Jedi Consular

SW:TOR Jedi Consular Class

Female Jedi Consular

The Jedi Consulars are negotiators of the Republic. Similar to the iconic Yoda the cdonsular prides themselves on utlising knowledge and intelligence rather than brute force to achieve there desired results. Embrassing the force and acting as a conduit for its energy has made the consualar incredibly effective in battle should communication fail.

Although choosing study and enlightment in the past Consulars have been called upon to aid in the war with the empire. On the battle field, expect to see the Consular as the fast, nimble warrior. They rely on their double bladed lightsaber and speed to get their work done when fighting. Unlike the Jedi Knight who does battle in armor and more brute strength, the Consular will wear robes only and fight with speed. They expect to deflect all laser bolts and lightsabers and never have to worry about something hitting their bodies. They will use the force such as lifting a heavy bolder, to throw at an opponent rather than just parrying with their weapon.

  Jedi Consular Game-play

  
  

Jedi Consulars use “Force” as a resource for their spells. It works slightly differently between the two class specializations as well. It essentuially acts as energy and regenerates over time, each ability requires a certain amount of force o be used and depletes the available force once used.  Jedi Shadow has an ability that increases the Force regeneration rate allowing for faster regeneration and increased skill useage rate, the Jedi Sage on the other hand has an ability that significantly increases the base force pool (400%).

Weapons & Armor

Preferring to stay as nimble on the battlefield as they are in negotiations, Jedi Consulars avoid the heavy battle armor worn by many Jedi Knights, Dense polymers and Cortosis armors would weigh them down; light cloaks and ornamented robes suit their strengths better, and the efforts they most often find themselves engaged in. No matter where they go, however, Consulars are never without the Lightsaber that marks their initiation into the Jedi Order.

Combat Tactics

Although very calm an focused on mediation the Jedi consulars abilities in battle are far more than one would expect and nothing shows this more than there fluid motion and unparalleled use of the force No matter the situation a Jedi Consular acts as a conduit for the force embracing and channeling its full potential into hugely powerful surges of energy capable of devastating large groups of foes and disabling those who would seek to harm allies.
