With only months and months to go, the speculation begins

Well, I'm off WoW. My time ends on the 21st, and I won't be renewing. I will not be partaking of Cataclysm goodness either. I might not come back.

Dunno.

The significant other insists she wants to go back to LOTRO for a while, but I am not really into it anymore. I'll hold my MMO enthusiasm for either Star Wars: The Old Republic or Final Fantasy 14, and I'm not planning on getting FF14...sooo.....


It's been a while since I've been on a Star Wars kick. It's...odd. You go away for a while, and they've gone and changed everything quite a bit. Anyway, much of my concern with SWTOR is ' what class will allow me to hack shit up while tanking?' seeing as how there is a lack of shields in the SW universe. You know who had shields? Gungans. I don't want a motherlovin' gungan, sorry.

Troopers will apparently be the tanks par excellence...which means I'll probably make one. But playing a trooper... is not really my bag. I'll be honest, it's the fact that they wear the armor and they remind me of all the storm troopers from the movies, specifically the storm trooper that does the Willhelm scream in A New Hope. And TK 427. So I dunno. But apparently, Sith warriors will get this particular special class -

(I got this from Wookiepedia)- Sith Juggernaut were a specialist class of the Sith Warriors under the Sith Empire. They were known for their heavy armor and cybernetics which allowed them a special protection in battle making many strikes by an opponent against them useless often filling them with despair. Their stamina was considered by many to be unrivaled in battle.


So it follows suit that Jedi Knights get an equivalent specialization. In which case, sign me up. Hey, just because it's a jedi doesn't mean they can't get hit in the face. Look at Qui Gon...ooooooooooooooooohhh, don't tell me it's too soon!
