Blasters vs. lightsaber

Genetic · #1 (**permalink**) 01-29-2005, 04:15 PM

I'm starting a new game as a watchman and I recall how fun my scoundre/lcansular game was in the origional KOTOR. I used blasters to mow down everything in my way. Are the blasters still worth using, or should I stick with lightsabers.

Then again...has anyone ever played through the game using a blaster rifle?

It is really odd to play as a Jedi with blasters if yiu as me but in Kotor II yeah blasters are still worth their reputaiton and damage just look on "153 damage with single shot" - this thread explains some part of blasters role in KOtor II.
I've played KOtor many times but i havent tried to use blaster anyway but maybe I will try but with the female character yeah thats good idea. But which combination of blasters is the best? Od course you re talking about dual blaster huh? Because I dont find rifle interseting or useful It is just two-handed rifle bleeee.

The two best pistols to use in KTOR are Saul Karath's Assasin Pistol and Cassus Fett's heavy blaster.

I read somewhere that they made blasters have a more important role in your wepin choosing. I have the stargety guide and it's constantly telling me to whip out a blaster and snipe some dudes then when they rish in I take em out with my saber, Good stuff.

in this game, the weapons are very balanced. I remember close to the endgame, I gave Mira blasters. she did an insane amount of damage. I think it was like 20-50 dmg on the inventory screen. I don't even think my Visas did that much

max in my game... 20-60...

for ranged attacks, it beats force powers, and lightsabres...

master power attack will sometimes knock down monsters, so you can hit them again...
