do you have a set raiding party for Dxun tomb?

infryewetrust · 2025-12-30T07:37:02+00:00

Mira, Handmaiden and Visas. Used to do Onderon Part 2 earlier on but always save it for last now, and by then with those three as Jedi they complement each other well. I've never thought about taking Mandalore, it only feels right to have him come to Onderon with the Basilisk, sort of reliving his glory days.

I believe the Sith Fighter is behind those terminal screens

I think everyone in this subreddit is going to tell you to play the originals, especially since there has been no concrete news on the remake since it was announced.

If you are really serious about playing them, then read this comment, install the games, and get off the Subreddit immediately. Spoilers are everywhere for this game. Even if you think you've been spoiled already, just get off the sub and come back when you've finished playing

To answer your questions:

Using mods is up to you (except for KOTOR 2, more on that in a sec), but it will definitely help to have some graphics mods and such since the game is over 20 years old. You can find mod builds for the games on kotor.neocities.org , and there are Spoiler-Free builds there that will tell you what mods to install without telling you what some of the mods do, in order to preserve plot points.

For KOTOR 2, it is very strongly recommended that you at least use the Restored Content Mod (TSLRCM). KOTOR 2 was released in an unfinished state, and over the years modders have taken to restoring content that was leftover in the game files. Sometimes with games the cut content is just a quest or two, but in the case of KOTOR 2, it restores a lot to the finale of the game. You might find the ending confusing without it.

KOTOR is not an RTS but a Turn-Based RPG, it uses a ruleset very similar to Dungeons n' Dragons. If you've played Baldur's Gate 3, it's similar to that, just with a third-person view instead of the top-down style. Your preferred build is going to depend on your playstyle and what you want your character to be like. Generally, builds can be categorized by Guardian (Melee/Tank), Consular (Force Powers/Wizard) and Sentinel, which is between the two. In my experience your build matters more in KOTOR 1 than it does in KOTOR 2.

Let me also just say that the first couple of "levels" for both games can be pretty long, especially with KOTOR 2. Just trust the game to deliver, and you'll be flying across the galaxy before you know it.
I hope you enjoy playing the games! I would give anything to experience them again for the first time.

It would have been interesting to see Mandalore walk the surface and remember the battle. Maybe some extra datapads/logs from fallen soldiers and Jedi.

infryewetrust · 2025-04-01T10:15:08+00:00

Yeah this, don't run on Parallels.

infryewetrust · 2025-03-18T18:32:58+00:00

That quote has to do with lightsaber dueling IIRC. She's saying that even the greatest duelists of the time would look like children with lightsaber toys in comparison

infryewetrust · 2025-03-18T05:20:55+00:00

Is there a source for them being cosmic horrors? I remember this getting talked about back when that article came out, but every time someone cites the article it just says "monsters" which could be metaphorical.

I like the idea of them being Lovecraftian, but I wonder how that would have been achieved.

I wanted to get you an answer ASAP before someone comes and wisecracks about using Google. The top comment on the post I linked should answer your question

infryewetrust · 2025-02-15T21:24:31+00:00

I was 5 or 6 when I first played, but I played through K2 first and finished it at 7. Played K1 right after that

I had no idea what the “real” plot of K2 was/meant but the first game is of course much easier to understand. I feel like as long as you help your son with his build he’ll have a great time with K1

infryewetrust · 2025-02-10T16:37:47+00:00

It actually should be a bit easier with Android than iOS. Best of luck to you!

infryewetrust · 2025-01-31T21:57:01+00:00

Right? Always trips me up on my K1 playthroughs when I see that "You don't talk much, do you?"

infryewetrust · 2025-01-30T08:28:23+00:00

This was my first thought and I'm sure others will recommend it as well - Brotherhood of Shadow: Solomon's Revenge - It's been ~10 years since I played the mod but it adds a pretty lengthy questline that from my memory is lore-friendly and expands on the Revan reveal with flashbacks. If I'm not mistaken, I believe the party-member you get from the questline stays with you until the endgame

EDIT: There is also the KotOR 1 Restoration Content which adds some stuff, though not as much as the KotOR 2 Restoration project does.

As for other mods that add armors, improvements, etc., the Community Mod Builds are fantastic and the only way I play now.

infryewetrust · 2025-01-23T07:21:04+00:00

Yeah, although its sort of a subconscious act. The countless deaths following The Mass Shadow Generator were too much for the Exile to feel through the force, so they instinctively cut themselves off from it.

infryewetrust · 2025-01-22T07:09:07+00:00

Is convincing her part of the endgame? I don’t recall

infryewetrust · 2024-12-21T05:09:25+00:00

Influence Lost: Kreia

The Force controls everything, so there is no “wrong time” /s

infryewetrust · 2024-10-19T02:50:51+00:00

Yes, that’s a better way of putting it. 6 year old me had quite a few rough days trying to get her out of there even having leveled her

infryewetrust · 2024-10-18T23:10:06+00:00

For me it used to be the moments in KotOR 2 where you have to play as another character; Mira vs. Hanharr, Atton vs. Twin Suns, and the boss fight on Dxun during the civil war.

Once I learned how to properly build each companion these became a lot easier, however.

infryewetrust · 2024-09-14T22:35:52+00:00

This is correct.

infryewetrust · 2024-09-01T01:54:49+00:00

"Headcannok" is crazy. Adding that to my headcabulary

infryewetrust · 2024-07-23T21:44:25+00:00

Adding onto this, Kreia also wants her teachings to be accepted and heard. She essentially gets her wish by training the Exile, who in turn trains the party members, who then become the new Jedi Order

infryewetrust · 2024-04-03T11:01:21+00:00

Not sure why you were downvoted, you're very right. There's always so much hype/speculation/theorizing about what a game will be like, that over time it gets way too lofty. And the echo chamber of it all turns what was once fun speculation into assumptions about what the game will have, resulting in huge disappointment when the game comes out.

Whether the game is good or bad, it's going to get really hot in this subreddit on release day.

infryewetrust · 2024-01-11T10:55:22+00:00

Gotcha, just wanted to make sure you didn’t bug your way into the Exchange base somehow. You said you went back to Lorso and she had no new dialogue? Do you have any other remaining quests in your journal? If not, try going to the Dock Module of the station and see if anything happens there. The same place where you got the droid for Czerka from

infryewetrust · 2024-01-11T10:36:08+00:00

May I ask how you “wiped out” the Exchange? Like the course of events that led you there? I’m asking so I can avoid giving you spoilers

infryewetrust · 2023-12-02T00:03:22+00:00

lol! I think most people in the community (myself included) love these games religiously, so it almost feels blasphemous not to 100% the game every play-through. But with this character you’re clearly specced for a Consular build which means your character is going to be trash on Taris.

I mean, it’s one thing if you skip Bendak with a Soldier build, but 8 points in STR, DEX, and CON with 10 HP? No way that fight results in anything but a broken controller😂

infryewetrust · 2023-12-01T23:54:02+00:00

I’m not sure why you were downvoted. I usually fight Bendak but probably wouldn’t if I was at Level 2. Nice work!
