Return of The Sith...Month (February)

While everyone's talking about ships this month, I'm looking forward to next month. With Sith month coming up in 2 weeks, I'm noticing that it won't give the us the usual amount of time to farm Carth, Cander or Juhani. So that would mean we're not getting Darth Revan, right? Wait, are we getting Death Watch Maul and Savage?! Actually, the one I really want more than those two is Starkiller.

Anyway, I'm sure that we won't be getting Darth Revan next month because of how long it took them to recolor Bastila and code all her abilities to be the exact opposite. BUT they could end up doing the same thing with Galen Marek that they did with Jedi Knight Revan, but not hide him behind such a huge paywall. Could even have two different versions, one of light (Galen Marek) and one of darkness (Lord Starkiller).

So, what kind of Sithy stuff are you guys hoping/wanting for next month?

  • The jedi knight revan we have is the legends canon version. Don't know what you mean by the initial part of his life. Have you played the game?

    Revan was initially a Jedi who went bad and then became the Lord of the Sith. Afterwards he lost his memory during a great defeat and was trained again as a Jedi and yada yada yada.

    I'm not sure what the stories say his choice was after/during the events of KOTOR, but He was represented as both a Jedi and a Sith before any player got a hold of him.

    And the player could decide whether to be a Jedi or Sith after that. There's two endings, one where Revan remains a Jedi and a hero of the Republic, and the other where he reclaims the mantle of Darth Revan and builds an unstoppable fleet to destroy what little remains of the Republic.
  • The release cadence of the second batch of OR toons implies they will be used relatively soon. There's no way they aren't going to leverage them for another panic farm by extending the time we have to farm them past the F2P range. Using similar timing for JKR characters released, you should plan to use the second OR group for some event / reason toward the end of February. I think it will be Darth Revan; hard for me to see Malak being a legendary toon. If DN and Sion weren't legendary worthy, not sure I'm seeing Malak actually getting an event built for him. If anything, Malak will be marquee - synergize awesomely with Revan - and Revan will have the event requiring OR characters. Could be wrong on Revan, but I'd be very shocked if the 2nd OR batch isn't needed for something toward the end of Feb.

    but there were actually stories about that time so he was confirmed to actually be light or dark (can't remember which), not a player choice after that. However, I believe that has been rendered non-cannon. Either way, the player choice thing was rendered moot long before EU became legends.

    He was Light in the EU canon, but my point is that CG wanted Jedi Knight Revan to be the Revan light side players used, that's also why he has the mask, which he only wore when he was Darth Revan. If you read the announcement for Revan from October they say that. So since there were 2 endings in the game, light or dark, I'd say Darth Revan is probably inbound either in February or soon after.
  • For those who either forgot or just didn't see it, remember that JKR was officially announced in a video where they used 4 words to describe Revan as a character. 2 of those words have been used as part of JKR's kit (Savior, Hero). The other 2 words (Conquerer, Villain) are pretty obviously a clue that they plan an eventual release of Darth Revan as a character. It doesn't require any mental gymnastics to arrive to that conclusion. It's not a question of if, it's a question of when, and I speculate the when is within the next month or so (given the release of the second batch of OR characters).
