When players like Kitru and KeyboardNinja claim that Shadows are superior tanks, what exactly is meant by that? I've read the statement 'eke out superior performance' many times, but it tell me nothing. At the highest levels, why is a Shadow tank supposedly better than a Guardian or Vanguard? Complexity aside, what does it do different that DPS and healers will appreciate?

Trooper and Imperial Agent have the best storylines. Smuggler and Consular have been my least favorite.

I would like to see this as well.

You forgot to mention that GS is the most stylish class.

Yes, BW has used Black voice actors. At the very least, Kevin Michael Richardson and Phil Lamarr voice more than a handful of characters. Hopefully, all Sith will have Valley accents in future Star Wars works.

I would watch an anime about slicers living in Nar Shaddaa, doing heists and whatnot. It would most definitely be more stylish than Western-animated stuff. After the Clone Wars, though, I think I'd prefer another CG show.

Vette, Blizz, and Bowdaar. So far.

Wait, so if I wanted to learn to craft a skill barrel 26 or something, I would have to pay 30000 credits to rip it from an expensive or rare weapon, then RE it for a 20% chance to learn the schematic? Sheesh.

I was actually expecting Togruta to be the next race, but I look forward to making a Cathar. My main issue is not having a free character slot. I don't want to have to make an all new Legacy on a different server.

I, too, would like to play some Pazaak or Sabacc in TOR.

I passionately support this suggestion. Please come through for us, Bioware!

My GS is pretty mobile with the DF spec. That said, I don't have a problem with the cover mechanic nor the stationary nature of most of the class's abilities. It may have to do with my lowered expectations: I just wanted a class that could dual-wield pistols and look cool while shooting. I got what I wanted.

I think SS is fastest for leveling, but the choice is yours. And, it's not that DF is too hard to level, it just takes longer to kill things until you get Wounding Shot (and even then, it's not as fast as SS).

Y'know, I tried this build last night. It's good damage, but it's also a ridiculous energy vacuum. Part of that, of course, is that I don't know how to play Sabotuer, but Shrap>VS>Shock>Sabo>Wounding Shot took me down to 0 energy.

I actually don't mind twi'leks wearing hats. I imagine there are holes in the hats and on the rim for the lekku. I wish they could wear robes, though; just let the lekku drape over the torso, like Mission Vao. Anyway, while I hate the capes, I love the hats. I do not like the masks and chinstraps that they come with -- just give me the hat.
