What's your favourite form
Darth Mortis replied to AvenTrin's topic in Star Wars: General Discussion
If I remember corectly you have to learn Nimian before you can learn Juno (Or maybe that should be, you have to learn Nimian before any Jedi Master would consider teaching you Juno) I tend to stick with Shii-Cho for most battles, switching to Makashi for lightsabre fights. -
Atris takes the name Darth Traya during the Exiles fight with her-thats a Sith title/name.
-
Atris could also have sent the handmaidens off on a mission outside the academy, I would assume they had a ship stashed away somewhere since the Handmaiden managed to get to the station. (Although that does raise the interesting question as to where the ship was kept, since the only one in the hanger was the Ebon Hawk....)
-
Agreed, and Atton is meant to have precongition as well as you find out on the Harbringer.....although quite what use having two party members who have exactly the same power as the main char was meant to be is beyond me.
-
Enterprise was indeed cancaled, something to do with them spending around $5million per episode while not getting huge ratings.
-
I think someone pointed out that since Kreia had to heal Tobin and send him off to Nilias with the 'warning' about the Jedi academy, and since both missions on Duxn and Onderon are meant to be taking part at the sametime, Kreia shouldn't be avalible for the Duxn mission. After all she couldn't be in two places at the same time.
-
If I recall correctly you get warnings on Duxn twice (Before running into the bounty hunters, and later if you take on the Zagrak). Once on Onderon (Before you run into the second load of bounty hunters there). Once on Dantooine in the caves and at least once on Nar Shaddar just before you come face to face with the squid face in his lair. The Ability gives you a cut scene with a wavering border around it, rather than something that says 'Warning'. But like you said, it is mostly useless.
-
. I don't think that any mines you place inside Kunda will remain there after the cut scenes.
-
Maybe the Exile did ask that question....but Kreia made us all forget He is refuring to the Jedi councils desision to exile the, errm, exile in the way they did. More accuractly by failing to entertain the notion that maybe Revan and the Exile were correct to fight the Mandolorians rather than sitting back and waiting as the council did. The reason you never get to hear the rest of the conversation is because you were controling the character in question during that time. What they learned is what choice you made for them on Dxun-lightside or darkside when confrunting the Sith Lords. It was probably left out since you really wouldn't be hearing anything you didn't already know. This is one of a number if lines that are bonus diologe-According to the official guide if you complete the game twice-once as darkside and once as lightside on the third playthrough you get some extra lines of diologe. The line above is only said if you happen to be female on the third time you play the game after completeing it twice in this manner. The Hologram of Cath requires a very good influence with T3, seem to recall that you have to picked Reven as being female to get a message from him otherwise you get Bastila. I've never had him help with the fight against Visas though....its meant to be a hologram after all.

TSL Restoration Project: The Phantom Deadline
Darth Mortis replied to Aurora's topic in Star Wars: General Discussion
But I would assume slighly less nutritious. One question I did wonder about, and sorry if this has been asked, is if the Mod will work with the basic game patches you can get from LA? Or if it might require a reinstall? Not a major problem since the game keeps the save games during uninstall, but I was just wondering. On the same note does or will the mod contain the patched LA files? -
Deus ex Machina: the Will of The Force ...
Darth Mortis replied to metadigital's topic in Star Wars: General Discussion
To be more accurate Anakin brings balance to force not just by destroying the Sith, but also by destroying the Jedi order. As you noted; The same holds if one part becomes to strong. In the case of the force and light side verses dark-side, good verses evil, they require something to define them-namely each other. At the period of time shown before the clone wars the Jedi had, as far as they knew, eliminated the Sith. This led to them having nothing to measure themselves against. There are a number of instances where Jedi have done bad things fully beliving that they are good before the clone wars. In time the Jedi would have lost sight of what good and evil really were, leading them to become something far worse than any sith lord-namely a group of very powerful individuals who would be capable of doing anything and fully convinced that they were doing good. What strikes me as interesting is that the will of the force might be a side-effect of what it is. Yoda explains it as an energy field that passes though, surrounds and nurtures life. Kreia notes that echos can be left in it. Both lead me to wonder if the will of the force is really down to the force itself, or if it is a side effect of it passing through living beings and being in some cases altered by passing though living creatures. What is called the will of the force could in fact be the echos of all the living creatures that the force passes though. This could explain the reason the force is divided into light and darksides-Lightside; creating life, nurturing it and living peacefully. Darkside; Control, power destroying perceved threats. In both cases these are basic drives that all living things have-to create life and live peacefully, while at the same time having the ability and drive to control whats around you and remove threats in order to survive. It might also help explain why Anakin brough Balence to the force. If one side gets to powerful it would start to affect the way the force affects living things-even if they are not force sensitive. If the lightside gets to powerful them creatures may start to become less able to fight for their own survival and die out (And if the force is sustained by living creatures this is a bad thing). By the same measure if the dark side becomes to powerful creatures become to willing to fight, killing each other with the same end result-no life, no force. If the force does have a will, that will would be related to life and keeping it alive. The best way to do this would be to keep a middle or grey area. The best way to keep life alive is for it to stay as peaceful as posible, while at the same time maintaining its willingness to fight when it has to. After all a lion that stops killing Wilderbeast on moral grounds would starve to death. -

