It was mentioned in the announcement of the new Jedi System that they would be allowingpre-Jedi people to spend skillpoints towards 'Force Sensitivity.' They also hinted that this would result in small improvements to the FS character basic skills, like Crafting, Combat, etc.
What sort of improvements do you think an Image Designer that is slightly Force Sensitive should get?

Odd that this should come up... I was talking about this tonight with my IG wife. I don't know if anything will specifically relate to Image Design... but wouldn't it be hilarious if just ONCE in a while, we could force someone to accept a change? I know it'll NEVER happen... but how hilarious would that be? *waves hand* /forceHairColor 127 "There you are Mr. 1337 d00d Macho Fighter... bubble gum pink hair!"

Timer Reduction comes to mind most readily.
But I'm not holding my breath, from all appearances [from Test/Client leaks], FS doesn't benefit entertainer skills at all.

Bummer. I seriously hope they rethink that.
Timer reductions are good,
I also think a special FS Holoemote would be neat as well.
They could also do particle effects/special artfor the ID themselves only. Think about it, shouldn't a FSMaster Image Designer have a look more unique than the average Image Designer, just like a FS Carbineer would shoot better than the average Carbineer? The easiest way would be an uniqueaura effect like Brainstorm that was self only.
I guess they could give us the Combat power to de-Mitigate someone.. shift all their Stats to Action, or Health. But I think that's going a little over the top.

I have several padawans on TC2 [I like playing on TC 
]. One of them went the crafting route; I've not seen anything that would benefit an ID.

I don't believe there is anything for the Entertainer professions. Myself and the other three Ent corrs are asking about it nevertheless

i think i would feel short-changed as an entertainer if there were not force-sensitive additions for entertainers. there apparently are for combat and crafter classes.

Bit off topic, but just commenting here.
Yea they do appear to be in for the Crafter Classes, but an interesting sidenote, the experimentation bonus that they get is just to their "success rate" and doesn't increase the # of Exp Points they get currently [it behaves like cities]. Not sure if that's a bug or intentional though. But it is still a benefit.
For ID, I see a very obvious benefit, timer reduction [and I still dislike the MID timer changes so I ignore them for this discussion
].For other Entertainers though? I don't know. Only things that 'spark' to mind are increasing Entertainer buff effectiveness and decreasing their time to apply.
Something to remember is that these FS bonuses are for most intents and purposes just pure mechanical bonuses, and not "new abilities". And that's a rather good thing to try to stem the "everyone must become Jedi to meet the new baseline of the game" that some are fearing will come to the GCW.
