Has anyone realized that using the Sith philosophy, their Academy could only have one Trainer and one student at a time? lol
The Jedi Academy DOES allow Dark Jedi anyway. |

I just want the look of the SA map to be quite different from the JA map... There should not be any places where ppl go: "Hey, just like the JA!"
I want a darker and more cruel theme... BTW - There will be a main room with teleports to get u where u need to go fast, and to decrease lag!!! _______________ Not back yet...

mmm, at least try to do SOME things different. those ranks are far too similar to the JA's ones.
and by the way, its not important how many darths/siths/whatever there are or how you get the rank... the important thing is what they are good for. why have 20 ranks if they all do the same beside boasting egos? on the other hand, darksiders are known to be quite egoistic and unkind so go on
for tha map: make it dark. dark, creepy and cruel. dont do an outside area, 4 dueling rooms and spectator areas with unbreakable glass, i cant see any more of those maps. do something on your own. i would suggest spikes. nooo, no pit room with spikes. i mean, a tower or something, with spikes. big ones. kinda like isengard or baradur from lord of the rings. THEY look very sith-ish. and as buzz said, many traps _______________ Aeth S'kray *June 2002 +September 2003 |

Have you seen any star wars fan films ? I highly recommend duality, can be found at www.theforce.net, it has a scne in a sort of sith duel arena, very kool. Praps instead of just making a temple sort of building like we have now, how bout something thats implanted into the side of a cliff, with a duel spot at top and landing pads and stuff. Just an idea.
Sorry again for hijacking the thread its just the people saying that light was better for duels was a great injustice  _______________ Apprenctice of Jedi Master Ascari (deceased) Descended from a line of great Jedi Will argue any point of view from any side

thx Buzz, i think i have found a theme for the map now... one thing that may not seem important to u, but i think more or less is... is that they have real torches, instead of those light-energy thingies in the Jedi Academy... just adds a lot of the theme i want... _______________ Not back yet...

I'm not personally interested in a Sith Academy. I prefer defense over offense in Force powers. But as for map ideas. It definitely needs to be deadlier than the Jedi Academy. Because as Sith, any weakness would not be tolerate and failure should result in immediate death. So there definitely would be a bottomless or spikes in a pit room instead of a shallow pond. Far more menacing and fear inspiring architecture as well. Several books and comics I think mention Sith Hieroglyphs in their temples. On a side note. The Jedi Academy in the Massasai Temples is a SITH temple. Exar Kun had them built on Yavin so you might want similar design. _______________ When you are going through Hell, keep going. -Sir Winston Churchill.

K, I'll just post the ranks here, BUT it should be said that I don't know how u increase rank!
U start with no 1, and work your way up! 1: Initiate (Light- and Darkside Force usable) 2: Dark Jedi (Light- and Darkside Force usable) 3: Sith Apprentice (Light- and Darkside Force usable) 4: Sith (Only Darkside usable) 5: Sith Lord (Only Darkside usable) 6: Darth (Only Darkside usable) 7: Emperor (Only Darkside usable) Now, about the ranks: Initiate - U start as Initiate, and it is unlimited how many there can be. Dark Jedi - Next rank, still unlimited on how many can be it. Sith Apprentice - Only as many as the Sith's are willing to take on as Apprentice'es. Sith - So far limited to 12 positions. Sith Lord - Only one, (sort of like Lead Knight). Voted in by the Sith's and Darth's. Darth - Only 5 so far, for special devotation. Coding, Mapping, Modelling, Site Designer, and Map Guard (sort of like a Sheriff) Emperor - That's Andrew-lecho... He started the Academy... If he quits, a Darth will be voted in by EVERYBODY _______________ Not back yet... I'll come one day, I hope... The madman formerly (and still) known as Tito!

