  1. What is EU? :"> <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Whoever said ignorance is blissful, they're right. "
  2. Cyan is lik an Aqua/Silvery-Blue but I havent seen a Bronze yet...whered u find it? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Random Loot System makes it impossible to answer that question. You can however keep reloading at the Dobo Bros shop on Telos Citadel Station until you get the color crystal of your choice.

  4. I still don't see what the problem with Naga Sadow's tomb being there is. The Sith would *undoubtedly* build the tomb for their Dark Lords the moment they became the Dark Lord. I mean, you didn't see them going "wait for us to build the tomb before we put Ragnos to rest" did you? No, the tomb was prepared for him *during his life*. Simply put, it was a tomb that wasn't used. Also the valley of the Dark Lords isn't just the bit we see in KotOR... you'll notice it extends further and also drops down into a deeper level where it extends for ages... it's not "two huge building" as you describe. Sure, it doesn't really look the same as in the comics but... *nothing* in KotOR "looks" right if we take what Tales of the Jedi made it out to be. The entire galaxy looked gothic and ancient which was pretty ridiculous when you think about it: I mean, sure it was set 4,000 years before the films, so the artists think "lets make everything look old", but the Republic and hyperspace travel had been in existance for about 20,000 years which doesn't suggest "ancient looking technology" to me. KotOR makes everything look more similar to the movies, which is probably more accurate in the grand scheme of things. Actually, KotOR changes a lot of the continuity to mesh more closely with the movies, which is something I really liked - and whilst it kept the names of people like Exar Kun and Ulic Qel-Droma in the background it's obvious that they'd changed the events and the characters themselves. The Sith War for example, was *nothing* like it was described in KotOR. In KotOR it seems like an actual war that involved hundreds of Jedi/Sith fighting each other and legions of troops facing each other down. Basically it seems like a proper war. In the comics, the war lasts like a couple of days. I've searched all the way through them to find points where I think "well a lot of time could have passed between here and here" but there are *none*. The war seriously lasts about a week at the most. Kun brainwashes 20 Jedi (out of HOW many in the galaxy?), who go on to only kill 8 Jedi Masters throughout the galaxy. Wow, how exceptional. As far as KotOR is concerned, he managed to corrupt hundreds, perhaps thousands of Jedi, considerably more awesome I think. Ulic Qel-Droma gets two armies beneath his command including all of the mandalorians and has *Mandalore* as his right-hand man, but he hardly attacks the *galaxy*. He just gets ****y and goes for Coruscant and gets pillaged by a group of 10 Jedi because he gets stabbed in the back by his Sith-squeeze. Sith technology is used to devastate a Ossus' surface. Admittedly, that's cool- then all the mandalorians and Ulic and Kun invade it to steal artifacts. Urm, and then Kun leaves, Ulic kills his brother and feels bad and tells the Jedi where Kun is. They all travel over there and do their "light blocking thang" - Kun sheds his body and his spirit gets trapped in a temple to await Luke Skywalker's Jedi Academy. Basically, KotOR makes Kun seem like a really powerful Dark Lord as he is always said to be, whilst the comics make him seem like a pansy who is always falling back on Sith technology to do his work for him. "use this amulet" "use this ship" "I'll use this big aritifact to drain all my warrior's life force and become a ghost" Also, he's just plain too stupid in the comics. So I'll take KotOR's interpreation of the "War of Exar Kun" over TotJs "The Sith War" (that wasn't even a war) any day. Though I do think we were cheated on not getting a proper Basilisk war-droid in KotOR2... and it breaks with KotOR 1 continuity (as has been said, Canderous said he "rode" his basilisk). But I can cope and when it comes right down to it- though I did enjoy TotJ (i mean, i've been using a screenname inspired by Ulic since i was about 12) i enjoy the KotORs much, much more and as far as I am concerned they are the *real* record of the stuff that happened in SW history. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Excellent points, Ulicus. Although I like TOTJ, I find it to be incoherent with its times: http://forums.obsidianent.com/index.php?showtopic=28729&hl=
  5. According to Bastila's revelation on the Leviathan he would have died. Exactly. Anakin suffered a worse fate and lived. He became Vader because he had a destiny to fulfill. Revan would have died on his ship if Bastila didn't save him. That should be proof alone that Vader is stronger than Revan. I actually think that she wasn't alone because I'm having a hard time imagining her lugging Revan's body throughout the exploding ship and finally loading him onto her craft by herself. Vader took enough lightning to kill him. Luke took enough lightning to survive. Vader killed the emperor even though he was weaker than Anakin. Vader thus fulfilled the Sith policy of Apprentice killing the Master. I personally think that the Force should be very abstract, and trying to saddle it with definitions just ruins its meaning. Can't deny that. I just hope Lucas does to Episode III what he did to II when he didn't even bring them up. To each his own. Maybe not as great as he was, but still great. On the piano? It would be extremely difficult. I doubt Vader had as much difficulty dueling. This thread is about Vader, Anakin's DS Sith name. If you're going to compare Revan to Vader, might as well compare them in the DS context because both of them fell to the DS. It's screwed up for me as well.
