Thread: Template for starting off a Jedi
keep tkm for the innate armor till you have some jedi defences. CoB can be used with a macro that /unequip-CoB-equip the saber.
Drop pikeman only when you are capped in jedi exp so you can stay as close as possible to lev80. Drop doc when you pick healer up.
.Because you will hear many many many opinions I will say nothing about what template is the best or what not . In the end it will be still your decision so I would say just start and decide during the process. Only thing is if you want MDoc do it before you start working on any jedi skill maybe.

Thank you! I never thought of the /unequip saber CoB macro. I think I could make one of those just fine.
I think I will stay close to 80 with either pikeman or doctor. In any case, I will not have more than maybe 4 or 5 skill points open at any time after I hit padawan. I'm not picking up healer, I really want to be able to Revive
And about the innate armor, why can't a Jedi just wear a suit of RIS or something? Are they ... not certified I guess?

as far as I remember CoB function only when unequipping LS, using CoB and reequip. Revive in btw works perfect with the right Cyberarm
I had a revive cyberarm, but sold it once I foundoutI need JTL to attach it 
Besides I am looking forward to Advanced Bacta Jab and all the extra healing ability. I think it will help me stay alive against a BH even if I don't have something like Warcry or Intimidate to hinder their attack. Hopefully....
And how does someone without Jedi Defender skills stay alive? No innate armor ... and I don't see Jedi wearing armor come to think of it. Is the only other way to get defense from getting Enhancer skills?
I won't give you advice on what Jedi stuff to get, as that is a matter of taste.
But for survivabilty...looking at your template, that is an easy one. Two things stick out immediately.
-Do not worry about your saber's compatability with anything at this point. If you want to survive, the first thing you should do when you see a blue dot is ditch the saber. Until you get high in the LS trees and get a good saber, the only thing the saber will do is get you killed. You will want to fall back on your normal profs to defend yourself.
-That being said, it seems the obvious choice is to hang on to your Doc and TKM skills as long as you can. The defense and healing should keep you alive long enough to either win or to run.
Some of this will become more obvious to you...especially when you make your first few sabers and realise how sucky you are with it (and how sucky the saber is in and of itself).
Good luck!
Dude, you will totally be disappointed if you go for Jedi.
This isn't what the movies portray in case you havent watched a Jedi duel yet.
Please if you like to be strong, keep your current template.
Play a real Jedi game if you like what you see in the movies.
Stay in your current template is you like to be uber.

I've played this game for a year and a half, I am veryprepared for disappointments 
Really though,I don't care about being uber. I don't want to show off dueling in Theed and offering 1 milllion credits to anyone who can beat me. I don't want to spend millionson capping out my speed and buying quality pearls which will probably tune like crap anyway. All I want is to hang out and talk to people and look at my pretty lightsaber once in a while without having Mark-Anthony and Arp and Camel Man'Sam kill me in three shots if (and most likely when) I get on the terminals! And yes, I have played KOTOR, it is a fantastically made Star Wars game. But sometimes you just wanna hit on a dancer or something you know?
Lastquestion though.... Still wondering why Jedi don't wear armor and be pikemen.
