Dueling or Two-Weapon Fighting?
Blasters
>>335016450
Always use flurry.
force lightning for UNLIMITED POWER
Dual lightsabers and flurry spam wins every fight.
>>335016450
i think two-weapon is shit in the 1st game if i recall correctly. Also, make Bastila your buffs bitch
you'll deal more than enough damage with dueling in both games
two sabers or double bladed sabers look retarded as shit
>>335016506
>>335016619
>>335016681
Is Flurry really that good?
>>335017362
the others are just shit in comparison
>>335017362
yes
>>335017407
>>335017618
I always thought it was shit since it lowers your defense
Depends. Do you want to be a jedi or a edgy faggot episode 2 dual wielding asshole
>>335017638
late game you kill things before they can hit you, if it's really a problem use jedi defence buffs
>>335016450
2 sabers, obviously
>>335016450
Two-Weapon. and by two i mean two sabers and not that stupid dubble saber.
flurry all the way
>>335018630
also force speed. enjoy beating the game.
>>335017362
Yes, but crit is much more fun.
Should I always have a short-saber equipped in the off hand slot or should I use a standard saber once I have Two Weapon Mastery?
>>335018882
short
>>335016450

Nice goggles senpai
>>335018630
If you have two sabers you get more stats. Ultimately the better choice.
>>335016450
Scoundrel, sneak attack, throw away lightsabres, force stun + dual blasters forever.
Works wonders in Kotor 1 but fails miserably in Kotor 2. Everything resists force stun in 2.
two weapons = more crystals = more bonuses
>>335016450
In 1 it's two-weapon flurry spam, in 2 it's force storm spam.
>>335020328
I'm glad you like them. Many Bothans died to get my those goggles.
Kinda wanna try out going full blasters in my next playthrough.
I guess some lightsaber boss fights fuck me over, but at least there's some challenge over going full Force Speed flurry spam.
I just recently started to replay KOTOR after getting it from humble bundle. I did play the both KOTOR games on xbox back in the days, but I didn't follow the story at all because I was a stupid idiot.
Story has been so far prettyshit, typical Bioware quality, but at least I'm having fun with getting comfy in my own spess ship. I also for the first time made a scoundrel character and not some macho Rambo I always do in this type of games. I'm trying to roleplay a scumbag with a heart of gold.
>>335016450
Saberstaff.
>>335020773
Good choice, bruv'nor. Get as much experience as you can on the first world, you won't be able to level up Sneak Attack once the game forces a class change upon you. Sorry for the minor unspoilered spoiler, but it is best that you know.
Did anyone manage to beat kotor 2? No matter how much I try I eventually just run into a game breaking bug that makes me unable to complete it. I got all the fan made patches and shit and managed to finally get to the end of the game. And suprise, It fucking bugs out again, fuck this game fuck it so hard but enjoy the first one op, it's a masterpiece.
>game is set 4000 years before the original movies
>technology is pretty much the same
Did the technology just start stagnate at some point? Also, are there any full head helmets in the game ala Boba Fett? I hate those stupid visors that look like retarded version of oculus rift.
>>335021153
What is the game breaking bug? I remember KOTOR 1 having one statless thus useless item somewhere in the game which was then later announced as bug.
>>335021153
>Did anyone manage to beat kotor 2?
countless times on my pre-steam copy, and twice more last summer after the steam version got that swanky new update.
ban check
>>335021306
>>335021308
I've had several bugs, one where my characters speed up sanic fast and I can barely play the game, triggers that refuse to happen, or just the game crashing. I got to the ravager ship or whatever but it keeps fucking crashing or triggers keep failing. I've replayed it so many times now and I'm going to give up. I'll just look up the ending on yt or something...
>>335021191
I mean the time scale of the universe is insane. I think in the game the hyperdrive was discovered 10k years ago. Plus, historically I think there's MAD scenarios throughout the lore where the galaxy loses tech and rebuilds.
I'm just talking out my ass but I'm sure a Star Wars fag will know.
>tfw there will never be a game like KOTOR set in the original trilogy
I just want to shoot stormtroopers and see original trilogy related views.
>>335021191
I think it just got to the point where most things were as good as they could get which is why tech slowed down alot.
>>335021536
Swtor is pretty good now days. It gets monthly content and story updates and a dev was talking today about how much they have planned.
In fact the latest story chapter is some of the best star wars story telling I have seen.
>Wow, that was close! I almost got my skin burned off by those blasters!
>Heh, that would be something
>Yeah, imagine if you had to wear some protective robot suit for the rest of your life that made your breathing sound lie wheezing and huffing
Seriously, Bioware?
>>335021431
are you using a really old copy or some weird mods or something? even when i playerd kotor 2 ages ago before the new steam version i never hit anything like that.
>>335017362
depends on the game and whether or not you use master speed
>If only we had a some kind of planet size super weapon
>We could literally blow up the planets that oppose us!
Are you fucking kidding me BioWare?.
>>335021860
This is my third time playing and also the furthest I ever got with the game. I've tried vanilla with patches, unnoficial patches and now I was playing with some restored content patch. I'm just unlucky I guess
>>335021935
>>335021781
is this from TOR?
>>335020381
>>335020471
Wrong. The double saber is superior because crystal augments affect both sabers, and the best crystals in the game are unique, and you only get one of each
>>335017709
Sounds boring.
>>335022063
Double lightsaber has 20/20 crit
dualwielding lightsaber + short lightsaber gives better damage and crit rolls also more slots to pop in stat boosting gems.
More damage because 2 upgraded lightsabers do more than 1 double lightsaber upgraded
>>335021191
What would a Star Wars game be without such classic Star Wars helmets like Boba Fett's Star Wars T-Visor or the Clone/Storm Troopers Star Wars Trooper helmets? Here you go, Han. I found you exactly the Star Wars helmet you were looking for.
>>335016450
Dueling was with one saber right? I used to like that the most. Two-Weapon is cool as is double bladed saber. Still preferred a single saber.
How has this game, Kotor 1-2 held up? Is it superior to ME series?
Kotor 2
>Dual sabers with every upgrade and crystal geared toward damage.
>Lens is 2-12 on its own
>master flurry for 3 hits a turn at 40-60 each
>master speed for that extra hit
>game on easy mode
>>335022164
> also more slots to pop in stat boosting gems.
Except the two blades from the double saber gets the benefits of your two best crystals whereas if you'r going two sabers, you're forced to use weaker crystals to fill the remaining slots. More slots != superior.
As for the crits idk if it makes that much of a difference, I can't recall exact stats though. Also the short saber does less damage than a normal saber, I'm sure.
>>335021781
topkek quality writing
>>335022424
flurry and master speed don't stack fampai
power attack for them one round 300+ dmg attacks
>>335022425
we talking kotor 1 or 2 now? in kotor 2 double bladed lightsaber definitely falls off against 2 upgraded lightsabers dualwielded but in kotor 1 I need to check up on the math before I can be certain
>>335022078
dw, unless you've played the game before, Malak is challenging.
>>335023156
OP's pic is KOTOR 1, so i'm assuming we're talking about KOTOR 1
>>335022424
just use force lightning on everything. it doesnt matter how many people you are fighting, they all die together
>>335024817
What the fuck
>>335016450
The game isn't that hard, just choose the one that suits your aesthetic preferences better.

