  1. Kreia all the way. She's not a lovely person, more like a major bith if you know what I mean, but she's a hell of a character. I love a smart, proud, powerful old woman who turns people around her little finger. And she's more knowledgeable and educational than any Master has ever been shown to be, except maybe Arca Jeth.

     

    Onderon gets the cake, I think. What with the civil war, the Dxun moon and everything, and I really liked how it was made pivotal to the Republic. Via Katarr, Nihilus enters Republic space undetected, with the Jedi and the Miralukas not being a factor, then he allies himself with the Onderon Separatists, aiding them in breaking away from the Republic so that Onderon would become a staging ground for the Sith. In a startling turn of events, the Peragus Mining Facility is destroyed, restoration efforts throughout the Outer Rim are doomed, and secessionist movements get out of hand. Ithorian efforts get chocked by the Republic blockade and Czerka starts gaining the upper hand in contract negotiations. Republic spies such as Xaart struggle to get information to the senators who staked their careers in the rebuilding of Telos. Boy, were it not for the Exile, the Republic would've had no chance to survive.

  2. I think the implication-at least for cannon Revan-is that T3 was sent off on the Hawk to find help for Revan.
    Now the question is how does that click into place? Revan left the Hawk on Malachor, could T3 fly it through mass shadows? Could Kreia? Did T3 wait for Kreia or just happened to pass by when she was cast out? How exactly did T3 find the Exile?
  3. The Sith Lords is about Kreia, and the Exile. Kreia was Revan's first master, the one the Jedi Council held responsible for his fall, and that of many others. She was exiled and joined Revan in the Mandalorian Wars, until she was lost trace of and thought to be a casualty. She spent years in Trayus Academy under the Sith alias Darth Traya, learning the ancient mysteries of the Sith, and studying the echo in the Force that the Exile created on Malachor V as she severed her connection to the Force. Kreia sought to understand how one could turn away from such power, give up the Force and still live, and she did. Eventually she was betrayed by her apprentices, stripped of her power, and cast out.

     

    "No Jedi ever made the choice you did. To sever ties so completely, so utterly, that it leaves a wound in the Force."

    "There is no truth in the Force. But there is truth in you, Exile. And that is why I chose you."

     

  4. Well you are forgetting about Revan's strengths and Nihilus's weakness.
    No, I'm only saying that that doesn't matter, one who would harm Nihilus must fly beneath the radar, Kreia alone could do that, because the Force had been stripped from her, and she knew how to mask her presence.
    Revan can use his emotion in the similar to how Atton uses his emotions to shield his thoughts.
    Yes, but that was not enough as I recall
  5. Revan rather set a trap to make Nihilus weaker and So he can have a chance against him.
    Yeah, but no trick of Revan's would fool Nihilus, not because he's smarter than Revan, but because he would feel it. Kreia could do it because the Force had been stripped from her. Like Master Vrook says, there are techniques in the Force that hide one's presence and thoughts, but such techniques alone would not be enough to cloak one such as Kreia, or Revan. I don't think Revan would have fared well against big black.
  6. Soldier-consulars are strong, and among the Exile's apprentices Disciple is an unmatched lightsaber fighter, he's got Superior focus II, but you can't see it in the ability panel,

    it's because he had some Jedi training as a kid back at the academy on Dantooine

  7. Could someone perhaps post a Darkside influence guide? Thanks
    • If you're playing for the first times, I'd say just treat them as you will, and don't change your attitude towards them, eventually you'll gain or lose enough influence to train them in the ways of the Force, them being evil, good or neutral.
    • If you're evil, act good when you've got good guys along (Bao-Dur, Handmaiden, Disciple, T3) and never kill people in front of them. If you're good, you have to be equally careful but you can train Dark Jedi if you've got low influence with them.
    • You can lose influence with Handmaiden and still not be able to train her if you have much higher influence with Visas.
    • There's plenty of occasions for influence shifts, you must recognize the pattern in your companions' reactions and act upon it.

    "They echo you, either fighting or surrendering to their feelings, their loyalty, their duty. Your mere presence serves as an example to them - of something to uphold, or something to fight against

  8. Good cutscenes really help this, with malak ordering waves against you, really helps to spur you on to kill him. Confrontation with Bastila (LS) is good, particularly as it separates you from your companions, leaving the battle with Malak a 1 on 1 affair.
    My thoughts exactly. I like Malachor, but the SF is just better, it had a clear plan to it, Master Vandar and Admiral Dodonna take on the Sith fleet as you dock with the station, stop Bastila, and kill your way to Malak. After that, the Sith are routed and the Star Forge destroyed, on Malachor there's too little going on and it ends in a "to be continued" fashion that nobody's ever liked. If you ask me, they should have focused on the Ravager and the battle of Telos, with Carth and the Republic, the Mandalorians and everything, that is the SF of TSL, Malachor is just a private business between master and apprentice, something to settle before journeying to the unknown regions.
  9. If i were Lucas i'd order an development of KotOR 3, and then just stay out of the way. On some deserted island.
    Right, sometimes I think he must be sick of making this stuff and that's why things turn to crap, it could be far worse though, we'd probably have rancor Jedi with lightsabers and everything if it wasn't for Lucas and LucasArts.
