Sage Consular To Do In Combat Revival

"Sages and Sith Sorcerers get in combat revival. That is all Consular Sages and Sith Inquisitor Sorcerers, not just the ones the specialize in healing/support." - Georg Zoeller Principal Lead Combat Designer for BioWare's Star Wars: The Old Republic MMORPG.

This interesting revelation was recently posted the the SWTOR Community Forum General Discussion. It will definitely add value to the Jedi Consular Sage and Sith Inquisitor Sorcerer Classes.

Every Class you can play in SWTOR has the ability to revive themselves or a comrade that has fallen in battle once outside of combat. While engaged in combat however, this ability is not active. In most MMO's the ability to revive a fallen player belongs to the healer or healers in the group. This can be problematic at times when the healer has their hands full trying to keep the tank alive and doesn't notice or have time to revive a downed dps player. The loss of one player especially your main dps can often lead to a failed quest.

The designers of SWTOR have found a nice solution to this problem. While there are three classes in each faction that have a healer tree, two of those classes will not be able to revive as well, and that's a good thing in my opinion. Now the healer can concentrate on healing, maybe a little crowd control or some other secondary task, but won't have to stop in the middle of a battle to bring the main dps dealer back into the game.

While there will often be a secondary healer in most groups, the fact that any Sage or Sorcerer in a group can revive in combat will add greatly to survivability in even the toughest scenarios.

If you are going to help defend the The Old Republic and want to ensure you are able to group up when needed, build yourself a Jedi Sage Consular. You'll be in one of the most popular classes in the galaxy.
