Fuzz posted:BH has some of the best companions in the game, but yeah, they also have literally the worst one. Worse than Corso? That guy hangs out on my ship, currently pantsless since the update, and during story scenes he randomly will walk in from off screen to interject his stupid opinion. I decided not to give him his gun back just to see what he would do about it, and he totally bitched out.

Tirranek posted:lol in this case it was that mission on Balmorra where you rig the radios to explode, and then another guy gives you a lighter side choice to do it to grenades instead to target soldiers. They all went with the dark choice except me, I won, then when the guy berated everyone I won the roll basically saying 'yeah, guys, what were you thinking?' When this game first came out, the whole multiplayer narrative choice stuff felt so cool and was something I had never seen in a game before. It's great that they're moving towards more focused story stuff, but now the story seems more solo-restricted than ever. Can you even play KOTFE as a group?

FYI if you are maxing out on Glowing Crystals (Elites) and are all stocked up on 216 gear, you can buy Exotic Isotope Stabilizers for 25 crystals from the smuggled supplies vendor on Odessan, and they sell for a little bit. I tried to transfer crystals that way but sadly didn't work.

Someone linked a video to me earlier of one of the Accept Valkorian's Help Y/N scenes in KOTFE, and it sure as hell looks like you kill skadge in the collateral damage if you do accept the help. We can live in hope.

The fact that they just bullshit with each other mid-quest is great. It's like what if Corso wasn't annoyingly bland and nothing. Blockhouse fucked around with this message at 17:38 on Nov 11, 2015 |

As a side note, on my BH who's into the KOTFE stuff: Blizz (And Skadge, but who cares) can't be pulled back onto your team with the thing in your office, unlike Torian and Mako and Gault. Which suggests he may well be out there for everyone, come January. Though, weirdly, I'm really hoping that Gault makes an in-story appearance in later chapters too so Hylo Viz can...respond to his presence.

Does the new companion system make it reasonable to level with something besides "You = DPS, companion = Healer"? It would be cool to actually try out some different combinations. I'm actually doing double DPS with my KOTFE main and it's working out pretty well. Also is there a good World Boss guide, I'm doing that one recruitment quest. Are they on timers? (I can't believe they are forcing multiplayer for that other one, but I guess these are all optional)

So if anyone likes collecting achievements there's a hidden one related to the most recent Alliance recruit: After you get Lokin, there will be a rakghoul named "Scritchy" who hangs out up on the pipes/rafters of the military section of your Alliance base. He does move around up there so he's not always in the same spot. To unlock the achievement you have to loot this tiny crate on top of the console:  That will give you an extra ability to throw some meat. It's on a fairly short timer I think, but all you have to do is toss it to Scritchy. The first time you do it it will unlock the achievement so you can see it, but you have to do it 10 times to complete it and you can only feed Scritchy once a day.

I've had Khem tank for my backstabbing Inquisitor (and my lightning Inquisitor), I've had Vette DPS for my dual-lightsaber Warrior, and my Consular has tanked while Nadia does DPS.

Just because a boss is not up on instance 1 doesn't mean you can't get him on 2 or 3 or whatever. Have fun with the bear asses if you go that way. They're on a 10 min respawn timer and likely heavily camped. There's 4-5 on Highmount Ridge on Hoth, which is where I got my 20 kills. Still took about 2 hours my 2nd time around that quest.

I quite liked Jedi Knight chapter 2 because it felt like it was building to something interesting, but the climax is such lazy, abbreviated, anti-climatic poo poo that I have no interest in getting back on the planet-tour train for chapter 3. How do I kill off companions?
