SECTION 1 - GENERAL INFO:

I've been collecting information on the CURB and thought I'd throw it all together into a post for others to use. Hope you all enjoy it.

Purposes:

1. To provide numerical data and supporting information about all current Jedi skills/abilities and disciplines


2. To outline the numerical tweaks required to balance disciplines


3. To highlight current bugs with jedi skils/abilities

Explanation of States:

+Stun+:Stops all action regeneration[CURRENTLY BUGGED]
+Dizzy+ = Greatly reduces defense and slightly reducesaccuracy[CURRENTLY BUGGED]
+Blind+ = Slightly reduces defense and greatly reduces accuracy[CURRENTLY BUGGED]
+Intimidate+ = Reduce damage dealt by 20%

Bleed / Fire / Poison = Health DOT (Damage Over Time)

+Snare+ = Slow movement speed
+Root+ = Stop all movement
Armor Break = Reduced Armor effectiveness (affects both physical and "Innate Armor")

Post-CURB, accuracy is useful in 2 ways:

1. Higher accuracy increases to-hit chance


2. If attacker's accuracy is greater than defender's defense (melee/ranged), extra damage is added to the hit.

There are also to-hit and damage modifiers based on relative Character Levels of attacker and defender.

Defense vs Accuracy reduces Damage Range:

Every weapon has a damage range, which is the minimum-maximum amount of damage the weapon can deal (before any modifiers from special abilities).

The higher an attacker's accuracy vs the defender's defense, the closer the actual damage is to maximum damage.

The lower an attacker's accuracy vs the defender's defense, the closer the actual damage is to the minimum damage.

egA lightsaber has482-578 damage range:

In a case when the defense vs accuracy is very close (eg 200 melee accuracy and 200 melee defense), the saber will do "578" damage.

But the further defense is above the attacking Jedi's accuracy, the further that value will be moved towards 482.

The shorter the range between min and max, the less effect defense will have on reducing the damage. The longer the range between min and max, the more defense will reduce the damage.

Armor rating:

~6000 is good armor (for crafted armor)

NOTE: All damage values are based on pvp damage of lvl80 Jedi vs. lvl80 non-Jedi unarmored player.
Time = Time to use skill = time between skill activation and being able to use another ability (using the same ability twice in a row takes 1.5x as long)
DPS = Damage Per Second - How quickly you can deal damage
DPF = Damage Per Force (point) - How force-efficient the damage is
(Imp.) = Improved
(Adv.) = Advanced
A / M%= Action/Mind cost (% of total Action/Mind)

Calculations are rounded to 1 or 2 decimal places where appropriate.

When possible, bugs are listed in order of relative importance.

2) +STUN+ state has no effect: The State +STUN+ have no effect on player's HAM regen rates. It is meant to reduce action/mind regeneration rates. [Expected to be fixed in upcoming patch]

3) There is no combat spam for mezzes, making it impossible to track them in the combat log.

4) Character Sheet shows uncapped results: With a full BE dress the Character Sheet shows "+64 Defense", although there is meant to be a cap of "+25". This is misleading and creates confusion.

All Power crystals appear White and their grade can only be viewed by someone with at least Jedi Initiate. Higher grade crystals are likely to be tuned to have better stats, although there is a wide range of values for outcomes of tunes.

These are the possible grades,from worst to best: Poor, Fair, Good, Quality, Select, Premium, Flawless

Pearls:

These are functionally identical to Power crystals, however they are only lootable from Krayt Dragons (Tatooine).

They are meant to have slightly higher maximum stats than an equivalent-quality power crystal. (Crystal max damage = 110, Pearl max damage = 120)

SECTION 9 - FRS INFO:

The Force Ranking System (FRS) includes the Jedi Knight Trials and progression through Force Ranks as a Light/Dark Jedi.

Post CURB, each FRS rank is meant to give a bonus to +Lightsaber Block, to a maximum of +60 Lightsaber Block (excludes skill bonus from lightsaber tree and Force Valor). This would grant a total +85 Lightsaber Block for a Master Lightsaber Jedi at the highest rank, but this could go higher using Force Valor or CAs that give +Lightsaber Block.

The FRS was disabled for the CURB due to technical issues involving the respec process, and is intended to be re-enabled "with improvements" in the future (according to the devs). No information about specifics of changes have been made.

