The Eternal Twins (Arcann and Thexan)

The Eternal Twins first appeared in 2015's Star Wars: The Old Republic: Knights of the Fallen Empire. These Force-sensitive brothers were trained from childhood to be warriors by their father, Emperor Valkorion (or Vitiate, as he's known to the Old Sith).

The bulk of SWTOR is solo friendly story content, and it's been made so easy it isn't fun or satisfying anymore. You used to need to learn your class a bit, and leveling or equipping better gear actually felt like progression, but now you can go have a snack while your companion solos quest bosses.

Seen a lot of discussion around the ~2650 accuracy being the golden number to hit 110%. Pre-7.0 this was pretty well laid out in the character sheet and was the number you shot for if you wanted that amount of accuracy.

Being a polearm user has its benefits too, like having Dragon's Bane or Deathmatch as amazing 4-star weapon options. Here are a couple more reasons why you should pull for Hu Tao: You need a DPS character to carry you into endgame content. You don't have a strong Pyro character yet (No, not Amber)

Xingqiu is regarded as one of the highest damage dealers in the entire game. He works well with Cryo characters, such as Chongyun. Xingqiu also works excellently with Pyro characters, such as Diluc, Xiangling, or Bennett.

Gungi was a male Wookiee Jedi Padawan who trained to become a Jedi in the Jedi Order during the Clone Wars.

Revan was all classes. Skilled in the way of the lightsaber, a powerful force user and having an admiration for droids. He was literally all the classes combined.

In his prime, Revan was an unstoppable force on the battlefield, skilled in multiple forms of lightsaber combat, and regarded by many as the greatest warrior of his age. He accumulated respect from a vast range of different cultures from the Mandalorians to the Echani—the Rakata to the ancient Sith.

Each character has their own unique story to share with you. However, what the game doesn't tell you right off the bat is that you can actually romance characters in KOTOR. While lacking the cinematic flair of romance in games today, romancing someone in KOTOR is a satisfying experience nevertheless.

Romance. If the Jedi Knight player character is male, the player can choose to have a romance with Kira and can eventually marry her. Initiating a romance will affect dialogue in certain story missions.

I've seen this mentioned as a difficult mission and for a long time I was too intimidated to try it. You need it for the Section X dailies, and while it originally required a group, it can be soloed now.

Can you solo master mode Swtor? ›

You will be able to solo Master Mode Red Reaper (MM RR) with basic 306 gear, decent mods, and a few augments. Z0-0M is your best healing option, but any rank 50 companion set to healing will do. As stealth, each run takes ~12 – 16 minutes. You will receive 300 – 400 Tech Fragments per run.

In the original Sith Warrior class storyline, male player characters can romance her and later marry her, but if both the player and Jaesa are aligned to the dark side of the Force.

Darth Hexid, while non-romanceable, has a similar fun personality to Jaesa's. It's unfortunate that none of the other (vanilla) companions in the game, notably the other force apprentices, can be influenced the way Jaesa can be influenced.

In general higher DPS is better. However, It won't factor in things like crit chance and crit damage bonuses, which can drastically impact how much real damage you deal in a fight.

Players can use additional blue veteran mode tokens and credits to upgrade their gear pieces to a maximum item rating of 340.

Vanguards are better by far than Guardians/Sentinels/Shadows/Scoundrels at 30m range, but they'll never beat Gunslingers/Sages/Commandos. If you want a ranged class, play a Commando. If you want a melee class with some ranged flexibility, play a Vanguard.

There is no limit or requirement of which class you should play first. Some classes are considered to be closer to what BioWare might consider the SWTOR Canon storyline. The Jedi Knight origin class story is considered to be the main storyline of the game.

The MG42 is by far the strongest LMG in the game right now. It boasts the highest fire rate of any gun in the game at a whopping 1034.5 RPM (that's 17.24 shots per second), and it is very controllable as well, with the lowest horizontal recoil of any LMG.

It could withstand anything from laser fire to a bomb blast. Troopers attached to Special Forces were known to be issued BT-7 Thunderclap rapid assault ships. With training and proper use of these powerful weapons at their disposal, the Republic troopers were an elite force to be reckoned with in combat.
