Standart 1 Hand and Double bladed. Didnt unlocked Crossguard yet but the Counter on the Dual Wield is way to slow. Also the small Guard Bar especially on Jedi Grandmaster is a no go for me. Tested Blaster Stance a little bit but it just feel wrong.
use a stim to top off your health before you open the stim chest - when you get a new stim/stim slot it will automatically max out all your stims so it's like a free rest without resetting the mobs.
oh a game where you can rush threw without doing anything and still there are bugs to abuse liovelky . like wtf how can you not jsut trashdown this weak game? game 1 was kinda good this one just fcked it up.
I can not stress how incredibly important and useful force confusion is. In this game and in the last, getting ganged up on was a major obstacle and a very quick way to die. But with confusion, get at least one or more of those (human) characters to fight with you and make things more even. My advice is to max out that skill tree as fast as possible.
I barely used confusion because for some reason it takes me out of the flow of the fight, I know I don't have to but it feels like I have to disengage to confuse an enemy
My Tip: There is a skill that makes stim refill most of your force meter. Get it fast. It makes specially those harder fights a lot easier as you have a lot more force available to use.
Probably not new information for most players, but for me it was, so I'll make it my tip: jumping over attacks is the replacement for the (now removed) dodge roll, so many of the red unblockable attacks are best jumped over and not dodged. Dodging in general has been made more difficult and less spamable compared to the first game (the timing required is much tighter, enemies have more attacks that home in on you until the last moment before they connect making dodging to the side useless and the forced "pause" between dodges seems longer to me) and is much less useful now. Learn to jump instead.
Learn jump dodging. Once you unlock the mid air dash if you just tap jump and immediately tap dodge it will do a dodge just above the ground with practically 0 recovery time unlike the normal dodge. Takes some practice but I was much better off once I got it down.
maybe play part 1 it was decent this is jsut grabage. better ülay darksouls (obvi got baited at game 1 and it was fine seond game is jsut fckignb trash)
I literally just beat Fallen Order, and jumped into Jedi Survivor in the same day. Same combat, same controls, same gameplay/exploration. The only differences are more customization, bigger world, more abilities and stances. The story is less compelling sure but calling it trash? That is crazy lol@@WeedmanSkirr
When you arrive at Ramblers Reach there will be a rumour quest near the workbench asking you to find missing prospectors in a mine close by. You have to fight a massive rankor beast & you will receive the shatter perk upon victory. The perk breaks the enemies block & leaves them temporarily stunned 👍
@@NoSubstitute you can cheese him, jump out over the ledge and then back to the ledge. From there once he's closer you can repeatedly saber throw him to death. That's what I did.
My tips: don't bother trying to find the last missing treasure in specific zone early on, there will be an upgrade which will put the icons on the map later on for each of the treasure types which would help you find missing things. Crossguard stance at least for me became the default stance as soon as I got it, and I only switched to double-blade for groups of small enemies.
@@midnightcitizen you will eventually learn their patterns anyways and blocking parrying dodging at the right moment will be natural, at least that's how I approached it
What about when you get to an icon on the map and the treasure isn't there? Like in the saddle barn by the cantina. I have an icon right in one corner and nothing is there. It's driving me crazy.
@@benschroeder4036 For these ones better to google, but that one in particular is when you stable a mount in there and it leaves the ore in the manure after a bit. but I might be wrong.
@@voronovychda Yeah, I didn't want to Google it, but I did because my game was being a little visually glitchy last night and I wanted to make sure it wasn't technical issues. I probably wouldn't have ever boarded an animal in there otherwise.
My tip for when you’re starting out: plan on using your free skill point refresh only after you unlocked all stances. Up until that point, upgrade what you want, experiment, test things out. Then when you unlock the last stance, figure out your primary stance load, what abilities you like to use and focus on those when you refresh.
To anyone playing this, refrain from exploring until you get the "baloons" traversal. Backtracking on this game is pain so better save it for later when none of the obstacle will hinder your wanderlust.
Thanks for this video. Kinda sad to only find hate vids on the game. It plays fine for me and it really is beautiful, im 7 hours in. Just got to 2nd planet and then came in to work
The game runs like ass on ps5 performance mode. I'm on the second planet and it chugs at 20 FPS. Kinda sad to see people like you excusing the dog shit optimisation and being corporate apologists. Aside from performance the game is fun which is what most of the "hate" videos seem to be talking about.
I mean the hate is somewhat justified. If it runs 'fine' for you, then that's okay but it doesn't negate the issues with the game for most people. It doesn't run as it should on PS5 or high-end PCs from what I can see. Not sure about Series X.
@@dave011679 And, as I said to the other guy, good for you. But it doesn't negate the fact that there are widespread issues with the game that need fixing. I can see on my PS5 that it doesn't perform as it should do in performance mode and is notably worse than other new titles I've bought for PS in the past. It's the same story for countless other players.
Thank you so much! You offered awesome advice, I'm still on Koboh, so this was perfect for me! 👍 Thanks also for not spoiling anything. Honestly, it's just an excellent video!! 🌠
The First Stim Upgrade is actually already in Coruscant in the Meat Factory guarded by a Security Droid....i even leveled on the Enemy cause the Meditation point is right at there but i still missed the Chest because they look so different compared to Fallen Order....now i have to wait till i can revisit the Planet 😓
@@ariici Dude Stop telling BS. You even get a Notification after Jedha when you go to the Map in your Ship. Cal says that now Merin joined the Crew they can go back to Coruscant since she can hide the Ship. Just watch some "All Stim Location Videos" nearly all of them mention that if you miss the first Container you have to wait till your much further into the Game.
If you’re coming over from Fallen Order, check your confidence in Parrying and Reflecting blaster bolts at the door. Combat situations where you have to deal with both melee AND ranged opponents are much more frequent in this game, and if you don’t take the right approach you’re gonna find yourself getting lit up a lot. Take a cautious and patient approach to battle like a real Jedi would, rather than flying in sabers blazin
@WildRebel69 you can. I do it constantly. Duel blade and saber staff combo. Or the cross guard. Straight out with time slow and rush as much as you can before time is normal. Then it's just the pattern game. Watch them then strike. Lol easy. I absolutely love this game. You actually feel powerful at the end.
Within the first 40 seconds, you've won me over and earned my respect. Thanks for not spoiling the game while giving us quality info regarding the game. Cheers bro , yr a legend mate.
So far the blaster is my go to. It trivialized ogdo and rancor on grand master. It might just match my play style but I highly recommend giving it a shot.
I always explore whatever I can before progressing. That way I can go back and say, "oh hey I can go here now." And then I can stay into exploring. Compared to Fallen Order I was blown away with how massive Koboh is. I'm still finding areas that I didn't see were there. I am pretty perceptive and know how to read maps. Now that you mention it it does have a GOW feel to it. Just different buttons.
The levels also seem much more spread out rather than stacked on top of each other. In the first game I was always switching between map levels trying to figure out which path would actually get me where I wanted to go. Add on fast travel and constantly unlocking shortcuts to make re-exploring easier, and I'm looking forward much more to 100%-ing Survivor. Spending literal hours sometimes tracking down that one last scannable on the farthest side of Kashyyk, getting lost, and trying to get back to the ship broke my soul.
