Dancer.
I loved the dance animations, especially formal, lyrical, and exotic. I enjoyed playing the socialite character who chats with the war-weary vets as they come in for a bantha beer. For months I would just log in somewhere near Keren, go to Keren cantina, and dance with a small group of entertainers there. People coming and going via the shuttle would see the blue dots on their radar and come check out the action. The doc who manned the hospital down the hill would come up and jam with us (he had some music skills) when business was slow. There was good RP, and plenty of it, and I had probably the most fun I have ever had in my time playing MMORPGs. Those were the days. C |

This really points out that the original version of SWG was so damn cool. OK, yes, there were bugs and lots of things didn't work as they should have. But when you think about what you could do as a BE, or a CH, or some of the other cool/strange profs they had... or the odd/interesting prof combos you could do, like BE/Chef... there was just nothing like it before, and hasn't been since... and may never be again, sadly.

Doctor/TKM it was such a self reliant template, but always had a secret love of pistols.

I loved my Jedi. I loved knowing that I could be hunted at any time. It took me over a year to unlock and then maybe another 3-6 months to grind it. I was scared chitless the whole time because I was so weak. When I unlocked , I had such a sense of accomplishment words just cant properly descibe it. As far as non-Jedi profession .... I mastered 19 of them so I can't just pick one. I totally enjoyed BH, Master Pistoleer, and Shipwright. I also had a blasst with MCH and MBE. /sigh .... our game is forever gone. |

MCH with Carbineer. Just for the pets baby, for me it was all about the pets. The day my MCH became redundant and was forced to hunt for new employ was the day I left in despair. P.S. Bigfoots can now be found working as a snake charmer in Mumbai..... Proud Master CH - |

Fencer With , pistoleer and Doc . :
I always loved the tells I got from jedi saying . "Wtf, Why in the hell can't I Dizzy or Kd you ? For every minute you are angry , you lose 60 seconds of happiness."-Emerson If you can't argue the point don't say anything at all. |

Fencer by itself sucked. Fencer plus ANYTHING else was the perfect complimentary stack... When I added Fencer to Swordsman... Damn, I could grind Pikets/etc without armor... |

Fencer in no way sucked :P , For one I loved its animations .I'll have to also add just about any profession by itself was worthless in combat . Fencer had a lot of defence oriented stats , Dodge etc... They were also equipped with a decent posture change ability and accuracy , Plus speed . K'd as a fencer were very easy to accomplish , With a simple dizzy posture change . On top of that their speed was only surpased in melee by Tkm's . Who also had high defence but were not equpiped with the dodge bonuses of fencer . So hits tended to be about equal . Not to mention DOts were very common for a fencer , Which was another offensive bonus. For every minute you are angry , you lose 60 seconds of happiness."-Emerson If you can't argue the point don't say anything at all. |

True. My overall favorite was Swordsman, simply because nothing could do as much damage as quickly as a stacked Master Swordsman except a Jedi.. Plus Sword had the best mind attack short of MCM. |

Swordsman could be very hard to beat if played right , And a proper PVP build . Do you remember Dakinn? His old main was an awesome Swordsman /tk/brawler build . He was almost impossible to take down unless I resorted to dots which I rarely did in duels . Not to mention itallion or Virachocha both hard ass people to kill and both dished out insane damage . I almost forgot another huge offensive ability fencers had , Stun damage :P For every minute you are angry , you lose 60 seconds of happiness."-Emerson If you can't argue the point don't say anything at all. |

For me, commando. From pre-launch I wanted to be a commando, and since July 19th 2003 I was a "pure" commando (built my template -around- profession, not used it as a supplement for another) for pre-CU and CU. I still love it because Ive always loved the notion of a special forces group (ie Republic Commando) that are crazy but deadly pyromaniacs and toters of BFGs. |

Few men are born brave. Many become so through training and force of discipline. |

I don't remember the exact temp. but I enjoyed BH/CH. before CH was nerfed the 1st. time. But, once I unlocked Jedi from holo-grinding... that was the most fun, since Jedi had to remain a secret, or end up being flagged by all to attack once the candle was lit. The pvp was fun back then.. *sigh*

Artisan I just loved the crafting aspect of the game. Starting out with just basics and gathering all resource myself could keep me entertained for hours. It didn't really matter what I was making, but I always liked having done something from scratch. That is why I did loads of other professions aswell since they would unlock even more crafting options. |

Pistoleer/Creature Handler/ Some Medic. I loved the first two more than anything and chose to use medic just so I could do some quick healing and make my own decent stims. Lothor Crestingwalker |
