That is the only way our professions are gonna get fixed. If they see nothing but jedi.

I think Jedi will be the end of this game!

Just by looking at how powerful Jedi are now.... jesus... On TC2...


Insane people who are meditating with hugh lines of lightning coming out of their bodies..



This game just turned into Jedi Knight Academy Online...


Seen the FS defense dabblers??Hahaha... Just wait til they get their Robes, and they will be unbeatable in packs!



90% of the player base will become Jedi... And the rest 10% Crafters...


Buhh... I would have gone BH and started to hunt Jedi, if it werent that BH was broken!

Most players will always run to the professions they believe is the most powerful, (I am not sure about everyone else, but I would go to the Theed starport and almost every other player was TKA, TKA student or Mystic at one time) I think holo-grinding stopped many from trying to become a Jedi, but I bet tons will try the quests, I am not sure quite what Sony has planned with the Jedi system, especially if Jedi's become dominant on the game, it could very well turn into Jedi Academy with other professions going extinct, starports will be massive PVP jedi fests, I think the Jedi being so promentaly featured in their ads for this game they feel if they don't allow players good chances of being a jedi they will all quit, and probably why that profession is getting major re-vamps while others have to wait.

I just don't see this happening, myself. Jedi is going to be a pain to level due to the massive exp requirements and skill-loss alone, not to mention player bounties, random deaths, etc.

People said the same thing months ago when the holocraze began, and guess what? I've only seen 3 jedi in-game since last August.


I personally think having the FS abilities will be a boon to the combat rebalance, and it's probably why publish 9 is coming out before the CB. Think about it, using the FS points available you can augment your current profession's skills and become better at what you want to be. No one said you have to be a jedi.


Will almost everyone be FS after a while? Sure, but almost everyone in Star Wars has some affinity with the force to some degree.


Will the servers be flooded with jedi? I seriously doubt it.

Well... On my server it's not like that!

I have experienced first hand a raid of 4-5 Jedis...


I often see Jedis with their tags on, sitting in coronet, in front of star port!


You should see jedi night video, where over 50-70 jedis go hunting all together.. raiding Theed... It's crazy!



There are lots and lots of Jedis around...


And not many said there would be millions of jedis running around when the holo craze, began, but many did say that it would affect the game very bad, with AFKers everywere and insane grinders, and they were right!


Why should people worry about a bounty on their head, when the system is bugged, almost beyond repair?? When BH is not good enouge to take down a high level Jedi(And on test they are insane... even without robes)... Now all armor has valnu to Lightsaber damage type! Even mando! And their already good defenses will be much more when Robes arrive...


Many people will lookin farward to becomming a jedi! This game does not have allot of content... people grow board fast of the dungeons.. same and the same.... Then they would rather get a challange, and something they can relate their love with starwars too like jedi!

Maybe get excitement for being hunted or just controlling a jedi...


And the most important note - They can grind with whatever proffesion they want.. it will be like hunting like people normally would... This is 10000.0000 better for people than mastering 30 proffesions, even if it may take 100-200 hours longer, asuming how many quests you need to do!


I could imagine a mission terminal where you would get jedi faction points... just need 2 billion of does points and you got yourself one of the 24 skills...



Its a no problem for people... many people have no reason to PvP because its bugged and unbalanaced and many people have seen most of it in PVE... dungeons and themeparks gets old fast!


Fact is..... They are making 2 publishes for Jedis... with higher priority than GCW revamp, smuggler/squad leader revamp and combat balance.. Nothing left for experienced gamers to do!

And do not forget about FOTM people... They will want use does insane sabers!


I doubt there will be many people left in the end, except for crafter/scout/medic's... maybe a few marksman, but I think brawler will drop badly in popularity...


I remember taken Swordsman myself, for getting the next best thing after a ligthsaber! I think many feel that way too...


Though I hope im wrong with all this Just doubt it bad!
