Returning player with a few questions

New/Returning Player

I played I think two years ago because I was off the hype for the KOTOR games. But thanks to the last Jedi movie I want to come back here.

So I want to know a few things:

  • Is a light side Jedi Vigilance Guardian still a pretty viable build if I wish to participate with a team?

  • I have Biochem, Bioanalysis, and Diplomacy. How can I use those skills to make credits at level 31 to fund my skill level ups?

  • Is adding modification to orange armor shells still the way to go when it comes to gear progression? If so, then I will need to make more credits.

I hope to get my questions answered and I wish everyone a happy Lifeday.

  • Yes still viable.

  • Skill level ups are now free. In general leveling greatly outpaces crew skills. When you get to end game you can craft yourself reusable medpacs, adrenals and stims with that crew skill set.

  • Yes, by the time you get multiple characters to end game it pays to invest in legacy bound orange armor shells to share gear between characters. However gearing requirements while leveling has been greatly relaxed so I wouldn't worry about this until close to max level.
