Message: <blockquote data-quote="ValenarJaeldira" data-source="post: 3606865" data-attributes="member: 25648">A couple of things:  Linguist is a starting feat for Nobles, but a starting feat they only get if you have 13+Int.  So, if you drop your Int to 12, you do drop Linguist, but it can't be replaced with anything else.Whirlwind attack is now a true area attack, which means you make your attack roll.  Anyone who is hit takes full damage, and anyone who fails still takes half damage (unless they have evasion).  Melee Defense is a prereq to whirlwind attack.Noble Class Skills: Dception, Gather Information, Initiative, Knowledge (Bureacracy, galactic Lore, Life sciences, Physical sciences, Social Sciences, Tactics, and Technology), Perception, Persuasion, Pilot, Ride, Treat Injury, Use Computer.  You get 6+Int+1 for being humanConsequences: No Linguist feat and it isn't replaceable, so your feat exchange is no good.  You would however have more hitpoints, better fortitude and reflex defense, and a higher damage threshhold, not to mention slightly better Use the Force checks.  You also no longer meet the Int prereq for Melee Defense and Whirlwind AttackSuggestions:  The reason I gave you melee defense is, quite frankly, I was having a hard time finding feats on the Noble bonus feat list (Armor Prof (light), Cybernetic Surgery, Exotic Weapon Prof, Linguist, Melee Defense, Skill Focus, Skill training, Surgical Expertise, Weapon Finesse, Weapon Proficiency (advanced melee weapons), and weapon proficiency (rifles)).  3 of your feats must come from that list.  Skill Focus (Use the Force) is one obvious one.  Melee defense, as a prerequisite to Whirlwind Attack seemed like a good choice, but if you won't use it, maybe not.  Skill Training can give you an extra trained skill, but the Noble list isn't super-great for this character, especially since you can Use The Force instead of Perception.  My reccomendation, if you really want to do unarmed attacks, is to drop whirlwind attack and advanced melee for weapon finesse and Martial Arts I.That said, I have another option: drop melee defense and whirlwind attack.  Replace them with Weapon Finesse and Martial Arts 1.  Make sure you always have combat gloves that you are attuned to so you can be insured at least 2d6+6 damage.  You can also pick up any (non-lightsaber, non-exotic) melee weapons and take 2 full-round actions to empower and attune yourself to them, and kick butt with them instead, should you so choose.</blockquote>
