Not sure if anyone saw a few years ago an alternate spec for Shii-cho knight? Believe someone made it on here while.during beta. Wondering if he play tested it and if he finalized his version?
Shii-cho Knight Alternate Spec
I'm thinking that was @Donovan Morningfire .
Edited by JorArnsYeah, I'd worked up an alternate take on Shii-Cho Knight a while, and actually did alternate versions of most of the Lightsaber Form specs during the beta (most of which were done to account for a proposed revision to Parry and Reflect so that PCs wouldn't feel the need to grab quite so many of them). Most of the Shii-Cho Knight revision was to account for the Form's evolution to incorporate blast-deflect training, as opposed to FFG sticking with Shii-Cho's origins as a purely-melee based Form.
The most recent version can be found on my blog here , and there's an older iteration as well.
I've playtested it a fair bit, and it works out quite well. Yes, it gives the PC a bit more staying power in ranged combats thanks to a couple ranks of Reflect, but losing those two ranks of Parry means it's not quite as burly in one-on-one fights (which makes sense given that Shii-Cho's lack of prowess in duels lead to the creation of Makashi).
