Right heres an idea it's probably already been mentioned but i dont feel up to readin that much info
the sujestion of minor/hidden/failed jedi's is a fair one but couldnt it be ppl who are force sensitive but have worked out how to use little chunks of the force for their own gain E.G maybe u could go to a very succesful trader or merchant and he could train u in force persuasion or somthin similar

Cyton ran out of the cantina into the bright Tatooine Twin Suns. The shuttle was already beginning its decent into the Mos Eisley Starport. He'd have to hurry. He wasn't sure why his buyer on Rori was so interested in Alderaan Flora, but the sooner it was sold the better his chances to avoid Jabba's wrath.
"Its about time. I've been waiting for you."
Cyton looked at the old Zabrak that had appeared out of nowhere, and scowled.
"Sorry, old man, don't have time to build you a Hyperdrive part again," he called over his shoulder. Turning toward the starport, Cyton doubled his pace.
The Zabrak watched Cyton disappear into the crowd and shrugged.
"You're right. . . he is reckless," he said seemingly to himself. "But there will be others."
The path to unlock the Force-sensitive slot could be linked to a series of random NPC missions. Each completed mission would result in the reward of a (redesigned) Holocron. The Holocron, instead of giving a profession, would simply state one of the tenets of the Jedi code. These Holocrons should be flagged as untradable. Once a set of Holocrons are collected, they would be presented to either Luke or Vader. The player would then be given a mission to rescue/convert aFS locked in an imperial prison. Upon successful rescue/conversion, that FS becomes the player's new character.
- The beginning Holocron missions can be linked to every kind of mission and is accessable by every profession.
- Those already on the path to Jedi characters can be rewarded a redesigned Holocron for every profession they completed under the old system.
- The final "dungeon" can be played by all players with a variety of objectives. . . the FS target will only spawn for the Holocron mission.
There are many good ideas for Jedi missions, but I hope that this helps with the path to unlock the FSCS.

Make it so that only newly made characters have to do this new quest based system of becoming a Jedi, because I'm on profession number 16ish and I'd be kind of irritated and would possibly take a hammer to my computer if the method was changed on my 30th profession or something...
Dunno, that's just me though... All that work... then the slot changes and I'm sitting thinking... "Just 2 more weeks.... I would have had it in just 2 more weeks!!!! ARRRHHHGGGHHHH!!!!!"
Know what I mean?

I think the path to jedi should still involve mastering professions but I think that a change should be made so that only trainers can train you to master. That way if you have mastered one of the professions in your path the trainer can send you on a profession specific quest. During the quest you will learn which proffesion you are to master next. This eliminates the need for holos which are expensive and bias the game agianst a lot of professions that don't stand a chance against force sensitive characters.

I hear all this talk about Jedi is end game content blah blah blah. That is why some people find this game lacking. Jedi shouldn't be end game content. Besides being terrible linear, it doesn't encourage people to keep playing after they have attained Jedi Master.
Make new "end game" content, and integrate the Jedi class into the game as a playable profession which can interact with the rest of thier galaxy's population.

These are all good idas, but it should also be important or of value/matter if the player has equired profession or explorer badges, and make them also count towards the new fscs quest. So those people who spent alot of their time in profession grinding dont feel deluded or be overlooked.
Or leave the holo grind in as a 2ndary way to open the fscs

I would say make some popup quests where a jedi pops out of nowhere in the wilderness or cityand the first player that talks to him isable to take his mission whether that be a crafting, explore, or combat mission. And if your not able to do that mission because your not a crafter or combatant, then tought luck, maybe next time you will get that mission down your alley.
Then after completing the quest,the says you must go to this location at this time and place and talk to another jedi. And maybe you can have up to 24 hours to talk to that npc and complete the mission before he disappears again and you are left in the dark, having to do it over again. It might be frustrating, but Jedi are supposed to be rare during this time period and only the ones who take this chance of everything or nothing quests will be rewarded. Of course also as a way to stop other players from interacting with your quest jedi, it will be meant for you only and nobody else.

- I would say make some popup quests where a jedi pops out of nowhere in the random wilderness or cityand the first player that talks to him/her isable to take his random mission whether that be a crafting, explore, or a combat mission.He/she should also give you the mission thatmost predominately reflects your profession like Bounty Hunters for combat and so forth.
Then after completing the quest,the jedi says you must go to this location at this time and talk to another jedi. Of course also as a way to stop other players from interacting with your jedi who continues your quests;the missions aftercompleting the first jedi quest will bemeant for you and you only and nobody else. And maybe you can have up to1 weekor soto talk to that jedi npc and complete the mission before he disappears again and you are left in the dark, having to dothe missions allover again if you are able to find him again that is. There should be many missions like these that take place over the timespan of many months and should get harder as you progress and even maybe the timelimit will become more demanding.
- Also as far as the missions go, there should be plenty of variety and shouldn't just be intended for one planet. Like for example you find a jedi who gives you a quest on Corellia, but the mission he/she gives is somewhere deep in Dathomir, then the jedi tells you to go to another place like Talus to meet him/her after you complete the mission to supply you with another waypoint to the next jedi who will in turn give you the next quest. This way, the jedi missions are very dynamic and aren't in the same locations each time.
It might be frustrating, but the Jedi are supposed to be rare during this time period and only the bestplayers who are willing to take this hard journey of everything or nothing jedi quests will be rewarded.
