Pots is short for options......not to many of those in a world that magic is not a primary force ;)

My point is that due to the fact these medpacks and atoms will function much like bread/food from WoW; the healing abilities of each class will not function the same way. Why on earth would a dev gives us two options to heal the exact same way!?


The point at the story arc was to illustrate that the gambia designed for each character to be able to heal themselves regardless of need. Which makes the game more appealing to noobs.


What? The medpacks will work exactly like potions does in WoW. And the out of combat regeneration ability (that some of you call heal) will work exactly like bread/water in WoW. The 'real' healing abilities will also work exactly like in WoW.

A sith warrior/jedi knight for example won't have any kind of healing ability unless there's some talent I've forgotten about such as the WoW's Warrior's "Second Wind" which generates a certain % of your health when you get hit by a stun or immobilizing effect.

in one of the pax 2011 videos it shows someone playing a sith warrior ( they are really bad at it ) but in this video it does show them self heal but its a Channeling skill so as it would be hard to use in combat its not impossable . the guy playing in the video had a Companion that was ranged if there Companion was more of a tank like khem val it would be easyer to use that abllity if you let him grab aggro. not saying this is the best way to go about useing the skill but it is there. i beleave its another skill that the name has not been released yet like the skill to rez a teammate in combat did not have a name untill last week.

reading threw the Swtor forums i did find out that we can not Swim in this game making it so we can not cross water thats kind of a let down we can travel in hyperspace and have plasma based swords but we dont know how to swim ?

and another thing thats not a big deal is we cant sit down in the game. thats something more for the role players in the game but still its a fun option

also if you havent seen these videos yet check out the Q&A from the end of october http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hF45mxoFq5o

Go ahead and show me the video of that Sith Warrior channeling skill that is usable in combat. I'm pretty sure you're referring to the out of combat channeling skill. Everyone can ress everyone out of combat though, and Jedi Consulars/Sith Inquisitor even got a combat ress.

It sucks indeed that you can't swim.

You can sit, but you can't sit on stuff. What I mean by that is that you can't right click a chair and then sit down on it, but the /sit function is still there.

lol dont know why they would make it so you can sit next to a chair but not in it. not a big deal the only time i would use a chair is if i was going Afk.

i still cant decide on a class i hope i get into one of the beta weekends so i can try a class out. i kind of thinking about going DPS im kinda sick of being a Healer in every game.
