Sei Teirson Posted August 24, 2005 Author Share Posted August 24, 2005 Veiw the original thread HERE ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- [Jedi Template Guides] All You Need to Know About Jedi Professions and Specific Templates THE PURPOSE Jedi are very proud of their templates... Every time someone asks for template advice, you see a bunch of Jedi flocking in and posting their own template in there, adding their two cents, whether or not it helps the original poster. The bottom line is at least 50% of the Jedi forum posts discuss templates one way or another, and we see a lot of repeats over and over. I figured it was time we had one great compiled template and profession resource for all Jedi and wannabe's who need to either pick a template, modify the one they have, or just learn about their own profession or template. In this post you will first find some guides to the individual Jedi professions, hopefully someday soon we will have guides to all 5 of them. Thanks to MsNil, JediMasterKai and jimcabtv we already have a few. These guides are meant to analyze one of the 5 jedi sub-professions from all angles, without really bothering too much on the other skills that can go in them. How to use them in template variants would be helpful, of course. I will maintain the links in this post and hopefully Baciacca can sticky this thread. I'll try to have no more than 1-2 guides per profession. I would rather have people post in the individual guide threads and add info so the original poster can keep them updated. If a thread becomes too old and the data is obsolete and the original poster won't update it, I will either remove it or see if someone wants to copy the original content and start a new thread with updates. Other people, like me, will actually write a full template guide about one specific template to help others decide whether or not this template is for them. There could be quite a few such guides and I hope people will follow my lead and write in detail about their own template. I would certainly invite key Jedi forum figures like Baciacca, MsNil and SonGouki to do the same an inform us on why they play the template they picked, and what are the good and bad sides, along with tactics and such. I would like to thank our correspondent Baciacca for making this thread a sticky to make sure it remains a central resource where everyone can come and read about templates. To everyone else, please post your comments if you feel this is a useful thread, and make sure to post suggestions on threads (including a link please) that should be added to this compilation. I cannot promise every suggested thread will be added here, but I promise to look them over and at least comment on why one did not make the cut, and how it could be improved. And now, without further ado...

Sei Teirson Posted August 24, 2005 Author Share Posted August 24, 2005 Another great post for template advice. Original post HERE ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ [Publish 19 : **** Update to Include NEW Force Armor templates, and NO HEALER Templates(duelist) New Templates will be in purple for easy finding Up to 50 templates total!!!] [Publish 18 : We now have over 30 template combos and more coming!. Feel free to use this guide to your pleasure, or add to it by responding your template(if not listed) and how well you like it and rate it. **Added a list of the NO Lightsaber Templates that have been submitted (Listed at bottom of templates section) **Initial Update and Polish on existing templates] Welcome Jedi. It is obvious you are well off on your journey at this point, and you are seeking advice as to which path to follow. This guide will help give you direction, and show you what is possible for you to acquire. Let me preface by saying the most important thing to choosing your finished Jedi template is that it is a template that You want to play with. Do Not choose it because it may be a temporary FOTM. Fads usually fade, and balance is the ultimate goal of the game design. Taking that into consideration, one will be left with a plethora of choices as to what finished template to choose.. Without further adue.. Template Guide : -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- DOUBLE