Great vid! I'm a big fan of the double-bladed lightsaber. It has great reach, and wears down enemy guard quickly. In terms of tips, mine would be to remember you can throw your lightsaber right from the start. Hold block, and then hit your force attack button (triangle/x/whatever). Does decent damage, and gives you a little range. Also, force push kills regular battle droids.
Just remember, if you use the Skill Points properly and carefully, use it for your own stances that you currently used, such as Single-bladed or Double-bladed. The reason why is of course, if using a Single-bladed, you can focused DPS, Range, Speed and you can deflect 2 blasters back to the enemy, especially against Bosses. You can also use Dual Wield, but beware, Dual Wield is a Glass Cannon, means you cannot perfectly block more than 1 Blaster bolt back, it has High Damage and Speed, but Low Range.
i recommend learning to Force Dodge glowing red attacks. just press the dodge button without a directional input. The timing is pretty easy and you gain force energy back for doing it.
I’ve played through the story 3 times now and I’m on the way to 100% the game, but for some reason I still watch these kind of videos every time I see them 😂 good video though, the only thing I would add is I’d probably focus mainly on the story for your first play through. Not only is the story really good, but that’s how you get all the upgrades you’ll need to access every area in the game. Nothing wrong with doing a little exploring, but I’d recommend doing the main story before doing all the rumors and stuff
Spot ON! Great tips. As I think was mentioned by others, there is a stim on Coruscant that is pretty easy to get. I 100% agree with all of your tips. Confusion especially. One of the other things you get to upgrade is, for lack of a better way to put it, the power level of the humanoid you can confuse. If you go straight up the tree you can confuse almost anyone below a boss. It is super effective. I also had the same problem with trying out stances. When I got gun/saber I HATED it because it was so awkward after using the double bladed lightsaber with its constant sweeping ballet of death. It just kept stabbing and stopping. It is a fun stance, but it plays VERY differently. Speaking of stances, with dual wield it is important to note that it is the only stance where you can actually interrupt an attack action to PARRY. I put that in caps because it is amazing you can interrupt animations, but it ONLY works for parry not for dodge.
I know there will be stuff that I won’t be able to access but I will explore it not only to get a feel of the layout of the planet but also so I can get for example all of the different light sabre parts and customisations for cal and bd
I personally like finding an area where I can rinse and repeat efficiently there’s groups of enemies especially near rest stops I take advantage of this and it also helps with getting timing down with stances in less than an hour you can gain roughly 8-10 skill points by doing this because one the enemies are so close and 2 you’ll gain about an 8th of a bar of xp towards your next point per rest and respawning enemies
I love the droid fort where you can fin spawn of Oggdo. The droid carrier and the hanger behind it had literal waves of enemies. Super fun challenge and a meditation point right in the middle of the area.
@@BuddyChy that’s the one I’m talking about also right above the spawn point where on platform you take out about 8 droids you can force pull the 2 guys with the hammers down to that platform and they give a 4th of a bar each of xp maybe a little more I love taking my time with these types of games cause 1 I I have to get my Jedi reflexes back because even playing on Jedi Master those enemies can be quite brutal I haven’t even left the first planet yet I’m just enjoying the game the droid conversations are a riot and I like taking my time and getting my skill points up learning those mechanics
@@kalaban2015 yeah I love that. I love that you can satisfyingly enjoy this game like that. I always listen to droid conversations. they’re hilarious. Later on, there’s two B2 droids that argue over which one has superiority based on their model number. One says it’s higher number gives him superiority but the other says the lower number means he was made first so he has superiority. The first one then says that’s not how numbers work lmao. So entertaining. I’ve also primarily stick to double blade stance and I still feel like I can master it so much more, yet there’s four other stances I’ve had little experience with and I’m already almost done with the story. I can’t wait to keep playing and do NG+ mastering different stances.
@@BuddyChy I like the double bladed stance when fighting droids and when being fired upon then I’ll swap to single blade when fighting melee because it seems to do really good damage and breaks guard quickly
@@kalaban2015 facts. Good strategy. I’ve just been using only double bladed so I can truly master its capabilities and learn how to use it effectively even in its weaknesses. That way I actually get better at using it overall rather than only using it for its strengths. I’ll probably branch out to the other styles a lot more after I beat the story but right now it’s too much fun.
I've found out that it usually pays up to have two different lightsaber stances that complement each other. Something that has more oomph (Single blade, cross-guard) to faster style combat (Double-blade, dual wield). Bosses can have different fighting phases, where switching between quick and strong can help: final boss I ran trough with first phase using dual-wield to stay on offensive, but second phase I went trough with a single saber, as I thought I'd need more defense and hitting power per swing. Also the game likes to mix between enemy mobs where you might get one mob that is relatively weak but insanely numerous melee attackers suplemented with ranged fighters, or alternatively heavy-type of enemies (Droids, Purgetroopers, Smashers, Beasts) supported by heavy guns (Droideka, Missile and minigun troopers and rifle purge troopers), so having two different styles can come up handy....if you can handle the confusion. Blaster stance is kind of a hybrid of the two: you can dispatch easily peons with it, but it can also pack a punch with charged shots.
This is terrific advice. Early on I went with staff (double-bladed) and crossguard for this very reason. And still keep going back to it. Blaster stance can be really underrated sometimes too. Never loved dual wielding that much, but think it shines more when you have an enemy that either a) has little or no blocking, or b) you overcommit often and can "break" your attack to block.
BD-1 is a cool companion but NOTHING in the universe beats Skoova...i mean that character just steals the whole game with his insane appearance and his stories. Every time i find him somewhere getting a fish i chill out and just listen to that insane little dude go crazy. Fav stance is double bladed + cross stance. Have not used anything else since i got both. The double bladed is a completely insane stance that i could have used just that and nothing else. (25hours into the game so far)
I feel bad for the people who are having issues with the game, it's running flawlessly on my XBOX X. The rendering is absolutely beautiful, the combat and level of control is dramatically better then the previous game, and the addition of amputations with the lightsaber especially when performing a Perry at the end of their life bar is fantastic. There is something really gratifying about looking at the dismembered corpse of your enemy after a well-timed Kill. I'm only 2 hours in and a good chunk of this time has been spent replaying enemies after a meditation point just to get my timing down, I wish more people were having the same experience I am having. Have the majority of the people throwing down hate online actually play the game?😂
I was having big FPS drops on PS5 Performance Mode and looked up what I could do, since you can't turn down the graphics in any way. Running in Quality Mode has actually made a huge improvement because it only runs in 30fps but at least it's a constant 30fps.
If I turn the game on after it’s been on rest mode it’s almost unplayable and gets that same laggy look that fallen order had back in the day. But when it’s good it’s beautiful
Just started playing after finally finding a series X that was available on Amazon, textures are still a hot mess on Koboh. Popping details in and out. I turned off film grain and blur hoping it would speed up things, at least I don't fall through the floor when I enter the cantina now...😅
I've been getting on fine without the Wisdom perk. I've found the Shatter perk which you can get really early from a certain boss really usesful. The guarding in this game seems to be far higher than FO, Shatter combined with the light and heavy attacks from dualbladed stance can stun lock some of the more annoying mob enemies if you're lucky.
