As said befor he was a jedi but if you need to give him a class jedi consolar.

Why watch episode 3 no jedi knight can trow so many stuff.

for that mather most ingame jedi knight cant even use force powers.

Meaby force push and force jump but those are extreemly rare in comparison to the jedi consolar many force powers.

 

Also a jedi only defends never attacks yoda didnt kill anikan because it is not the jedi way to kill someone just because he MIGHT be dangerous.

 

Sure we all knew anikan had its doudts.

 

But tell me honestly would you kill someone(anyone) just because he might kill someone?

 

I mean the jedi way teach's that you can still make a choice.

 

Anakin felt to the dark side because he choice to believe that the dark side granted him the power over life.(even if he had saved padme would he really give up on the power he gained?) and he hated himself for it.

Game mechanics =/= Actual lore.

 

Movies/books/comics/whatever characters are not divided into classes. Yoda was a Jedi.

 

this^

 

while everyone's points about Yoda being a consular makes some sense Yoda was a master of the Ataru form....that alone would make him a jedi knight sentinel.

I think in the films, Jedi had no advanced classes :p

 

It was Jedi and Sith. like you said, He had amazing force sensitivity, but was also a master of Ataru, as was Qui Gon Jin, who was in theory a Guardian/Consular too? so Just a Jedi then.

Game mechanics has nothing to do with the lore.

 

But just for reference, Yoda was trained as a Consular, but also rose to be a swordmaster of the order. But he was a Consular.

 

The fact that Shadows count as Consulars is purely a mechanical construct, by the way; In the context of game mechanics, he's clearly a Sage.

And Luke was using Force Choke in RotJ, he was clearly a Sith Warrior. :rolleyes:

 

 

No.

 

The game is using artificial restrictions with skills, weapons and armors. It's good for the sake of balance but bad when you take it too seriously.

QFT.

 

Computer and table top games divide players into classes and subcategories to widen the game play experience. In reality and lore however, there is no need to do that. Yoda was a jedi, just like Dooku was a sith; however, both incredibly skilled at swordplay and with deep understanding of the force.

Yoda was just yoda. At the time of the first episode he was 800+ years old. 900 when he died. I would imagine in that time he could have mastered both the Knight and Counsular side if you want to pigeon hole him into game terms.

 

But no matter where you put him...he kicked butt.

Regardless of game mechanics being quite different from actual lore, the different Jedi classes do apply to all Jedi in Star Wars. Yoda was a Consular, his wisdom, mastery of the Force and green lightsaber color (even though this is not a rule) all point to that fact.

 

Someone pointed out he was a master of the Form IV: Ataru. Yes, in fact he was a master of all seven forms of lightsaber combat, except Vaapad, the modified version of Form VII: Juyo. Only Mace Windu and Sora Bulq reached mastery of Vaapad. Yoda earned the title of Swordmaster in the Jedi Order.

 

This game makes all Consulars and Inquisitors look bad in that it seems none of them know how to use their sabers. They don't even use any of the combat forms. When in truth, every single Jedi are at least proficient with Shii-Cho and more often than not many different forms.

 

Kit Fisto, a MASTER of Shii-Cho, was also a Consular. Do you see him using a lot of Force powers, standing away from a fight to throw stones or to heal others? No. He was a master of combat and actually one of the best swordsmen in the Jedi Order. His skill with Force powers manifested through his excellent use of Force Speed and his unique ability to manipulate water through the Force. As a Nautolan, water was a close element to him.

 

Bah, I always ramble in these posts... anyway, don't think that only Guardians know how to fight. It may be what they do best, but all Jedi surpass any normal being in swordfight, whether Guardian, Consular or Sentinel. It's just sad the skills in this game do nothing to reflect this.

If you want to put Yoda into a class that fits in the game, here you go.

 

He was a GM who got fired for not banning some emo kid who was running around griefing newbs causing them to unsubscribe. With his banning he was not allowed to resubscribe and forced to write blogs on how to play, but he couldn't have a search engine prescence. The only way to find his blog posts was by getting the URL from a GM that yoda used to work with.

This is my biggest problem with the game. Not all jedi having someting as simple as like jedi push or pull.

 

Sure have some classes have skills that make them amazing and sync well with others, but at least give the others the basic pull/push even if they never use it cause it sucks for them.

He was a Consular. He was skilled in lightsaber combat, IIRC, but he was very strong in the Force.

 

Yoda was a Jedi, Luke was a Jedi and Anakin was a Jedi. No such thing as Jedi being placed in category. Don't compare game mechanics to the books/comics/movies.

 

Yoda was a JEDI GRAND MASTER and a knight of the Republic
