What role (tank/heal/dps) you gonna play in TOR?

I played a Paladin tank in WoW, so I'm thinking Sith Warrior Juggernaut to start. Alts/mains-if-that-doesn't-work-out: IA/BH dps.

I'll be likewise going the Smuggler Scoundrel route for my main. Healers were definitely in demand this past weekend, especially for Heroic quests.

My 2nd alt will be a Miraluka Jedi Sentinel. I rolled one up and he was fantastic. The sight (no pun intended) of a hunky young Jedi Knight without sight using dual light sabers in combat was sheer poetry. *swooooon*

I think I've decided on a JC with tk as my tree.

Jedi Consular Sage for healing and a Smuggler Gunsliger for DPS for sure. I like to have one for all 3 roles though so I'm sure I'll roll a trooper for my tank class at some point too. May the force help me choose a main.

I'm still not sure what class to play at start since I had so much fun playing all the classes.

I think I'm leaning towards>>>

Trooper/Commando
Smuggler/Scoundral
Jedi Knight/Guardian
Counselor/Sage

No specific order and no I've not made up my mind yet.

I do know if I pick Jedi Knight I will head down the dark path. :)

Im gonna be a Jedi Sage! It was the most fun time i think i have ever had leveling a healer. I also tried out the Bounty Hunter for a few levels and was having a blast. There is something to be said for shooting rockets out of your arms lol.

with 99.99% certainty, I'll be initially rolling up a Jedi Consular Assassin. I'm leaning more towards the outright DPS but may pick up some tanking skills to help serve as an off-tank if needed.

Which I may need some guidance on from more experienced tanks. I've only ever played healers and glass cannons, so we'll see how things go down with my guy. I still need to come up with a name for him DAMN!

did not like my color crystal it was yellow and black i want purple (anyone know how to get one )

I agree, the yellow and black is horrid! There is a craft that can make parts for your gear and I think they can make different colors, not sure on what colors thou. Also you will get items from quests that will eventually replace the yellow and black crystal.

Definitely starting off with a Trooper/Commando, most likely leaning toward the DPS end of the spec tree with some healing. Smuggler/Gunslinger is next on my list, and after giving the Imperial Agent a whirl, I'm probably going to roll up a Sniper eventually too. Really loved the nuanced story of the IA as compared to the Inquisitor or even the bounty hunter.