I slept on Confusion for too long. Turns out, the new force power with its own skill tree? The one they give you on the first planet? Yeah, enemy encounters are designed with the assumption that you'll use it. Who knew? Not me!
Funnily enough my fav stances are the later unlocks, blaster and crossguard. I knew i'd love crossguard coz i'm a great sword user in souls games, I like a slow timed swing but heavy hit. Great vid, I forgot about getting the keycard in the shop lol
Guys! This is exactly what I needed. It's a bit lengthy but the results are beautiful man. My FPS and the quality of the game dropped suddenly. I was playing with good graphics and then the next time it was barely running. Following the directions of this video actually upgraded how the game looks and runs and also my monitor's image quality.
I disagree about the first point. I recommend exploring as much as possible at first. Yes, you'll come across a bunch of areas/collectables that you can't access yet, but you'll be leveling up the whole time and advancing your skills, which makes the rest of the game easier and more enjoyable. Plus this way you can take a break from the exploration and play the story, rather than leave the exploration right to the end, which for Koboh especially can be a bit much since there is so much to do.
Exploring early was a benefit for me because I could fast travel close to where I needed to go. I also found ways around some of the places I wasn't supposed to get past. Just because you can't get to something in the intended method doesn't necessarily mean that you can't get there in a harder method.
I can't verify that Skillpoints are hard to come by. In my first playthrough i maxed out every skill tree and had 24 points to spare probably because i never left out a fight, grabbed every rumor, riddle, upgrade, bounty and so on. I also started by maxing out the survivor skill tree then i spread my points the way i need them. Pushing heavy hitters our untis with a shield into the dust makes defeating them much easier. Once Force push is maxed out even bosses aren't safe from getting pushed off of cliffs. There are some exceptions tho. Like a certain Bountyhunter. Never used Wisdom tbh it was kind of a waste to spend three slots on this one. I think it is much more recommandable to fight more and look more thoroughly while progressing than wasting three essential points on a bonus perk like that. Doubleblade is one of the most useful stances in my opinion since you can switch from defens to offense so fast by the push of one button. Also the guard bar seems to be much more resillient in that style. later i combined it with the crossguard style because it could reflect blaster fire with an AoE damage effect. Yes i play a very defensive style that in turn make every hit count that i dish out. Mastering evasion is one of the things i also recommend since there are enemies that can end you in one hit like the Rancors heavy grapple or the Ogoddos tongue.
I play on the hardest difficulty, I use the pistol stance because enemies are super hard and hard to parry so the long range with the pistol is super helpful. Hope this help
When I started the game, I just pressed all the buttons randomly in a combat, and that was works some time. But later the game pushed me to mastering all the moves, blocks, hits, to learn different strategies for a different kind of enemies. I tried all the stances until stopped on crossguarded (which is my favorite because of shocking effect) + dual wield set. So yes, agree, mastering the stance, moves, and force using is pretty important at the middle of the game.
Kind of off topic, but I just decided to do a second play through, and I did like replay+ (something like that), where you start out with all your skill points from your last play through AND your max health and stims. It’s cool but actually quite hard. All your enemies are WAY stronger than ever before. Most can kill you in one hit, and taking one blaster shot takes 99% of your health. You’ll find the need to use stims a lot. I really recommend maxing out your confusion strength. It can be invaluable in some situations. If you can look and see who is the toughest opponent, like the trooper with the flame thrower, or a giant monster and make them fight for you, you can attack the weaker ones and let your confused puppet take care of the rest, then kill him 😆. It’s very useful.
"Hey, BD, what's it like, hacking other droids?" *disquieted bleeps* "Yeah, I'd feel weird hacking other people, too." Guess Cal got over it... "It's for a good cause, right?"
Dual wield is great and a favourite of many for good reason. It looks cool. But more importantly, it's fast. If you have a habit of spamming attacks, most stances that will get you killed as the enemy will start an unblockable attack and you can't stop your attack animation to block or dodge. Dual wield attacks are so fast that they rarely have that issue. But I would suggest putting points into single wield stance instead of dual wield. Single wield has a jump force attack that you unlock with skill points. It's OP. As long as you have force power, you can devestate enemies with it. Minute long duels turn into second long fights.
One thing I recommend because of the skill points experience being slow to gain at the start. Is when you get to Koboh initially you grind by the oil well. Where you find the big lion looking gorilla monster thing and the raiders with the B2 droid. And then just rest and re-fight them. You can get experience prett quick and it helps to level Cal up.
I have to disagree, respec all you want. There's a couple spots early point in the first planet that's easy to farm XP and you absolutely should tinker with the skills as much as you want and just respec if you don't like them. One skill point is not that much, especially if you get a skill on the stances that you don't like or decide that you want to go with a different stance, respec as much as you want.
I didn’t know about skill point but i wasted 3 hours in Courosant to grind out 30 skill points to try and leanr all the survival and jedi skill. it gave me a nice cushion to worked with for the rest of the game
Just on my fourth play-through of Fallen Order. Is Cal still an underpowered Palawan who had about maybe 5 years of training before Order 66 then 10 years or so of no training whatsoever or has he finally been given some decent POWER capable of defeating the bosses? I don't have a series X so can't get Jedi Survivor.
Tipp: perfect EP farming at the meditation spot at the village on kobah...run up defeat the beast (push him down the cliff) and fly down... You meet few squads of troops on the waytakes about 10min for 1 ep point .
Also this game is so much fun to play just do it the way you like. I did use all the stances, and what I've learned is that some stances are better with high-level combat and others useful in some specific cases, so don't be afraid to use them all.
A couple tips from me (even though the games been out for ages) would be to stay clever especially against bosses as the combat is a lot more challenging and tactical (imo better for it as well) than the first game and sometimes it’s best to force an attack then keep your distance so you understand the attacks more. On top of that I’d say try to be aggressive once you’ve learnt the attacks, pretty much all bosses and enemies in general, bar from any basic enemy with a gun (NOT INCLUDING BOUNTY HUNTERS COUNT THEM AS A BOSS) are a bit easier keeping close and not allowing too many attacks from a distance. For me using double bladed I found it much easier learning the attacks and then staying close and aggressive, perfect parties and dodges are your friend don’t be afraid to fail a few times to get them right it’s really worth it and makes the combat a lot more satisfying too. A final tip would be explore the area that the story takes you too. So on your way to an objective or in an “area“ of the story explore it then. You’ll find you come across pretty much ALL areas of each planet as the story progresses and if you did miss anything it’s still fun to revisit these planet especially after the story when there are a lot of new things worth travelling back for and anything you think you missed (unless you were really thorough) I guarantee you most likely would of needed the skills you get further in the story anyway👍
Honestly, Crossguard can do basically anything if you can get over the slow speed, and you can always pair it with blaster to bypass block on some block-heavy enemies if you need to finish them off
My favorite stance is primary blaster and secondary double blade. The blaster stance is great against powerful opponents and there are only two of them but still versatile to handle a boat load of low level minions. The double blade for its speed and ability to jump around space being a beyblade o death. But.... once I have all of my force powers mastered I trade double blade for cross guard and fight like Darth vader at the end of rogue one
On Exploration, the game kind of guides you with exploration. You won't get a rumor for something you can't yet access. So just do all the rumors and move on to the next story bit.
