Star Wars: The Old Republic: Knights of the Fallen Empire

The Man, The Myth, The Legend. 👆

What happens to my existing Companions in KotFE?
When Fallen Empire launches, all of your existing Companions remain accessible to you outside of the story Chapters. In the KotFE story there is a specific cast of characters that is a part of that ongoing storyline.

Is there more combat customization for Companions?
Absolutely, in fact every Companion can now choose any role you choose at any time; healer, tank, or DPS.

How does gear come into play here?
Starting in KotFE your Companion's power and stats scale with your level, regardless of the gear they are wearing. However, you can still use gear to determine exactly how your Companions will look. (note: this is not a part of Appearance Designer)

What about all of that Affection I farmed for my Companions?
We haven't forgotten the relationships you've built; the affection you earned will not be lost and the relationships you built will continue to be relevant.

NOTE: Hero of Tython's Force Persuasion powers do not affect Skytroopers.

That wasn't a skytrooper, it was a Zakuul Knight.

Also, since it's an outlander decision, neither do the Wrath's 👆

lmfao.

Dulfy said it was a "Jedi Knight option only." 👇

How did vitiate have time to run the sith empire, while having one of his voices run another empire and impregnate women? Force god?

Vitiate hasn't been running the Sith Empire for a very loooooong time.

You spelled "The Father" wrong 👆

He was always running it. The question is if he went in search of a new one when he handed control to the dark council.

Yes, yes he was

No. No he didn't. He's left from ruling the Empire on several occasions, and he hasn't currently ruled in over 35+ years.

Yes, yes he was. The Dark council still had to answer to him when he demanded it.

Being able to get the people who run an Empire to do what you want isn't the same as running an Empire yourself.

? This conversation is pretty dumb.

Beefy, you're too well versed in politics and government to not know this so I'm just going to assume your enthusiasm got the better of you. I recall the swtor website saying years and years ago that Vitiate pretty much retreated into his dark researches and left the empire in the hands of the council.

The fact that they still had to answer to him whenever he wanted doesn't mean he was actively running it.

Freshest is right and you know better.

I meant that he was in charge. I wasn't separating him actively running it and being in charge, I was treating both of them the same. No obviously he wasn't actively running it from day to day but they the Dark Council had to answer to him at any given moment.

That's what's important. Freshest was pretty clear about this and the importance of Vitiate's freedom from the day-to-day operations of the empire addresses your original question: how could Vitiate have done all that?

When you're more or less collecting a paycheck and leaving all the meetings and debriefings and strategizing to henchmen, you have plenty of time to fvck around and go golfing and banging a bleach-blonde dimwit a third your age or whatever the hell else you want to do.
