Advanced Classes Update For The Old Republic

Posted By Mike on April 10, 2011

We got a double-shot update from the official site of Star Wars: The Old Republic this week. First up, SWTOR.com provides a PAX East 2011 highlight video detailing the good times had by all at this year's convention.

Next up, we have a new developer blog which details recent updates to TOR advanced classes. Check out the intro below and then make sure to click here for the full blog entry.


"Hello there, I?m Georg Zoeller, and I?m Principal Lead Combat Designer on Star Wars?: The Old Republic?. In my previous developer blog, I introduced you to the Advanced Classes Game System in the game. In today?s blog I?m going to explain how the system has evolved over the last few months based on iteration, gameplay testing and focus groups.

Advanced Classes (often abbreviated ACs) are chosen on your faction?s capital world ? either Coruscant or Dromund Kaas - when your character reaches level 10 or above. Each base class gets a choice of two Advanced Classes; for example if you are playing a Jedi Knight, you will be able to choose to play the Jedi Guardian or Jedi Sentinel Advanced Class.

Choosing an Advanced Class is very important in The Old Republic, as within your Advanced Class, your character will reach their full potential. Your Advanced Class choice dramatically alters the gameplay experience of your base class by providing access to two exclusive skill trees per Advanced Class, with a third being shared between both Advanced Classes."
