i'm sorry but why does the inquisitor get stuck with xalek as their apprentice instead of this guy. i should get to pick my apprentice based on who is the funniest
Okay, some incoherent thoughts on 7.9, full spoilers ahead.
The fact that Rivix survives this and Tau... well, I'm not entirely sure about her fate, but it's very possible that she died (albeit it's unclear, esp on Imp side). Not happy with it. Sure, I wanted to have some strong words with Tau, but I like her character.
I get why Republic/Imperial leadership is concerned and suspicious of Commander (esp if they're a saboteur), so I'm not even mad at them for trying to take the situation under control. But I legit was about to lose my mind when Commander almost got arrested, thankfully our loyal Mandos showed up with the fleet and said 'you and what army', what great timing.
Oh, and saboteurs get exposed here. About time, I suppose, though I would love to switch sides openly before that happened (or better even, just leave Commander and their Alliance alone, let them mind their business).
Space section was alright... once. Don't understand why we don't control the ship like in space missions, it made the whole mission slower imo. Didn't feel like doing it the second time, so it's convenient that we can just skip it.
What was more fun is basilisk section. Sure, it went on a bit too long for my taste, but once I understood what to do, it was more enjoyable.
Section with playable Lana and Theron was my favorite, love their banter, love their friendship, it was good for my soul. Hopefully these aren't just Legacy Reborn exclusive and maybe those be included sometimes in future (I say, as if I'll get to play that).
When we meet Shae, Rass goes at her and honestly, valid crashout, his VA kills it with his performance.
Speaking of Shae, just like with Tau, I didn't want her to die, just have some strong words. I imagine Jett is especially not happy with this, because instead of facing consequences of her actions Shae just gets to die a warrior's death about it, and Jett has to pick up the pieces now.
Vindican, Lord Adraas and Eleena appearing as Malgus's illusions was interesting, it gave his character some depth (in the game at least, obviously there's depth in the book).
Also, why is there 3 of him? They look like they're about to say 'mom said it's our turn on xbox' xD
The last part left me so confused. I don't entirely understand, did Malgus actually fight Jadus, or was that also and illusion, and the real Jadus was in the meditation sphere the whole time? If he was, then what was his plan? Bc he wanted to use the machine and send his message to plant fear in everyone the machine reaches and use that for their obedience, but in the end it Malgus who sent the message? Is it bc we stopped Jadus? But then why he needed the sphere? It's currently 2am here, my brain is tired and still racing with thoughts, so maybe I'm missing something obvious.
Regardless, Nul's machine is running, Malgus got his message out, and among the people who heard it is previously non Force-sensitive Commander (they also stop falling debris with the Force. and they said Sabine used the Force too easily in Ahsoka show). I don't mind this, at least for my character. I would be disappointed if Theron also got it, which is seemingly not the case, as I didn't see him among all different people hearing Malgus's words. Anri also didn't hear it, or if she did, she kept an excellent poker face about it.
That's it for now, maybe I'll have more coherent thoughts in a few days.
Tomorrow is the new and LAST update of Legacy of the Sith, so you know the drill..
TAG. YOUR. SPOILERS!!!!
As always, I make a spoilery and a non-spoilery post, I'll tag them both as "#swtor 7.9" but the one with spoilers will be "#swtor 7.9 spoilers". LET'S NOT RUIN THE FINALE FOR THOSE WHO CAN'T PLAY IT YET!!! That's it, have fun y'all, I can't waiiiit 😈
the female jedi knight has the voice of a very tiny cinnamon roll looking person who gets constantly underestimated but could actually murder you with her pinky. and the female jedi consular has the voice of someone who looks taller than she actually is because she carries herself with so much power and quiet confidence and everyone finds her lowkey intimidating. i will not be elaborating
They for real need to let swtor characters be polyamorous in-game. If I can concurrently have max romance with every available NPC in palia with no one really having a problem with it, surely Space Barbie can figure out letting my character [flirt] with more than one person without them getting overwritten.
