The Light Side Juggernaut -Part 2-

Story Side

   Starting from where I left on my previous post, I enter the Fleet and from there received a flashpoint mission for Black Talons. But before I do that I need to pick my Advanced Class and as the title of this series is, I went Juggernaut. Vette wanted to talk to me so we went to the bar in the middle of the fleet. She wanted the Shock Collar off her and I'm given the 3 option of Yes,Maybe and Shock her. I took em off and she felt kinda stupid for not asking earlier. I gain some nice affection points w/ her and we'll continue our partnership. Now onto my first ever flashpoint run.

Black Talons - Level 10 - 14 Flashpoint

   I did this w/ 2 Sith Assassins (lvl 15 and other lvl 11) and the lvl 15 Companion so no healers. This was a basic (for the most part) as it is the 1st one. We did group dialog through the instances and when it come to the light side and darkside option, I was outnumbered but I still get the light side points. You get Social points through out the flashpoint story which allows you to purchase special stuff like that infamous slave bikini (that's right folks) costume. We had no trouble until the end when we wipe against the Jedi thanks to her AoE before ending her. I recommend doing this one early w/ friends or a Pick Up Group.


Dromund Kaas - Level 11 to18

   This is a BIG planet and Kass (Kansas) City looks purely awesome. You'll wish you already have a mount from all the walking Running you have to do. I meet w/ Darth Baras and he wants me to oversee the transfer of a prisoner. Arriving at the cargo port and speaking to Commander Lanklyn two rival group lead by Slestack and TuMarr wanting the prisoner for their own means. The options that comes after is the reason why I like this class mission alot because of how it can go down. You can just Attack them all and get the jump, they team up to kill you or my favorite, get them to kill each other w/o dirtying your hands. After Getting the prisoner to Baras, you are sent to do other mission and while your master interrogate the Republic Agent.

The Power of Revan's Mask...... Frighting.

   Going off the class story a bit, you get a quest to find the identify of the Revanites Leader. For people that didn't played KOTOR, he/she was a master of the Light and Dark side. You do trials to be initiated into the cult like retrieving Revan's mask among others. After completion you innitation, you meet the master but she knows of what your contact wants to do to this cult and wants to frame his master of being the leader(Light Side Points) or I could lie. I of course agree to do it and so ends that Revan story.... For now.


   Back to the class story now, Baras, unsuccessfuly not being able to break Grik Sonosan wants me to retrieved an ancient torture device from the Dark Temple called the Ravager. Soon after retirving it, He force it on Grik and he instantly start giving the answers. Girk tells us that their's a young padawan w/ the power to see corruption in people but to keep their identify secret, he doesn't know it's name and such before the Ravager clams his mind and life. Baras gives me my own ship in Fury as he orders me off to the next 2 planets to kill his spies to cover his tracks.

Now this padawan is interesting cause since I'm playing a Light Side Juggernaut. If I meet this character, will my light side play a major role in this and possibly become a Jedi?!?! Who knows...

Combat Side

   W/ my companion Vette, it makes leveling as a tank easier since we don't exactly put out the godlike DPS  (Damage Per Second). She pulls aggro off me pretty easily and their in lies one of my problems from 10 to 14 or 16. Juggernaut don't get any aggro ability till 14 in Soresu Form and 16 in Taunt. Having taunt at level 12 would of been fine to have for my 1st Flashpoint. I'm going mostly Immortal built so I'll be ready to tank and be effective in defending my teammate in PvP w/ the Guard ability. Speaking of PvP....

Player vs Player Side

   My Role in PvP is to be the shield of my teammates that need it, a distraction, and the Huttball Ball holder/defender.

   No World PvP at this level since we're to far apart so warzones will have to do. Huttball can be an awesome game when other players know what to do instead of killing the person w/o the ball. I have not play enough of the others, 1 is Attack and Defend while the other is Capture and Hold. My minor gripes are when I use guard on an teammate, we might get separated due to knockback or the terrain. I would like it that below the character's feet that an icon appears pointing you towards the person you guarded. The other is an option to turn off character titles or/and legacy name in PvP cause it can be confusing at times. My biggest however is class specific in Sith Warrior and Jedi Knight. Seeing as many class has Crowd Controlling abilities, we don't get none of that till level 24 so you will feel a bit under powered till then.

