieved the Light V Achievement will I still be able to switch to a another one?
I just wanted a powertech with 2 guns... or a mercenary with a flametrhower u-u
For opposite faction and alignment characters @ 9:35, I just logged in on my LS V Sith Warrior and I was not given an option to change to a Republic combat style.
Pretty sure you can only choose a style from the opposite faction upon character creation
They should make that for Force Users was a little Different, originally you would be locked for only The Chosen Light or Dark Side with Jedi or Sith, after Chapter 3 where was supose to Unlock that, if your Character was High Enough in light or Dark Side Then It would Unlock the oposite Side for them, If not, like a Jedi who remained Light Side until Chapter 3, then you would be able to choose only Light Side Combat Styles, but if you Chosen Dark Side until that point, then you would have a Second Combat style as a Dark Side User, but remained with your original Light Side, since you were a Jedi, The Same for Sith, that Way Both would be able to Have Both sides but not so much immersion Breaking, since your Character would only use the opposite Força Power after having his Progression, and being "Corrupted/Cleansed" and now can Choose The other way
Like Star Killer, begun like a Sith, then you can make him become a Jedi until The End, but he Still uses The Dark Side Powers...
They Could make that If You are a Sith with High Light Side your Lightinings would be more Blue, and if you are more Dark Side they become more Purple, showing that you know The Dark Side Power but Have light Side in you, since The Force dont know The Difference in Dark or Light, it only manifest It self
PS:
But all I really wanted was to be able to use a Inquisitor, using Double Blade Staff Lightsaber but using Sorcerer Lightining Skills...
That would make me feel more like a Sorcerer, using a Staff, That would be Awesome
EDIT: OK! ... After I post this I tried a few more times and now it does it properly.. Must've just been me messing it up somehow >.>' ... Nevermind this then! :D
Didn't wanna remove the initial message.
@Swtorista --> I just tried making a new toon --> swapping between the two combat styles doesn't seem to remember the Ability Location on Ability Bar.
Hope it gets fixed // is supposed to work! :-p gonna be a hassle to rearrange all the abilities every time you wanna swap.
its funkyyyyyyyy lol
So, if we have Dark/Light V unlocked we will be unable to see the cinematics to change our character from dark to ligth or viceversa...Quite sad...
So, if a make a sith assassin (double bladed lightsaber), can I select (in the second combat style) a class with a single bladed saber (and use this lightsaber)? The central point is, I have an sith assassin but I prefer to play with a single lightsaber intead of the dual bladed, this is possible with this new feature?
No, if you play as an assassin, you must use a double-saber.
My main class are JK guardian/SW juggernaut but i also play JC shadow/SI assassin because they give different tastes like voice actor and background story but i hate it defense skill a lot especially dual lightsaber now i will make they sentinel/marauder
How can I select my discipline with the new update? Pls help
How do voices work with the classes? are they based on the origin story that you are playing?
Voices are tied to the origin story, as are the solo stories you'll be playing. This is only a combat gameplay change.
Hey, if I have a Sith Inquisitor Hatred, can I also have sorcerer lightning?
not gonna lie i'm nervous and excited to see these changes.
Wait... it only saves one outfit per character...? So I will have to remake all of them manually and buy everything back - I deleted many items because of the lack of space?