I was surprised at how many stims you get early by the 3rd planet I was on (shattered moon) I had 6 lmao, so I reset my skill tree and took a few off vitality
As you progress yoy can get map upgrades that show you the locations of chests, upgrades, scans etc these are super useful for my fellow completionists who wanna find absolutely everything
I've seen folks recommending to leave Kobo as soon as possible in the beginning of the game & I couldn't disagree with that more. You should familiarize yourself with what part of the planet is open to you but there are many things here that one would be foolish to leave behind until returning later. And people should keep in mind that there are things that unlock here upon the completion of the initial mission, like Zee's shop. I have been focusing on 2 stances on my initial play though & I would think that not upgrading both, the traditional Saber & the lightsaber staff, would cause a hinderence throughout the early game but that's just me.
For the most part of things, I'm doing or have done the same thing which you did as well. Exploring every nook and cranny on each level. Exploring does help so that way you have a good idea as to where everything is, what's going on in the field, what you're up against and so on. There are some abilities which I have already unlocked and there are some which I haven't unlocked yet such as that green forcefield. I don't have an ability to teleport through that yet.
There's a process where you can get a skill point every 30 seconds or so after you get the blaster stance. It's on TH-cam. - I'd recommend doing that. Get all your skill points. Then continue however you want to play
If you have a good memory the first mistake isn’t that big of a deal, if anything it’s not even a mistake at all considering you’re clearing the path back to wherever you left off so that when you have your skills to progress in that area most of the time you can even just fast travel to it.
When exploring Fon-Qui’s cave you can fight the rancor and it will give you half a bar of xp. If you die to one of the red bomb creatures you can fight it again, and your death marker will be reclaimed upon its defeat. I got 10 skill points in 20 minutes using this method
I need to say that once you have maxed out on skills, you shouldn't be needing to get anymore skill points, what is the point of all those extra ones, there is no use for them
I think the mind control mechanics are bugged for me (Ps5). Because I have the entire tree unlocked, but when I try to control the 2nd person it always cancels the 1st. And it doesn't last more than 4 seconds.
There's just way too much follow through, in both games. So many times I'd instinctively button mash, finish an attack, and he'd keep attacking for a good 5 seconds due to command queue. God forbid I suddenly need to block. My favorite style in Survivor is Duel Wield partially because it has much better innate animation canceling just by doing a parry.
I'm on my very first playthrough. And because I'm an idiot, I fell for the Spawn of Oggdo trap. Seeing this frog doesn't play fair, making it's tongue bite attack an OHKO. I decided, why should I play fair? The trick is, get rid of the droids on the platform, but do not step on it. Then look up and force pull the sentinels on the top. Then run around in circles until they are on the platform. It is then you have to step on it for it to open, double jump to safety and watch Oggdo's health go to 40% reliably and then with a bit of luck, finish him off.
You should really put a disclaimer that these are YOUR opinions on mistakes that you have made cause since you said there are technically unlimited skill points then its fine for players to level up what ever tree is BEST for them and if they want to switch it up they CAN pay that one skill point to revert it back. You blocked in the video with LB but you can also dodge the red attacks with B/Circle since LB and B/Circle are standard for every stance which tells you at start of the game so wondering how you get that confused with Y/Triangle for blocking.
Logged almost 20 hours before I finally left Koboh. Definitely recommend leaving and coming back after you’ve visited the third planet you can actually navigate to. Trust me
I have a tip and a fun fact. The fun fact, you can earn enough skill points to max out every skill tree by collecting everything and getting 100% in the game. Quite handy for journey+ that refunds all of your skill points. Now for the tip. Do not, i repeat, do NOT, equip the warrior perk on journey+ if you struggled with Spawn of Oggdo, least gou encounter it in the open unexpectedly
Basically use your rear back after like three to four mastery when you've mastered three of them it's perfectly fine to reset mainly because you know what since you want you know what Force power you want and of course you're going to max out survival
What's your favourite Lightsaber stance?
Only got the first 3 so far, but the duel wielding is so fast and right up my alley, just left Koboh loving it
Cross guard and double bladed.
Standart 1 Hand and Double bladed. Didnt unlocked Crossguard yet but the Counter on the Dual Wield is way to slow. Also the small Guard Bar especially on Jedi Grandmaster is a no go for me. Tested Blaster Stance a little bit but it just feel wrong.
5:45 god I laughed so hard at that
Crossguard
use a stim to top off your health before you open the stim chest - when you get a new stim/stim slot it will automatically max out all your stims so it's like a free rest without resetting the mobs.
oh a game where you can rush threw without doing anything and still there are bugs to abuse liovelky

I can not stress how incredibly important and useful force confusion is. In this game and in the last, getting ganged up on was a major obstacle and a very quick way to die. But with confusion, get at least one or more of those (human) characters to fight with you and make things more even. My advice is to max out that skill tree as fast as possible.
I barely used confusion because for some reason it takes me out of the flow of the fight, I know I don't have to but it feels like I have to disengage to confuse an enemy
Just wait until you can start confusing the wildlife--it is a huge help!
@@tsunamiii367 I confuse first from as far away or up as possible. After pared down the enemies, then I just go and and use my saber.
Is there some kind of adjustment to confusion in ng plus? I have the tree maxed out but every time I try to use it the game doesn't allow me to.
😢
My Tip: There is a skill that makes stim refill most of your force meter. Get it fast. It makes specially those harder fights a lot easier as you have a lot more force available to use.
Ended up getting this upgrade shortly before Act 3. Was very upset with myself for not getting it as soon as I could for how useful it was
Where can I find it?
@@XxOM3GA75xX Under "Survival: Resilience" the skill is named "The Power of Friendship"
You can google it.
Probably not new information for most players, but for me it was, so I'll make it my tip: jumping over attacks is the replacement for the (now removed) dodge roll, so many of the red unblockable attacks are best jumped over and not dodged.
Dodging in general has been made more difficult and less spamable compared to the first game (the timing required is much tighter, enemies have more attacks that home in on you until the last moment before they connect making dodging to the side useless and the forced "pause" between dodges seems longer to me) and is much less useful now. Learn to jump instead.
Learn jump dodging. Once you unlock the mid air dash if you just tap jump and immediately tap dodge it will do a dodge just above the ground with practically 0 recovery time unlike the normal dodge. Takes some practice but I was much better off once I got it down.
