...I'm two days in Taris and already I want to kill Thana Vesh... wonderful

 

Do it.

[Milan92]

I'm on Empire Taris again. Yuck. I actually don't mind Rep Taris but Empire Taris is god awful.

 

I feel the same.

 

I also just completed Nar Shadaa with my Consular. Tharan has been alot of fun so far, especially since he's accompanied by Holiday

 

He reminds me alot of Dr Krieger from Archer, except alot less insane.

Imagine having to run many of those Imp Taris conversations over and over and over again for fanfic research purposes.

The interaction with those two is great if you mostly go for humorous options.

Who would be crazy enough to do that?

[Sjpelke]

I changed my vanguards skill tree to tactics and love it.

 

12x exp will still be there for over a month and decided to level a char on each class and faction before the expansion comes out.

Every time.

Thana Vesh was a great side character. She's annoying of course, but she's supposed to be. 

[TheChris92]

I suppose BioWare should be congratulated for that and tactfully reminded that deliberately annoying is still annoying.

[aoibhealfae]

This Nubian goddess aren't so big about people who are too stupid to live.

 

I wouldn't mind to trade her with Jaesa though...

[Liamv2]

Hell her issue isn't even that she's annoying. She's just plain incompetent. Every time you see her she's fucked up in some way. It's even more pathetic when you're playing a non force user.

Not every character should fawn over or cooperate with the protagonist. She's also there to serve as a foil for your character. Her stumbles serve to highlight the competence of the player character.

She doesn't need to like me. I'm just wondering how such a giant failure actually passed the trials. The Sith are slipping.

This.

Ew. That's worse than Quinnmance. At least Jaesa is actually good at her job. Also I find her complete obsession with me endearing.

Force ability doesn't always translate into cunning or intelligence, and Thana has a reckless streak. She'd probably be more successful if she was the heavy under another Sith's direct command.

[Br3admax]

So like I said, how did she pass the trials, since you know, you need to be cunning, intelligent, and not under direct Sith command? Being powerful won't make you Sith.

Yeah. Hell her codex entry says she was a freaking prodigy and spread through the trials with zero issues.

Some of the most incompetent military leaders in our real world history were educated at prestigious military academies and/or had spent decades as a warrior or officer before the battles that exposed their incompetence. Some of those people were quite highly regarded before the blunders that either killed them or destroyed their reputation. The latter is an example of the Peter Principle.

 

Even though there is copious amounts of space magic involved with the Jedi or Sith, there is an element of realism involved in that both their academies occasionally churn out someone who later commit blunders. Thana excelled at the Sith Academy according to the lore, but even with its dog-eat-dog atmosphere it still doesn't exactly mirror the challenges faced by someone in independent command. The acolytes are never far from supervision. I'd guess she made it as far as she did because she is powerful in the force and hadn't yet been tested in a situation where she had to operate entirely independently without a master's direct supervision.

She's incredibly incompetent despite her being Sith, which already boggles the mind. Unlike a character like Guybrush Threepwood, there's nothing to balance out her hopeless naivete and alarming incompetence, put together with her uptight attitude which feels less like anything that compliments her skill over the insufferable whining. Vaverone Zare was also quite full of herself, but her confidence and self-esteem only served to ovate her strength and skill; It was warranted.

 

Thana is annoying through and though -- A pet, whose seemingly sole existence is to serve as nothing more but something the player needs to protect, from herself, like a trophy or an object. She carries the worst kind of traits in any character, male or female.

Thana is hardly unique in being a Sith who displays incompetence. 

 

She's undone by the same fatal flaw that ultimately destroys nearly all Sith...towering arrogance and a tendency to underestimate enemies.

[TheChris92]

She's also undone by the same flaw that destroys nearly all Sith: towering arrogance and underestimating enemies.

I mentioned one example above-- Sith, come in all shapes and forms, Thana is unique in the sense that her sole character is designed around being irritating which is part of the grating part about her. I mentioned, a while back, that the odd affection that some people seem to have for the character is most likely stemmed from the fact that she's a female, a clueless damsel who needs protecting from her own incompetence. Had she been male, I'd imagine every single person who'd encounter Thana would have 'offed her right then and there. 

 

Baras was arrogant, Jadus was also somewhat arrogant, Thanaton etc. They all had something to balance out their shortcomings even if their arrogance was partially the reason for their ultimate demise.

All of that plus that totally believable accent...
