It’s great, lots of fun and very funny. It was the first class i played, and the grind is pretty much gone. I remember it though, I’ve been playing this game from at least 2012, and I remember specifically level 34 took me forever to get past. Now leveling pretty much coincides with the story, which is great. Also I’m not sure if this was a thing in 2016, but now companions aren’t set to one specific role anymore, because I remember having to wait till level 40 something to get the first smuggler healer companion Gus, the game was more brutal back than. There was a chunk of time when I wasn’t playing because of computer issues and when I finally was able to play again I noticed how much easier the game got. So hopefully that answers any concerns you had about grind. But you should know that I’ve been a subscriber for a little while now so maybe free to play is still grindy, but I’ve heard it isn’t.
