Ioini Posted November 23, 2005 Share Posted November 23, 2005 To me it's a tie, Handmaiden is the best unarmed fighter but Disciple is like a portable lab station and is the best at close combat. The only issue with Disciple is that when you jedify him, he becomes a Jedi Consular when he is a Soilder. So I'll say Handmaiden. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vaxen83 Posted November 23, 2005 Share Posted November 23, 2005 Sort of like the Handmaiden . A PC can learn Battle Precognition from her. (If playing as a Consular, it helps together with dueling feats) Defence with finesse lightsabers is increased if dexterity is raised apart from wisdom . Deep from within...

Janmanden Posted November 23, 2005 Share Posted November 23, 2005 Besides adding a lot of content and being a generally keen eye, he's pretty handy as battlesupport. Nothing worse than having allies obstructing force jump paths. Better suited in the background. Depends on style, but I prefer having disciple(s)...

Krookie Posted November 23, 2005 Share Posted November 23, 2005 Disciple is a good character. He can be made into a Jedi very early in the game, so you don't really have to worry about holding back his levels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Petay Posted November 23, 2005 Share Posted November 23, 2005 I agree with Ioini, Dark Angle, it helps to read the beginning of a thread before posting in it, so you actually have a rough idea what it is about... On-topic though, i would definatly agree that Handmaiden is a heck of a lot better than Disciple, but that's probably mainly because she was one of my personal favourites in the game, she is pretty damn good at melee, and as a jedi too...

Flipside Posted November 23, 2005 Share Posted November 23, 2005 Probably Handmaiden.I haven't used Disciple much (the only thing that i liked about him is that he can be turned into a Jedi pretty fast) ,as for the handmaiden she was good in melee and a nice sparing partner "I'm pretty sure if they took all the porn off the internet there'd only be one site left, and it'd be called 'Bring back the porn'" - Perry Cox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LadyCrimson Posted November 23, 2005 Share Posted November 23, 2005 Disciple. I just level up him up a few to several levels for more melee feats first (to lvl 12-13 or something) and then jedify him. He doesn't need maxxed/pumped up Force powers since...well...he rarely uses them unelss I'm not in the lead. And even without those extra Jedi levels his Force lightning ends up being just fine. He makes a great tank that way, still has decent Jedi powers, and the medical abilities. That, and I don't like playing as a male in this game, so Handmaiden isn't an option. “Things are as they are.

Tha Cunnysmythe Posted November 23, 2005 Share Posted November 23, 2005 Handmaiden. She makes a nice guardian. With Disciple, I already have a consular and I don't need a labstation. Ever. Plus, I hate him. He grates and irritates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vashanti Posted November 23, 2005 Share Posted November 23, 2005 (edited) Since I enjoy playing a male, I prefer Handmaiden ... but it's also because of what was highlighted earlier: I like to use Consulars/Jedi Masters/Sith Lords (mmm Force powers), and she's capable of teaching that great +WIS to Defense thing. I've played females, LS and DS, and used Disciple before... just wasn't as impressive to me. Edited November 23, 2005 by Vashanti Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gabrielle Posted November 24, 2005 Share Posted November 24, 2005 Handmaiden by far. But since I usually always play female, I don't get her, I'm stuck with that sissy Disciple. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kor Qel Droma Posted November 24, 2005 Share Posted November 24, 2005 I preferred the Handmaiden, I thought she was fairly decent if you left her unarmed. But I did have a fair bit of fun by sending Disciple in for the first attack while my other players would activate their sheilds, force powers, etc. But somehow he managed to stay alive most of the time. Jaguars4ever is still alive. No word of a lie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bulgarian Jedi Posted November 24, 2005 Share Posted November 24, 2005 Both characters have a lot of similarities, but the superior one, in my opinion is, the handmaiden. Her dialoges are slightly more interesting and the sparring matches with her are a nice addition to the character, but the real advantages of having her is that she teaches you a really useful force power, not to mention you get her as a party member earlier than the disciple. The disciple unique abilities are fairy useful, but in the later game they are almost useless. Still, I like that he is a combination of a soldier and a consular. Нека Силата винаги бъде с теб!

Styur Voln Posted November 24, 2005 Share Posted November 24, 2005 My favourite's Handmaiden, but only cos ive never been the Disciple and he looks like someone i know and would like to forget. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gabrielle Posted November 24, 2005 Share Posted November 24, 2005 Disciple is a forgettable person. They should have made Atton or Bao-dur a romance option instead of him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bulgarian Jedi Posted November 24, 2005 Share Posted November 24, 2005 Atton IS a romancable options for a female player. Bao-Dus is not. Нека Силата винаги бъде с теб!

Let's just say that now I know how women feel when guys try to use their cheesy and/or sleezy pick up lines on them. EDIT: The force thingy you can learn from Handmaiden rules.

Yes, I was rather disappointed that the guys got to 'spar' with their honey while us girls got nothing but "Yes? Is something wrong?" “Things are as they are.

Tha Cunnysmythe Posted November 25, 2005 Share Posted November 25, 2005 I think that's as far as the cut content let you go. In the full ending, he was going to sacrifice himself to save you from Lord Sion while confessing his love to you. There's a conversation in the coding to that effect.

Gorth Posted November 25, 2005 Share Posted November 25, 2005 I prefer Disciple. The only character out there who can use some of those 27+ heavy armours you end up with. I avoid turning him into a jedi, so he and Mandalore can specialise in and use some of those nice high powered rifles that you get/customise “He who joyfully marches to music in rank and file has already earned my contempt.

14884_1556103668 Posted November 25, 2005 Share Posted November 25, 2005 Sorry, for me it is the Disciple. Once he is Jedified, he is brilliant in combat, plus you recover force points through meditation with him. Have to confess to not using him much at all as a lab station, lol...although he is always the main member I take in my party I bet some of you female kotor players would hope to spar with Disciple and teach you battle precongtion. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Now that would have been nice. Seems us girls don't get that much fun, LOL <_< Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
