Guest DarthMaulUK Posted August 2, 2006 Posted August 2, 2006 As the topic suggests! The latest Designer Diary mentioned about such an item in the upcoming expansion; Forces of Corruption. Some folk have told stories dating back thousands of years before the Clone Wars - others claim that it is a myth! As the shroud of mystery is slowly being lifted over Tyber Zann and his bunch of scum - we would love to hear your thoughts and views about this new discovering in the game. DMUK
Darth Andrew Posted August 2, 2006 Posted August 2, 2006 I'm gonna bet it is some sort of Sith holocron possibly from the KotOR era. I don't know, though, since I haven't played those games.
Wolfenstein1942 Posted August 2, 2006 Posted August 2, 2006 Someone told me that they heard it's a power-up for whoever has it. Eh, I'd put money that it's a tactical modifier for the Underworld, as Ilum and Korriban are for the Rebels and Empire.
PoiuyWired Posted August 2, 2006 Posted August 2, 2006 Maybe you put the Holocron in a temple and generates mad $$$?
HerbieZ Posted August 2, 2006 Posted August 2, 2006 Holocron would be predictible, i would say it is some rare sith artifact that harnesses power or something to tie into the Eclipse. Im assuming they would both work hand in hand.
jake123456 Posted August 2, 2006 Posted August 2, 2006 Holocron would be predictible, i would say it is some rare sith artifact that harnesses power or something to tie into the Eclipse. Im assuming they would both work hand in hand. You are probably right. I think we will have to fnd the artifact in the game to power the eclipse's laser.
DarkReborn Posted August 2, 2006 Posted August 2, 2006 the most probable option is a sith holocron, but it may be a crystal with force power (kinda a kybber crystal) to make the Eclipse superlaser(or whathever is that) functonable
lukeiamyourdad Posted August 3, 2006 Posted August 3, 2006 In the article, the Sith artifact seems to be a seperate element from the Eclipse. I believe that artifact is something that can mass corrupt people or something. It keeps the same tone of the Underworld and is not farfetched since well, Sith are known to corrupt.
ImpElite Posted August 3, 2006 Posted August 3, 2006 crazy idea, A LightSaber crystal for that nightsister with the whip-like's lightsaber!!! LOL
DarkReborn Posted August 3, 2006 Posted August 3, 2006 hey! that was my third idea! LOL maybe is something like lukeiamyourdad said a thing to corrupt people, or maybe to control their minds but it sure may be a crystal or a sith holocron(who knows maybe its a severed sith lord skull LOL)XD
Juggernaut1985 Posted August 4, 2006 Posted August 4, 2006 You think Petro or LA will go according to canon?
Admiral Sith Posted August 4, 2006 Posted August 4, 2006 They sure havent so far, so its certainly a possibility. Besides, no one ever said that there was only one. Why only have one, when you have enough resources to build millions?
lukeiamyourdad Posted August 4, 2006 Posted August 4, 2006 The Star Forge is not a Sith artifact. It was made by the Rakata, only to be "stolen" by Revan to produce a Sith armada. Its origins are not Sith. Besides, using the Star Forge would be pretty lame.
ImpElite Posted August 4, 2006 Posted August 4, 2006 Yeah, with the new technology weapons against millennia-old models.... One shot, DEAD.
DarkReborn Posted August 4, 2006 Posted August 4, 2006 Star Forge is boring and old, at all for what do your want millons of ships when you have SDDs Executor and Eclipse? i also think that the emperor will be searching for it at all, its a dark side artifact most surely a holocron, or a force powering crystal
Sithman1138 Posted August 5, 2006 Posted August 5, 2006 I may be blind but...WHAT PICTURE!!!! I've looked everywhere and can't find this picture your talking about!! Can you post it here for my blind self so I can give my 2 cents?
Jan Gaarni Posted August 5, 2006 Posted August 5, 2006 You're not blind. There is no picture. And there is no picture provided because none exist. The SIth Artifact was only mentioned in a Designer Diary.
Sithman1138 Posted August 5, 2006 Posted August 5, 2006 Oh. Okay. In that case. I think it's probably some kind of weapon. You know, for a underworld guy, Typer Zahn sure does want alot of weapons. Where does one hide a 17 kimometer long ship? What does a underworld guy do with one? Anyway, yeah. A weapon of some sort. But holocron makes more sense.
HerbieZ Posted August 6, 2006 Posted August 6, 2006 Actually Star Forge may not be that far off. It could be an old Sith artifact from the Old Republic era, something that ties into a small quest featured in Kotor. They could be really good and make it an item or fixed object that was passed by the palyer on Korriban in Kotor. Althoguh i think im just being a Kotor fanboy now.
Wolfenstein1942 Posted August 6, 2006 Posted August 6, 2006 I just thought, what if it's a power up item for the Rebs and Emp, but if the Underworld gets it, they can ransom it off? I say that since money seems to be the key for the Underworld.
Darth Anarch Posted August 6, 2006 Posted August 6, 2006 I think the Sith artifact will be a McGuffin, an item that's only there in Campaign mode and that gives your troops a boost or unlocks some unit or other in the campaign. My guess is that it will mostly be a story device to keep the story moving forward and not something you can install in your base for any special effects.
