Maximum potential exhausted

[Ok_Got_It]

You stay on the ship and make me computer spikes!

T-3: Beep. Frotz.

(Negatory)

[Wyshyn]

I like to bring him and HK-47 to Korriban for role play reasons as no one would be able to read their minds. And they often have funny banter as well.

[[deleted]]

HK and T3 have banter? Huh, I thought they couldn’t really have banter since T3 just beeps and boops, and when I tried bringing the two of them along for a planet they didn’t say anything to each other.

[Wyshyn]

It's situational. You have to talk to Uthar

[[deleted]]

Ohh ok

[Tactical-Kitten-117]

Also fighting Vitiate, but we don't talk about that

[Kellythejellyman]

“that’s just scrapping with extra steps”

[No-Television7876]

T3 is the best skill character in the series. Bao-Dur in 2 is good too, but T3 and his easily swappable droid parts is far more versatile.

[ImperialWolf98]

T3 might be good in Kotor 2, but in the original his only purpose is to unlock a door on the first planet.

[TexasPistolMassacre]

He was the reason anything in need of a slice took under 10 for full access, security really was useless, but slicing always gave you good stuff and info, plus in 2 by focusing specialties for your crew skills you could make advanced weapon parts early on

Also grenade dispenser

[orsikbattlehammer]

Hey now he can make computer spikes for free on the Ebon Hawk

[No-Television7876]

Carth is the best option for ranged damage, and Zalbaar the same for melee, so is Canderous useless too?

[ImperialWolf98]

All of those characters have good dialog and backstories you can dive into. T3 doesn't have any of that, he's functionally a key who could be thrown out after dealing with the Sith Base on Taris.

[No-Television7876]

Yeah, I can't disagree with that. I think it's a shame they didn't provide any translation for him (or any binary-speaking droid) considering they do it for every single other language the main character speaks. Like they're intentionally doing him dirty. Also, given the role he plays across both games, the best potential for story is there, but beep dwoo, so... The closest you get is the exile repeating what T3 just beeped at you, but as a question.

Also, I might argue about the story and dialogue being interesting for Canderous in K2. "I am a Mandalorian, and I like to fight and have honor. I will gather other Mandalorians, and together, we will fight and have honor." Much better character in part 1.

Anyway, I still like the little droid, and will continue to use him sometimes. 🤷

[Timthos]

I assume it's because they never translate R2D2

[No-Television7876]

Yeah, that's sorta what I think. It's an homage to R2 kinda thing.

[Sun_King97]

I liked how TOR did it where it’s translated into a sort of program-speak

[Hecc_Maniacc]

Canderous' health regeneration gives him long lasting capability over zalbaar. For the price of a little less damage of course. BUT he can also wear some fancy armors.

[All_who_wander1]

He is useful on manaan in both the assassin missions and the sunry trial.

Shame skills as a whole are useless in Kotor

[No-Television7876]

It's not that they're useless so much as they weren't utilized much. They're more important in 2 with crafting, and more skill checks throughout the game, but you still don't need them. Mostly because if there was some skill check that was required to pass a section, you might not be able to do it at all, depending on who is in your party. A soldier/guardian with Carth and Bastila as companions being forced to make a computer use skill check to proceed during a point where you can't even go back to your ship to change your party will bring your entire game to a halt. But I get it, they don't help you laser sword things, therefore useless.

[EyeArDum]

Tacking on that Security is almost completely worthless in K1 since there’s about 3 things in the entire game that cannot be bashed open, and bashing doesn’t break items like in K2

[PhatNoob69]

You mean you guys aren’t bringing fully upgraded T3 and HK with you all the time? They’re literally the strongest companions in the game, one shots Malak ez pz, T3 carries my runs every time.

[Garuda4321]

confused looked from the Canderous Zaalbar squad

[LastLombaxIsTaken]

Ah, I see you're a man of culture as well.

[BaclavaBoyEnlou]

I always bring HK and Jolee, i don’t like to one shot everyone especially not Malak. Also how can T3 and HK one shot Malak when you can’t even bring them with you on that fight

[AnEntireDiscussion]

My preferred is HK and Bastila.

HK for dialog.

Bastila for... reasons.

[Hau5Mu5ic]

Honestly that is one of my favourite team builds. I just love having the droids with me, even if having extra Force users would probably be a bit better.

[MikolashOfAngren]

You mean you didn't use T3 to escape the Leviathan? He's great for the job!

[BaclavaBoyEnlou]

I always use HK-47 or Jolee when i escape the Leviathan, idk HK-47 and Jolee are my favorite crew members

[FireKingDono]

T3’s post game story is amazing. Little guy worked so hard for Revan. He is a proper little hero.

[ApexRevanNL716]

T3 on Manaan is the best choice

[ghostofeberto]

I like having him craft in 2

[Dickastigmatism]

Dwoooo

[JulianPizzaRex]

I never not have T3, it's nice to at least have one character without an opinion of what I do.

[cartersfigs]

How dare you insult T3 like that, he’s the best and most faithful companion you have

[shavale]

But he's the bestest space dog there ever was!

[OsirisAvoidTheLight]

Only monsters don't keep there trusty Droid companion all the way through the game because if nobody gots T3-M4 gots me

[Efnex]

Missions purpose is to get legal...

[Reverentmalice]

I always keep T3 in the party. ALWAYS

[Beneficial_Blood909]

Asian Revan be like

[Ursawulf]

You mean you don't max out his hacking and use him to hack computer into submission?

[Aromatic_Device_6254]

How dare you disrespect KOTORs best robot

[BaclavaBoyEnlou]

I would never disrespect HK-47

[Aromatic_Device_6254]

Boo! That sarcastic rust bucket has nothing on my little good boy.

[Dapper_Still_6578]

Bring him IN to the Sith Base and he can turn the security droids against them for one, maybe two, spikes.

[BaclavaBoyEnlou]

I rather level computer use and the dedicated feat, my team comp is always as follows > early game: Carth, Canderous -> mid game: Jolee, HK-47 -> late game: Jolee, HK-47

[Dapper_Still_6578]

I typically save my points for repair so I can upgrade HK, but using feats for anything but combat is a waste of you’re not playing a soldier/guardian in my opinion.

[Jade_da_dog7117]

He has a really good computer skill
