Thread: Publish 10 ... holocredit for unlockers.
Not entirely. Yes your main character will become your Force Sensitive character. There is nothing that says you must make it a Jedi however. You may still choose to go through the Force Sensitive quests again with your new character slot and then advance that character as a Jedi. We understand the frustration that this paradigm shift may cause, but there is no easy way to solve it.
If I complete the Force Sensitive quests after publish 10 and open up my Jedi slot, will my main slot or my second slot be Force Sensitive?
After Publish 10, "Trials of the Jedi", a player's Main Slot will become Force Sensitive. At this point, a second character slot will open up. You may choose to develop your main character as a Jedi Knight or you may use your second character slot to develop as a Jedi Knight (thus being able to leave your main character in tact), but you will have to complete the quests from the beginning with the second character."
To me, these questions are the key to my concern. They state that the main slot will be the Jedi character for everyone who unlocksafter Pub10. Therefore, doesn't it mean that everyone who unlocks before Pub10 will still enjoy the benefit of the old system, where the second slot is the Jedi? I have asked the CSR's, who tell me they don't know. But G's comments make me wonder if I only got my main character to the perfect template in vain (I unlocked post-9, 29 professions)). I have made my character the way I want it, and I don't really want to change it to start grinding out Jedi and recreate the same template on my second slot. I also don't want to start over from scratch on my second slot to create a Force sensitive character I have already worked on for a year to achieve.
Any group of developers that can put a great game like SWG together and keep working to improve it (despite jeers and sneers from disgruntled players) deserves respect, so I will maintain professional courtesy throughout any posts I put on the forums. However, it does make my blood boil to think that unlocking as a 'tweenie' will force me to give up a year's worth of work no matter which way I decide. I may, in that event, be relegated to the ranks of 'disgruntled player' myself.
Is there any possibility that we could be given the courtesy of what to expect(concerning which slot will be FS)when Pub10 goes live?

I find that pretty clear, if im right, you will have your main char becme FS and then you will ALSO have a second char slot that you can follow the jedi path with in place of your main char being a jedi. Hope that helps a little.

But why not stop the grind right now?
Because of the three weeks, silly : every branch that we unlock with grinding buys us three weeks timebefore we can start out beloved Jedi !
Just add an extra infinity billion for jedi, and you're all set. That is, until you make knight and you have to pvp continually to make up for FRS exp decay. With enough time in the FRS, that could add up to another infinity billion as well.
