Lots of hints (Spoiler)

[CodyCarson]

Unlockable: Secret Compartment on Ebon Hawk
Ask the "Original owner" of the Ebon Hawk (Nar Shaadda) for proof of ownership of the Ebon Hawk and he will rattle off Ebon Hawk facts including the location of 2 secret compartments. They can’t be found unless you do this. Sadly the smugglers compartment was removed. But one secret compartment remains in the starboard side. Be "nice" to the chap.


Hint: Nar Shadah Lock Code
On Nar Shadah there is a locking mechanism that you'll need to get past in order to save one of your characters.

You must make the top code match the bottom code to proceed. Simply pick Rotate middle set counter-clockwise, Rotate left set counter-clockwise, Rotate right set clockwise.


Hint: Persuade Handmaiden to Become Jedi
You need to have a high influence with Handmaiden & have completed training with her. This is done after finishing on Nar Shadda as the third or fourth planet. Find out that her mother was a Jedi from Kreia. After a long talk with the Handmaiden you have the option to train her in the force. If you agree to train her, you will get a nice cut-screen.


Hint: Unlimited Experience
In the Sith tomb inside the Shyrack cave on Korriban there is room that contains the body of a dead Jedi. Every time you search the body a pair of Hssiss appears in the room. Keep searching and killing to level up as much as you want. The death field power speeds things up and keeps you healthy in the process.


Hint: Free The Nadd's Tomb
In Freedon Nadd's tomb there are two rooms containing boxes which may only be opened by a computer terminal. The first box gives you the choices of A) feb, B) dce, C) eba, D) fac, E) fdc, F) acd. The terminal asks you to choose which of these has an error and the correct choice is "C".

The second box the computer terminal gives you an equation to solve (6_2)_8_9_1=13. The answer to this question is (6*2)-8+9*1=13. If you remember your order of operations from grade school, this should be easy!


Hint: Heal And Attack In The Same Round
In order to do this, the character must be using one of the force cure powers, first, in combat, use the force heal power. Then, quickly switch over to your combat options (Simply press the white button and pause it if your not quick enough) be ready, because when the animation for the force heal starts, you want to choose one of your combat options. This will make it look as if you have two actions cued up, two instances of the combat option you chose.

This is good, as the second choice will change into your force heal. Continue to choose the combat option as your force heal animation comes up and your character will continuously use an attack option and heal themselves in the same round. I used Master Heal and Flurry with this, and it took me through the last several planets of the game. It's ideal for the more difficult encounters.


Hint: Persuade Atton To Become Jedi
You must have a high influence over Atton for this to work (Ed - Well, duh.)

When playing through as a good Jedi, go to Nar Shadda as your third or fourth world (it may or may not work earlier). DO NOT take Atton with you. Go to the refugee area and explore it thoroughly; a couple of Twi'leks will come up to you and tell you something about Atton's past.

Return to the Ebon Hawk, and talk to Atton. Play nice, get his side of the story, and eventually you'll get the option of offering to teach him to use the Force. He may or may not take you up on it the first time, but with enough persistence and influence you'll get him to agree to be taught.

Voila! One more Jedi Sentinel to add to your collection, as well as the dubious pleasure of seeing Atton in Jedi robes.


Hint: Power Wookie
When you take the path of the male dark Jedi, you can gain influence with Hanharr, the wookie, until you are able to ask him why he follows you. When you have enough influence, respond with the following:

"Why do you follow me?"
"Does that mean you serve me?"
"What is this debt that you speak of?"

After this, always choose the first choice. If you have enough influence, the scene will tell you influence: failure one time, then it'll say influence:success after that. Doing this will give Hanharr +2 Strength and -2 Intelligence. Each time you do this, you'll get dark side points and 1000 experience.

Here's where the best part is. If you get his intelligence to 0 and do it again, you'll go up to 253 intelligence! Caution: If you do this too much you will get his strength too high then the game won't save properly. If it saves, the glitch is fine.


