[KOTOR] Revan's Default Class?

Sneak attack can be combo with Stealth, Stasis and Horror, Force Jump.

Horror Force Tree stuns the enemies thru the Will Saves. Stasis will stun/freeze thru fortitude save. Due to your enemy is unable to attack, Sneak attack will be applied.

Due to Force jump, your enemy will be surprised thus Sneak attack will be applied. Also Stealth+Sneak Attack will be used if you flank your enemies.

I always thought of Revan as a Soldier/Consular, cause he was a great fighter and strong in the Force.

Quick note: Your weapon proficiencies are linked to the feats you take and not your class, unlike in ToR. Even a Consular can get mileage out of a double-bladed lightsaber if specked correctly. It's just more difficult since Consulars get the least feats while leveling vs a Guardian who gets the most. Me, I use mods. I'm a bit scummy.

Outside of Kotor 1 Class set up, there are many Jedi Specializations ranging from Jedi Battlemasters to Jedi Shadows to Jedi Watchman to Jedi Sages.

In Kotor 1 and Events leading up to Kotor 1, Revan would fit the Jedi Shadow. Jedi Shadow serves 2 function within the Jedi Order: 1) they are information gatherers on threats to the Jedi 2) they hunt Dark Siders of all stripes. Lore Wise: Jedi Shadow is a Jedi Sentinel Specialization.

Revan via Kotor comic operated alone mostly and gather information about the Mandalorian during the Mandalorian wars before he made his infamous stand. Also Revan did strive to uncover why Mandalorian were fighting the Republic and fought out it was the Sith. And we know what happen there. Revan via Star wars Kotor Campaign Guide was the founder of the Sith Assassins during the Kotor era. Sion and Nihilus were the Leaders after Revan for the Sith Assassins. Sith Assassins did hunt force users and important figures.

After he was captured by the Jedi, he was eventually re-trained as a Jedi under Jedi Council and was assigned to fight the source of the New Sith Fleet under Darth Malak. More often than not, Jedi Shadows are answerable to a Jedi Council like Dantioone Jedi Council or the First Council of Knowledge. Jedi Shadows will ally with other useful people regardless of their personal morality. So I do see Revan as a functional Jedi Shadow within his personal arch.


Right now, I am going to a playthru of a Yavin 4 mod to get further ideas for my mod idea.

If I was going to make a Jedi Shadow into Revan's canon Jedi Class while striving to respecting player choice.

Unique Jedi Feats Will be avaible.

So Lightsaber Specialization, Full Force Jump tree, Full Force Immunity Tree and Full Force Focus Tree will be avaible for Jedi Shadow class.

Auto Feats:
Uncanny Dodge 1 and 2
Full Sneak Attack 1 to 10

All Weapons specializations will be avaible too.

Scout/Consular makes the most sense, in my opinion.

Scout because it really doesn't make sense to me for the Jedi Council to program him as anything else.

Why in the world would they make him a criminal? That's a terrible idea for all sorts of reasons, aside from the fact that it's a pretty horrible thing to do. A character like that would need lots of connections to very specific and currently active underground operatives to function believably, he can't just appear out of nowhere without knowing anyone. And why exactly would the Republic army need him around, again?

And making him a soldier would not just foster and promote inadvisable aggressive tendencies in him - which, remember is what started the whole mess in the first place, it would also actually endanger him by potentially putting him on the front-lines without either his jedi training or actual infantry experience to lean on.

Meanwhile, Scout is perfect. Revan is implied to be from one of the Outer Rim planets, knows a ridiculous number of languages and experienced plenty of travel in his previous life. Keep his origin and convince him he grew up on the outskirts of the galaxy working as a middle-man and translator, and an explorer with adequate martial training to defend himself. Someone the Republic really might hire to help their forces navigate the war in the Outer Rim.

That sort of profession would also be more likely to skew him towards honest communication, empathy and compassion, things the Jedi Council would no doubt prefer to focus his mind on to keep him from backsliding. And you get all the tech skills, supporting Revan's canonical technological know-how.

And Consular because while Revan is no doubt portrayed as an excellent swordsman, plenty of Consulars are also excellent fighters and there's far more emphasis put on his god-like force powers, charisma and cunning. I see him as a superpowered Qui-Gon Jinn more than as an Anakin Skywalker clone.

In my mind, Revan was the charismatic and intuitive figurehead and force powerhouse of the pushback against the Mandalorians, Malak the passionate and staunch defender who ploughed through enemies and held any ground he stood, and Meetra Surik/The Exile the less powerful but perhaps more grounded and disciplined duelist and strategist who coordinated troops with surgical precision and iron will.

And yeah, I usually play Revan as female too, but these days I prefer my playthroughs to be consistent with the storylines in SWTOR.

I don't think so. We have no reason to think that the Jedi Council had any intention of "using" the reprogrammed Revan against the Sith until s/he showed up with Bastila sporting a force bond and unique insight into the Star Maps. I've always been under the impression that they just slotted them into Bastila's command structure to keep them close just in case. 

They definitely didn't reprogram Revan with the intention of making them a Jedi again later. And even then, the image of a scoundrel you posit is specifically the opposite of the kind of diplomacy Jedi go in for, using subterfuge and confusion instead of honesty and clear communication.

And Jedi and soldiers are supposed to be antitheses of each other. Taking the wounded Darth Revan and giving him an identity centered around fighting and battle is precisely reinforcing the tendencies the Council disapproved of in him/her and the ones that started the whole Jedi Civil War in the first place, so far as they know. 

I can see what you're trying to do, but this logic doesn't make sense from the Jedi Council's perspective.
