Yup just took a break from Knights of the Old Republic around a half hour ago and phew... my eyes are tired. Picked it up today around 2 pm or so and been going at it non stop.

What an engrossing game! I haven't had this much RPG fun since Final Fantasy VII on the Playstation! I have been reading a few threads about people saying that this game isn't for everyone and so on. I say... give the game a chance!

I used to hate RPGs in the pre-Playstation era (FF3) but they have really grown on me in the last few generations which included FF7, Xenogears, the Shenmue series, and of course KOTOR.

Definately worth the $50. :cool:

Hmmm. We only thought that Matrix warrior Neo was learning Kung Fu during his lengthy session with Tank ... but in reality, he was actually playing Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic!

TANK: Hey, Mikey -- I think he likes it. How about some more?
NEO: Hell yes.... Hell yes.
MORPHEUS: How's he doing?
TANK: Ten hours straight. He's ... a machine!

Wow. I havent quite played as much but I did play for about 5 hours straight today. I JUST got my lightsaber *spoilers*

Im not to sure if I was doing the right thing but I guess Im supposed to go into that area where there is a lot of tall grass and the rabid dogs. I couldnt get into that door so I went around and fought that jedi (i didnt even talk to her, im darrrrrrrk! lol) I got killed shortly after that. Am I on the right track?

**SPOILERS**

If you're talking about that Juhani girl with the messed up pony-tail thing, then yes you are. That's the last part of the jedi trials.

Well, I didnt pay to much attention to her hair but I know right before I was going to fight her, she froze up my 2 other party members.

Yeah, I got off Taris this morning. I'm about to leave the next planet you visit, Dantooine. This game is addicting.

Hey Pap, did you solve that case? I thought I did but I ended up being wrong. If you did solve it, did you get anything? Is it worth going back and getting right?

Taris was fun....this new planet im on is uber. Grassy......loads and loads of foos to kill. I wanna beat them all. ALL OF THEM I TELL YOU! ALL OF THEM! I'm doing my last test to become a padawan.


I have a Blue LightSaber. WUWU! IM UBER! They asked me waht i wanted to do......i just said KILL IT! lol and they agreed i needed blue.

I solved the case. You don't get anything in return except the quest being done. lol. I'm in the ruins right now, them droids in there are hard as hell. I think i'm just gonna go back out and lvl up some more on them doggies. I might just go back and kill the mandalorian leader, who i would've killed earlier but i got scurred. :o

Alboogy, I got that stupid case wrong too, so I went back and redid it, but you only got more XP I think. I'm pretty sure you don't get any light or dark points.

Edit* Cheedoh beat me to it, but I didn't see his. Oh well, now you know for sure that you only get more xp.:D

Just use a bunch of ion grenades and equip ion blasters/rifles, Strength boosters help A LOT when fighting these 2 droids.
Stun droid seems to lowers its defense as well.

I have a total of 7 lightsabers now. I have my own double-bladed one that I put a green crystal and a power crystal in. These crazy mofos tried to jump me on Tatooine and when I finished them off I got a short lightsaber. Then I have 5 other regular ones from various people. Whenever I try to use 2 at a time I miss almost every attack tho. So I stick to my disruptor rifle or my double-bladed lightsaber.

Alright, then I will just skip it. I was afraid if I did solve it that I would get light points and my guy cant have that! BWAHAHAHAHAHA

The crystal cave is on the outskirts near where you kill the Mandalorian leader. I don't remember exactly where it is coordinate wise, but you will see it on the left side of your screen as a hole in the middle of a rock. heh

From there, go inside and defeat the monsters that try to attack you. Then walk up to each different colored crystal, press A, and take as many crystals as you can in various colors.

As for the droid, he should be around there in the grasslands around a group of the koth animals. Once you kill them, talk to him, and convince the droid to go back to the owner.

I think that the leader fight will occur after you have killed a group of madawhatchamacallsems in the same spot.......after you kill that group the first time.....then go back after awhile and you will encounter him.....hard biabia too mang.

JJaX

For those who beat the dueling tourny, how the hell did you do it? I'm level 6 and I can't do **** against Marl. In one hit he'll take you down from full hp to nothing. And yes, i'm a fighter. I'm using a longsword in one hand and a prototype vibroblade in the other. I have 72 hp and I can take out about 8 rakghouls at once. Also, will someone please tell me how you get past the rancor. I don't know how to use the damn odor spray or whatever. I'm guessing I have to find some substance the rancor likes - to put it on. Can you tell me where I can get that substance?

veno: Not sure on the Dueling Ring quest, I beat Ice and never went back to it.

Now, as for the Rancor, I've heard you put the jar of odor/scent into a corpse in the Rancor room, along with a grenade. I think that's how it goes.

I went another route: I snuck up with Mission and laid about 4 or 5 frag mines behind it in a line, then took a couple shots to get its attention (he charges you, setting off the mines as he does). That weakened him enough that I could take him out with some well placed blaster shots.

it says the synth odor isnt a usable item, and how do you drop a grenade on a corpse? Also, i don't have any grenades for some reason. I had 8 like 2 hours ago, and I haven't use any of them but they're not in inventory anymore for some reason.

edit: nm, i got him, thanks.

i've got 4 jedi and 8 light sabers. i am equipped with 2 regular (one purple and one blue) and have 2 jedi in my party equipped w/double bladed light sabers. i have two other regular and two short ones.

so far, i'm not having too much trouble hitting with any of them. the only one that gave me a lot of trouble was the last group of mandelorians on the wookie planet....