Hint: Sith Academy Matriculation Answers
First get the datapad from the corpse that tells you to enter "New Recruit" into the computer, then head down the hallway until you find a computer in one of the rooms off the areas off the main hallway. From there take the level 1 test by accessing the computer and enter 3401726-B853S5O0X001. The answers are as follows:

1. Freedon Nadd
2. Twenty
3. Gizka
4. I always lie
5. passion - strength - power - victory


Hint: Beating Master Vrook
If you go dark side you will have to face Master Vrook in a one on one duel. Master Vrook is one tough customer. After several attempts I found the way to beat him is to have the force focus power active (the little purple sphere). And keep hitting him with Force lightnings. Once you get him low enough, Kreia will interrupt and give you a new Force form. It looks like another purple sphere, but it absorbs the Force from the opponent. When you continue, Vrook will try to heal himself (you probably should too).

Make sure the new ability is active and use Plague on him. With it's 100% chance of hitting it's really the only thing that works. But every time you get him with that he will try to heal the poison. Keep alternating Plage and Force lightning. He will run out of Force and start attacking you again. Just keep nailing him with Force lightning, and when he has only a quarter of his strength left he will colapse, and you've won.


Hint: Disciple A Jedi
After you have finished Korriban talk to Disciple while your inside the Ebon Hawk. He will explain his history about how he once was able to use the Force, but he lost the ability when he was younger. Then tell him that he maybe able to return that power. If Your influence is strong enough he will trust you and you will train him. Disciple will then become a Jedi Counsular.


Hint: Fastest Method To Assemble Lightsaber
As soon as you leave Telos travel to Nar Shaddaa. Once there proceed into the central area and find the zoning door to the Docks. Halfway across the Docks will be a door that leads to the Flophouse. Go to the end of the hallway of this flophouse and the second to last door has a guy named Lootra. Taunt him into attacking. Also note that any characters you can have in your party at this point will lose influence with you if they are with you when you kill him, so go alone. His corpse will have a lightsaber part, there is a quest that as a reward he gives this part to you but the dark side gain is minimal even for lightside characters.

Next if your alignment bar is about 25% good or bad you can return to the Ebon Hawk for a special fight which will get you the last lightsaber part. If you are not 25% good or bad there are tons of things to do in Nar Shaddaa to get the last of the points you need.(If you do not have a colored lightsaber crystal the merchant Geeda will h ave one you can buy so don't scare her away) Now talk to Bao-Dur to have your saber made.


Hint: Revive Dead Party Members
If one or both of your teammates is killed in a battle, get your own character to a safe distance out of battle and have them use an item that does not bring anything up on the screen.

For example: a speeder that is lying out in the open, or a door that won't open. After you use it your partner(s) will stand up and continue attacking. However, when they get back up their health will be extremely low.

Equation for box in Nadd's tomb

Although the equation you gave for the box would work mathematically my game didn't let me use it. I had to divide by 1 instead of multiply in order to get it to open. I guess it wanted me to use all of the operations.

For turning Atton to a jedi, I went to Nar Shadda second and I did bring Atton with me to the refugee camp and right after the two twliks told me the poo i got Atton to become a jedi so what was your reason for saying not to bring him?

I was nice to the guy and I still couldn't get the compartment. Does it really exist?

[Obi-Wan-Evan]

[QUOTE=Darth Clayaken]I was nice to the guy and I still couldn't get the compartment. Does it really exist?[/QUOTE]


Yes it does. Its in Kreias room on the right hand side.

[Darth Moudi]

Where

I looked everywhere and clicked everywhere in that room. What exactly do you have to say to him.

[Rice~Boi]

and what do you get?

[Darth Clayaken]

[QUOTE=Obi-Wan-Evan]Yes it does. Its in Kreias room on the right hand side.[/QUOTE]

I think I know why I'm not seeing it. I went searching around the Obsidian board and I think it was inadvertantly removed from the PC version. Bug or intentional, who knows. In any event, the posters on that board report that the loot isn't random but it's not anything that doesn't appear in any other random container. A couple stims and a med pac, I believe.

[jeremiah]

Kreia's room?? Wrong. It is in Visa's room. Found it and I have the PC version. Nothing spectacular in there (or maybe it was just the random loot generator sticking it to me again).

[Darth Lightside]

which bunk is it under? Do you have to have Nar Shadaa in a specific order in your journey to find it?