There is a force ability that allows auto dodge. I've been using it in conjunction with the Flux perk. It makes most battles easier to complete.
maybe play part 1 it was decent this is jsut grabage. better ülay darksouls (obvi got baited at game 1 and it was fine seond game is jsut fckignb trash)
Ty for this ive been struggling with even just those little furry things bc they do non stop red attacks so im constantly trying to time O
I literally just beat Fallen Order, and jumped into Jedi Survivor in the same day. Same combat, same controls, same gameplay/exploration. The only differences are more customization, bigger world, more abilities and stances. The story is less compelling sure but calling it trash? That is crazy lol@@WeedmanSkirr
When you arrive at Ramblers Reach there will be a rumour quest near the workbench asking you to find missing prospectors in a mine close by. You have to fight a massive rankor beast & you will receive the shatter perk upon victory. The perk breaks the enemies block & leaves them temporarily stunned 👍
the perk increases block meter dmg when you attack an opponent
I just beat him it was so cool to see you can also put a bone in his mouth if he grabs you to try and eat you.
@james !!! What? A way to avoid instant death by the rancor? I gave up on that, as it was so extremely difficult to stay alive.
I need to know the best way to beat this beast
@@NoSubstitute you can cheese him, jump out over the ledge and then back to the ledge. From there once he's closer you can repeatedly saber throw him to death. That's what I did.
My tips: don't bother trying to find the last missing treasure in specific zone early on, there will be an upgrade which will put the icons on the map later on for each of the treasure types which would help you find missing things. Crossguard stance at least for me became the default stance as soon as I got it, and I only switched to double-blade for groups of small enemies.
I am so slow with crossguard. I love its power, but I don’t know how to handle heavy raiders and beasts that are so freaking fast and relentless.
@@midnightcitizen you will eventually learn their patterns anyways and blocking parrying dodging at the right moment will be natural, at least that's how I approached it
What about when you get to an icon on the map and the treasure isn't there? Like in the saddle barn by the cantina. I have an icon right in one corner and nothing is there. It's driving me crazy.
@@benschroeder4036 For these ones better to google, but that one in particular is when you stable a mount in there and it leaves the ore in the manure after a bit. but I might be wrong.
@@voronovychda Yeah, I didn't want to Google it, but I did because my game was being a little visually glitchy last night and I wanted to make sure it wasn't technical issues. I probably wouldn't have ever boarded an animal in there otherwise.
My tip for when you’re starting out: plan on using your free skill point refresh only after you unlocked all stances. Up until that point, upgrade what you want, experiment, test things out. Then when you unlock the last stance, figure out your primary stance load, what abilities you like to use and focus on those when you refresh.
To anyone playing this, refrain from exploring until you get the "baloons" traversal. Backtracking on this game is pain so better save it for later when none of the obstacle will hinder your wanderlust.
Thanks for this video. Kinda sad to only find hate vids on the game. It plays fine for me and it really is beautiful, im 7 hours in. Just got to 2nd planet and then came in to work
The game runs like ass on ps5 performance mode. I'm on the second planet and it chugs at 20 FPS. Kinda sad to see people like you excusing the dog shit optimisation and being corporate apologists.
Aside from performance the game is fun which is what most of the "hate" videos seem to be talking about.
I mean the hate is somewhat justified. If it runs 'fine' for you, then that's okay but it doesn't negate the issues with the game for most people. It doesn't run as it should on PS5 or high-end PCs from what I can see. Not sure about Series X.
I’ve had no issues on my PS5
@@dave011679 And, as I said to the other guy, good for you. But it doesn't negate the fact that there are widespread issues with the game that need fixing. I can see on my PS5 that it doesn't perform as it should do in performance mode and is notably worse than other new titles I've bought for PS in the past. It's the same story for countless other players.
Beautiful? I don't know about that, graphics are pretty disappointing tbh. Does this look like a PS5 game to you?
Thank you so much! You offered awesome advice, I'm still on Koboh, so this was perfect for me! 👍 Thanks also for not spoiling anything. Honestly, it's just an excellent video!! 🌠
Iceman, you're amazing! Thanks for the kind words and super chat. Appreciate it.
The First Stim Upgrade is actually already in Coruscant in the Meat Factory guarded by a Security Droid....i even leveled on the Enemy cause the Meditation point is right at there but i still missed the Chest because they look so different compared to Fallen Order....now i have to wait till i can revisit the Planet 😓
you can revisit right away
@@ariici no you cant. Once your done with the Planet its gone from the Planetary Map. You have to wait till after the 2nd visit of Jedha
@@DantoriusD not true
@@DantoriusD i was able to go to coruscant right away
@@ariici Dude Stop telling BS. You even get a Notification after Jedha when you go to the Map in your Ship. Cal says that now Merin joined the Crew they can go back to Coruscant since she can hide the Ship. Just watch some "All Stim Location Videos" nearly all of them mention that if you miss the first Container you have to wait till your much further into the Game.
If you’re coming over from Fallen Order, check your confidence in Parrying and Reflecting blaster bolts at the door. Combat situations where you have to deal with both melee AND ranged opponents are much more frequent in this game, and if you don’t take the right approach you’re gonna find yourself getting lit up a lot. Take a cautious and patient approach to battle like a real Jedi would, rather than flying in sabers blazin
I can't deflect every bolt back from a minigun with single saber now smh
@WildRebel69 you can. I do it constantly. Duel blade and saber staff combo. Or the cross guard. Straight out with time slow and rush as much as you can before time is normal. Then it's just the pattern game. Watch them then strike. Lol easy. I absolutely love this game. You actually feel powerful at the end.
You can also get unlocks that show you every chest and scan point on the map
Within the first 40 seconds, you've won me over and earned my respect. Thanks for not spoiling the game while giving us quality info regarding the game. Cheers bro , yr a legend mate.
That's what everyone should do. It's sad that you have to thank someone for it, but that's the case
So far the blaster is my go to. It trivialized ogdo and rancor on grand master. It might just match my play style but I highly recommend giving it a shot.
"Give it a shot"--I saw what you did there.
@@benschroeder4036I don’t think that’s what he did there lol 😂
I love how BD pushes buttons in the matis when Greez isnt looking.. Watch him when your in hyperspace
I always explore whatever I can before progressing. That way I can go back and say, "oh hey I can go here now." And then I can stay into exploring. Compared to Fallen Order I was blown away with how massive Koboh is. I'm still finding areas that I didn't see were there. I am pretty perceptive and know how to read maps. Now that you mention it it does have a GOW feel to it. Just different buttons.
I think the best change to the map is that you don’t clearly see every single level. The level you’re on is the only level you see.
The levels also seem much more spread out rather than stacked on top of each other. In the first game I was always switching between map levels trying to figure out which path would actually get me where I wanted to go. Add on fast travel and constantly unlocking shortcuts to make re-exploring easier, and I'm looking forward much more to 100%-ing Survivor. Spending literal hours sometimes tracking down that one last scannable on the farthest side of Kashyyk, getting lost, and trying to get back to the ship broke my soul.
@@Cat-o-mancerI would have to agree. Even if there wasn’t fast travel in this, the amount of shortcuts there are makes things so much easier.
Really appreciate the spoiler-free walkthrough. That was awesome
Thanks for the tips!
HUGE! Thanks for the tip! Hope you're enjoying the game :)
Great vid! I'm a big fan of the double-bladed lightsaber. It has great reach, and wears down enemy guard quickly. In terms of tips, mine would be to remember you can throw your lightsaber right from the start. Hold block, and then hit your force attack button (triangle/x/whatever). Does decent damage, and gives you a little range. Also, force push kills regular battle droids.
