okies...I am confused like so many others but here's what happened to me


Logged into TC2with my long time TC1 character happy to see I was jedi material, went througha force skill selection and someskill line selections after which I was prompted to spend 230 or so skill points on standard skills (not sure if this is right, this is where I am confused) I was able to craft a sabre and had a crystal to load it but the auto macro given to me for the novice lightsaber skill was /saber1hslash and a combat message would state there was no such command.


Thought I was bugged re-rolled my toon to find the same end result as before, re-rolled again mastering BE and CH in the choosing of standard skills and still couldn't use any jedi slash commands


Thought I would have some fun with BE again and sampled some frenzied grauls but the DNA samples can not be used in making a DNA templet (the filter hides them and they can't be dragged manualy) Tried sampling some voritor lizzards and thier DNA can not be used to make a templet as well


Also during the last roll I selected a jedi skillbox that granted animal scare......tried using this but I keep getting a system message that states "you can not use force abilities or special sabre attacks while wearing armor" not wearing anything but a ring (just remembered it, rebel themepark quest ring...prolly causing the problem but wedding rings might need to be checked....unless a jedi craves not these things)


I actually killed agnort with my sabre (tough fight with no specials, this is why I think I am bugged) I was granted a moderate amount of light sabre xp considering it was a gnort, and a whole3 jedi xp


It would be nice if you could get guild/group chat back up....however tells can wait, got a bad feelin' bout that

sorry about the double post....


the statement about the ring is false......didn't see I had a personal shield gen equiped, unequiping allowed me to try to use the scare animal ability..but I don't have enough force power to use scare animal. I didn't have all my force drain when I tried using the ability unlike what was suggested in earlier posts. Also sabre attacks are working on a second toon, guess it just needed some logout time.

I would just like to know


Do you have to be jedi on live to have more advanced jedi skills like for example

I get the option to Choose Novice Force Wielder,Novice Lightsaber Wielder,Novice Force Healer and stuff. But i cannot select any other skills in that tree. yet i see everyone using force attacks. (This refers to the free skill selection when you first log in)

2h Saber Frenzy and phantom attacks do not intimidate as per the skill description. They apply a blind state instead.


2h Phantom doesnt seem to have an AoE effect

Thunderheart :

One of the greatest problems with reporting issues, bugs etc with Jedi, is that most Jedi do not, and will not, post on the SOE forums.

As you know, any thread about Jedi instantly attracts attention, and not always the type you want.
Most of us Jedi gave up on the SOE forums for Jedi discussions and moved off to 2 private forums - this is where the revamp is really getting talked about.

This is far from ideal, as all that excellent discussion will not get seen by any devs.
I would suggest that the admins of the 2 main forums allow the devs access to these forums, just so you can read whats in there - I know Vass used to frequent one of them.
There is less clutter there, so the opinions, bugs etc are easier to see.
I agree it would be preferable for all those posts to be recreated here, but many Jedi gave up on the SOE boards long ago (just look in the Jedi forums to see why), as we cannot discuss tactics etc openly, because of the type of profession Jedi is, and the jedi forums are full of "guess my silent" "nerf jedi" "omg a jedi is exploiting" posts, which bury any useful information.

Please excuse the tone of this note, but I cannot find a 'polite' way to put this without adding a WHOLE lot of words that may dilute the meaning.


If this is the official test forum for the revamp, then this is where anyone who wishes to address issues with the revamp should post. Yes, this forum (like all others) can be choc full of waste material, but to have the devs have to jump from site to site, instead of it being in one location, is unfair. My suggestion would be to pull yourself up by your light sabers and post here on the public forums so everyone can see what is going on, test what is up, and go from there. No need to post strategies, names or other such thing.


If Jedi will not post, then their thoughts and ideas will not be taken into consideration.


P.S. - since the revamp started testing, I haven't seen any "Guess my silent" or "Nerf Jedi" posts.

Two characters were flagged for TC2, i don't have jedi on live.


First character i got the novice lightsaber tree, spent the other skill points on master tka and master pistoleer for the melee defense.


Wasn't given any crafting tool, resources, robe, lightsaber.


One of the QA guys were handed out the crafting tools, grouped and found resources to make 2 1st gen one handed sabers.


Can't find any crystals to loot so i am unable to test my only skill tree.


2nd character I got Force Wielder but I get an error message when i try and use animal scare.


From what i have seen with some fellow jedi the forcerun doesn't work , it has the graphic effect but same speed.


Can't check bazaar, having trouble shuttling some places, no groupchat, can't send tells.


First things first, we need our colour crystals badly, i hear that they don't last long either. There has to be a way for a jedi to have the ability to find crystals easily, even if it means making these types less powerful then the ones dropped as loot.


For example: do a /findmytrainer, talk to him and another option should be there:

I need to find crystals, the NPC gives you a waypoint, once there you forage and find your crystal. Or get crystal finding missions from a trainer that spawns NPCs with a higher chance of finding one then the regular missions.


I got taugh Jedi Knight and can teach that skill to others.


Old jedi trees still in the system..


I don't understand why we have to do 100+ missions or walk to the Tusken Fort with 0 scout skills just to get a colour crystal. This is a major time sink and doesn't make any sense for it to be like this on Test Center.

3rd gen 2hand cert does not work, flurry and flurry 2 moves do not intimidate but blind instead.


Cost to turn force shield/armor off, same as the price to turn it on.


Moves still take force power even if there isnt enough, just like live.


Sabers are not armor piercing 3 *wink

A couple more issues:


1) I was scanned by imperial stormtroopersin Kaadara with lightsaber in top level inventory. Was told I was clean. Didn't have it equipped at the time.


2) Sampling for lightsaber resources. Was in a spot that was 27% and was told multiple times that I am able to only locate trace amounts. I've sampled before at low concentrations and gotten 1/2 units per sampling.


3) Was attacking a nuna lair outside of New Unity. I was able to do damage and defeat the nunas. Their lair on the other handI was not able to scratch. The combat chatbox listed me as doing damage, but I wasn't getting any reduction on the "health" of the lair. I deliberatly took the lair down till it had about 100 left with unarmed, then switched to saber. Nothing doing. Saber didn't do anything to the lair.


4) Jedi xp not showing up immediately when examined on the skills window. After relogging the correct experience shows up

Jedi trainers are aparently broken, they ask you if you want to learn initiate, ,which costs 250 skill points.
Bazaars & Vendors dont work.
New charecters starting out dont start with there chosen profession & equipment.
The Medium Armor peircing bonus on Lightsabers appears to be a mute point for bonus when fighting mobs with 0 ressist.

There is no defense against the force weaken then force choke combo, this devastating attack cant be prevented, even by master force defense & enhancment jedi, There should be a counter to this.

Lairs take 0 damage from lightsaber attacks.

Overt imperial jedi can be attacked by covert rebel jedi.

There seems to be an issue with the stats on damage crystals from certain mobs. 3min 12max, 44 condition from nightsister elder doesnt seem right.

HEALALLSELF1 doesnt cure fire.

when weakend / choked into incapacitation, regain conciousness does not seem to work.

/forceMeditate

considering this skill gives u a TEF and fires lightning into the sky making it obvious to everyone with about 2k of u , what u are and where u are .. couldnt it be improved in terms of regeneration somewhat? I mean its fast .. but to regen a knight level pool still takes freaking ages

Hi all,


I have found the following since using the TC2 jedi.


(1) I was able to create a master sabre, master Defence, 4000 in powers and novice in the other 2. This was all fine. But.


(2) Not able to survey at all.
