		<description>i feel like after the whole backround story and the mandalorian/sith alliance it only makes sense that one of the playable classes will be a mandalorian</description>

		<description>Why cant there just be 2 other classes w/o jedi and sith.  Maybe it will be a choice to become one or how you do your story.  But what people might not know is that jedis get blapped all the time, only when they become a &#039;knight&#039; or &#039;master&#039; is when they become dominate.  The movies only focus on the more powerful jedi.  idk this game is gonna be BA</description>

		<description>Here is a quote from &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.mmogamer.com/06/11/2009/a-new-hope-for-mmos/3&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;an interview&lt;/a&gt;:

&lt;blockquote&gt;Plus, there’s activities to do like for example, if you’re going to help the Smuggler, and you’re a Jedi-&lt;strong&gt;I can’t talk about the specific Jedi class&lt;/strong&gt;, but there will be Jedi-there’ll be activities for that Jedi to do while the Smuggler is doing his quest, that will help him out.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

So it seems fairly certain to be more than one Jedi class. Unless I&#039;m reading that wrong. He could just be talking about the &quot;Jedi class&quot; specifically. Hmm.

Some sort of &#039;Princess Leia&#039; noble class would be a good bet.</description>

		<description>I&#039;m currently playing in a pen and paper Star Wars game (using WotC&#039;s Saga Edition rules). The class options there are Noble, Scout, Scoundrel, Soldier, Jedi (I think that&#039;s it). Players can later specialise into more focussed classes like Bounty Hunter, Ace Pilot, Crime Lord, etc. Jedi can &#039;go bad&#039; and become Sith, or stay good and become Jedi Masters (combat focus) or Jedi Councillors (less combat focus). There&#039;s a bit more detail to it than that, but it does give an idea of some of the character options available.

There is also no (proper) healing in combat, and Nobles aren&#039;t pathetic in combat, more like Minstrels/Captains in LotRO (sans healing, of course).</description>

		<description>@Mordiceius: You can still support without healing.

I&#039;m not sure if you&#039;ve played Guild Wars, but the Monk&#039;s Protection prayers were a lot more powerful and exciting to play than the Healing prayers, since you had to predict where the damage was going to come, not just watch the health bars on the party menu. The Mesmer, Necromancer and Elementalist were all pretty much pure support, with little in the way of damage - caster shutdown, melee shutdown, condition/hex removal, snares.

There&#039;s plenty to do if you&#039;re not healing people.</description>

		<description>So looking forward to this game.

It would be great no dedicated healing or tanking class as all other MMO&#039;s go.  

Give everyone a minor &#039;oh shit&#039; heal with a long cooldown, but otherwise heal after combat - I like it! Buff before, but everyone has to fight, all work together to succeed. Could be interesting!

As for classes, keeping an open mind and hope it&#039;s not WoW in space, just give us well thought out classes that are fun to play.</description>

		<description>LF Healz - Hutt&#039;s Palace, must know strats and have 2/6 Jedi set. Force Tokens speed run - pst!

Bioware has a unique opportunity to take a strong IP and really do some interesting things to the MMO genre. It&#039;s so early and not enough info has been released but will be interesting to see if they try something new.

Here is to hoping that EA learned you can&#039;t out-WoW WoW with WAR, an they are open to new thoughts and core concepts from bioware. Will be fun to see how this one pans out.</description>
