SWTOR Classes Guide - Sith Warrior - Star Wars: The Old Republic

Allegiance: The Sith Empire

Summary: No one inspires more fear than a Sith Warrior. Born for battle, few opponents can withstand the rage-fueled blows from a Warrior's lightsaber or penetrate a Warrior's armor. If dual-wielded lightsabers can't finish the job, there is always Force Choke to bring an opponent to his knee.




Races: The following species can be a Sith Warrior:
Human
Sith
Cyborg
Zabrak

Starting Area: Sith Academy (Korriban) / Valley of the Dark Lords

Equivalent RPG Class(es): Warrior, Barbarian

Abilities: The Sith Warrior is a fearsome melee combatant skilled with both single and dual lightsabers. The Sith Warrior uses Dark Force powers in addition to his close range saber attacks, though not as many as the Sith Inquisitor.

Warriors who become Sith Juggernauts continue to specialize in single saber combat, and may learn defensive lightsaber forms to help shield themselves and allies from incoming attacks.

Warriors who become Sith Marauders become versed in combat with two lightsabers, and learn powerful attacks that utilize both weapons.
