SECTION 1

KNIGHTS OF THE OLD REPULIC
SECTION 1: CHARACTER SETUP

CHARACTER CLASS: SCOUT JEDI CLASS: CONSULAR

You will begin with “CHARACTER GENERATION”. You have two options, Quick Character or Custom Character. It is always more fun to customize so select that option.
You will then see a list that begins with “Portrait“. You can select the look and gender of you character.
Next is “Attributes”. This is very important because it dictates what your character will be able to do.

SECTION 1- A : ATTRIBUTE SETUP

The first thing you want to do is max out your Intelligence to 18 points. This will give you more points to distribute to your skills such as “Persuade” and “Demolitions”. Persuade is a very important skill to have as a Scout/Consular.
Then you should give 14 points to Charisma. This will enhance your ability to Persuade.
Next, give 12 points to your Wisdom. You will need plenty of it once you become a JedI. It controls the level of Force Points each Force Power needs to work. Higher Wisdom means less points are needed to use Force Powers.
Give 10 points to Strength and 10 points to Dexterity.

You will gain Attribute points as you progress through the game. DO NOT ADD ANY TO INTELLIGENCE! You will have enough to beat the game. Instead, add points to Wisdom & Charisma because you will want to be sure to have plenty of Force Points and be able to Persuade easily. You are a Jedi after all.

BELOW IS A CHART FOR ATTRIBUTES:

SECTION 1- B: CHARACTER SKILLS SETUP
You can now setup the base Skills your character will start out with.

You should be able to max everything out except Stealth. Make sure you max everything else before you add to stealth points.

As you progress, you will want to try and evenly disperse you skill points.

COMPUTER USE - This gives your character the ability to use and access various computer terminals throughout the game. Even though you can now access computers, you still need to use Computer Spikes. The higher the COMPUTER USE variable, the less Computer Spikes you will need to do tasks.

DEMOLITIONS - The higher the Demolitions variable, the better you will be at diffusing and recovering mines. You must try to keep your Awareness points as close to the Demolitions points as you can. Awareness allows you to see the actual mines. Mines can make good money if yo sell them to local merchants.

STEALTH - I like to get at least 1 Stealth if the points are available. If not, wait until your next Level-Up. As long as you have at least 1 point you can use the Stealth ability. The larger the Stealth points, the closer you can get to enemies without them seeing you.

AWARENESS - Awareness simply dictates how far away your character can see objects and enemies. It is also helpful to have a high awareness when looking for mines that are hidden, as mines get more deadly as the game progresses.

PERSUADE - This is very important to a Jedi. It allows you to persuade characters into doing your will. When you get Force Powers later on, you can use Force Persuade, which opens up new dialogue and situations.

REPAIR - This skill is essential for repairing damaged Droids. Droids can help you in battle and other handy tasks. You also gain Experience points by repairing damaged Droids along the way. Also, when you acquire HK-47, you can repair him to learn a little of his history and to boost certain attributes he possesses.

SECURITY - A high security skill gains access to heavily secured doors, equipment holds and other areas.

TREAT INJURY - A high number of points means higher fortitude and better healing abilities when you or your party are injured.

BELOW IS A CHART FOR SKILLS

SECTION 1- C: CHARACTER FEATS

Character Feats allow you to specialize your character. Refer to the starter booklet that comes with the game for specific Feats and their definitions.

The Scout/Consular works well with the following Feats:

Always max out Feats. Don’t try to get all of them, just certain ones that are more useful than others.

Two-Weapon Fighting - Allows the character to wield two weapons and double-handed weapons with little or no penalties. This will be the first one you want to select and keep building up so you can soon start using two weapons effectively. Don’t even bother using two weapons until you are at least second level with this one.

Empathy - Boosts points to Persuade, Awareness and Treat Injury.

Flurry - Works very well when it is maxed out, basically giving you a 100% Chance To Hit on every attack. It is a good Feat to choose first.

Once these basic Feats are filled out, you can then start to really customize your character. NOW THAT YOU ARE SET UP, JUST ENTER YOUR NAME AND START THE GAME!