MASTERY COMBOS : Lightsaber Mastery Combos: 1)*****Master LS/Master Defender/Healing 3xxx/Enhance xxx2 FP = 6550 This is a VERY good template. Could easily be considerd one of the TOP Jedi double masteries due to its dominance of both Defense and offense. This is the most popular defender/LS mastery combo. Weakness = none 2)****Master LS/Master Defender/Healing 2xxx/Enhancer xxx3 FP = 6550 This a great template, it allows for tons of dps, as well as supreme tanking abilities. The healing should be able to sustain you in 1 on 1 battles, and chanell force can be a must have. The change here is drain for Improved infusion..(this was more of a pre-pub 19 template) Weakness = no improved infusion 3)****M Lightsaber/M Defender/Powers 44xx FP = 6850 4)****M Lightsaber/M Defender/Powers 4x4x FP = 6850 Thats right, NO healing in this template! This is a total duel template, that not many (if any) can stand against. Massive DPS from MLS, and Powers, then its Turn on avoid incap and lay your opponent out! Weakness = **Stasis from Enhancer is this templates NEMESIS** No healing, force intensive, must use stims. No run, no channel no meditate 5)****M Lightsaber/M Defender/Enhance 4xx4 FP = 6850 Another tremendous template that forgoes the force for healing. Stims required, dps is massive, avoid inacp is handy, Force run, and mediate can be greatly used to prolong your battle times and downtime. Weakness = **Stasis from Enhancer is this templates NEMESIS** Must use stims, AI = force intensive, snared when AI is on. 6)*****Master LS/Master Defender/Healing 44xx FP = 6850 This does not have drain, or channel, but what in lacks in those areas it more than makes up for with superb healing, enabling you to heal your damage and wounds, as well as those of others. For those who do not use channel, this or #7 could easily be considerd the most popular LS/D combo. Weakness = no target control, no channel or drain force 7)*****Master LS/Master D/Heal 4x4x FP = 6850 This is a GREAT all around template. You get the best of both offense and defense.The ability to heal greatly, and control a targets action regen making them unable to attack with great force. For those who do not use channel, this or #6 could easily be considerd the most popular LS/D combo. Weakness = no force run, no channel force, no force drain 8)*****Master LS/M Enhance/Heal 4x4x FP = 6850 With this template your able to have outstanding offenseive output, and a defense that You control through force abilities. Healing as well as target action drain are also very usefull. This template is quickly evolving into a FOTM (ost pub 19) Weakness = no "innate" defenses, no self wound healing 9)*****Master LS/M Enhance/Heal 44xx FP = 6850 This very popular template is still able to hold its own . This indeed is once again a popular choice for any Jedi. (post pub 19 another of the MOST Popular double mastery)Weakness = force intensive. 10)****Master LS/Master Healer/Enhance 4xx4 FP = 6850 With this template, you receive the ability to heal any ailment out there, as well as still having a good Jedi dps. The ability to run at super speeds, and control your force management. weakness = NO defense. It can be healed out of, but force intensive. 11)****Master LS/M Powers/Enhance xxx2/Heal 3xxx FP = 6550 This is all about offense. This template is able to dish out a serious amount of dps, at the drawback of very little defenses. This is a template that can be very fun to play, but very force intensive. Managaing it wisley, and timing your moves on the battlefield are key. If you are a grouped Jedi, expect to be doing two fold damage over those around you. Weakness = no defense, force intensive 12)****Master LS/M Powers/Heal 44xx FP = 6850 13)****Master LS/M Powers/Heal 4x4x FP = 6850(Target Action Sap) This is alot of fun, but one must be carefull not to draw all aggro from the group. The high DPS will have you outdamaging most of the group, and the area moves can only complicate it more. This template needs to be used very cautiosly to be extremely effective. Weakness = no channel , force intensive, no defense Master Powers Combos: 14)****Master Powers/Master Healer/LS x4x4 FP = 6850 Another very force intensive template. It