UPDATE: It was recently stated by devs that a "new design" for the FRS was recently submitted to Lucas to get the "OK". (This may mean they are "revamping" the FRS, whichcouldmakeit take longer to code/test before we see the FRS back on live servers)

No ETA has been given.

It is unknown whether Jedi who were Knights pre-CURB will need to redo their trials to become a Jedi Knight again.

Until FRS is re-enabled, it is impossible for a Jedi Padawan with a "full" template of Jedi skills to progress any further in terms of personal advancement.
Until FRS is re-enabled, becoming a Jedi Knight is impossible. (Players who were Jedi Knights pre-CURB still retained their "Jedi Knight" title)

Visibility is a measure of how active Jedi have been near NPCs & other players. As a Jedi uses their abilities in public, their Visibility increases to a point where they "get on the terms", meaning Bounty Hunters can take up a bounty mission to hunt that Jedi down.

You gain visibility by equipping a lightsaber, initiating combat with a lightsaber, and using any Jedi-related skills that consume Force power within range of other players or NPC's. You will gain a little at a time for using it in front of a few people. Do it in front of a lot of people (like in a starport) and you will almost immediately appear on the BH Terminals.

The range for visibility is 32 meters. Performing any of the above acts in front of PC/NPC’s within that range will increase your visibility.

The increase to a Jedi's Visibility Value (JVV) is determined as follows:

• 
  
  An opposing faction member who views this action will add the full value of the action to the Jedi Visibility Value.


• 
  
  ACivilian PC or non-animal NPC will increase the JVV by 50% of the action's Jedi Visibility Modifier.


• 
  
  A same-faction PC or non-animal NPC will increase the JVV by 25% of the action's Jedi Visibility Modifier.

Being grouped with a PC or non-animal NPC who is viewing this action has no influence on how Jedi Visibility is obtained. In other words, group members will still increase your visibility regardless.

Note that forCivilian Jedi everyone else is consideredCivilian when calculating the increase to visibility. No one is considered to be of an allied or opposing faction and will always increase the JVV by 50% of the action’s Jedi Visibility Modifier.

Visibility decays over time, taking three weeks to decay fully.

Jedi Bounty Missions:

Once you have gained enough visibility you will appear on the Bounty Hunter Terminals, where up to five BH's can pick up the mission and try to hunt you down to kill you.

Bounty Hunters with a mission will gain a BH TEF (Temporary Enemy Flag)that allows them to freely attack the Jedi that they have a mission for.

Once the BH attacks the Jedi the BH TEF will be shared, allowing the Jedi to attack the BH back.

At this point both players will be put in a healing “lock down” situation, where outside parties (including group members) cannot perform healing or beneficial actions on either player. You can still be attacked though if you are PvP Enabled - Special Forces.

The healing “lock down” is supposed to be removed once the battle ends.

If the BH kills you he will complete the mission and receive the reward. Your Visibility should be reset after this and all other BH’s with your mission should fail it.

If you kill the BH, then only that BH will fail the mission and lose the BH TEF on you. All other BH’s with your mission will maintain it and your Visibility will still remain the same.

Jedi must deathblow BH’s in order to make them fail their mission.

There are currently many problems with BH Jedi Missions, such as triple incapping a Jedi to avoid losing the BH TEF, the BH TEF not clearing after killing the Jedi, healing being allowed through the “lock down”, entering private structures during combat, and so on... (as well as the potential for griefing)

SECTION 11 - EARNING/LOSING JEDI XP

Earning Jedi XP:

Currently full XP is granted for a kill if the player hits the creature (with a damaging attack) at least once. If multiple people attack the same creature, the person who does most damage gets full xp (ie xp/loot rights) and others get none. Players that are grouped count as "one person" for determining xp/loot rights, so if only one group kills a creature, every person in the group gets full xp.

Higher level creatures grant more XP.

A 10% bonus XP is granted for every level the creature is above the player's lvl (So getting CL82 missions is better than CL80 missions).
An additional 5% bonus XP if NPC was a aggressive/assists nearby NPCs
An additional 5% bonus XP if was a killer (ie Deathblows an incapacitated player)

Inspiration buffs (by watching/listening to entertainers) grant an additional 10% bonus XP.

