Emperor, the choking-lightning is just great.

Though I prefer Vader for the choke-slash. You aren't slow relatively when your enemy is being choked, and you can cut them limbs off wgile they are being chokiniated(cooler word than burninated).

Darth Maul is fast but once you get done with your attacks he's vunrulble. But he's still fast but I wish he had choke or some other force power.

Force push or pull is rather helpful. ;)

pull is useless because you need to be sorta close
push is better because you stumble farther

Huh?

Force Pull is useful because you pull the enemy towards you and then you would kill them. Force Push is useful for get aways and to knock them down and attack.

You can also push people down pits and off ledges and stuff, and yeah of course pull is useful.

No doubt. I think I am probably one of the few who use force powers aas an advantage.

the force pull/push power is cool, but quite annoyingly if you push someone off a ledge ,say, on mustafar, and they fall in the lava, you dont get the kill. its just a case of "you died". grrrr....

Yeah, knocking guys into kill areas is always satisfying, but sort of hollow as you don't get the credit.

Well, what technically killed the person you pushed off: you, or the lava?

That's what I thought. :p

Well what about shooting someone? Who really killed them, you or the bullet/laser? Or lightsabers: Technically the jedi arn't killing the guys, the blades are, they just swing the hilt... and I'm just going to stop splitting hairs before someone starts taking me seriously.

I think Maul is the best, but my favorite is Dooku, just because he's Dooku.

My observations. Maul is "the best", to be more accurate he's the easiest. I noticed that every hit will cause a stun/knockdown. I also noticed that I don't even have to be facing people while using maul, he appears to attack in a radius. So, perma stunning coupled with area affect attack makes him over-the-top overpowered.

In fact, I find maul sooo cheesy easy to use in MP that I don't use him anymore. I like count dooku or palpatine myself.

too true, but close competition from aayla Secura with the jumping attack. it just looks so cool, and is more likely to hit with the whole 2 sabers thing. i think she's better in large fights, whereas maul is a bit buggered if he gets hit.

I have to go with Maul. His double bladed lightsaber is awesome and he is quite a fighter.

Maul? Pffft..

Emporer all the way. Choke them while you fly up and do that move that smashes the ground, sending lightning everywhere. Sends them flying across half the map.

why is that a waste of time? he's killing them and having fun isnt he/she? (not sure which there!)
in that sense, playing the game all together is a waste of time... :cowdance

pah. anyways, i've been practicing using Count dooku, and he's actually really good. Although his sprint attack is a bit, well, cr*p, he's actually really good in group fights, and has a cape. And i can now beat my friend playing as Maul on a a kill death ratio of 3:1. im quite proud, so i think the best villian has gotta be dooku now...:)

LOL, no prob dude. at least, i won't get myself worked up into a rage over an accident :). the reason why people think dooku sucks is because they dont really use him. Its taken me ages of assault on mos eisley to get good with him, and like i said, Darth Maul is such a pushover now. :)

Thats the way it is with most villains I think. Maul is such an obvious choice (Sweet weapon, 'I'm gonna kill you' glare, and his looks are nothing compared to how he actually plays) that some other villians get passed up most of the time.

^You're absolutely right.
On Mos Eisley:Assault it's usually nothing but a bunch of Mauls running around on the villain side. I use that MP opportunity to learn other choices. I'm starting to like Grevious. He lacks force powers, can't "fly" jump like most, and if he's attacked first, he's usually done. But if he runs to an enemy and gets the first swipe in, they're usually guaranteed death. It's not just what they can do, or how much of it, but how you learn to use it.

I have to say that Grevious is probably the most powerful. He can take out hordes of enemies with one force speed attack. He also seems to have high health. However, Maul is very manueverable and has a very powerful attack. Maul can flee a battle if needed, where as Grevious, most of the time, must fight it out, for he can't "fly".

Actually, I'm starting to like Jango Fett. I mainly stay in the area outside the hanger and cantina, and snipe from the many tall structures around. I try to switch my sniping spot after every couple of kills. I also try to have my pistol fully loaded after every kill, so I can unleash quick bursts at once. If a bunch of enemies are below me, I drop a time bomb on them. I doesn't generally hit them, but it scares them away. Using this strategy, I can get many kills and very few deaths. If you get good at this stratagy, then I think that Jango is the best villan.

I would say Darth Maul because his double lightsabre take off alot of damage and if you knock someone down with force push and then just run at them with sprint and start slashing with your double lightsabre you are almost sure that you will get a kill.

I managed to rack up some eighty kills with Jango Fett, and I only died twice, I think. I used the tactic that I mentioned above. This proves that everyone is good with their own strategy and villan that compliments their strategy. Though I do have to admit that Maul is very good in many ways. I just didn't live as long running around on the ground with him.

Of course, I managed to get even more kills with Han.

Yes it is very easy to underestimate the 'pea shooter' heroes. But you've gotta be very careful when using them, one false move and you end up on the wrong side of a lightsaber.
