by Erik Fasterius,

The Soldier and Jedi Guardian seems to be the solid choice. Aim for a level 5
Soldier / level 15 Jedi Guardian. Just don't level your Soldier any more when
it hits level 5, and save the experience. When you get your Jedi class, you
should be around level 8-9 from the experience you saved, that is level 3-4 Jedi
Guardian. What are our weaknesses then? One thing really, since we don't need
Skills (again, explained in the Skills Section): FPs. Didn't I say we would do
a character with FPs that go almost as high as a Consular's? Yes I did, didn't
I? Well, jump over to the Attributes Section and we'll see what we can do about
that...

--------------
4.0 ATTRIBUTES
--------------
Strength is important for To Hit and Damage with melee weapons. Important for
us, since we're going to use our Lightsaber as weapon. Dexterity adds Defence,
Ranged Attack/Damage bonus and Reflex bonus. Good for everyone (Defence ;D),
including us! Constitution gives us more VPs and better Fortitude saves. We need
it! Intelligence adds SKs per level. Since SKs aren't important, this attribute
isn't either. Wisdom gives you more FPs, Force Power/Will saves and makes your
own Force Powers harder to resist. VERY important! Charisma helps with some
Force Powers and Feats, but also adds to Persuade and FPs.

Thanks Claude Arm for telling me that Charisma also adds to FPs, and that
you can't get less SKs/lvl than one!

4.1 Recommended Attributes
--------------------------
Strength - 14 +2 Attack/Damage with melee weapons
Dexterity - 14 +2 Defence and Reflex saves
Constitution - 12 +1 VP/level and +1 Fortitute saves
Intelligence - 8 We can't get less than 1 SK/lvl anyway
Wisdom - 15 (+5) +2 bonus at start, +5 when finished
Charisma - 14 +2 bonus, very cheap

This is a very balanced way of giving out your attributes. We pump into Wisdom
to gain the extra FPs we so badly need, and still gain acceptable combat
bonuses. That which makes this character a "Hybrid" is the high Wisdom. You'll
end up with 180+ FPs at the end, an amount close to that of a Jedi Consular

5.1 Must-Have Feats
-------------------
Two Weapon - This is the first thing you have to decide about. Should
Fighting/Dueling you use one, dual or the double bladed Lightsaber? The two
last alternatives goes for the same Feat, so what you have
to do is simply to decide how you want to fight. The double
bladed Lightsaber does more damage, as do the dual
Lightsabers. The single blade gives you more defence.
I fancy the dual lightsabers, since I can then modify them
more with 4 crystals instead of only 2 (2 crystals can be
inserted into every Lightsaber for extra mods, the color
crystal excluded). Choose how you want to fight, and then
max out the appropriete Feat ASAP! (I STRONGLY suggest
dark Jedi use either dual or double bladed lightsabers for
a more offencive approach, since they lack more defensive
Force Powers, you might as well go all-out on offence.)

Critical Strike - There can be valid reasons to choose Flurry instead of this
Feat, but I think that it's better to get three times your
amount of criticals than just one extra attack per round.
There are some very nice Sabre Crystal Combos that can,
with help from this Feat, gain a 50% chance to score a
critical! Max this one out ASAP!
Two Weapon Focus / Dueling (MAX)
Critical Strike (MAX)
Toughness (MAX)
Implants (MAX)
Conditioning (level 1)

Interesting combination. I always use the following pairs due to the fact that their default attributes compliment each other:

Soldier = Guardian
Scout = Sentinel
Scoundrel = Consular

I use the scout guardian as well :)

Same here, I like the benefits of implants. Some nice stat boosts there.

Grifman

im always a soldier/guardian LS and soldier/consular DS...DS needs more force points but a LSer doesnt have too many force powers that are necesary to use in quick succession in battle so it isnt necesary to have a more force oriented class!

OOOH! This is sort of unique...:D

I prefer a highly modifed soilder\sentinal so I can have a middle of the road class but the FP of a conselor and the saber skill of a guardian. All thx to tk102's savegame editor.

I have also been a scout/guardian and scout/counsular (I like the clothes, so Han Solo-ish)

:fett:

I usually go Scoundrel/Counselar or Soldier/Sentinel! :D

THANK YOU! I really like the combo soldier/sentinel, because then i get to be a warrior immune to stun etc...:D

Wow I thought I was the only scuot/guardian!

Gotta love free implants and force jump feats!

*amazed by the number of people that appear not to use the padawan mod*

Wow...

I use the Darth Revan Incarnate mod, but only sometimes.;)
Tried Padawan mod, but Revan Incarnate is better, IMO.

You're not!
'Tis a good class selection!

Though I use more SOldier/Consular, Soldier/Sentinel rocks too!

Never heard of it. It doesn't appear to be on PCGM's (I looked but too hard), and I the search function here only returned this thread *shrug*

What is it?

I searched for "Revan Reincarnate" in the PC version of StarWarsKnights.com and returned the resullts as posts. First hit led me to the website.

Straight from the website where you can get it (http://w1.842.telia.com/~u84203091/sith.htm).
Allows you to play from the very beginning of Endar Spire with Force Powers and Darth Revan robe+mask and assume your rightful identity from the very start.

It didn't occur to me to search all StarWarsKnights. Silly me thinking I could find it by looking in the modding community. Either way, thanks for the link =)