Yes this thread was hijacked because whenever someone brings up sith and a darkside academy, someone says how they are a lighty and prefer it. Then a darkside user goes "nuhu darkside is better" It goes back and forth and the thread loses what it was meant for. And Jake in overall Aeth isn't really agreeing with you. His personal preference is to use the darkside and he thinks its better. He's not saying its a proven fact that darkside is better than lightside in duels. Use what you think is best. Not because someone else tells you this is the way it is and it will never be different. _______________ When you are going through Hell, keep going. -Sir Winston Churchill.

I think that the subject was a bit misunderstood... It was about the Sith Academy... If u want to know more about it then e-mail Codebreakerblack@aol.com!!! Ask for the document about the Sith Academy, it says some stuff about the rules, ranks, and what it's about... U can get a special Darth position if u do something special... I got it becuz I'm makin their map... We already have one working on the website... If u do coding or modelling, then tell him... Again, mail Codebreakerblack@aol.com for more info...

Fianlly someone who agrees with me. Yeah lvl 3 lightning does have its advantages, but if the d00d is running away and you can't keep up, whilst he's healing, you can zap him from longer range. _______________ Apprenctice of Jedi Master Ascari (deceased) Descended from a line of great Jedi Will argue any point of view from any side

geez, just play what you want. as long as u r happy with it why complain about anything
impo dark side is stronger but it massively depends on the play behind it. like new ones better use light (easier heal, abosrb), advanced take dark (more agressive) and then comes your personal choice. i say a highly skilled darksider takes out a highly skilled light sider... but thats just my opinion. oh and lightning lvl 2 is not too good i say. why? you need to aim. you can fire lvl three blind and its much easier to keep track of rolling an jumping guys. besides it does more damage i think. wanna know my forces? here they are
jump 3 pull 3 push 3 seeing 2 lightning 3 drain 3 grip 3 saber atack 3 saber defence 3 i'm quite used to it now _______________ Aeth S'kray *June 2002 +September 2003 |

Stoopid tying posted it twice . I've said all along its not my opinion (well technically it is because I support it.....) I'm not whining and I'm forcing my opinions on anybody, sorry if it came across like that. All I'm trying to do is teach you. I'm assuming that most of you have never played full force duel at a competitive level. I could do a stoopid thing and say "I chalenge anyone in the academy to a full force duel, me dark they light" but that would solve nothing. I have nothing to prove, if you chose not to except this information I have presented before you then so be it. You may think I'm wrong, kudos to you for standing up for what you beleive in, I can't argue with that. I'm just saying that I do have quite a fair bit of knowledge on the subject (no I'm not boasting) because I've been playing for a long time and have carried out lots of reasearch (ever hear of break_df ? he's arguably one of the greatest full force duelers in the world, he's a regualr on the JKII.net forums) _______________ Apprenctice of Jedi Master Ascari (deceased) Descended from a line of great Jedi Will argue any point of view from any side

Jake from wat i'm glancing at...you seem to be the only one whining...
Lightning lvl 3 is designed more for the FFA player, therefore the wide but short range... As Buzz said, they are pretty equal. You seem to be trying to force YOUR opinions onto everybody here, so plz dont bother - people will just start to think badly of you... My views tend to reside in this - Dark is for attack, light is for defense - personally, i tend to defend myself rather than attack...see below... Oh and could you PLEASE sort out those duplicates... --- Attack: The dark side powers are mostly offensive powers. Care must be taken on the timing of the force use, as not to waste power, but when it does work it becomes very effective... Defense: Use of absorb at the right times (i'm not gonna say when ) can dictate whether you die or survive. Protect is pretty lame but useful when used rite. With use on the defensive, its best to try and work out what you're defending against primarily before using powers... _______________ ««¤¤¤{{PREÅÐÅT¤R ka¦¦ata'n}}¤¤¤»» Founder of RSPCT (The Royal Society of the Prevention of Cruelty to Toasters) |

