Which is More Powerful - The Star Wars: the Old Republic Jedi Knight or Jedi Consular?
For fans of Star Wars, the upcoming launch of Star Wars: the Old Republic is more than huge. The most popular discussion is of course the available classes. What the Star Wars based MMORPG translates for many gamers is the chance to become their idol, whether it's the popular Han Solo, Luke Skywalker or Darth Vader. An aspect of Star Wars: the Old Republic that differentiates it from the other traditional MMOs is the ability for gamers to manage their own crew, have a companion all the way through and the widely discussed space combat.
The game will be launched with two main allegiance, the Galactic Republic and the Sith Empire. When it comes to the Galactic Republic, the two classes that stands out are none other than the Jedi Knight and the Jedi Consular. Star Wars is all about the force, as the popular saying goes, 'May the force be with you'. As such, these two force-sensitive classes have rendered many gamers indecisive which class to test out first. Many may question, 'why fret, you can always spend time playing both'. For lots of fans, that is besides the point. The race to the level cap and being the first of your selected class to achieve a quest, mission, obtain that rare item or hit the level cap is an unimaginable pride, beyond words could describe.
Very briefly, it's possible to say, if you like to hack and slash, then go for the Star Wars: the Old Republic Jedi Knight class. Does that mean the Jedi Consular is bad on the battlefield? Actually not and against certain enemies and certain situations, might even deal more damage than the Jedi Knight. Basically, the Jedi Knight offers two specializations, the Sentinel and the Guardian. The Jedi Sentinel is a damage dealer and posses some of the best melee abilities while the Jedi Guardian is more or less a tank with skills such as buffing and inspiring allies. If taunting enemies and the ability to wield two light sabers at once is your thing, then you're looking at the Jedi Knight.

The Jedi Consular can easily be pictured by Master Yoda. Seemingly fragile with the need to use a walking stick, this Jedi Consular is very wise and an abundance of energy on the battlefield. Some of the Star Wars: the Old Republic Jedi Consular skills are those such as telekinetic blows that is a 'slowing' ability and those such as force waves that acts like an invisible shield to repel attacks on the Jedi Consular. The class offers two advance classes: Jedi Shade and Jedi Shadow, both of which are highly force-based. For a full account of the advanced classes, visit http://www.swtorjediconsular.net/swtor-jedi-consular-class/star-wars-the-old-republic-jedi-consular-advanced-classes/ . Fans wishing to focus mainly on the force and not at the front-line of battles, the Jedi Consular may be more suitable.