Killing creatures 10 or more levels LOWER than your own grants no xp.

If you use any non-Jedi abilities in combat, you will gain an amount of the relevant xp, but this subtracts from the Jedi XP earned per kill. (eg using medic abilities like Bacta Stim to heal in combat might give you 200 medic xp, but then you'd only get 800 Jedi XP; instead of the full 1000 Jedi XP if you'd only used your lightsaber)

Losing Jedi XP:

Jedi now only suffer XP loss due to being Deathblowed (DB'd) by a Bounty Hunter who has the Jedi's Bounty mission.

No Jedi XP is lost from cloning!

Dying in PvE, regular PvP (not BH) and in space causes no xp loss.

How XP loss is calculated:

Payout for Jedi Missions is now 1000 times the number of skill points the Jedi has devoted to Jedi skills (doesn't includeForce Sensitive skills). The maximum payout(for a Padawan) is 226,000 credits.

Jedi experience loss for dying from a BH with a mission is twice the payout of the mission, or rather 2000 times the number of skill points the Jedi has spent on Jedi skills (unless they've been killed by a BH recently, then it's the minimum loss - BUGGED?).

Maximum XP loss: -452,000 XP (Jedi Padawan with all skill points spent on Jedi skills)

This penalty is incurred at the moment the BH deathblows the Jedi, so Regain Consciousness penalties still apply as well if used.

WARNING: If a BH kills you while you have inspiration buff, you also lose an additional 10% XP.

If a Jedi is defeated by a BH their payout will default to the minimum (25K) for a3 days.[BUGGED]

Negative XP:

Unlike any other type of XP, Jedi XP can "fall below 0", such that the Jedi has "negative Jedi XP". This negative XP debt, or "hole" must be reduced to 0 by earning Jedi XP normally before the Jedi starts earning "positive" Jedi XP.

eg if you're Jedi XP = -100,000 then you must earn 100,000 Jedi XP before you will start earning "positive" Jedi XP (towards spending on skills)

The cap for negative XP is -10 million and it will not 'decay', so be careful!

  Final Lightsaber Names:

    Fourth Generation Lightsaber

    Two-Handed Fourth Generation Lightsaber

    Double-Bladed Fourth Generation Lightsaber


• 
  
  Lightsaber Resource Requirements Inconsistencies:
  
  
  
  
  • 
    
    The Second Gen Double-Bladed requirements for the Activator Mechanism (42x Non-Ferrous Metal) and the Handgrip (20x Inert Petrochemical) seem reversed when compared to the other generations of Double-Bladed sabers.
  
  
  • 
    
    The requirements for the First Generation One-Handed and Two-Handed Lightsabers are different, while all other generations of the two sabers have the exact same requirements. Shouldn’t they be the same also, since they are basically the exact same hilt?
  
  
  • 
    
    The Third and Fourth Generations of the Double-Bladed Lightsaber have the exact same requirement for the Emitter Shroud as the One-Handed and the Two-Handed Lightsabers, shouldn’t it require slightly more resources (based on the first two generations)?
  
  
  • 
    
    Not to be too nit-picky, but shouldn’t all generations of the Double-Bladed Lightsaber require two Focusing Crystals?

FRS ADVANCEMENT:

QUOTE (JustG from the FRS designer):
In order to advance the player must first acquire the appropriate amount of experience. This experience is granted through PVP actions. The experience can also be lost through PVP defeats as well as not performing prescribed. Only Jedi within the FRS may earn or lose this PVP experience. Same-side PvP will generally not yield any XP exchange between players. The only exceptions are XP exchange as a result of either a dark side arena challenge or a dark side pvp "condition" – "petitioner sudden death" for instance. I.e. if two same-ranked petitioners in the force rankings kill one another, they should exchange XP.

Once the experience costs have been met, the player is eligible for advancement into the next higher Rank. Whenever an open slot becomes available for a Rank in which that player meets the requirements, he may petition for it. After 1day of open petitioning, every existing member within the Tier that is granting the advancement (with the exception of those petitioning) have 1 day to vote on their selection. Open petitioning is the phase of voting during which players interested in advancing, "put their names into the hat". After the petitioning phase, voting starts. Voting simply consists of indicating which player you think should get the spot. There are no "against" votes, only "for" votes. Think "tick marks". Votes within the rank of advancement count double. The player with the most votes is given 1 day to accept the promotion via the voting terminal. If he does not accept within the one day, his win is nullified and a new round of petitioning begins. In the advent of ties, the winner is randomly selected. If there is more than one seat open at the close of voting, the top vote getters each receive a chance to accept the promotion. In the advent that no seats are available at the voting close (someone was demoted into that slot), the highest vote getter is recorded. Once a slot is freed, he may immediately accept the promotion without further voting provided that he still meets eligibility for the new rank.

