KOTOR 2 - 20th Anniversary

So this year marks the 20th anniversary of KOTOR2, which would mark a great time to introduce more KOTOR2 characters to the game - especially as we already have Visas (who is looking a little lonely).

Around the anniversary dates, we could have sets of marquees as well as having a featured Conquest character (I'm thinking Meetra) with another GL (Revan is the obvious choice).

We could even make more of the Neutral tag (which was started and then left on the shelf??) - as Revan and Kreia are great neutral characters!

My partner and I play KOTOR2 every year, and through this years run we've made some kit options which would boost Old Republic and adhere to their characters in game - they're attached if anyone wants to have a read - it was too long to add into the forum post. But a TD;DR version:

GL Revan: Neutral character synergising with other Neutral and Old Republic characters.
Meetra Surik: LS Conquest character who synergies with Kreia and Revan and being an alternative Old Republic leader
Kreia: Neutral support relying on stealth and turning enemies into allies
Hanhaar:  DS BH and Wookie who gains offence and defence by damaging himself
G0-T0: A Neutral Scoundrel who activates BH contracts and deals additional damage to Droids and Hutt Cartel
Handmaiden: LS attacker while inflicting debuffs on opponents
Canderous Ordo (Mandalore): A Mandalorian tank who inflicts armor shred while taking damage for allies
The Disciple: Jedi Healer who heals allies stacking
Mira: A LS BH who uses her rocket launcher to damage enemies
Bao-Dur: A LS Support who deals Protection Disruption with additional support from his remote
Atton Rand: A ranged attacker who revives whenever he has living allies.
The "Lost Jedi" would also have special uniques which unlock with each other and stack.

Would you guys love to see KOTOR2 characters come to the holotables this year?

      Atris could be a DS Jedi, and the other three could be LS Jedi

        I'd see Atris having a dark and light version

    Oh yes, I would love to see more toons from KOTOR2, definitely.

    And, to your list, I would also add:

    •  Mandalorian Trooper

     

    When these guys were around, the Galaxy was a better place.

  • No to Handmaiden, yes to Briana

    No to Disciple, yes to Mical

    No to Canderous Ordo, yes to Mandalore the Preserve

    Bao Dur should be a lifter for droids or an alternate leader. Really everyone, besides Kreia, should do this: lift or lead.

    Meetra should be neutral and have a passive that changes all allies to Light Side or Dark Side based on composition.

    i love kotor heroes, i remember when they launched a poll in-game to ask for new heroes, back then when we didn't have any kotor character yet, i believe tons of us asked for them, i even asked for Kyle katarn, when i started to see revan, bastilla, and so on i was gladly happy, but katarn wasn't there.. until some years later, and sadly it wasn't grey, he is light but w/e.  I still trust with a Grey katarn using dark abilities.

    Anyway, old republic is quite wide and a lot of tons to be added, i wish the listen again ^^ 

  • I Agree, an Old Republic GL would be great as we don't have one rn

  • I honestly think whenever they decide to release Revan Reborn, it could be the start of whatever tier above Galactic legend to move the game forward

    Jesus f-ing christ NO!  Never wanted KOTOR in SWGOH, still don't have the toons, no plans to ever get them.  The Revan year was a long one where every release sucked.  I do NOT want to see another OR character.  If anything, for the anniversary, they could bring back the marquees for people who originally missed those (or didn't bother), or maybe somehow accelerate the JKR and DR grinds.  But no new characters from this, we have more than enough new characters already anyway.

      Sounds like a you problem. KOTOR is one of the most popular and loved SW games ever and JKR/DR are still powerful units in the game. If you don’t like them that’s up to you

        Lets not forget that it is considered a masterpiece rpg by the mechanics coding... Been awhile since i checked the top 100 list of greatest rpg of all time... Was in the top ten forever... Now I got to check the list might install it on my pc again lol the nostalgia

  • I'm sorry I do agree but I wanna fix some things. Meetra I can see being a journey character needing pretty much all the crew members of the ebon hawk we have like hk t3 & visas plus all you have listed. Bao durr yes can be considered a droid cause of his arm and lead droids(or like the current lobot way of being a droid), this way lifting droids again. I like the idea of atton rand beong a self reviver like whe was in the game. A scoundrel smuggler he can be. He could alos be paired with meetra and or possibly another to pilot a damaged ebon hawk. Mandalore the Preserver can definitely help boost the dark side mandos which I could see being a journey event with some of the named mandos from mandalores camp in kotor 2. A g12 required journey and the mertra being a r5 required one. This would for sure be a big money deal for CG going into KOTOR 2 easily. Also side note I can see a ebon hawk crew tag so that whoever doesn't get a home can hang out under carth lead(with a touchup). Visas getting this tag and hk for sure. 

  • Definitely want Mandalore the Preserver version of Canderous Ordo, G0-T0, and possibly B-4D4-GE3 as a neutral protocol droid, and for ships the Ravager for Darth Nihilus.
