Best lightsaber fighting style

[RobQel-Droma]

What do you think that the best saber fighting style is, from KotOR II?

Form I (1+ attack, 3+ defense, -3 defense against current target)

Form II (3+ attack versus saber wielders, 3+ damage, -5 blaster bold deflection, 2+ force power save)

Form III (2+ defence against current target, +4 blaster bolt deflection, -1 threat range)

Form IV (-2 defence, 5+ defence versus current target, -1 blaster bold deflection, 1+ threat range)

Form V (2+ attack, -5 defence versus current target, 2+ blaster bolt deflection, 1+ critical multiplier)

Form VI (1+ attack, 1+ defence, 1+ blaster bolt deflection, 1+ force powers saves)

Form VII (-4 defence, 2+ defence versus current target, -4 force power saves, 1 extra attack per round, 4+ critical hit attack bonus.

I'm biased as an Obi-Wan fan, but I like Soresu the best. And it's only penalty is -1 Threat range (whatever that means...)

[stingerhs]

hmm, i could've sworn Obi-wan was the master of the defensive form (also known as Form III or Soresu)....

 

anyways, being a fan of Vader's style, Form V, i'd have to go with Shien.

[lukeiamyourdad]

I'm with Moeller. In a time when most people are using blasters, i'd love to be able to deflect everything that comes at me.

That's what I meant to say, just didn't word it correctly. Part of the reason I like it is because it was his form.

[Renegade Angel]

I like moderation (Its a joke, get it?)

[Hallucination]

I like Ataru (IV), 'cause its fun to be aggressive. Not like the games hard enough for the forms to matter.

[darth-enigmus]

All of the forms are pretty good, but I like being able to just stand there and watch my enemys shoot at me and end by dying by their own blaster shots.

 

To put it short, Form III Soresu

[RevanA4]

what bout the niaman x form its REVAN'S for christ sake</rant>

[Darth InSidious]

Ummm, not it ain't

I'm pretty sure Revan used something like Form VIII

 

Based purely on stats, Form IV.

[Kain]

Force Crush form babay!!!

 

Form II for me. If they had blasters I just threw grenades like rice at a wedding.

[RobQel-Droma]

I use my own style-Form VIII

 

2+ defence, 4+ attack versus saber wielders, 3+ blaster bolt deflection, -2 threat range, -1 critical multiplier, 2+ damage, and 1 extra attack per round.

 

Anybody want to fight me? Heheh...

 

Anyways, if I could pick three fighting styles, not counting form 1, ever jedi learns that, I would pick Form II, Form III, and Form VII.

[RaV™]

I guess your only counting the seven forms of combat since there are other forms such as..Sokan, Shien, Niman/Jar'kai, Zero, Dun Moch, and Trakata. (I'm not for sure exactly if saber throw is one, because I find it rather as an attack move, not a form). Well I'd have to go III

[Derc]

I'd pick Form VI: Niman, just from a statistical stand point.

 

Otherwise I'd consider Form IV just because I'm a Qui-Gon fan. ... Or Form II because I love Count Dooku's fighting style. So elegant.

[RedHawke]

Let's see, my saber fighting style forms are...

 

Swing Nasty Sticky Pokey Burny Thing

 

-and-

 

Swing Nasty Sticky Pokey Burny Thing With Penache

 

[stingerhs]

All of the forms are pretty good, but I like being able to just stand there and watch my enemys shoot at me and end by dying by their own blaster shots.

 

To put it short, Form III Soresu

actually, Form III focuses on just simple deflection. Form V, on the other hand, focuses on deflecting the shots back at the attacker. just a heads up.

[REDJOHNNYMIKE]

I always go with JUYO, extra attack and better critical's the way to go, why toy with em when you can annihilate them?

[Darth InSidious]

Mwahahahahahahahahahaha!

Umm....why are you fighting with an electric firelighter?

[RedHawke]

Umm....why are you fighting with an electric firelighter?

Electric firelighters aren't sticky pokey...

 

Those are actually skills from a PnP RPG game called Bar Wars!

 

Bladed weapons were called "Nasty sticky pokey things"...

Energy Blade weapons were called "Nasty sticky pokey burny things"...

 

Of course the ranged weapon classes in that game were good too... they were;

 

Gun...

Big Gun...

Really Big Gun...

Oh My God That's A Big Gun...

Don't Point That At My Planet...

 

 

Back on topic: I'd likely train Form II as I simply wouldn't draw my saber for combat unless my opponent had one.

[Kain]

Best Style Evar: Force Whirlwind with a Sith Assassin. Sneak Attack like a motha.

I already mentioned Shien and Niman- they are Forms VI and something else. But as for the others, I guess I don't know what you are talking about. And yes, I am only counting the seven formsof combat, and I don't consider saber throw a style (?).

Oooh.......

 

So why are you fighting with a lit bar of sharpened candy?

[Prime]

I'm an Ataru fan these days...

[YertyL]

I like Form IV, because it adds to defence vs. 1 opponent and to crit. range - almost perfect for boss encounters. Also I like the idea of dodging enemy hits using acrobatics (Yoda,Qui-Gon,Obi-Wan (Ep1)). Besides, I got Ataru in the lightsaber form test

[tenk]

For me, i'd switch between II and VI, better if they can combine those 2 into 1, certainly can cut clean anybody, jedi or sith, normal enemy...huh just like hot knife on butter
