The armor and weapons are tough to find and expensive, but I have ideas for getting as close to the loadout as I can until I get all the pieces, perform all the modding, if you're interested.
I know, sounds unwieldy, that's why Jury Rigged (reduce Enc) and getting the weapons Stripped Down mods and both weapons and armor Superior quality mod. I have a spreadsheet with what I want for an armor loadout, which has a T-7 Ion Disruptor and Disruptor Rifle with Underbarrel Grenade Launcher mounted to Kav-Dann armor. Those might make sense story wise for a character like you describe, a former imperial trooper who may have experience maintaining his own gear now reduced to having to cobble together what he can in order to make what he has work.Ä«etween the extra wound threshold from Colossus and a loadout with armor that allows the firing of two weapons hands free, you'll be a monster. Colossus looks like a great tree, and if you want to drop some XP into the Bounty Hunter- Gadgeteer and Technician- Modder trees for 4 ranks Jury Rigged and 4 ranks in Tinkerer, you can get a serious suit that would put Predator to shame. If you have all the XP to spend, and want a tank of a character, there's a build I'm looking for for my character that will take a few applications of Jury Rigged and Tinkerer to Kav-Dann armor and two attached weapons. Anyone play any particular spec combo that fits that description and played well in-game? I've looked at the "Retired Clone Trooper" talent tree, and while its fun, it seems more explosives-focused. Essentially, he has unrealized force abilities that click in subconsciously and makes him more durable. I aslo built a Vanguard/Colossus build that looked fun. I seem to be focusing on the Soldier career, and Vanguard spec, since the special ability that comes when maxing out that tree ("The Bigger They Are.") allows me and allies to ignore damage/soak for a single target, lasting a few rounds, once per session. Here's the kicker: I have 648 xp to spend, on top of whatever I get for my race. I started by building for as many class skills as possible, but that ends up requiring a number of talent trees that doesn't exactly scream "military background." And I want this guy to rock the battlefield, but have a few skills outside that to help out on our ship when we're not in battle. As he's a clone, my species choices are "human" or "Mandalorian Human." I've got a couple of builds, but nothing that really stands out as a character that reflects his wealth of experience.
The Verpine Shatter rifle looks awesome, and allows me to snipe with extreme prejudice from a distance.
This turned him against the Imperials and he's joined the rebellion. I'm looking at making an ARC Trooper with a faulty control chip, who watched his squadmates turn on the Jedi and managed to make it out alive. Unfortunately my character was captured last session and I'm going to have to build one. I really think Naboo would be a place where the story would really get interesting if we go there and I really hope that we get to go there.I've been playing in a SW game for a while now. And the place where House Palpatine will be in the future would be a battlefield between the Republic and Empire both. This leaves the Sith Empire, one of the settlements on the planet would become occupied by the Empire and would be the Empire's hub for Naboo. The Gungans to be on neither side and would try to stay out of the war. So the colonists (Mainly at Theed) would be on the Republic side. The way I would approach it is that it is a colony world founded around this time so Theed would be the largest settlement on the world around this time, the colonists were trying to escape the war between the Galactic Republic and the Sith Empire, but war would come to them anyway. The planet has a really good story in the EU and has significance to the overall Star Wars story. The image is of Theed, the capital city of Naboo from the Star Wars prequel trilogy, slated to be a multiplayer map in Battlefront II. On the latest episode of The Star Wars Show, a teaser image of Naboo was shared. A planet I would love to see added to the game would be the planet Naboo, from Episode 1 and 2. Star Wars Battlefront 2 will features a map based on Naboo, the setting for much of The Phantom Menace.