Within the Dark Rankings, this petitioning for a new Rank enables PvP among all candidates of also seeking that same position. If a Jedi slain by a rival candidate during this time, he is removed from the vote. All votes on him are transferred to the victor.

All Dark Jedi PvP conditions (currently the only condition active in the system is the "Petitioner Sudden Death" condition, mentioned above in connection with the voting system) are registered in the enclave. When a player comes online, the player object queries the enclave for his/her "PvP Condition Enemies". The player then activates a "permanent" enemy flag against all enemies returned from the enclave. Whenever a PvP condition starts, all players are currently notified via system messages that explain which player/group they are enemies with.

In the case of the "sudden death" pvp action, if a dark jedi is slain by a fellow petitioner, all votes that the loser has accumulated will be distributed amongst all of the fellow petitioners who were involved in the players death. It is possible (known, shippable issue) that a perma enemy flag persists beyond the expiration of the PvP condition. This can occur if a PvP conditions expires (i.e. voting concludes, in this case) while the players are online. If the Jedi choose to kill each other after the condition has expired, but they are still flagged, they will neither gain nor lose Jedi XP for that kill/death. This is an issue we hope to be able to resolve in the future.

When a player advances to a new Rank, he automatically gains the corresponding skill box, receiving all of its benefits.

Example:

Player A is of Rank II. He has 30,000 experience and is therefore eligible to advance to Rank III. When an opening within Rank III is created, he petitions for it. Two other players within his Rank do likewise. After 1 day, the voting begins. Every player in the first Tier (Ranks I, II, III, and IV) is able to vote. Since this is a promotion into Rank III, the votes of the players in this Rank are doubled. If Player A receives more votes than any other player he is eligible for promotion. If he accepts this promotion from the voting terminal during the "Acceptance" phase, the Rank III skill is automatically granted to him, along with any abilities it contains.

Players will receive email notifications in regards to voting issues.

Update: Addition to the Light Side FRS advancement opportunities

A new system in the Light Side FRS that enables a Jedi, at the cost of Force Rank XP, to issue a No-Confidence Challenge against a member one rank above their own. Everyone at the challenged rank and lower can vote. If 2/3 of the votes are for the challenge, that player is reduced by one rank, opening it up for a new petitioner. This is similar to the Dark Side’s Arena Challenge system, but with a Light Side twist, providing a chance for ranked Jedi to progress once the upper ranks become bloated.

Nothing happens to the challenger if the vote fails (of course, the challenged player may want a little revenge). A player can only issue one challenge a week and it costs 2000 experience regardless of the outcome. Also, if a player is demoted and the lower rank is full, the system will make “room” for them by temporarily overloading that rank.

FORCE RANKING MODS:

Force Control: Increases the strength of any healing or enhancement effects.
Force Manipulation: Increases the efficiency of any Force ability.
Force Power: Increases the strength of any offensive Force attack.

(Note: all Force Control (CNTRL), Force Manipulation (MANIP), and Force Power (POWER) mods listed are cumulative.)

Light Enclave: Yavin IV (-5575, 4905)

Dark Enclave: Yavin IV (5079, 305)

Enclaves can only be entered by Jedi Knights

To start the Knight Trials you must kneel in front of your Force Shrine (on the planet you were told to go to), click on the urn, and select "Meditate" from the radial menu.

To see the current ranks of the FRS Jedi on your side (once becoming a Knight) you can use "/showCouncilRank".

Reportedly, the "Jedi Master" title is gained by reaching rank 8 (Arbiter/Oppressor) in the FRS.

Force Rank experience can only be gained by killing other opposing side Jedi. Normal players will yield 0 FR XP (but you still lose FR XP if killed by them). The only exception to this is Master Bounty Hunters, FR XP can be gained by killing them as well.
