With the consular's force focus ability, you can stun enemies with little trouble (a well-built consular can stun Darth Traya). The sneak attack feat line of an assassin + The force rape of the consular works like penutbutter and jelly. Sith Lord/ Jedi Master=garbage, assassin/watchman=ok.īest combo in the game is both in my opinion and in my experience Consular/Assassin and for only one simple reason. Just make sure that you get a dual wield weapon because it REALLY makes a difference. OK so that sums up my class of Sentinal Marauder. Sion was a 1 hit (as you know he comes back about 6 times) and I just hit him every time after he regained health. I would run in to the academy, and kill everything. And you get a massive health and offensive boost, at the cost of a small miniscule amount of defense. Also, if you use marauder, you can get the force power furry which is like wookie rage. I hit the enemy 3 times (using master flurry). And I had a double bladed lightsaber, and i never missed, and never hit under 50. it's a one hit kill for EVERYTHING, now for me personally (talking about my personal class RECOMMENDED) I had every single feat for dual handed weapon (with sith marauder you ger extra feats for dual wield weapons) and all the lightsaber feats. The best thing, is force wave, and then individually go to each and every one, and master flurry. when you are fighting 2 sith marauders, 3 sith lords and 15 sith assassins at once. ***SPOILER ALERT*** once I got in to Trayus' academy, it started to get difficult as it does for everyone.
I recently (today) beat the game for the 7th time as a dark side sentinal, sith marauder. My favorite for the beginning is sentinal, because it gives you the skills you will need later on in the game, as well as the beginning. Guardian is not too bad, considering if you go all your attributes strength, and you are a guardian, then you can easily destroy droids or humans for that matter early on, and it foes well with any other prestige class.
Anyways, in my experience, consular is my least favorite starting class, you don't have enough force powers or force points for it to be effective in the beginning, which is what it is meant for.
