Completed Trial, Your Thoughts on Two, Character, Choice.

mudstuck

I have played the trial, now, acheived lvl 24, and Ace, as a Bounty Hunter, and also played some on, Commando, Jedi, and Trader.

Ive decided to continue on, and having not been able to use harvesters, on the Trader, my knowledge there is limited, in regards to making a choice, for my second toon.

Rather than go from the trial, I'll start fresh, and avoid a few things in the space combat, which I enjoy, that I feel hampered me, and, more or less wasted the free 14 days. The free 30 days of buying the box, look much beter, for my money, knowing what I now know.

I liked the BH, with Carbine, etc, but am not interested, in Bounty Hunting, itself.

The Comando was very fun, yet, looks as if it may be geared toward being a tank, and very much a core to group play, as the lvls get higher. Frankly the, bone headed, mistakes I have made as Tank in other games, make me shy from this choice. Im much more suited to, end around, attacking, or , Sapping, if you will.

Mid Range Carbine work, and, melee, ability's, strike my fancy the most. I have played Jedi, however it seems as if everyone, is a Jedi, and thats just not , Underdog enough for me.

So, I now wonder about Smuggler, having only read about it, I am curious. And also Officer looks interesting. Ive yet to read much about spy.

What I ask of you, is this, simply, which toon, would , in your opinion, seem to ;

A) give me enjoyable, Carbine work, some fun, sword weilding.

compliment my second, Trader, toon.

C) fill my need for, end around / sapping, hit em where it hurts and disappear, fetish.

In asking this, I simply havent had time to read enough, in the last two weeks to feel comfortable making a choice. RL commitments, etc.

With two days off, finally, Im am pressed to get this thing going, downloaded , and on the road, so to speak.

Your thoughts, Idea's, and advice, are greatly appreciated.

As a foot note, I'll go EMP, simply because I think the ACE helmit, looks pretty damned cool, the one I got as Nuetral, looks pretty damn ugly, the Jacket too, YUK. And black is just cool. LoL

Also I like Housing, Vending, etc, but assume that will be conotated, by my Trader. Questions about trader will be forth comming, but not pressing. Yet if you have thoughts here, please share them.

Hey mudstuck,

Welcome to SWG.  Glad to hear that you are enjoying things so far.

I put together this guide a while ago, it gives you the idea of how each combat profession plays at the high end:

Hopefully that helps you in making your choice.

Fire away with any Trader questions and I'll answer what I can.