Best Star Wars Game Created
Darth Mortis replied to Darth Rexon's topic in Star Wars: General Discussion
Yes you can, the X-Wing fighter collection includes both X-Wing and Tie Fighter, both will run on windows XP. -
I think you might be refuring to the Handmaiden rather than Disciple. If you compleate the game twice, once as Dark Side and once as lightside, then there are some extra lines of diolog in the game. I know one of them is you can get the Handmaiden to recite some Echani poetry....or at least thats what I heard. Never heard of Disciple doing the same though.
-
Jinger means making them at a lab bench-Kreia's class (Consular) and high wisdom score means that she tends to have the highest first aid skill of anyone in your party.

".....Jab him with a Bothan stunner, cuff him and starve him for a few days...Then Check to see if his bounty has increased..." -Mira to either a Female Exile, or the Handmaiden on understanding men. I really don't want to know what she does on the second date..... "Just because I saved her life doesn't mean I'm about to charge her up the boarding ramp" -(Male) Exile to Kreia, talking about Visas. "There are somethings I will not do, even for you" -Visas if you ask her to dance for a Voga the hut
-
"Come on, let me shoot him in the back, no one has to know" "Atton restrain yourself, besides a nerve strike will incapasitate him without lasting damage" -Atton and Handmaiden on Nar Shaddar at almost loseing the Ebon Hawk. (Note-I'm quoting from memory, so that might not be exactly whats said)
-
True, but since Kreia was once a historian she might well have had access to the Jedi Archives. If she was high enough in the Jedi order her access could have included information about Force powers not normally used by the Jedi-such as Morichro. I'd be wary about using what Kreia did to Atton (Or for that matter anyone else) as an example of forbidden knowledge, She was after all a Sith Lord at one time and would have picked up a lot of dark side powers during that time.
-
I think Kreia only wanted the death of the force after she was exiled for the second time, not when she was training Jedi. But if anyone knows otherwise I'd be interested in knowing.
-
My style tends to be LS defensive.
-
I think the implication was that all of Krieas former students joined Revan in the Mandolorian wars. It was, or is, stated that of all the Jedi who joined Revan in the Mandolorian war only the Exile went back to face the Jedi Council, and didn't Join Revan as a Sith during the Civil war.

Need Help @ Polar-Telos
Darth Mortis replied to MintyMadness's topic in Star Wars: General Discussion
It is the dialogue choice you pick when you enter the academy that results in this glitch. The way around it is to pick the "who are you?" dialogue option when the handmaiden's challange you, then "ok, I didn't come here to fight". -
But does a Sith really gain any freedom? As with real life power tends to corrupt, no matter how noble your intentions are when you gain-or set out to gain-power. There is always a point at which power becomes a means into itself. Instead of having any freedom all your actions start to revolve around power, gaining more and keeping hold of whatever power you already have. Anything that you think challanges your power, be it a rival or just a friend who disagrees with you, becomes something to be crushed or subjegated. It is a paradox that while the Sith believe that "The force shall free me" any power they gain limits their freedom. For example owning a car gives you freedom of sorts but at the same time it limits you-you have to pay for fuel, insurance road tax etc leaving you with less money to do things with.

Since Kreia believes in viewing as many aspects of the force as she can it would make sense if she studied many different areas when she was a Jedi. It would also make sense if Jedi Masters who where given Padawans to train would first have to show a good knowledge of all Jedi abilities so they can pass the basics on, and I would guess that a historian might also need to have a fair range of knowledge too. So Kreia could know these healing abilities without having been a healer as such. Personally I'd never considered Kreia to be a healer, but then again I have no problem with the idea she once was. It's an interesting thought, and could explain how Scon learnt to stay alive-he could have been using a dark side form of some Jedi healing skills (Kreia was his master at some point, so he could have learnt the ability from her).
