The purpose of this guide is to help you to effectively and fully play your class and spec using only the two quickslot bars that Free to Play option players are given. Of course, it's always possible to spend a few dollars to unlock a few more quickslots, but if you really would like to play for free, this guide will help you to do so.
This works because not every ability you are going to get as you level up is useful or necessary for your particular class or your particular spec. This guide will tell you which abilities to keep on your bar and which ones to remove. In the vast majority of cases, there is no harm or sacrifice whatsoever in giving up the abilities that this guide will tell you to. Those few instances where it is a bit of a sacrifice will be noted. If you would like to hear more in depth reasoning behind why certain abilities are being kept or removed, the video version of this guide does provide that. The video guide also goes into greater depth as a whole and should be viewed if possible.
Step 1: Setting Things up at Level 1
Abilities which will be on your quickbars when you finish character creation:
- Saber Strike
- Double Strike
- Project
- Meditation
- Force Valor ---------- Remove this from your bar
- Quick Travel ---------- Remove this from your bar
The removed abilities are not necessary to have on the bar and are used infrequently. They can be accessed when necessary from the full ability list by pressing P.
Step 2: Culling Unnecessary Abilities
As you level, simply train every ability that is offered to you, as they will all be useful at lower levels and it is good to get a feel for them. However, as you reach higher levels some of these will become unnecessary. When you find yourself out of room on your quickslot bars, simply remove any of the following abilities. Most are completely unnecessary. Any which would be useful but must be given up for the sake of space will be noted.
- Guard
- Mind Control
- Mass Mind Control
- Force Potency --------- Useful but unnecessary for leveling
- Heroic Moment -------- Swap onto bar temporarily if having difficulty with a certain fight.
- Whirling Blow
Step 3: Passive Abilities Which Never Need to Be on the Bar
Certain abilities that you have are passive. They are either on or off, and once activated will remain on and can be removed from your bars to save space. If necessary, they can be accessed from the master ability list by pressing P. When you train these, activate them and then remove them from your bar.
- Force Technique
- Sprint
Certain abilities never need to be trained because they are completely unnecessary for your spec at any time. The following abilities do not need to be trained. If they are trained, do not use them and remove them from your bars.
- Combat Technique
- Tumult
