I used the same trick on my companions, but many of them already came with non-armor restricted abilities so I just had to be careful with them. In order to prevent the AI from using them while I wasn't controlling my own character, I leveled the 'restricted by armor' abilities exclusively and then just wore armor so the AI couldn't use powers when I wasn't looking. He was the real hero, my character was just along for the ride.Īfter becoming a Jedi, I had to spend points on Force powers to level up. His health regen made him an amazing tank given that I couldn't use Force Heal, so he could regenerate health between fights without burning through medpacks, and at the same time he had pretty great damage output from dual swords. I specialized him to tank for me and gave him dual-weapon fighting and two vibroswords. After all, most players switch to lightsabers at some point on Dantooine and the blaster playthroughs I have seen still use Force powers to supplement them.Ĭanderous carried the entire run. I went with a dual-blaster build and the game does not expect you to be using blasters into the endgame because the options are much more limited and even the best ones are pretty underpowered compared to what you can do with lightsabers.
The difficulty I used was Normal, but KOTOR 1 was hard. Of course this isn't in-character for most of them but this was definitely not meant to be a roleplaying/lore-friendly playthrough, just something I did for fun. Their Jedi companions basically become disciples of the main character and renounce their Jedi ways even though they can use the Force, they refuse to do so. As a result, they think the only way the galaxy can be safe is if no one, Jedi or Sith, used the Force and that all Force users are a threat. What explanation I could come up with to justify the run from a roleplaying perspective is that my characters take the idea that power inevitably corrupts to the extreme because all the Sith Lords in recent memory were fallen Jedi. Obviously, it makes no sense for the Jedi companions not to use Force powers, but it felt like it makes the run way too easy if only the player didn't use the Force as you have companions for the majority of the games who can just do the Force powers for you.
melee-only in games that expect you to use guns). So, I normally don't like to play games on the highest difficulty but I like to make subsequent playthroughs interesting by using specific challenge run rulesets (e.g.