Just remember, if you use the Skill Points properly and carefully, use it for your own stances that you currently used, such as Single-bladed or Double-bladed. The reason why is of course, if using a Single-bladed, you can focused DPS, Range, Speed and you can deflect 2 blasters back to the enemy, especially against Bosses. You can also use Dual Wield, but beware, Dual Wield is a Glass Cannon, means you cannot perfectly block more than 1 Blaster bolt back, it has High Damage and Speed, but Low Range.
i recommend learning to Force Dodge glowing red attacks. just press the dodge button without a directional input. The timing is pretty easy and you gain force energy back for doing it.
My tip: Use force parry to parry unblockable attacks
I’ve played through the story 3 times now and I’m on the way to 100% the game, but for some reason I still watch these kind of videos every time I see them 😂 good video though, the only thing I would add is I’d probably focus mainly on the story for your first play through. Not only is the story really good, but that’s how you get all the upgrades you’ll need to access every area in the game. Nothing wrong with doing a little exploring, but I’d recommend doing the main story before doing all the rumors and stuff
Spot ON! Great tips. As I think was mentioned by others, there is a stim on Coruscant that is pretty easy to get. I 100% agree with all of your tips. Confusion especially. One of the other things you get to upgrade is, for lack of a better way to put it, the power level of the humanoid you can confuse. If you go straight up the tree you can confuse almost anyone below a boss. It is super effective. I also had the same problem with trying out stances. When I got gun/saber I HATED it because it was so awkward after using the double bladed lightsaber with its constant sweeping ballet of death. It just kept stabbing and stopping. It is a fun stance, but it plays VERY differently. Speaking of stances, with dual wield it is important to note that it is the only stance where you can actually interrupt an attack action to PARRY. I put that in caps because it is amazing you can interrupt animations, but it ONLY works for parry not for dodge.
I know there will be stuff that I won’t be able to access but I will explore it not only to get a feel of the layout of the planet but also so I can get for example all of the different light sabre parts and customisations for cal and bd
I loved the Scuba Steve gag when I started playing 😀
Scooba stev lol yes
I personally like finding an area where I can rinse and repeat efficiently there’s groups of enemies especially near rest stops I take advantage of this and it also helps with getting timing down with stances in less than an hour you can gain roughly 8-10 skill points by doing this because one the enemies are so close and 2 you’ll gain about an 8th of a bar of xp towards your next point per rest and respawning enemies
I love the droid fort where you can fin spawn of Oggdo. The droid carrier and the hanger behind it had literal waves of enemies. Super fun challenge and a meditation point right in the middle of the area.
@@BuddyChy that’s the one I’m talking about also right above the spawn point where on platform you take out about 8 droids you can force pull the 2 guys with the hammers down to that platform and they give a 4th of a bar each of xp maybe a little more I love taking my time with these types of games cause 1 I I have to get my Jedi reflexes back because even playing on Jedi Master those enemies can be quite brutal I haven’t even left the first planet yet I’m just enjoying the game the droid conversations are a riot and I like taking my time and getting my skill points up learning those mechanics
@@kalaban2015 yeah I love that. I love that you can satisfyingly enjoy this game like that. I always listen to droid conversations. they’re hilarious. Later on, there’s two B2 droids that argue over which one has superiority based on their model number. One says it’s higher number gives him superiority but the other says the lower number means he was made first so he has superiority. The first one then says that’s not how numbers work lmao. So entertaining.
I’ve also primarily stick to double blade stance and I still feel like I can master it so much more, yet there’s four other stances I’ve had little experience with and I’m already almost done with the story. I can’t wait to keep playing and do NG+ mastering different stances.
@@BuddyChy I like the double bladed stance when fighting droids and when being fired upon then I’ll swap to single blade when fighting melee because it seems to do really good damage and breaks guard quickly
@@kalaban2015 facts. Good strategy. I’ve just been using only double bladed so I can truly master its capabilities and learn how to use it effectively even in its weaknesses. That way I actually get better at using it overall rather than only using it for its strengths. I’ll probably branch out to the other styles a lot more after I beat the story but right now it’s too much fun.
Shatter is a good early game perk
Loving crossgaurd and double for crowd control
I've found out that it usually pays up to have two different lightsaber stances that complement each other. Something that has more oomph (Single blade, cross-guard) to faster style combat (Double-blade, dual wield). Bosses can have different fighting phases, where switching between quick and strong can help: final boss I ran trough with first phase using dual-wield to stay on offensive, but second phase I went trough with a single saber, as I thought I'd need more defense and hitting power per swing.
Also the game likes to mix between enemy mobs where you might get one mob that is relatively weak but insanely numerous melee attackers suplemented with ranged fighters, or alternatively heavy-type of enemies (Droids, Purgetroopers, Smashers, Beasts) supported by heavy guns (Droideka, Missile and minigun troopers and rifle purge troopers), so having two different styles can come up handy....if you can handle the confusion.
Blaster stance is kind of a hybrid of the two: you can dispatch easily peons with it, but it can also pack a punch with charged shots.
This is terrific advice. Early on I went with staff (double-bladed) and crossguard for this very reason. And still keep going back to it.
Blaster stance can be really underrated sometimes too. Never loved dual wielding that much, but think it shines more when you have an enemy that either a) has little or no blocking, or b) you overcommit often and can "break" your attack to block.
BD-1 is a cool companion but NOTHING in the universe beats Skoova...i mean that character just steals the whole game with his insane appearance and his stories. Every time i find him somewhere getting a fish i chill out and just listen to that insane little dude go crazy. Fav stance is double bladed + cross stance. Have not used anything else since i got both. The double bladed is a completely insane stance that i could have used just that and nothing else. (25hours into the game so far)
I feel bad for the people who are having issues with the game, it's running flawlessly on my XBOX X. The rendering is absolutely beautiful, the combat and level of control is dramatically better then the previous game, and the addition of amputations with the lightsaber especially when performing a Perry at the end of their life bar is fantastic. There is something really gratifying about looking at the dismembered corpse of your enemy after a well-timed Kill. I'm only 2 hours in and a good chunk of this time has been spent replaying enemies after a meditation point just to get my timing down, I wish more people were having the same experience I am having. Have the majority of the people throwing down hate online actually play the game?😂
I was having big FPS drops on PS5 Performance Mode and looked up what I could do, since you can't turn down the graphics in any way. Running in Quality Mode has actually made a huge improvement because it only runs in 30fps but at least it's a constant 30fps.
Yeah I’ve had zero issues on PS5 🤷🏽♀️
If I turn the game on after it’s been on rest mode it’s almost unplayable and gets that same laggy look that fallen order had back in the day. But when it’s good it’s beautiful
Just started playing after finally finding a series X that was available on Amazon, textures are still a hot mess on Koboh. Popping details in and out. I turned off film grain and blur hoping it would speed up things, at least I don't fall through the floor when I enter the cantina now...😅
@@d3ltabrav0 yea man for some reason the consoles can’t handle it, I am surprised tho cause most say it runs smoother on the X. Hope u figure it out g
A small combat tip. Alot of smaller enemies can be force pulled to you and then Insta killed with one attack while they are in the air
This is my first time watching any of your videos and I’m super impressed at how well made it is
I've been getting on fine without the Wisdom perk. I've found the Shatter perk which you can get really early from a certain boss really usesful. The guarding in this game seems to be far higher than FO, Shatter combined with the light and heavy attacks from dualbladed stance can stun lock some of the more annoying mob enemies if you're lucky.
