How come no one really talks about a party with Juhani and Jolee?

Because they hate parties. :)

No seriously no one talks about having Juhani and Jolee. I think that this would be a great party because with the amount of force points that Jolee has he could be the one standing behind the two tanks (your character and Juhani).

Your assuming everyone makes a tank. Last time I passed the game I played with a Scoundrel/Consular and preffered Bastilla and Juhani to Jolee.

But does it sound like a bad party to you?

It makes for a very dangerous party :D Jolee is a strong force user with many powers, Juhani is an awesome sidekick ... and that leaves your main character which is of course overpowered... 3 Jedi are unstoppable!!!

Of course, much can be said personality-wise. And I definitely don't enjoy how Juhani's face looks everytime I speek to her. And what's up with the Eastern European accent???

Strong party though, very strong. Lots of crystals....

i cant see why someone would ever want to use 3 jedis, when you can have the cool bot M3, he's like a moving key, gets in everywhere. So i have to say i would use him above any1. (favorite party for me is Me, Jolee and M3)

T3 may be a moving key, but Zalbaar is a moving battering ram.

but he can't use forcepowers so that make him a unimportant member of my party.

Why would the any one character's lack or possession of an ability to use the Force play such a significant role in determining which characters are "important"? By your math, the only valued characters are Bastila, Juhani, and Jolee, and the rest can go hang. T3 cannot use the Force ... does that make the 'droid unimportant as well?

As for this "moving key" concept, security skills are easily countered by raw physical power. Zaalbar can bash his way into any case or through any door that T3 or Mission can unlock. Take the characters into a fight, and which is better? By far, I'd rather have the Wookiee backing me up than T3. Barring all else, Zaalbar can be healed through the Force (Heal/Cure), whereas T3 and even the caustic-but-hilarious HK-47 cannot, and Zaalbar can easily have 400 vitality points by the end of the game ... far outstripping T3 or any Jedi. Paired with Jolee to provide Force Valor and other buffs, I'd take Big Z over Juhani as my third character, presuming that, like on Korriban, Bastila is unavailable. But I'd rather have Juhani over T3, with his/its poor offensive ability and inability to "naturally" heal.

Personally, I like Bastilla and Carth. For me, party members aren't about they're aprticular strength's and weaknesses, but how they play out in the game. For instance, I love the NPC dialogue involving those two, whether it with other NPC's, my PC, or people within the story. They just seem to fit with me.