is however effective and fun for both pve, and pvp. Again with this template you are not a tank, but a damage dealer. Weakness= no defense, can be healed out but very force intensive 15)****Master Powers/Master Defender/Heal 4x4x FP = 6850 This template is all about the force. No lightaber in this template at all. You rely on the dark side powers to dish out your damage, your defense and healing abilities should be able to hold most attackers off for a while. The sap line in healing will further help to control a target through use of the force. Weakness = no drain or channel force abilities 16)*****Master Powers/Master Enhancer /Heal 4x4x FP = 6850 Template Write up From SWGHOTTIE. Again, like the template above, another NO LS template. This template is VERY force intensive, but comes with alot of benefits. They have the ablility to use the force with blinding speeds, and enhance their bodies to be able to susutain a tremendous amount of incoming attacks. If all else fails , the ability to escape with ease is ever present. Weakness = force intensive. 17)****Master Power/Master Defender/Healer 3xxx/Enhancer xxx2 FP = 6550 This is a very good Solo Powers Template, It combines great defense with tremendous offense. The ability to heal damage, as well as channel force are present. This is a No LS template. Weakness = lowerd DPS,Lack of run or speed. Master Healer/Defender/Enhancer combos: 18)*****M Healer/M Lightsaber/Enhance 44xx FP= 6850 19)*****M Healer/M Lightsaber/Enhance x4x4 FP= 6850 These are two very good M Healer templates Both have tremendous DPS and healing ability, and they back that up with Force armor, and force run OR meditate. Weakness = force intensive toe to toe. Cant have BOTH run and mediate, must choose. 20)*****Master Healer/Master Defender/LS x4x4 FP = 6850 Supreme tank, none better for group or solo play. This template is SUPREME at PVE and very very good for pvp as well. This is a very very popular template for Light Jedi.. Weakness= no drain or channel, slightly less dps. 21)*****Master Enhancer/Master Healer/LS x4x4 FP = 6850 This is very similar to # 20 , exchanging inate armor for an enhanced tank and supreme support role. Stasis is VERY powerfull. This is again a very very popular template for Light Jedi. weakness = force intensive defense toe toe slightly less dps -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- DABBLER TEMPLATES (Single Mastery) Lightsaber Mastery Combos: 22) ****Master LS/Defender xx44/ Heal 41xx/Enhance 4xx4 FP = 6125 This template gives the user all of the sabers and moves, as well as defense enhancments like Aura and Valor It has the ability to heal damage and wounds, as well as escape, chase and manage force. A very well rounded template for NOT having a double mastery. weakness = Force pool 23)****Master LS/Defender 44xx/Heal 41xx/Enhance 4xx4 FP = 6125 This is similar to the above template, except in place of aura and valor, you take innate ranged and melle defenses. This template is suitable for those who dont want to have to manage their defensive buffs. weakness = force pool 24)****Master LS/Defender 4x4x/Enhancer 2xx3/Healer 4x4x FP= 6050 This template gives you good tanking abilites without the need for Master defender. It also covers the basic pvp needs of enhancer, while giving all the benefits of damage healing and sap, as well as the DPS of a Lightsaber Master. A truly well rounded template. weakness = force pool 25)****Master LS/Defender xx4x/Enhance 3xx4/Heal 31xx/Powers x4xx FP= 5975 Fun to play, good dps, enough defender to get by, good damage and wound healing Good control of the force. Weakness = Lowerd Force pool, must stay on aura for defense to be adequate 26)****Master LS/Defender 434x/Heal 4xxx/Enhance2xx4 FP= 5875 ****MasterLS,/Defender 444x/Heal 4xxx/Enhance3002 Good dps, good defense, good heals, good force magagment. Easy to play and solid. Weaknes = low Force pool 27)****Master LS/Powers x4xx/Heal 4xxx/Enhance xxx4/Defend 4x4x FP=6225 High Dps,give BH's the runaround by cloaking. Heal 1500 damage and Improved Force Infusion is just great.Channel, Meditate and Improved Force Wave. Improved Force Aura, 4200 Inntate Jedi Armor and good Melee Defender. Weakness = Lack of a speed run,lower ranged defense. 