  6. Ah...a purist like myself. A lesser being would have said Jedi Knight IV. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> As long as its not an expansion pack like how JKIII (Dark Forces IV, purists!) was. "
  7. Could it be Mercenaries or Republic Commando?
  8. One more mistake: During the Sith War Exar Kun destroys the last Sith holocron. Suddenly there a lot of holocrons in Atris' chamber.
  9. Did you know that's from Episode I?
  10. The strike team? Bastila survived if you recall. She bound her life to Revan's so that he could survive. Without her he would have died. Anakin on the other hand fell into molten lava and survived. Guess which fate is worse. Palpatine wasn't distracted. If you remeber he stopped shooting lightning at Luke and began firing at Vader. Which is why Vader died in the first place. Maybe he needed Luke for emotional strength or whatever, but he killed the Emperor fair and square. I don't think of you as stupid. I was merely sarcastic. A good theory, but it's all speculation on your part. For all you know it could be bacteria living in your blood. Heh. A master pianist couldn't even play if he had his fingers chopped off. Atleast Vader can duel (pretty well I might add). A mediocre analogy at best. But Anakin fell to the Dark Side. He fell to the dark side more of necessity than anything. He never reached the level of thug. Whatever floats your boat
  11. Comparably, when he was inside the bridge of his ship. When you can throw around thermal detonators around in the Leviathan, the turbolaser blast couldn't do so much damage can it? When I last saw ROTJ it was Vader who killed the Emperor. Sure, they're the coolest idea ever. I love the way Lucas transformed the mystical energy field present in all living things to how many bacteria there are in your blood. I love the fact that you are predetermined how strong you are. To quote a very profilic (cough Volourn cough) poster on these forums: "R00fles!" Yup. Totally agree with you. That's why when Revan goes DS i love his replies, like: "Either I take your credits and then you die, or I kill you first then take the credits" Add Jedi Thug to that list.
  12. If there were a KOTOR 3, it should take place atleast 100 years after Revan and the Exile. As it was, KOTOR 1 left no room for continuity, and K2 left too many loose ends that will be impossible to tie up in a sequel. Ex: You can be LS and still kill Juhani or keep her in your party, and the same goes to Bastila. For all you know Revan could never have bought HK from the droid shop on Tatooine. I suggest a "clean slate" approach, with new characters and new/old planets. No more Revan and no more Exile.
  13. Anakin Skywalker was the strongest in the Force, yet his specialization was of the lightsaber. Sometimes even Force powers cannot defeat a lightsaber, as demonstrated when Windu defeats Palpatine unlike Yoda, who loses. Staying on topic... Malak: Confirmed Dark Jedi Guardian. He uses so many Force Jumps its not even funny. Revan: I tend to think of him as Guardian who spams Force powers like the Consular. He can then progress into a Jedi weaponmaster or Sith Marauder because of his lightsaber specialization. Exile: Probably a Jedi Guardian, but a Jedi Sentinel would work too.
  14. PC: We can choose aliens this time. Planets: Rhen Var Ziost (True Sith capital in TOTJ) Naga Sadow's Fortress Ossus (maybe) Taris Iridonia
  15. 4 GB is approximately how many songs?
  16. are you sure they are not decloacked assassins? (can't check eheh ) and also consider that maybe more soilder boarded tha harbringer after the ship was conquered. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> These Sith were wearing Trooper armor, not the cloaks of the Sith assassins. How could they have boarded the Harbinger when the Hawk and the Harbinger were the only ships on Peragus? Lord Soviet is right, its a continuity mistake.
  17. Go to the Sublevel Library where you first meet Disciple. Explore that room until a message says that you found a datapad saying that Vrook is in the Crystal Cave. Then you go to Crystal Cave. If you did all this and still no Vrook your game might be bugged. EDIT: What's the probability of 3 posters answering to the same topic at the same time?
  18. You have a good point, although pronouncing "colonel" as "kernel" ticks me Actually the American Chemical Society changed it in 1925. But you are right in other facts. But to imperatively decree that "aluminum" is right and "aluminium" is wrong is a small fallacy, considering that most of the world uses British English.
  19. Literally every dictionary I've checked has this spelling CLEARLY labeled as "Chiefly British." There is no i in the ending. It is aluminum not aluminium. I'm sure I could disect it a bit, but mreh. Maybe we should just conquer Britain because they don't bother to elect their royals, at all? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Be sure to check British dictionaries next time too, because they invented the language...just because Webster wanted to make corrections to the English language doesn't mean that the rest of the world follows American English.
  20. I hope Mike Gallo reads this, but I doubt he'll care. He'll probably worm his way out of the article by giving his standard escapist responses.
  21. Midichlorians don't exist. They never happened. The idea was dropped for Ep. 2 because Lucas realized it was crap.
  22. How so? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> 1) No more BAB problem 2) The most skills (with even 12 INT you can get 4/level) 3) Good VP/FP gain/level (8 VP, 6 FP) 4) A lot of feats (7 before Lv. 15, one less than Guardian) 5) Class power (Force Immunity) always active, unlike Force Jump (which kicks in only when you get a lightsaber)
  23. Anything with Sentinel is successful.
