...playing a LS consular much more difficult then a DS consular?

 

Offensive spells are almost impossible because they are DS spells that have waaaay too high power cost as LS.

 

So what, stand back and cast only buff and stun type spells? Throw my lightsaber around like a glowing boomerang? LOL

There's also force wave you know...It's actually better then most DS powers. It's VERY cost efficient.

Force wave owns

Yeah on my playtrough as a LS Consular I discovered how very very usefull wave is... It's effective against droids AND normal enemies, does a lot of damage and stuns them too

Wave, as mentioned, is your major offensive spell ... errm ... Force Power.

 

You are a light side Force Master. Your goal is to maintain balance and harmony through channeling positive aspects of the force. You try to heal and protect yourself, and disable your enemies without need to kill ... or at least soften them up for an easy chop from your henchmen ... errm ... fellow party members

Destroy droid is useful, especially at the end of the game.

Use it to free the souls of the mostly dead jedi from the star forge stasis so Malak can't use drain on them. Stun/disable may also work.

Agree - you'll need either lightsaber throw or destroy droid to do that as a lightsider.

Personally I found destroy droid useful anywhere ... there are droids

you can use force breach as well - this also fully replenishes you force! darkside you can use force grip, but this does nothing for your force meter

Destroy droid works? a bit odd ain't it

[{Sith}-Guyver3]

i find force wave most useful when yiou use the stealth unit and walk to the middle of a large group and send em packing with a blindsided wave

[dark jedi 8]

force wave is the ultimate power! kills anything, anytime. LS consular is pretty easy. the only powers you need are heal, wave, and maybe mind trick. on darkside, thats when you can have fun w/drain, lightning, kill. mind trick is really a better dark side power than light. a must have as well for DS.

[Camcarneyar]

At the end of the day though, who really wants to play LS, the DS is true power, embrace it.

I'm not listening!

Light side consulars while inly really having force wave and throw sabre to kill stuff can have star forge robes and the circlet of saresh giving a stupid amount of force points which simply aren't availible when DS which goes someway to making up for the lack of offensive force powers.

[dark jedi 8]

but if you have a rediculous amount of force points then the LS consular could also have force storm and death field. thats if your not trying to go complete "light" side.

[Poggle]

true i do tend to stick with only LS or neutral powers dunno why? i might try that next time though
