Here's one to think about. If Trask was literal royalty, then he probably could have secured a high ranking position for himself within the Republic military right off the bat. Instead, he chose to start at the bottom just like everyone else.

That's not to say if Trask was not born Further From the Direct Line of Succession, like say he was the the 3rd or so cousin to whoever was supposed to Rule during the Kotor timeline till eventually Trask's descendent was able to take up the throne.
@HonestHappyHater2 жыл бұрын
Trask wasn't "royalty", he was "nobility", as Bouris Ulgo hasn't usurped the throne yet. Besides, house Ulgo traditions required it's members to reject the pampered lifestyle and serve in the military. Not only that, but his house grew to prominence after the Jedi Civil War. Trask didn't really have a choice between becoming a high-ranking officer and starting at the bottom, and even if he did, he'd start at the bottom per house traditions. Sorry for making you read all of that, I just spent too much time reading in-game SW:ToR encyclopedia not to share

Fun fact: Darth Bandon is programmed to appear as you walk away from a star map after defeating Calo Nord and obtaining the first map. Normally, this means Bandon will appear after the second map. However, the game doesn't specify which map you need to be walking away from, so you can actually trigger the Bandon event early by revisiting the first star map. If you do this, it nearly softlocks the game because Bandon will outclass you. However, he can be beaten with some difficulty. It's funny to note that Bandon can die in the same spot where Calo Nord did.

I was never a huge mmo person, there's just too much running back and forth for me to really enjoy it, but so far I finished the Smuggler and now I'm doing Sith Warrior and the stories are well written and it's fun to play such contrasting characters. Plus Galactic Starfighter is a lot of fun if you learn how to play it properly, and PVP can be fun too but there's a certain meta too it. As a smuggler gunslinger I'm basically shit in PVP unless I had a really good healer to keep me alive so I can keep doing damage with my big power shots. Otherwise, certain builds are just a lot more viable for it.

A lot of people use the order of the planets listed in Kotor during that one cutscene (Tatooine, Kashyyyk, Manaan, Korriban) to say that this is the "real" order in which the game should be done. However I actually prefer to go to Kashyyyk first (recruiting Bindo), then go to Manaan, then to Tatooine which gives me time to have my subplot with Bastila's companion quests play out, the romance to occur (if the player chooses) and finally for Bastila to be captured right after this. I guess I'm used to doing it in that order because the machinima or game "movie" I watched that was based on the game ended up doing it that way so it makes more sense. It also makes it more likely that Darth Bandon's head would've been retrieved on land instead of underwater and the Bandon encounter takes place on the third planet you visit in the game regardless.

@JjayNC8L2 жыл бұрын
The sith are a specific dark side philosophy, the main one in fact, but not the only dark side force users, sith are ALL dark side force users, but not all dark side force users (dark Jedi, if you will) are sith. It really is just the finer details. You wouldn't call a night sister or dathomir a "sith" for example, but you would acknowledge they are very powerful with the dark side. For a wee bit of additional lore, "sith" as you probably know are a species as well, and the namesake of the sith order, as they were a race inherently powerful and attuned to the dark side of the force, amongst and dominant of the original "sith" teachings, which were coined and founded on their home planet of korriban. I'm not 100% sure of when but at some point after the "exiled dark jed'ai" came to korriban and began to both enslave and interbreed with the species, their offspring were among the first true "sith" as in the philosophy not the species, after the joining of the dark jed'ai and sith species on korriban.

As said, not all dark Jedi are sith, but all sith are dark Jedi. You can use the term for sith, but i imagine Dash was using it also not to say sith 10 billion times xD (I'm sorry this is so long, could skip this, not relevant to question, I love ranting sometimes, and that's my bad) Edit: but Sith is a term for a race and philosophy so it can be confusing at times as some folks will refer to sith and mean the species not the force philosophy itself. As often they will refer to sith as dark jedi, but dark Jedi is a loose term for dark side force users in general, and dark side force users who don't adhere to a specific philosophy. The night sisters are dark Jedi, but first and foremost, night sisters in belief and study. Sith are dark Jedi, but sith in philosophy. Just as jedi are light side force users, of the Jedi philosophy, although Jedi despite also being a very specific term has been adopted as a loose term for anyone with a lightsaber and the force sometimes xD even in canon (makes sense for those who know nothing about the force) Such as you will find absolutely canon in game and show references where people call even sith as Jedi because that's what they know popularly to use lightsabers and the force, regardless of their moral views or actions. Dark Jedi is like that next step up in understanding, the awareness that there even is both a light and dark in the force, and are two separate acting entities.
