Hello SWRPG community! It’s been a bit! We’ve been hard at work on the Consular (and the diplomat, and the Colonist signatures, and the Armorer – We’ve been busy!) and we’re happy to release the Consular to the community! This also marks the first time we’ve both overhauled a signature ability, and only the second time we’ve built one from scratch (check out the Syndicate Career if you haven’t yet!). This was an exciting time of development and an exploration of how far we can push talents using the Force as justification. You’ll see what I mean when you check them out.
As always, challenges and favorites. Our biggest challenge was likely the Teacher, trying to reinvent what being a knowledgeable leader looked like, and cutting some of the less awesome talents like Wise Warrior. My favorite is the Arbiter, making the disarming of enemies a little subgame that pays of the character that can end combats all on its own. The biggest win for our team was finally fulfilling the promise of Much To Learn. There was a “Supreme” upgrade that allows the character to pass on a Supreme talent, but not a single Consular has a supreme talent RAW. We’re proud to say that literally every single Consular has a full Improved and Supreme of their signature talent, which can then be passed around to allies with that signature.
Anywho, that’s the update, please check out the release notes below! And join the server! We’re working on Guardian right now! It’s great fun!
