Final two Star Wars: The Old Republic classes revealed
by Griffin McElroy 
{ Nov 24th 2009 at 9:45AM } 
These two join the six other previously announced classes for the game: Trooper, Imperial Agent, Bounty Hunter, Smuggler, Jedi Knight and Sith Warrior. Tragically, it seems the Fashion Designer class from Star Wars Galaxies won't make a reappearance in Old Republic. As a result, we expect everyone's characters to be dressed in the drabbest of duds.

I don't know why BioWare didn't include the Jedi Sentinel, considering they CREATED the bloody class.
JollyDrifter @ Nov 24th 2009 10:11AM
they need something of the expansion pack.
The Pirate @ Nov 24th 2009 10:08AM
Probably because the Sentinals were the bitches of the KOTOR universe. They were good at nothing, yet sucked at everything. Maybe im a bit bias though since in my 8 playthroughs of KOTOR 1, ive only ever been a Consular
Darth Bradwart, The Dark Lord of the Sith-ATDF Co-Founder @ Nov 24th 2009 10:13AM
Sentinels kicked ass. Who wants to be a wimpy Consular?
The Pirate @ Nov 24th 2009 10:15AM
Consulars could fry your ass with Force lightning, beyatch
Darth Bradwart, The Dark Lord of the Sith-ATDF Co-Founder @ Nov 24th 2009 10:25AM
Beat a Dark Lord?
You must be joking...
The Pirate @ Nov 24th 2009 10:37AM
If Sidious could get fried then even you can

How old was that old fart?
I am better than he ever dreamed of being...
The Pirate @ Nov 24th 2009 11:42AM
Darth Tyranus could whoop your ass. (I personally think he was a better fighter than Sidious and only lost against Anakin because he was weakened)

You don't know that there is no Sentinel class. It could still be apart of the regular Jedi class with Guardian. I think that Consular is just so unique that it deserved it's own class. Also, because the Republic and Sith need the same class types.
Duke @ Nov 24th 2009 9:58AM
Wait, so are you telling me I can't play as a Gungan General like Jar Jar Binks?!
Ghen @ Nov 24th 2009 11:28AM
that's in the future, old republic hasn't met that planet yet. (maybe)
Duke @ Nov 24th 2009 11:38AM
OMG, Jar Jar Binks can time travel! Everyone in his fanclub knows that.
Temidien @ Nov 24th 2009 10:07AM
Anyone else think there are too many classes? I'd rather have fewer classes and more specializations...
Avatar @ Nov 24th 2009 10:24AM
Why not lots of classes AND lots of specializations?
Cyryus @ Nov 24th 2009 11:09AM
I kinda agree with both of you, I wish there was only one Force user per side and then you can specialize that character as a Knight/Warrior, Consular/Inquisitor, and a Sentinel/ ?. Kinda like Talent Trees and then make the 4th class like a Sith Trooper (bounty hunters and agents ARE NOT storm troopers) and something unique for Republic.
That's my 2 cents.
Kayel @ Nov 24th 2009 10:36AM
No one expects the Sith Inquisition!
HedonisticKai @ Nov 24th 2009 11:21AM
+1 - I Lol'ed
I doub't alot of other joystiq's will be able to though.
Duke @ Nov 24th 2009 11:39AM
Cause we wouldn't get a Monte Python joke?
Wizzleteets @ Nov 24th 2009 12:16PM
Who's Monthy Python?
[Silly walks out of joystiq]

This information is already confirmed by Bioware. Each class has 2 specializations, in which player need to decide one of which when the storyline progress.
My guess is, the Jedi Sentinel/Guardian shall be those two specializations of Jedi Knight. But whatever, I am relieved. I thought I was going to see 70% of population running around as a Jedi Knight. Now it will be only half of that figure, thanks to Jedi Consular.
Darth Bradwart, The Dark Lord of the Sith-ATDF Co-Founder @ Nov 24th 2009 11:08AM
There's only blue/green sabers, which means Consulars and Guardians.
Cyryus @ Nov 24th 2009 11:15AM
Alright, so we have all the classes now! Time to find out what races we can be... How awesome would it be if we can play as a droid?? Not saying I would play as one but it would be totally unique!
Cyryus @ Nov 24th 2009 11:17AM
Replying to myself but they would have class limitations, obviously they wouldn't be Jedi or Sith (well i am looking at you Grevious) but a Droid Commando or Droid Bounty Hunter is FAR from being far fetched in the Star Wars Universe.
Punkrawk Bbob @ Nov 24th 2009 11:37AM
Droid commandos and bounty hunters already exist.
Grevious was a commando, he just had a bunch of dead Jedi lightsabers that he used. He never once was alluded to being a sith or dark jedi.
Obviously there was 4-LOM in the Empire Strikes Back, who rocks out with Zuckus. Oh, and the more obvious IG-88 who became the sentient life form present in the second Death Star moments before it was destroyed.
mattimus @ Nov 24th 2009 3:20PM
Grievous also wasn't a droid. He was more of a cyborg. He was like the 6,000,000 dollar man.
Cyryus @ Nov 24th 2009 11:44AM
Yeah I know, I totally agree, that is why I said its far from being far fetched. I was just saying I really hope they allow droid as a class because it already fits SO well with half of the classes in the game.
