Sith Inquisitor Discussion Thread

(MOVED FROM FRIDAY'S UPDATE SPECULATION THREAD)

Sith Inquisitor is up

Seems they have lot of CC, but I am LOVING that lightening

"Mace 'Who'Du? ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZaaaaaaaaaaap!"

Man, now THAT is a COOL class. The abilities really do look the shizzle. The only thing i don't like about it is the clothing. Looking at the Outfitting section really doesn't make me think Star Wars at all. Still it looks like a riot to play!!!

Yeah, the clothing is much too baroque for my Sith's minimalistic tastes...

Too much focus on lightning too perhaps?

Well seeing as the Sith Inquisitor has two main foci - Lightning and Saber fighting, do we really need to see more glow-stick spamming? We've had plenty from the Sith Warrior, Jedi Knight and Jedi Consular.

Though it might seem "lightning heavy" that's just showing the unique part of the class. If it had come out before, say Sith Warrior, you'd prob see a mix of lightning and saber combat.... but then that would mean the Sith Warrior would be a bit heavy on the "force choke"

Plus the lightning looks cool

Also, I get the feeling I'm the only one that likes the outfits, aren't I? ;(

[nitpick mode] Lightning is fine. But purple lightning? :-/ [/nitpick mode]

I really like their outfits but they look like they tried to make it very easy for people to see that they are the wizards of the game :/

Well I suspect (unless it comes with an age rating upon release) they'll want the game to appeal to as many age groups as possible, so sticking to iconic looks isn't an unwise move. Smugglers in practical leather gear, jedi/sith in robes...its not exactly unusual for star wars.

I'm actually really liking the robes for the Inquisitor and although I made Aleena in a more practical outfit (if you can call unarmed clothing practical in a dangerous galaxy ), I'm looking forward to hiding that outfit (or one similar) under long flowing robes.

I may even see if I can do some concept work in Daz3d after xmas..

I hope playing as a "agile-Darth-Maul-kind-of-saber-fighter" will be any useful; to me it seems like the "force-lightning-spamming-wizard" kind of Inquisitor will be much more over-powered in comparison -_-