BD is a droid puppy, love that little guy
I slept on Confusion for too long. Turns out, the new force power with its own skill tree? The one they give you on the first planet? Yeah, enemy encounters are designed with the assumption that you'll use it. Who knew? Not me!
Funnily enough my fav stances are the later unlocks, blaster and crossguard. I knew i'd love crossguard coz i'm a great sword user in souls games, I like a slow timed swing but heavy hit. Great vid, I forgot about getting the keycard in the shop lol
Guys! This is exactly what I needed. It's a bit lengthy but the results are beautiful man. My FPS and the quality of the game dropped suddenly. I was playing with good graphics and then the next time it was barely running. Following the directions of this video actually upgraded how the game looks and runs and also my monitor's image quality.
I disagree about the first point. I recommend exploring as much as possible at first. Yes, you'll come across a bunch of areas/collectables that you can't access yet, but you'll be leveling up the whole time and advancing your skills, which makes the rest of the game easier and more enjoyable. Plus this way you can take a break from the exploration and play the story, rather than leave the exploration right to the end, which for Koboh especially can be a bit much since there is so much to do.
Exploring early was a benefit for me because I could fast travel close to where I needed to go. I also found ways around some of the places I wasn't supposed to get past. Just because you can't get to something in the intended method doesn't necessarily mean that you can't get there in a harder method.
I can't verify that Skillpoints are hard to come by. In my first playthrough i maxed out every skill tree and had 24 points to spare probably because i never left out a fight, grabbed every rumor, riddle, upgrade, bounty and so on. I also started by maxing out the survivor skill tree then i spread my points the way i need them. Pushing heavy hitters our untis with a shield into the dust makes defeating them much easier. Once Force push is maxed out even bosses aren't safe from getting pushed off of cliffs. There are some exceptions tho. Like a certain Bountyhunter.
Never used Wisdom tbh it was kind of a waste to spend three slots on this one. I think it is much more recommandable to fight more and look more thoroughly while progressing than wasting three essential points on a bonus perk like that.
Doubleblade is one of the most useful stances in my opinion since you can switch from defens to offense so fast by the push of one button. Also the guard bar seems to be much more resillient in that style. later i combined it with the crossguard style because it could reflect blaster fire with an AoE damage effect. Yes i play a very defensive style that in turn make every hit count that i dish out. Mastering evasion is one of the things i also recommend since there are enemies that can end you in one hit like the Rancors heavy grapple or the Ogoddos tongue.
I’m 40 hours into my first play through. I’ve back tracked and explored for the majority of the time. It’s an amazing game!
I play on the hardest difficulty, I use the pistol stance because enemies are super hard and hard to parry so the long range with the pistol is super helpful. Hope this help
When I started the game, I just pressed all the buttons randomly in a combat, and that was works some time. But later the game pushed me to mastering all the moves, blocks, hits, to learn different strategies for a different kind of enemies. I tried all the stances until stopped on crossguarded (which is my favorite because of shocking effect) + dual wield set.
So yes, agree, mastering the stance, moves, and force using is pretty important at the middle of the game.
Kind of off topic, but I just decided to do a second play through, and I did like replay+ (something like that), where you start out with all your skill points from your last play through AND your max health and stims. It’s cool but actually quite hard. All your enemies are WAY stronger than ever before. Most can kill you in one hit, and taking one blaster shot takes 99% of your health. You’ll find the need to use stims a lot. I really recommend maxing out your confusion strength. It can be invaluable in some situations. If you can look and see who is the toughest opponent, like the trooper with the flame thrower, or a giant monster and make them fight for you, you can attack the weaker ones and let your confused puppet take care of the rest, then kill him 😆. It’s very useful.
"Hey, BD, what's it like, hacking other droids?" *disquieted bleeps* "Yeah, I'd feel weird hacking other people, too."
Guess Cal got over it... "It's for a good cause, right?"
Dual wield is great and a favourite of many for good reason. It looks cool. But more importantly, it's fast. If you have a habit of spamming attacks, most stances that will get you killed as the enemy will start an unblockable attack and you can't stop your attack animation to block or dodge. Dual wield attacks are so fast that they rarely have that issue.
But I would suggest putting points into single wield stance instead of dual wield. Single wield has a jump force attack that you unlock with skill points. It's OP. As long as you have force power, you can devestate enemies with it. Minute long duels turn into second long fights.
One thing I recommend because of the skill points experience being slow to gain at the start. Is when you get to Koboh initially you grind by the oil well. Where you find the big lion looking gorilla monster thing and the raiders with the B2 droid. And then just rest and re-fight them. You can get experience prett quick and it helps to level Cal up.
I have to disagree, respec all you want. There's a couple spots early point in the first planet that's easy to farm XP and you absolutely should tinker with the skills as much as you want and just respec if you don't like them. One skill point is not that much, especially if you get a skill on the stances that you don't like or decide that you want to go with a different stance, respec as much as you want.
I didn’t know about skill point but i wasted 3 hours in Courosant to grind out 30 skill points to try and leanr all the survival and jedi skill. it gave me a nice cushion to worked with for the rest of the game
1:33 thank you! Ive spent so much time here and basically about to just keep on woth the mission
My tip: Upgraded double blade is pretty efective aganist rancor. I even found a place, where i can farm XP on rancor.
It is? I always found the double bladed saber to be a bit slow but then again I didn’t upgrade it much. Where can I farm a rancor?
Just on my fourth play-through of Fallen Order. Is Cal still an underpowered Palawan who had about maybe 5 years of training before Order 66 then 10 years or so of no training whatsoever or has he finally been given some decent POWER capable of defeating the bosses? I don't have a series X so can't get Jedi Survivor.
Tipp: perfect EP farming at the meditation spot at the village on kobah...run up defeat the beast (push him down the cliff) and fly down... You meet few squads of troops on the waytakes about 10min for 1 ep point .
Also this game is so much fun to play just do it the way you like. I did use all the stances, and what I've learned is that some stances are better with high-level combat and others useful in some specific cases, so don't be afraid to use them all.
I love this game so much
Thank you Nozza! Got stuck on 1st planet so I appreciate the help! Nice to hear a fellow Aussie! Have a great day! 👍
Playing on Series X and this game is fantastic.
Just got this game. Lol love star wars so im enjoying this. Had to chuckle at optional bosses since my first one was the rancor.
