Death penalty seems rather extreme. I assume I hit the penalty.Died once, new player exemption, due to the hordes of dark jedi masters in Bestine the other night (I was shuttling there to logout in the hotel, had no force powers, no force, no saber due to known issues and lack of inert gas). When i logged on today, I noticed I was 200k Jedi xp in the hole.
As slow as this stuff accumulates, a single death xp debt totalling many days of 'grinding' (assuming you could find the crystals to do that effectively) seems a little extreme. Dunno, could be intended.

Crystal drops:
Lok, pirates, including elite canyon corsairs. Killed four groups of pirates (4-5 each), zero crystals of any sort dropped. Lost a total of about 30 condition across 5 crystals (1 color, 4 damage) killing these 16 + two nests of critters.

Nests were destroyed solely by force lightning, which caused no new critters to spawn.

Force lightning 1 damage now seems capped at around 600 on the high side, 300 on the low side.

Crystal stats seem beyond random. I have a very good crystal (-8 or so fc, I want to say +77 damage though I bet it's +17 and I'm brain farting) that shows as 'poor'. My other 'poor' crystals range from -7fc to -9fc, and -10 damage to +17 damage or so. Reports of 'good' crystals/pearls don't seem to do hugely better than this (up to +50 damage, -9fc?).

Roaming high threat creatures in capital cities have turned them into deathtraps for lower skill folk (or those coping with the conversion bugs who are defenseless and can't make weapons).

I travelled to every planet but rori. No gas ever spawned in my inventory (I did get a donation from another Jedi, thankfully).
I did appear to get a double crystal allocation somehow (4 color crystals, six damage).

2000 enhance, master lightsaber, 2004 defender, 2204 healer, 1000 powers, Trial eligible (Lok shrine, going to see what I've won when/if I find some more crystals)

At first glance I only seem to have a 4th gen (1handed) schematic, even when at a crafting station. Seems odd I can't use 2/3rds of my specials with my 'best' weapon. Recommend re-syncing jedi xp to damage, as having it attached to force use severely penalizes masters who get 'efficient' sabers through crystal or experimentation, as well those who can't rack up enough crystals (or force regen) to make using higher gen lightsabers survivable.

Training of the starting force professions is STILL bugged (Heightened Senses, Enhanced Reflexes, Combat Prowess etc..) This is from a trainer or a player =I....

Im guessing that these are not in fact bugged. If im understanding correctly these skills are gained as a result of doing the new quests in publish 10and are not trained by either pc or npc trainer (the first weekend when these where trainable im guessing was the bug). Instead you go to a npc, or maybe the shrines and get a quest or set of quests your prize for completing those quests are to get 1 box of an FS skill. then you get a new set of quests and so on till you master that tree. Then go off and find the next quest giving npc/shrine/whatever.

R5 or some other dev reading these would be nice if you could comment on this. I've seen this particular question asked on several different threads over the last 2 weeks. would be much appreciated.

Thank you
