Questions for the Devs from the Community:

I realize that there are alot of questions here. Any answers would be appreciated by the Jedi/Force Sensitive Communities. Thanks.

Force Sensitive Profession:
1.Will the old Mind Buff Crystals ever have a use again? This was a long and hard quest to get a now worthless paperweight.

Very good question, I thought it was going to become a Mind Regen Crystal but let's see what they say

2.Phase 3 Capture Enemy Leadership - Sith Commander moves way too slow and refuses to climb hills making only 1 base (the one nearest the Village) viable to complete the quest. Any Chance of getting this fixed?

I suppose this one is the most pressing issue of all as Phase 3 is just round the corner now. I sense many tickets being submitted and much frustration if this remains as it is.

3.Can we get a break down of what each Force Sensitive skills are supposed to do exactly? Some of them have less than accurate descriptions that are often misleading.

True, though I am more concerned with balancing the FS skills as post CU some of them seem to be out of balance (ranged/melee defence is not all that valuable now for instance) and some are plain broken.

4.The first attack after the Old man visit has 3 Sith attackers with level 75 and Up. This is not possible for people without near finished templates. Think we can tone those attackers CL down a bit?

I understand that Sith Shadows pre-CU were a lot easier to handle, I am not sure, however,their levels need decreasing. In a sense their level being so high represents the value of the Village and by making them CL50- 60 (or less) we would be slightly devaluing the FS route.

I fully understand that non combat oriented professions (especially crafters)and non CL80 players have a hard time fending off the Sith Shadows, but I suggest grouping following the first visit of the Old Man (you should not have to wait for more than a day or two) or keeping a swoop ready. This is how I did it as well

I have also started a thread in the Force Sensitive forum with helpers volunteering for this specific task!

But by all means contradict me, this is just my opinion

5.Some FS trees are broken, (such as the healing tree giving mods no longer needed and one tree in crafting which lowers the chance to fail while assembly when that was removed many publishes ago)

Very good point, see my comment above for3.

6.Will there be a chance to convert jedi xp to FS xp?

This would also be very nice especially if people wanted to train in another FS branch after they have become Jedi!

I am sure others will come up with other questions but having an answer for the above would be good enough for me at the moment.

When do you expect to get an answer by the way?

When are the Pearl drops getting fixed? Jedi is a worthless profession without decent pearls to equip Lightsabers properly. This is obviously needed to be able to fend off the multiple BH encounters especially with the inadequate healing abilities of a Jedi at the moment and/or the every day grind.

This should be the number one priority for jedi atm. Lots of the new Jedi have incredible weak sabers that are on par with marksman or brawler weapons, not elite ones. Personaly I have a near perfect set of pearls so mine does sufficient damage, the problem lies with new jedi who only have around 120 base dps sabers and such.

very good stuff Stuff. Hope we get some answers.

these "first" and "second" posts show why the jedi profession is in its current state, i wish there was an age check for this game.

That wouldnt filter out the "First" and "Second" posts, although it might help out in the department of OMGZORZWTFPWNEDKTHXBYE kids.

I am 32 and your both way off base. Your assumptions on my age andbeing a leet hacker kid do nothing but make you both look like idiots, I did the 1st thing as a joke to Baciacca. At least i read the post and put my 2 cents in.....what did you 2 contribute to this thread.

Please ask that there be something like general lightsaber accuracy or general lightsaber speed added throughout the LS tree since most other professions get the general ranged speed that builds on all their weapons. Also if the damage range could be expanded and raised even a little on Lightsabersit would be a great help.

There is a very big danger for GCW waiting for us. I read in the patch notes that cloaked Jedi will not be able to targeted. This will make cloaked Jedi very easy to reset pvp base countdowns. Once again raiding will be pointless.

I think cloak needs a longer cooldown so it can not be chain used. While pvping, it's only annoying, but with Publish 20, it will be a base killer.

---

Hopefully they will tag it so cloaked jedi cant perform teh shutdown action. If they do this then all will be good. I hope they do something 70% percent of our decent pvp comes from base raiding.

good questions

What about the suggestion for a Master/Apprentice relationship? will this be implemented as a part of the new FRS system?

no one knowes

"1.When are the Pearl drops getting fixed? Jedi is a worthless profession without decent pearls to equip Lightsabers properly. This is obviously needed to be able to fend off the multiple BH encounters especially with the inadequate healing abilities of a Jedi at the moment and/or the every day grind."

This is a huge issue and needs addressed ASAP, either that or allow us to get Jedi xp while using laser rifles.

Great questions

just hope we get a few answers

the way i see it 4000 healer is great but the timer needs to be reduced, how about 4 seconds ?

sabre damage does need a little tweak to bring it in line or are we meant to be weilding Cdef sabre's
