SWTOR Class Guide - Should I Pick Jedi Knight Or Sith Warrior?

With the release of SWTOR, you may be wondering whether to choose the Jedi Knights or go for the dark side and follow the path of the Sith Warrior. Each class has their benefits and disadvantages but which one of these is the better class to play as?

Jedi Knight

The Jedi knights are also known as the peacekeepers of the galaxy. They fight and protect the republic from threats that may arise to take them down.

Sith Warrior

The Sith warrior is similar to the Jedi knight but instead of fighting for the republic they fight for the Sith Empire whose sole purpose is to defeat the Republic and then start a galactic domination phase.

Sith Warrior vs. Jedi Knight

In the game the top two predicted classes that will be used are the Jedi and the Sith warriors. The main thing that attracts people to these classes are the lightsabers but apart from that there are plenty features of each class that makes them a good choice to pick from.

Jedi Speed

The Jedi use leather robes as their armour which makes them faster than the Sith are. This means that they are able to evade attacks faster than plenty of other classes and with the ability to use force speed they can bring in attacks to their opposition even faster.

Sith Defence

Unlike the Jedi the Sith will have heavy armour which does mean that they are slower but it does mean that their defence is increased. Benefits of this mean that you can be under attack from multiple enemies and sustain a lot of damage which gives you time to attack your assailants.

Force Powers

Both the Jedi and Sith have access to the force powers however the Jedi have more control of it than the Sith do. Even with this both side have the advantage over their enemies by being able to use these abilities to push, throw, choke, and shock their enemies which can be very effective in situations.

The Jedi force powers are stronger than the Sith and probably is their biggest attribute in the game.

Sith Warrior Melee

Like the Jedi attributes are the force powers the main attribute for the Sith warrior is their melee.

Equipped with two lightsabers instead of one the warriors can kill enemies twice as fast and can take on twice as many enemies when they are in close combat range. When attacking at close range the Sith warrior takes the trophy of being the most deadly.
