SWTOR Jedi Consular Class Basics

Leveling-Guides.com — Mon, 04 Jul 2011 20:04:06 +0000

The Jedi Consular is the negotiator for the Republic. Similar to Yoda, the Consular would rather use intelligence and knowledge to get their needed results rather than a lightsaber. However, Jedi Consulars are very capable combatants as well. Along with Jedi Knight, Jedi Consulars are one of the two Republic aligned Force users and four possible Republic classes. Both Jedi classes start the game on Tython. The Consulars are trained more heavily in the arts of the Force than in combat, but are still outstanding warriors. They are trained to use single or double-bladed Lightsabers, depending on their specialization. Driven by curiosity and the search for knowledge, they see that through the Force, all things are connected.

Jedi Consular provide a myriad of roles including DPS, Crowd Control, Healing, and even Tanking. They not only have offensive abilities, but defensive abilities as well. They can be a utility class or fill a main role in a party. Like the Jedi Knight, they command a Corellian Defender-Class Light Corvette.

Playable species for the Jedi Consular class are Human, Miraluka, Mirilian, and Twi’lek. The advanced classes are Jedi Sage (ranged damage and crowd control or healing) and Jedi Shadow (tanking or melee burst DPS). The latter use two lightsabers, while the Sage uses one.

SWTOR Bounty Hunter Class Overview

Leveling-Guides.com — Mon, 04 Jul 2011 18:27:46 +0000

Bounty Hunters employ a wide range of tactics, utilizing technology, weaponry, explosives, brute force and old fashioned hunting skills to track down illusive prey and tip the odds in a bounty hunters favor. Generally outnumbered, but rarely outgunned, a Bounty Hunter is usually proficient in many forms of combat and weaponry, augmenting a regular trooper-worthy plethora of weapons with others such as wrist mounted flame-throwers and rockets. Most are bedecked in custom designed battle suits which can range from mobile light and medium armor, to the heavy armor suits preferred by Mandalorian warriors.

Jetpacks are also a common mainstay of a Bounty Hunters equipment due to its ability to get them into places generally inaccessible and out of the thick of fighting. Some Bounty Hunters also prefer the aerial combat option given to them by their jetpack.

The Bounty Hunter provides another unique mechanic in play style due to the need to “vent heat” thereby replenishing your action bar immediately should you become “overheated” in combat. While their action points do regenerate, this buildup, if not managed, can effectively shut down combat abilities in or out of combat.

The counterpart to the Bounty Hunter class is the Trooper. Bounty Hunters’ starting planet is Hutta, and the available species are Human and Rattataki. Available companions are Blizz. Mako, Skadge and 2V-R8. The two advanced classes are Powertech (tanks) and Mercenary (ranged DPS or healing). You can read more about the specializations in the advanced classes article.