Do u guys ever think abt how SWTOR holds the world record for the largest voiceover project EVER with over 200,000 LINES??WHAT?? and a cast of 314 PEOPLE??? Like wtf thats so cool
Guys I'm putting a conspiracy hat on for a minute about the secret Alliance tunnels that somehow the Commander doesn't know about. Why would Lana and Theron build tunnels through the base and not tell you?
Valkorion.
This was their backup plan. Escape routes your character didn't know about in case it was necessary. In case we lost.
Since Auletta has no new outfits, I'll talk about my two favorite outfits of another Inquisitor of mine - Imely.
This is her go-to clothing for any non Sith business. I like that despite rather simple tunic and skirt, the details make it look relatively fancy. The tunic does the heavy lighting with its shiny textures and patterns on blue and red sections, and the light gray in the middle and on collar nicely breaks up all the dark colors. Other pieces are simpler, but I think it's better with the top so detailed, saves the outfit from looking too cluttered. The only thing I would change is add one small pattern or color on the skirt, but I don't have access to any other knee-length skirts.
I also just realized that the blue, red and black color combination of this outfit is the same as her physical traits (blue skin, red eyes and black hair), so maybe that's the reason this pallet looks so right on her.
Pieces:
Chest - Formal Tuxedo set with secondary deep red dye (or dark red, one of these)
Hands - Resort Swimwear set
Wrists - Resort Swimwear set
Waist - Resort Swimwear set
Legs - Freelance Hunter set
Feet - Royal Guardian set
The other favorite outfit of hers is what Imely has during her time in the Alliance (specifically KotET and onward). This one has more white and brown, compared to her previous Sith clothes, which is showing her abandoning the Sith path and following her own way. I like the small additions of blue and gold (although I want to use a different shade of blue, but this game's dye system is very limited). Plus it all goes nicely with her new lightsaber (usually I don't take lightsabers into account when making outfits, but when they do look good together, it scratches something in my brain).
And my favorite part about it is that it bears some resemblance to an outfit of my other character, with whom Imely has a long history (which I don't have time to go into now, but I really should at some point, seeing how they both occupy my mind a lot). Her outfit has the similar white sleeves and fabric going down from waist (idk what they are called, sorry), broken up by another color in the middle (in her case black and blue), and their shoulder pieces are both asymmetrical. Why the resemblance? Nevanor influenced her doubts about the Dark Side and the Sith Empire, and that influence is reflected in her fashion choice (especially bc he wears this during Shadow of Revan, and Imely started having said doubts at that time). It actually goes both ways, but it's a conversation for another time.
Pieces:
Chest - Trimantium Onslaught set with secondary deep blue dye (colors not unified)
Hands - Pragmatic Master set
Wrists - Impulsive Adventurer set
Waist - Raider's Cove Force-lord set
Legs - Zakuulan Security set
Feet - Impulsive Adventurer set with (primary or secondary) medium gray dye
All Sith Warriors for the SWTOR Outfit Designer Meme?
Thank you Raven!
Aw, it just so happens that two out of my four warriors have already been done (Vintu here and Iressa here), so I'm going to show the other two.
For context, Kerstes is a DS!Sith Warrior, who starts as a spoiled brat with little to no respect towards anyone beneath her, but grows into more mature and respectful person over the years. Xaetel is LS!Sith Warrior, though he doesn't use the Force the same as Jedi do, he's simply more kind, merciful and rational than most Sith, and wants to prove his strength and loyalty without being cruel or hateful.
As usual, I'm showing all outfits and then talk about those I find most interesting (which is all of them is case with Kerstes, so a bit of a long post).
Kerstes has 5 outfits.
Outfit number one is still my favorite of hers. This is what Kerstes wears from the beginning of Sith Warrior story until the end of chapter 2. I like the triangular shape language of chestpiece, belt, boots and, of course, claw gauntlets (don't ask how they function. i got no clue). Even the two fabric pieces are pointing down rather than draping in circular shapes. And the pink shade of said fabric goes well with the few yellow metal accents. I also think that her blade looks the best with this clothing. All of this suits her privileged upbringing and cocky, disrespectful personality.
