Generally, what's faster. Speeders, Swoops, or Speeder bikes? Thanks.

Swoops are fastest, followed by speeder bikes then slowest are the land
speeders.

Although if you get Force Reflexes you can control any of them much better.
No1 is correct, although I prefer my landspeeder. I don't know why, it just
seems more "Star Wars-ish" to me

I just find the viewing difficult while driving a land speeder. I do like
the sound of the speeder bike better than a swoop though.

Yeah, nothin is more fun than drivin on Dathomir, gettin stuck in a tree and
gettin ganked by a Nightsister Ranger or a Rhoa Kwi when scent decides to
wear off at that exact moment Good waste of 20 min travel time, hehe.

Yeah, I prefer my speeder bike over the swoop. It may be a bit slower but I
like the look and sound of it much better. Land speeders are nice, I keep
one as a backup.

I always use swoops when hunting while buffed - no sense wasting valuable
time sight-seeing....hehe.

Depends on terrain, flat the above is correct but rough like that on
Tat and the swoop is the slowest when climbing, something to remember
if you need to get away from someone on a swoop. Speeder is best all
around iirc.

The AV-21 Landspeeder is the fastest vehicle in the game

This may be bugged. There was some talk in the forums a few weeks ago
that the vehicle control part of Force powers is a waste of time right now.

Really? Nice to know so I'll avoid it for now. Thanks for the heads up.

True. On flat ground its no faster than a swoop BUT it goes up hills much faster.

Too bad they can not be tweaked like space vehicles.
