Star Wars: The Old Republic Sith Warrior Specialisations


BioWare has revealed two specialisations of the Sith Warrior class in Star Wars: The Old Republic, the Marauder and the Juggernaut.

 


 

Much like other games, players can specialise each class in different ways. The Sith Warrior has a couple of these specialisations: Reading the description of the Juggernauts, it's clear this will be a tanking class:

 

Star Wars: The Old Republic“Sith who train in the stalwart arts of the Juggernaut boast unrivaled stamina in battle. Through diligence and clarity, the Juggernaut shapes the Force to his will to become nearly invulnerable. Damage that would destroy others is shrugged off, and futility fills the Juggernaut's foes with doubt and despair. Protecting their allies and punishing their adversaries, they charge into the thick of any fray, and take the brunt of the assault and are even able to drain the energy of their enemies to further strengthen their resolve.”

 

The Marauder is a pure damage-dealer, furiously wielding two lightsabers:

 

Star Wars: The Old Republic“Wielding two sabers and unmatched aggression, Sith trained as Marauders slice through enemy ranks, dealing death with merciless efficiency. Able to intuit precisely how to attack in order to maximize every strike, their adversaries become victims in the blink of an eye. Whether annihilating a squad of Republic troops or cutting down a single Jedi, the Marauder sees and exploits every weakness to exact the greatest toll. Never hesitating, never faltering, there is no swifter bringer of pain and damage in the galaxy.”

 

The Sith Warrior's companion, Vette, was also revealed today. Find out more about her here.
