SWTOR Class Guide - Jedi Knight Vs Sith Warrior

Jedi Knight
The Jedi knights are also known as the peacekeepers of the galaxy. They fight and protect the republic from threats that may arise to take them down.
Sith Warrior
The Sith warrior is similar to the Jedi knight but instead of fighting for the republic they fight for the Sith Empire whose sole purpose is to defeat the Republic and then start a galactic domination phase.
Sith Warrior vs. Jedi Knight
In the game the top two predicted classes that will be used are the Jedi and the Sith warriors. The main thing that attracts people to these classes are the lightsabers but apart from that there are plenty features of each class that makes them a good choice to pick from.


Jedi Speed
The Jedi use leather robes as their armour which makes them faster than the Sith are. This means that they are able to evade attacks faster than plenty of other classes and with the ability to use force speed they can bring in attacks to their opposition even faster.

Sith Defence
Unlike the Jedi the Sith will have heavy armour which does mean that they are slower but it does mean that their defence is increased. Benefits of this mean that you can be under attack from multiple enemies and sustain a lot of damage which gives you time to attack your assailants.

Force Powers
Both the Jedi and Sith have access to the force powers however the Jedi have more control of it than the Sith do. Even with this both side have the advantage over their enemies by being able to use these abilities to push, throw, choke, and shock their enemies which can be very effective in situations.
The Jedi force powers are stronger than the Sith and probably is their biggest attribute in the game.

Sith Warrior Melee
Like the Jedi attributes are the force powers the main attribute for the Sith warrior is their melee.
Equipped with two lightsabers instead of one the warriors can kill enemies twice as fast and can take on twice as many enemies when they are in close combat range. When attacking at close range the Sith warrior takes the trophy of being the most deadly.
Which Side Do You Choose?

Do You Need A SWTOR Jedi Knight Guide?

If you're looking to get as far as you can, as fast as you can, while playing The Old Republic then I highly recommend you pick up the SWTOR Jedi Knight Guide to help get you there as quickly as possible if this is the class you plan on choosing.
The Jedi Knights have some amazing abilities in this game and they are obviously going to be the most appealing class to the majority of people who play this game. So obviously you want to get a guide because there's going to be some serious competition and the best way to be able to keep up is to know everything ahead of time so that you don't make any mistakes.
The Jedi Knight abilities are as follows(Found in the SWTOR Jedi Knight Guide):
•they have strike ability which allows for a quick melee attack

•they have the slash ability which deals a good deal of moderate damage

•they have an ability called force vitality which will let the user give a friendly target extra endurance

•you'll also learn about the introspection ability, which allows a you to restore health, inside of the SWTOR Jedi Knight Guide

•there is a quick travel ability which gives you the option to teleport to a bind point

•your weapons proficiency is a light saber and your armor proficiency is heavy armor
Here's a quick look at the things they will teach you inside of the SWTOR Jedi Knight Guide. This is coming directly from the table of contents inside the guide:
•Missions 1 through 10

•Rotations

•for the Jedi Guardian class you'll learn Jedi Guardian leveling 11 - 50

•for the Jedi Sentinel class you'll learn Jedi Sentinel leveling 11 - 50
The two potential sub classes of Jedi Knight that you can use are either Jedi Guardian or Jedi Sentinel in case you weren't already able to figure that out.
The Jedi Sentinels are pretty cool because they actually have the ability to wield dual light sabers, and they also can use the force to pick out weaknesses in your opponent which is also very useful.
The Jedi Guardian class has a skill called vigilance which is great because it helps really improve upon your single blade offense and defense. Plus, this gives you the ability to take a lot more damage without dying and you can also easily protect your allies.



The Jedi Knight is a fun and rewarding class to play and with a little patience and some practice you will be a master in no time, you can get some more great tips in my free report here: SWTOR Strategy
