Thinking about how the current HAM bars work, this would be a good idea for Jedi but not for a BH. If the force bar was visible to others then you could hover your cursor over it to assess the total amount of force available (like you canassess an NPC's HAM)which in turn indicates strength. BHs should not get information on something they are not sensative to. Now for other Jedi, should I not be able to assess another Jedi's strength?

I would imagine a jedi padawan with training (from slaughtering 1 bazillion bols! /sigh) would be able to block a force sensitive person from sensing anything specific about them pretty easily. But nice try!

Or remove our action and mind bars to be viewable only for that person.

This could be used for tactical reasons as the jedi use it. If they see out mind is high and they have little to now force they run! Why can we see that our mind is low and their force is high and also run.

Just a thought im sure has been discussed before please post comments.


I think the Force Bar should just be removed.....but that's me





/agree with wook.

discussion, imo, is sharing of opinions. imo, people who think up these ideas are credit farmers and grievers. i disagreed with the 'positive' aspects of your OP idea and stated why in my prior post. do i care if you did not like the way i put my opinion out there? nope. and yep, jedi who think pearls/crystals are the biggest issue and needs to be dealt with asap are also idiots. but again, just my opinion. you wanted a discussion thread, this is your discussion. i disagreed with your idea and stated why. you are not the first to pop off this idea, by far not the first. i'm sure you saw, read, or heard this somewhere and decided to run with it. good for you, fight for a cause. still, my opinion stands about what i think fighting for this makes you come off as.


your replies mean as much to me as my opinion means as much to you.


dont take it personal, its just a discussion

Yeah you can tell when a Jedi runs out of force...1) they start using low FC attacks (Saberhit) 2) they start to cannibalize action and mind to gain force, 3) their defense macros start to drop due to no force, 4) they start going down really fast

i don't think it should be viewable, im a veteren BH, and it doest take much to figure out when a jedi is low on force. It comes with experience. Leave the force bar the way it is. It is what separates the Experienced Bounty Hunters from the new ones.

on a side note if only jedi,not just those with FS, can see another jedi's force bar then that would work. Of course this wouldnt help BHs but atleast it would be like star wars where a jedi can sense another jedi. You have to be atleast a padawan to see another jedi's force bar. But then again, fighting a jedi would be less guess work and might be less challenging trying to guess the others strength with the force.

You can see a Jedi's action and mind bar just like they can see yours. Action and Mind matter just as much as Force.


The Jedi having a Force bar is already an advantage for the BH. Allowing the BH to see it doubles that already major advantage. Good BH will be able to tell when a Jedi is low on Force without it being visually indicated for them.








I agree with this, from what I here force can run out quicker the action and health. If a BH could see the force bar they would try to force the jedi to use ranged attacks to drain his force. Its probaly one of the only things giving a jedi a slight advantage. But then again if the Jedi runs but still has enough mind and action you pretty much put two to two together.
