Lunch break is almost over. I can do later tonight.

The new stuff was described earlier. I know people are excited, but honestly, demanding every new thing is getting a little bit much

That's how past spoilers have worked Ms Panda. We want to know all things about the book.

thanks very much

Thanks very much for posting the trees, especially in such a clear format.

Well that's an interesting pattern, a complete lack of crossover until the very end. Clearly you get to pick which areas you want to focus on, and the lack of Force Rating Talent means this tree is very useful for anyone wanting to make a tank for another class - I'd certainly roll this into a Soldier if I didn't want them to ever die.

v						v
Martial Grace		Acklay's Scything Strike (NEW)		Unarmed Parry		Precision Strike

v		v		v		v
Improved Dodge (NEW)		Toughened		Grit		Sapith Sundering (NEW)

Again, not much in the way of crossover, at least on first examination, though I haven't studied every tree in depth for comparison! Still, a very nice tree, which actually could be made to work even if you weren't going unarmed. Indeed, having previously been planning a Guardian who would cross-class heavily into Consular, I'm now instead thinking of doubling down on killiness and going for at least one Warrior tree.

One question on Unarmed Parry - it was mentioned above that it "reduces strain to unarmed Parry by 1 per Rank." Does that apply to each rank of Parry, or only of Unarmed? And can that be used with generic Parry (effectively making all parrying only cost 2 Strain)?

Or one of Aphra’s exploding tookas.

I was going to post that but I couldn’t get it to post.

Now I see why those specs can be so powerful. Dang, Colossus and Juyo will be expensive specs get full power. Steel Hand Adept, though, looks really efficient (as it should be to be based on unarmed combat). And looking at the layout, seems like it will work nicely with Martial Artist.

Also, I love that you have to pass through the dark side talent in Juyo before getting to Inner Peace. So thematic!

Oh wow O_O . I LOVE the layout of this tree! It's freaking amazing!

So now I'm picturing a dowutin Colossus pit fighter to go up against the wookiee marauder in my group. Their characters are 5 years old, plenty of xp, so I have no problem maxing out the trees, characteristics and skills, heh heh heh...

That was done on page 10. Just read back rather than demanding again.

Steel Hand is extremely expensive. 285 xp to get full use of its potential

Some of the like Headbutt I can't find. I've looked through the whole thread.

Here it is, Shlam.

@Haleron & @Khazadune Thanks for taking your time and patience to help us providing information so fast that put the Bothan network to shame.

Forgot to mention about the Duwotin, they have a Sil 1 or 2 when created.

Can someone advise on Steel Hands which talents are force talents , obviously Far Strike , Sapith Sundering , and Acklays Scything Strike, but is Improved Dodge or anything else a Force Talent.

I was just about to ask this, too . Obviously the Conflict talents (Power from Pain, Embrace Your Hate, and Juyo Savagery) are Force talents, but which other ones?

What!! Are you saying you can choose to be Silhouette 1 or 2 when you create the character? Does the choice have any xp cost tied to it?

That would be the first species that has a silhouette of 2.

Correct. It also states that some of the larger but not possibly the largest Duwotin are 4 meters tall and weigh 2 metric tonnes.

Balance and Vaapad control in addition to the conflict Talents you named for Juyo.

Colossus is the conflict one (Power from Pain) and Indomitable Will.