wait i thought single lightsaber and spamming critical strike in every 2-3 normal attacks was the best?
i like this game, it's a nice game
am i doing this wrong
>>335027934
>Scoundrel
>playing with Steam controller
>have to be connected online just to use it
All I want to do is play a classic RPG on a controller. For fuck's sake Bioware, release an update for this game already. Obsidian did it, why can't you?
>>335028023
best starting class, they get lockpicking and persuasion
>>335021191
Yes actually. Technology and civilization in the star wars universe had reached the point of stagnation thousands of years before the movies. Its the entire reason why Revan even attacked the republic. To revitalize it and strengthen it.
The Republic is basically Rome if it never fell and just continued on into becoming more corrupt and bureaucratic over a few thousand years.
>>335028527
Fuck, I rolled a scout. goddamnit.
>>335021191
Star Wars is fantasy, not sci fi, tech usually stays about the same.
>>335028710
to be fair, the starting class doesn't matter much since you want to level up as little as humanly possible until you become a Jedi.
>>335017362
power attack is the best if you're using master speed and dual/double sided weapons

>>335020176
I always hated the headgear in Old Republic it stuck out too much. Just look at that shit on Mission's face.
>>335020176
>>335028936
one of filefronts most popular KOTOR mods was a mod that made all the headgear invisible.I wonder how the modellers for the headgear feel about that?
>>335016596

a friend of mine played them for the first time recently andshereally enjoyed them despite their agefirst time i've ever witnessed a grill play a game from start to finish with no help from anyone. my dick is diamonds

>>335016450
I always use dueling because it looks better

Dual-bladed saberd make wooshy sounds though.
Also if I remember correctly, the game is glitched, dual-bladed have no proficiency penalties while dual wielding does. So you're immediately kickass with one the moment you pick it up.if you're having trouble with the old man duelist on Taris, buy the dual-bladed sword from the black vendor chick.
I haven't played KotOR 1 in so long. I tried a few months ago, but Taris is too boring for me. Make me replay KotOR /v/
>>335021701
I just wish the story wasn't telling me to play a Jedi Knight every chapter. They have the worst story in the game, it's all typical Bioware slock. My Agent doesn't need the Force but nope have to train like one.
>>335027934
>8 levels of scoundrel
Incredibly wrong
>>335024817
Not even mad about the saber copters, CW and Rebels have to appeal to children. I'm just sick of seeing Maul. He's a terrible one dimensional character and trying to make him a thing needs to stop.
>>335030849
if taris bores you, you're doing it wrong. Do the 1v1 arena and swoop racing.
>>335016450
What does /v/ think of http://www.apeirongame.com/
?
>>335031107
Wish it was 2
I heard this game is pretty buggy on PC.
Are there a fixes for it?
>>335031107
the outdoor areas look nice but the indoor assets don't look very star warsy.
and what >>335031228 said
>>335016450
who cares, this games combat system is utter wank anyway and you will be spamming flurry either way.
why the fuck does /v/ even like this virtual novel
Crit is really good in 2 because of the fantastic crystals that can extend your critical threat range by a ton
>>335031270
The first one has relatively almost no bugs
