TheHutt Posted October 31, 2004 Share Posted October 31, 2004 Not only can you use your fists, but there are some new weapons as shown as kotor2.com. The poisonous darts look interesting. I wonder whether they are shot from a primative blow gun or one of the ammunition for the wrist-mounted rocket launcher used by Mira. Personally, I think it would be fun going through the game using a lance or gamorrean axe. If anyone knows any other weapons not shown on KOTOR2.. feel free to post it in this thread.

Jeo Posted November 1, 2004 Share Posted November 1, 2004 It's a star wars game, and your main character is a jedi (of sith). So heck it's just gonna be a lightsaber, and my party members will also be lightsaber wielding force users (if not --> vibroblades), just like in the first KOTOR. I don't like the ranged weapons so much, the melee combat is one of the many great things about KOTOR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The man in the iron mask Posted November 1, 2004 Share Posted November 1, 2004 I'll probably be using various melee weapons until I get a lightsaber, then just use that. I find that ranged weapons in KotOR just aren't worth it. They don't do that much damamge, and you miss much more often than with melee combat. It's also much cooler to have a lightsaber dual face-to-face than a blaster shootout across the room, when you're both just standing there. Live forever or die trying.

The Yeti of 66 Posted November 1, 2004 Share Posted November 1, 2004 I'll use a vibroblade until I get my lightsabre, then all will fall at me feet laddies!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LORD GRAVEN Posted November 1, 2004 Share Posted November 1, 2004 id love to use a deathscythe possibly made by ancient sith, so it can compete with a lightsaber, perhaps there will be some ancient sith blades, septors and other neat items to find on korriban " Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Yeti of 66 Posted November 1, 2004 Share Posted November 1, 2004 Ah....with only the slightest twist of fate there would be lightsythes instead. Then somebody would say they want a sabre. Can you imagine? Luke: Well what is it? Ben: It's you father's lightsythe. It's a reapers weapon....not as clumsy or random as a blaster for a more...........brutal age......your too old to use it now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheHutt Posted November 1, 2004 Author Share Posted November 1, 2004 The thing is... not only now are you still encouraged to use lightsabres... but the fact that there are so many new melee/range and hand-to-hand combat options suggest you can play the game differently for once. I mean if you've played lightsabre 50+ times in a row? Why not take a shot at something new. I know for sure I am makin a monk at least once.

He could also raise the enemies you kill in Mandalorian wars to do his bidding. GRrrrrrr >< Now I want to be a Sith Underlord. DAMN YOU!!! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LORD GRAVEN Posted November 1, 2004 Share Posted November 1, 2004 hey yeti i really liked your reaper joke lol. speaking of tripple bladed sabres and light scythes, why stop there light seis i think you spell it like that, light spears, light trident, dual light trident, light axes lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaguars4ever Posted November 1, 2004 Share Posted November 1, 2004 As I was holding off levels at lvl 2 on K1, I was toting around with Zalbaar's Bowcaster until the distance was closed down...after which I'd whip out my trustly Prototype Vibroblade. Ah...Taris - good times, good times. *sigh* Since you already start off as a Jedi in K2, there's no point to holding off levels so it will be: vibroblade--->vibrosword ---->lighsaber.

Salsabettis Posted November 1, 2004 Share Posted November 1, 2004 I think I might try some unarmed for an NPC and if that doesn't work use a blade or a ranged weapon depending on who it is. For my character, I will most likely go the same route as Jaguars4ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Sun_Tzu Posted November 1, 2004 Share Posted November 1, 2004 I'll certainly be giving the unarmed combat feats a go. Another great idea by the people who brought you beer milkshakes!

envida Posted November 1, 2004 Share Posted November 1, 2004 Maybe there will be some shields you can put on your arms to stop vibroblades and lightsabers, you would need something or else they would just slice straight through you? But would be fun to kick some ****y sith wannabies with your bare hands while they are trying to wield their lightsabers just to show how powerful you are Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaguars4ever Posted November 1, 2004 Share Posted November 1, 2004 I'll certainly be giving the unarmed combat feats a go. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Indeed. I've always wanted to Sith slap some Selkath cheek flaps... :ph34r: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rika Posted November 1, 2004 Share Posted November 1, 2004 I'll probably stick to light sabres... I can't imagine trying to take a huge monster - like the one shown in the one of the screen caps - with your bare hands! I mean, you would need a berserker rage and strength to pummel that thing.

Catalyst Posted November 1, 2004 Share Posted November 1, 2004 I'll probably do the same as I did in KotOR and use vibroblades and vibroswords till I get my hands on a lightsaber. Melee combat is far better, especially with all the new animations (I hope). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Yeti of 66 Posted November 1, 2004 Share Posted November 1, 2004 Good god. Why unarmed? This isn't NWN or BG or anything of the sort. If you use your fists in the SW universe you'll get your arms, legs and god knows what else chopped off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