A couple tips from me (even though the games been out for ages) would be to stay clever especially against bosses as the combat is a lot more challenging and tactical (imo better for it as well) than the first game and sometimes it’s best to force an attack then keep your distance so you understand the attacks more. On top of that I’d say try to be aggressive once you’ve learnt the attacks, pretty much all bosses and enemies in general, bar from any basic enemy with a gun (NOT INCLUDING BOUNTY HUNTERS COUNT THEM AS A BOSS) are a bit easier keeping close and not allowing too many attacks from a distance. For me using double bladed I found it much easier learning the attacks and then staying close and aggressive, perfect parties and dodges are your friend don’t be afraid to fail a few times to get them right it’s really worth it and makes the combat a lot more satisfying too. A final tip would be explore the area that the story takes you too. So on your way to an objective or in an “area“ of the story explore it then. You’ll find you come across pretty much ALL areas of each planet as the story progresses and if you did miss anything it’s still fun to revisit these planet especially after the story when there are a lot of new things worth travelling back for and anything you think you missed (unless you were really thorough) I guarantee you most likely would of needed the skills you get further in the story anyway👍
Honestly, Crossguard can do basically anything if you can get over the slow speed, and you can always pair it with blaster to bypass block on some block-heavy enemies if you need to finish them off
Thanks for the tips!
That holomap is possibly the worst map I have ever came across in a game.
So when is the time that all abilities needed for exploring are acquired?
My favorite stance is primary blaster and secondary double blade. The blaster stance is great against powerful opponents and there are only two of them but still versatile to handle a boat load of low level minions. The double blade for its speed and ability to jump around space being a beyblade o death. But.... once I have all of my force powers mastered I trade double blade for cross guard and fight like Darth vader at the end of rogue one
On Exploration, the game kind of guides you with exploration. You won't get a rumor for something you can't yet access. So just do all the rumors and move on to the next story bit.
I was surprised at how many stims you get early by the 3rd planet I was on (shattered moon) I had 6 lmao, so I reset my skill tree and took a few off vitality
As you progress yoy can get map upgrades that show you the locations of chests, upgrades, scans etc these are super useful for my fellow completionists who wanna find absolutely everything
I never used the force or survival tree much. Played on jedi grandmaster mode. The game was pretty fun just by speccing into the lightsabers skills
How do you progress without ending at the start of the game every time killed. Re spawn only option offered.
My tip is to equip one stance that is good for clearing lots of easier enemies and one that's good for clearing one hard enemy.
Dual blade & dual wield for me
Awesome video! Thanks for considering spoiler footage!
I've got double blade and crossguard rn. Not very good at the precision evade so I go with the high defense stances
I've seen folks recommending to leave Kobo as soon as possible in the beginning of the game & I couldn't disagree with that more. You should familiarize yourself with what part of the planet is open to you but there are many things here that one would be foolish to leave behind until returning later. And people should keep in mind that there are things that unlock here upon the completion of the initial mission, like Zee's shop. I have been focusing on 2 stances on my initial play though & I would think that not upgrading both, the traditional Saber & the lightsaber staff, would cause a hinderence throughout the early game but that's just me.
For the most part of things, I'm doing or have done the same thing which you did as well. Exploring every nook and cranny on each level. Exploring does help so that way you have a good idea as to where everything is, what's going on in the field, what you're up against and so on. There are some abilities which I have already unlocked and there are some which I haven't unlocked yet such as that green forcefield. I don't have an ability to teleport through that yet.
Game is really good, much improved from the first one, and that was also good to begin with
Glad I'm not the only one that can't shake the scuba steve reference
There's a process where you can get a skill point every 30 seconds or so after you get the blaster stance. It's on TH-cam.
- I'd recommend doing that. Get all your skill points. Then continue however you want to play
If you have a good memory the first mistake isn’t that big of a deal, if anything it’s not even a mistake at all considering you’re clearing the path back to wherever you left off so that when you have your skills to progress in that area most of the time you can even just fast travel to it.
Dual sabers Y button is perfect block/parry. Upgrades cause it to hurt enemy more
Thanks for reminding me to equip Wisdom. I bought it but forgot to put it on 😅
When exploring Fon-Qui’s cave you can fight the rancor and it will give you half a bar of xp. If you die to one of the red bomb creatures you can fight it again, and your death marker will be reclaimed upon its defeat. I got 10 skill points in 20 minutes using this method
Great video it’s running perfectly on Xbox series X I’m sorry for you guys that are playing on PC you are having trouble
I need to say that once you have maxed out on skills, you shouldn't be needing to get anymore skill points, what is the point of all those extra ones, there is no use for them
Double blade and blaster stance are the best 2 overall imo
I think the mind control mechanics are bugged for me (Ps5). Because I have the entire tree unlocked, but when I try to control the 2nd person it always cancels the 1st. And it doesn't last more than 4 seconds.
Be careful using enemies to fight for you as if they get the final kill, you get 0 xp for it
Good to know thx 🙏🏾
The entertainment from it is worth it lol. Love watching the bilemaws destroy imps
@@booki7057 I like force pulling and making them shoot their own guys lol
If you then kill them you get all the xp they accrued whilst serving you on top of the xp for killing them
@@alexrobertson557 ok good to know
If I’m gonna be honest I was never a fan of the double bladed lightsaber you feel less agile with it rather than single bladed
There's just way too much follow through, in both games. So many times I'd instinctively button mash, finish an attack, and he'd keep attacking for a good 5 seconds due to command queue. God forbid I suddenly need to block. My favorite style in Survivor is Duel Wield partially because it has much better innate animation canceling just by doing a parry.
I’ve stuck with the singe and double I also had the same issue with the duel wield, Triangle button. Maybe later in the game I’ll get the hang of it.
I used duel wield the whole game, never figured out the y button
There's a stim in Corsucant, the meat area
I'm on my very first playthrough. And because I'm an idiot, I fell for the Spawn of Oggdo trap. Seeing this frog doesn't play fair, making it's tongue bite attack an OHKO. I decided, why should I play fair?
The trick is, get rid of the droids on the platform, but do not step on it. Then look up and force pull the sentinels on the top.
Then run around in circles until they are on the platform. It is then you have to step on it for it to open, double jump to safety and watch Oggdo's health go to 40% reliably and then with a bit of luck, finish him off.
You should really put a disclaimer that these are YOUR opinions on mistakes that you have made cause since you said there are technically unlimited skill points then its fine for players to level up what ever tree is BEST for them and if they want to switch it up they CAN pay that one skill point to revert it back. You blocked in the video with LB but you can also dodge the red attacks with B/Circle since LB and B/Circle are standard for every stance which tells you at start of the game so wondering how you get that confused with Y/Triangle for blocking.
Logged almost 20 hours before I finally left Koboh. Definitely recommend leaving and coming back after you’ve visited the third planet you can actually navigate to. Trust me
5:44 Personal space. Personal space!
great video enjoy that you went spoiler free with it thanks
I have a tip and a fun fact. The fun fact, you can earn enough skill points to max out every skill tree by collecting everything and getting 100% in the game. Quite handy for journey+ that refunds all of your skill points.
Now for the tip. Do not, i repeat, do NOT, equip the warrior perk on journey+ if you struggled with Spawn of Oggdo, least gou encounter it in the open unexpectedly
Basically use your rear back after like three to four mastery when you've mastered three of them it's perfectly fine to reset mainly because you know what since you want you know what Force power you want and of course you're going to max out survival