28)*****M Lightsaber/Enhance 44x4/Heal 41xx/Powers x4xx FP = 6125 29)*****M Lightsaber/Enhance 44x4/Heal 41xx/Powers 4xxx FP = 6125 This is an awesome template that basically covers all the bases. You get tremendous DPS in MLS, as well as sufficent Defense with FA2. The healing, and wound healing will come in handy, and for fun, or style you can choose to go with any one of the powers lines to suit you. FR2 and cloak are very good friends. Weakness= force intensvie if standing in one spot taking a beating. 30)*****M Lightsaber/Enhance x4x4/Heal 4xxx/Powers x4xx/Defender xx4x FP = 6225 This template is similar to above, except that you are foregoing force run for more melle defense, as well as force Aura. Weakness = no force run, more of a duelist template. 31)*****M Lightsaber/Enhance 44x4/Healer 41xx/Defender xx4x FP = 6125 This template is also more of a duelist template without having to get master defender. The FA2, and the Aura stacked with foods, will enable you to tank any other Jedi for a period of time. Great dueler template that dies not force you to be master defender and spread yourself thin. Weakness = 20 minute + duels will wear you thin on force. Master Defender Combos: ULTIMATE TANK TEMPLATE 32)*****M Defender/Enhance x4xx/Healer 41x4/LS x4x4 FP = 6125 This is a pure tank template as you have FA2 to go with Master Defender. This will nuke those armor breakers, as the two skills together will lower your damage intake further than alone. You have wound healing, and state healing, to help when under pressure. This template can take ALOT of damage. Weakness = no channel, no force run. Normal situation will have above max armor.(negating it) 33)*****M Defender/Heal 4xxx/Lightsaber x4x4/Enhance 32x4 FP= 6050 This template covers the Best of all defense from Jedi.. Self succient healing coupled with Force armor, and the art of defender. Force speed as well as run 1 well come in VERY handy. Weakness= lowerd force pool 34)*****Master Defender/LS x4x4/Heal 41xx/Enhance 4xx4 FP= 6125 This is a well rounded template, and at this time is probaly the FOTM (pub 18). It has a good dps from two-handed saber with it armor break capabilites, as well as supreme tanking from the Defender art. The ability to manage the force and run at great speed, as well as healing of wounds and damage. This is a cookie cutter template, but it is good for both pve, and pvp alike. weakness = force pool, slightly lower dps 35)****Master Defender/LS x444/Heal 3xxx/Enhance 2xx4 FP = 6050 This is similar to the above template, excpet you are picking up more saber line, and more accuracy with a saber. Weakness = force pool, slightly lower dps 36)****Master Defender/LS x4x4/Heal 4xxx/Enhance xxx4/Powers 4xxx FP= 6225 37)****Master Defender/LS x4x4/Heal 4xxx/Enhance xxx4/Powers x4xx FP= 6225 Both of these similar templates are good for Dark Jedi defenders. One offers a line of Lightning specials, the other offers the vaunted cloak ability. weakness =lack of enhanced speed or run, slightly lower force pool 38)****Master Defender/LS x4x4/Enhancer 3xx4/ Healer 4x2x FP = 6050 39)****Master Defender/LS x424/Enhancer 3xx4/ Healer 4xxx FP = 6050 IIf stun becomes better for hurting someone's action i could see this being a better alternative (swap sap for stun). Many Jedi like to stand their ground and live or die, this is a great template to accomidate that. weakness = force pool Master Enhancer/Healer Combos: 40)*****M Healer/LS x444 Enhance 44x4/ FP = 6350 This is a great Healer/Enhancer template that can get out of just about any Jam while still able to help friends and play a support role. This template can also tank ANY Jedi or most mobs for an extend period of time due to healing and force amror. Weakness = force intensive 41)*****Master Enhance/LS x4x4/Heal 414x/Powers x4xx FP = 6125 Force Drain, Stasis, FR3, Force Armor,Cloak,Heal - 1500 pts + Sap Basically a support role with barely any Def, but very fun. a very very popular pvp template. Activate FA and put up a fight with your saber. If things are getting a bit hairy, hit your enemy with a Stasis, sit down, Heal/Channel, /lol , and either start fighting again or FR3/cloak out of there. Weakness = lack of inante defense, somewhat