   PvPing can be a great resource for XP although slightly nerfed since beta and Credit. By doing this, you can out level an Zone/Planet in a few matches at early level at lease.

   I will also say this.. If you see a stats like this for a Juggernaut. Can you please vote for him/her for MVP cause we keeping your damage taken lowered by 50%. We want love =)

Anyways... Game CD just arrived.. time to play!

The Light Side Juggernaut

    Hey people and aliens if you out there in a galaxy far far away. Here's my series about my journey in SWTOR as a Light Side Juggernaut (Tank Advanced Class) on Nadd's Sarcophagus named Acedog. I started playing this on Day Zero (Day before launch) so I didn't get the benefit of the full week start so w/ that, lets began.

Korriban - Level 1 to11

Story Side

    The starting planet for sith force users. I'm introduce to Overseer Tremel, the man that call me to this planet because he sensed potential in me. He wants me to dethrown Vermin, a rival I never met from his master and stop his plans. I proceed to follow his orders through many stuff like Interrogating 3 different people in which you can kill all (Dark Side Answer), recruit 1 to work for the Sith (Light Side Answer), letting 1 rot in jail for his failure (Light Side Answer), or/and letting one free (Light Side Answer) but my superior wasn't pleased I let him walk out w/ knowledge of our planet. After doing 2 more things including killing a powerful elite beast solo before I'm summoned by Darth Baras. He see that I'm being rising up the ranks to fast and have undermined the required training progress and orders me to kill Tremel and bring back his hand as proof. I fight him but I told him I won't enjoy this before hand and then w/ him defeated, ready for the killing blow, I simply said I only need your hand. After he cut his left hand w/ his lightsaber he thank me and flee off the planet. Never to be heard of, who knows but I return to Darth Baras and he appoint me as his new apprentice and seeing my potentials. 

    He tells me in join the rest of the students in getting 3 shards from the ruins or I will die if failed. So I went and easily got the 3 shards then one of the last surviving students name Klemral so he attack me for the shards cause there is no rules in how you get them. After defeating him easily, he submit and pretty much see himself as a dead man but I took pity and gave him my shards (Light Side Answer) and got 3 more and return to Darth Baras w/ Vermin and Klemral. Baras see Klemral is not sith material and orders him to work w/ the dude in the prisoner room and Vermin gets extremely pissed after hearing he's not Baras favorite and is ordered back to his office for further instructions. I have one final mission and that is to use the Captured Twi'lek named Vette to find the hidden ruins and she  becomes my first companion character. We made our way to the tomb and unaware that Vermin is lurking in the shadows to kill me when Klemral quickly warned me before he struck (probably save me from being weakened before we fight) and Klemral dies for his effort. The fight against Vermin isn't a cakewalk at all, I died 1st try before beating him then told him he put up and valuated effort and anbody has to die over then but His sith pride would have none of that so i was force w/ killing him (gain Light Side point for not wanting to kill). I finally gain my lightsaber and meet w/ Baras and he is more then pleased w/ what I done on this planed and order me to head to Dromund Kaas (or what i like to call it Dark Kansas). 

Before I head there, I arrived on the Imperial Fleet which is basicly acting like an capital city in space. Their 3 ways to get to Kass but I'll be continue later.

Combat Side 

As a Sith Warrior, you will fall in love w/ Force Charge (lvl 3) and overall it's mostly satisfying. Just thing to note that the lack of a Combat Log really sucks. I like to see my damage input and damage taken cause I like to analyse it to better learn since I an going to be a tank. Me need to know what exactly hit me and stuff.

PvP wise, their is none till you hit 10 and then you'll have to do it in warzones.

_________________________________________________________________________________

Even tho I play this class quest twice during beta, I like where the Sith warrior story is heading. It's like a rise to power type who will do it either by any means necessary or/and by a more doing the helpful and smart thing. 

The Sith Warrior is voiced by Mark Bazeley and is it wrong that I love the way he says " Your Name...... NOW!"?

Stay tune for more of..... The Light Side Juggernaut!