Pieces:
Chest - Remnant Arkanian Warrior set (no dye)
Hands - Remnant Resurrected Warrior set
Waist - Remnant Resurrected Inquisitor set
Legs - Outer Rim Officer set
Feet - Remnant Arkanian Knight set
In comparison to the first one, her second outfit is darker and less colorful (hell, the only color there is black). This change of clothing happens after Kerstes has been seriously beaten by life (both mentally and physically) for the first time. Lack of color and the change of shape language (still triangular with additions of rectangles) represents the loss of some of her edge and snobby attitude. In addition to reflecting her mental state, this also gives her an imposing presence, putting fear of the Emperor in any poor soul who happens to be in the same room, which is intentional, given that she has been appointed Emperor's Wrath at this point.
All pieces are from Ruthless Opressor set without dyes.
This one is her casual look, something Kerstes would wear to a social outing to show off her status.
Pieces:
Chest - Dark Disciple set (no dye)
Hands and wrists - Gav Daragon's set
Waist and feet - Revanite Pursuer set
Legs - Canderous Ordo's set
Now, this one looks very different from all of her outfits, for a good reason. Long story short, near the end of Arcann's conquest of the known galaxy, the Sith Empire was preparing to surrender, but not before trying one last thing. Some of the strongest Sith gathered to strike at Arcann directly to remove him from the throne, and Empire's Wrath was one of them. The attack failed (mainly because they were unaware of Vaylin and her power), most of the strike team was killed, and Kerstes was captured and put in carbonite as a trophy, like the Outlander. At some point the Alliance got Kerstes and other prisoners out, and as thanks for the rescue she stayed to work for them for a while. For failing to stop Arcann and Vaylin she considered herself a disgrace to the Sith, and because of that she hesitated to return home. Blue is an unusual color for her, but it suits her at her most unlike Sith time.
Pieces:
Mask - Resilient Warden set
Chest - Fitted set of Electric Gaze (no dye)
Hands - Sovereign Executioner set (primary black dye)
Wrists - Builder's Apprentice set
Waist - Builder's Apprentice set (black dye)
Legs - Sovereign Executioner set
Feet - Builder's Apprentice set
However, after the Alliance sided with the Republic on Iokath and fought against Empress Acina, Kerstes couldn't stay with them any longer and decided to take her chances with the Sith Empire again. This outfit is more like those she wore in the past, but with some changes that communicate her growth since then. The red shade of the armor is muted and thus appears less aggressive, and the shape language is more circular this time around, with only few sharp edges. Basically, Kerstes is still a Sith, just less of an edgelord.
Everything except belt and mask is from Dashing Blademaster bonus set (no dye), mask is from Resilient Warden set, belt is from Builder's Apprentice set with black dye.
Funniest thing is that a lot of details in these outfits reflecting her character growth are unintentional - the shape language is not something I thought about when I was making these, and I've only noticed that while writing this, and yet it's somehow perfect.
Xaetel has 4 outfits.
First one is a relatively simple armor with pretty much no color, but it is contrasting his more humorous, light-hearted and adventurous personality. Something about a person who's much kinder than they look just appeals to me (similar to LS Jaesa, who is also wearing clothing not suited to her personality, but I could talk about her look another time. it's genius imo).
All pieces minus the belt are from Juggernaut's Renowned set (no dye), belt is from Remnant Arkanian Consular set.
Second is when he's appointed Emperor's Wrath. What I like about this is that it looks like evolution of the first one, the only different piece is the coat and top armor. Initially I wanted to make it red, but it was way too aggressive, so left it with the original purple with blue stripes.
Chestpiece is from Remnant Yavin Warrior set (no dye), everything else is the same as in the previous outfit.
This is for cold weather. I have several armor sets that look like they are suited for cold environments, and I tend to pick and mix pieces from them, so that my characters don't all look the same on Hoth and Ilum. For Xaetel I chose these because they look nice together, plus there is a bit of blue in this, which is a fitting color for him.
Chestpiece, gloves and belt are from Tribal Champion set (no dye), pants are from G.A.M.E. Security set, and boots are from Outer Rim Officer set.
And this is during the Alliance time. All pieces are from Resilient Warden set (no dye). Fun fact - some of my other characters also have this set in different colors, but originally I bought it for him.
