Career/Specializations Suggestions

By Arrakus, in Star Wars: Edge of the Empire RPG

Need help with finding a Career/Specialization(s) combination that would make the most out the 142234 state line (yes we know this over the allowable xp at character gen). Limited to no more than 2 specializations but all three product lines are available.

Thanks!

Colonist performer is probably the best fit. If you want force sensitive, start with mystic makashi duelist and then cross spec into performer

It depends what skills you want to focus on, Agility and Presence covers many many skills. Is there a particular area you have interest in?

Marshal would be good.

Hotshot

Niman Disciple

Spy Scout

Fringer

Pretty much every social build, as long as you don't focus on Deception and Streetwise, benefits from high Presence and Willpower. Anything that uses Charm, Coercion, Negotiation, Leadership, and Discipline.

  • (Smuggler) Gunslinger/Charmer
  • (Smuggler) Pilot/Charmer
  • (Hired Gun) Mercenary Soldier (as long as you use pistols)
  • (Smuggler or Colonist) Gunslinger/Marshal
  • (Commander) Figurehead and/or Squadron Leader
  • (Ace) Hotshot
  • (Guardian) Peacekeeper/Warleader
  • (Mystic) Makashi Duelist
  • (Sentinel) Racer
  • (Warrior) Starfighter Ace (mixed with the above Racer or Hotshot)

It just depends on what you want to use Agility for.

Appreciate the help everyone. The player is leaning towards social build but want to be able to be able to handle themselves when the poop hits the fan.

The group currently has the following:

Warrior/Starlight Ace

Solider/Heavy

Counselor/Healer

Technician/outlaw tech & slicer

Apologizes, I guess I should have stated this originally.

So, how did you end up with a line of Characteristics that is inflexible, but with a very flexible character concept?


Off-topic, I know, I'm just curious.

Marshal, Peacekeeper or Warleader all fit that group really well. So would Mercenary Soldier of Tactician.

How would one of the diplomat specs from AoR work... my favorite of them is quartermaster? Maybe mix with gunslinger? In either order

Or maybe a gunslinger/politico in either order

For commander's I like squadron and commodore, a commodore gunslinger would be brutal... 4 ranks of rapid reaction
