I'm having some serious trouble deciding what to make a twi'lek Jedi with as far as class. I enjoyed my Marauder but I found I enjoyed it more because I had a capable healer with my pure DPS. Jedi Guardians and Sentinels don't get their healer until Act 2 which is unfortunate, perhaps someone can give me tips to up my survivability as a Sentinel.

 

I currently have a Male Shadow at the start of Act II and although the story was slow, I enjoyed the class. I was going to make a Sage to set the balance, but I have heard that even in PvE its impossible to be a proper healer for your companion/group. Can anyone give me a winning formula to play Sage in 1.2, taking into consideration I'm not going to PvP.

 

I wasn't a major fan of the female voice for the Knight, but I haven't heard the Female Consular's much at all. How is it?

Don't go sage. Bioware totally screwed them with the last patch. If you still want to heal roll a trooper or smuggler. If you want to PvP then roll a shadow or guardian and face roll.