force intensive 42)****Master Enhance/LS x4x4/Heal 41xx/Defender xx44 FP = 6125 43)***Master Enhance/LS x4x4/Heal 41xx/Defender 44xx FP = 6125 This offers a wide range of Jedi abilites, from enhancing , to healing, to defending, all in one punch. Stasis is a beautiful tool. Weakness = force intensive,slightly lower dps Master Power Combos: 44)*****M Powers/LS x4x4/Enhance 34x2/Heal 4xxx FP = 6050 This template has an insane DPS with M Powers, and the 2 handed saber line. Plenty of ranged attacks, as well as FA2 and Healing to keep you alive. Running, and channel are able to be used when needed. This is one solid pvp template IMO. Weankess = Force intensive defense 45)****Master Powers/LS x4x4/Enhance xxx4/Defender xx4x /Heal 4xxx FP = 6225 This template is a ture dabblers dream. It add the DPS of Master Powers, with the art of the Saber. It has enhanced defense through Aura, controlling of the force through enhancer, and Damage healing through healer. weakness = Defense 46)****Master Powers/Enhancer 4404/LS x4x2/Heal 3xxx FP= 6050 Excellent Crowd control abilities,Force Intense, but managable. Able to dish out alot of damage at ranged, and enhance your speed and weaken your opponent when time to go melee. Weakness = Forse intensiveness 47)****Master Powers/Enhancer 4xx4/Heal 4xxx/LS x4xx/Defender xx4x FP = 6225 Choke, lightning, area intimidate, area knockdown and force cloak are all abilities that can be good if used at the right time.Force run 2 for getaways, Improved force speed for faster attacks. Weakness = relaiabilty on aura 48)Master Powers/ Heal 414x/ Enhance 4xx4/ Defender xx4x FP = 6125 Very good Group PvP template. You have the 1500 heal plus Improved Infusion and Wound Healing. Force Aura for defense. You have the ability to escape well if in trouble via Force Run or Cloak. Force Sap which is very helpful when fighting those MLS or Riflemen. Force Shock, as well as Force Throw and Mind Blast with there state effects. You have a root and a snare. Also the skills that should be a requirement for Master Powers templates Channel, Speed, and Meditate. Weakness= Poor Solo survivability. This template is more a support template. Don't expect to be able to solo alot of things. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- PURE DABBLER TEMPLATES (NO Masteries) 49)****Healer 4xxx/Enhancer 4xx4/Defender xx44/Powers 44xx/LS x4x4 FP= 5725 True Dabbler template w/ no mastery. It offers a very flexible setup That offers really the best of each of the trees. This is a very doable and fun template to play if you want a taste of it all. Weakness = Low Force pool, must stay on aura for adequate defense Recap of NON-LS Jedi Templates (as per above) 11) ****Master Powers/Master Defender/Heal 4x4x FP = 6850 12)****Master Powers/Master Enhancer /Heal 4x4x FP = 6850 13)****Master Power/Master Defender/Healer 3xxx/Enhancer xxx2 FP = 6550 32)Master Powers/ Heal 414x/ Enhance 4xx4/ Defender xx4x FP = 6125 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Recap of PUB 19 added Templates (as per above) 3)*****M Lightsaber/M Defender/Powers 44xx FP= 6850 4) *****M Lightsaber/M Defender/Powers 4x4x FP = 6850 5)*****M Lightsaber/M Defender/Enhance 4xx4 FP = 6850 18)*****M Healer/M Lightsaber/Enhance 44xx FP= 6850 19)*****M Healer/M Lightsaber/Enhance x4x4 FP= 6850 28)*****M Lightsaber/Enhance 44x4/Heal 41xx/Powers x4xx FP = 6125 29)*****M Lightsaber/Enhance 44x4/Heal 41xx/Powers 4xxx FP = 6125 30)*****M Lightsaber/Enhance x4x4/Heal 4xxx/Powers x4xx/Defender xx4x FP = 6225 31)*****M Lightsaber/Enhance 44x4/Healer 41xx/Defender xx4x FP = 6125 32)*****M Defender/Enhance x4xx/Healer 41x4/LS x4x4 FP = 6125 33)*****M Defender/Heal 4xxx/Lightsaber x4x4/Enhance 32x4 FP= 6050 40)*****M Healer/LS x444 Enhance 44x4/ FP = 6350 44)*****M Powers/LS x4x4/Enhance 34x2/Heal 4xxx FP = 6050 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I have given my own personal rating via a * system With 5*'s being the best. (this is to indicate how well they work at this point in time) Please note* Where Lightsabers x4x4 is installed, it can be substituted with either 4xx4 or xx44, the only benefit of x4x4 is the saber armor break skill. If you only take 2 trees in Defender,alot of Jedi prefer 4040 and 0440 over 4400 or 0044. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Please feel free to add any other templates you have found to be effective. I will update this list regularly. Enjoy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martok Posted August 24, 2005 Share Posted August 24, 2005 What are your opinions on templates Sei? Am I reading your post correctly, that it is the one from the jedi forums of SWG site? I'm interested to hear your thoughts, as well as the other jedi's in game. I'm very interestred in MPowers templates.... I'd almost consider a glass cannon template of Msaber and Mpowers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sei Teirson Posted August 26, 2005 Author Share Posted August 26, 2005 Mpowers / MLS is a great template .. although you forget about some necessities that I see as vital, especially that I see in the current CU setting. Speed is a HUGE factor in this game now, if you do not have ForceSpeed 1 or 2 you are missing out on 4 second heals and hitting int he appropriate modified speed of the saber, and in this case less cooldown timers for the powers attacks. Another issue with this template is you ahve to worry about the lack of Defence (named Glass Cannon for a reason I guess ) , you will not go far in a head to head battle with any Jedi using your saber without either proper defence and or quick heals, 6 second standard heals just dont cut it in pvp. My thoughts on this is you should have either MPowers.. or have MLS, choose which you want to be, back end support role or up in the front lines. If you want to be in the front lines you want MLS, as well as Defence and quick heals. The most sutible template I have found for this would be a MLS/Mdefender template, with either Heal 3.x.x.x/Enhance x.x..x.2 or the opisite Heal 2.x.x.x/Enhance 3.x.x.x. This will give yout he speed necesary and the hels if needed to get back to full health after using AI. But because of the 1k force it takes to sustain AI every 28 seconds (cuts out at 30) you will be dead in under 3 min if not done right. My suggestion is this Dabbler template, MLS/Heal 4.1.x.x./Enhance 3.4.x.2/Defender 4.x.4.x... it provides the necessary amount of defence while sustaining 1500 heals and quick response time to handle normally any situation. The previous template I had was MLS/Heal 4.1.x.x./Enhance 4.4.x.4/Defence x.x.4.x., which was nice but I think that the first one would be more viable for a dabbler template. As for a support role, MPowers and MEnhance is the way to go, I would say Healer but it is extreamly borked atm and will not work the correct way for a long time to come I think and a wast of skill points in my honest opinion. MPowers is great for ranged attacks when you ahve the contemporary "Tank" getting all the aggro. The Best and most viable template I have seen and played for a support role is MPowers, MEnhancer/Heal 4.x.4.x., which gives you the avaliability to do ranged attacks, have decent deffence (Force Armor 2) and quick response/healing times (ForceSpeed 2) as well as ForceRun 3 and Force Cloak to get out of any potentially dangerous situations. The Main reason I have not choosen with the template above is because I beleive that a Jedi is not a Jedi without a Light Saber, this is my opinion though, I would like everyone to base it off of how they like playing their character and if they have fun playing that template or not. the other thing that concerns me is that the damage is not as high as a MLS , though you choose this route going with the support role, you main concern is supportig the team and making sure they are all buffs and healed and you supply the little extra killing power. Ok, hope that is enough explenation lol, if you have any questions please ask, my hand hurts at this time so I will reserve room for growth on this topic if anyone has any concerns on my thoughts.

I'd almost consider a glass cannon template of Msaber and Mpowers <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I figured instead of spending countless hours developing the threads I could atleast post the ones that have been of help to me and hope that someone asks a question and I can answer accordingly (such as your post, thx btw great question).