They've given up patching it cos people keep whining. Anyway, what can a lightsider do with a full force pool ? answer = nothing much. Except for using throw pull which the darkie can heal using a meagre amount of force. The lighty will be reluctant to heal (or should be) until they have taken the full thirty damage otherwise its a waste. As soon as a lightsider runs out of force and doesn't have enough to abosrb, the fight is pretty much over. I'm talking full force duels, not 2 vs one or anything like that. Dark is not all powerful, its just better for one on one duels.If you have any idea about full force duels you'll know that doing any form of normal swing with your saber is very stupid, except if your opponent is flat on their back in which case heavy, overhead em. I've done all the research, beleive me I know what I'm talking about. I would love you to find any full force dueler in any league ever than was a lightsider who actually did some owning  _______________ Apprenctice of Jedi Master Ascari (deceased) Descended from a line of great Jedi Will argue any point of view from any side

Jake, you cannot use the point of kick pull and throw. Those are neutral powers. Anyone can do them and if you were to fight someone using the lightside that is better at pull kick and throw than you then you're dead. And its not grip vs absorb. Its grip vs absorb and heal. You grip someone and they are going to take maybe 3 or 4 damage before they turn on absorb. It may take some power but it is all returned from the grip. Now they have full force again and are freed from your grip. And if you got a kick in that's what 20 damage if it was a good hit? All gained back in health. Also you can't swing your saber while doing grip lightning or drain. That means your open. however a lightside user can be slicing your head off while healing himself. What would happen if you were in a 2 on 1 duel sometime and you tried to grip? you can't protect yourself. Now you of course wouldn't do it because you're smart enough not to. But that eliminates an ability for you to use. I'd say mind trick would work in a two on one duel very well. If you spend all your time focusing on one guy the other gets behind you and gets a major hit. Lightside isn't better. They're EQUAL. They've had 2 patches to make them more equal. If there was such a major gap in their ability to be properly used there would have been another patch _______________ When you are going through Hell, keep going. -Sir Winston Churchill.

Ok I didn't waqnt to go into this but its obvious you guys are gonna be convinced unless I go into specifics. Mind trick is pointless in a duel, lvl 1 seeing counters any lvl of mintrick, thats 2 points spent on seeing against what is it ? 12 on mind trick!!Yes absorb is very kool, but you have to remember you can only absorb force if someone actually uses any on you Just sit back, wait for it to wear out, pull throw kick em a bit. Protect is a waste, you can't use absorb whilst protecting, grip kick em takes off mad health. Now we come to heal versus drain. Oh dear oh dear, they are not even in the same league, not even in the same sport. I've already said it, heal takes half your force pool for 30 health, thats if you manage to keep even half a force pool long enough. Drain can be used almost constantly (unless they themselves are being drained) All it takes is one burst of drain to knock out your healing, and heal themselves. You won't get another chance cos drain can be used over and over, and since the duel lvls are small the pressure can be put on constantly. Rage doesn't come into the equation cos you'd be a fool to use rage in a duel
Oh yeah one last point, lightning. Lvl 2 lightning is more effective than lvl 3. Whys that ? I hear you ask. Well its becuase of the range. Lvl 2 lightning can go halfway across the massassi arena map (you know the one with the slopey sides). This means that in a small, confined dueling area, you can canstantly zap your opponent with little burts. This is good because 9 times out of 10 they will slap on absorb, but only after they've been hit cos they'll be expecting more, this takes up valuable force power and deducts their ability to heal whilst taking damage. I'm gonna say it ONE MORE TIME!! DARK IS MORE POWERFUL IN FULL FORCE DUELS, THERE IS NO POINT ARGUING. You may not like it, but don't get angry at me, its not my choice, its not my opinion, its not me thinking I know better than anyone else, IT IS THE TRUTH. _______________ Apprenctice of Jedi Master Ascari (deceased) Descended from a line of great Jedi Will argue any point of view from any side

I started out with light, because of heal, then when I got better i turned to the darkside for an easier time killing people. Now that I've joined the academy, I'm turning back to the light side.
Btw, Andrew Lecho, r u going to eventually lead ur sith academy against the JA? That would be cool, we could all meet on the world's biggest server and duke it out, Jedi vs Sith, Light vs Dark....
