Thread: Visibility question

I'm a Padawan and don't want any visibility. I don't use my saber or powers around any players or humanoid npc's. It's pretty much reserved for group hunting (Thanks a ton to Pub. 20). Here's what happened to me and prompted my question. I went to Ft. Tuscan to meet some guildmates. I had my Vibrolance equiped, and no robes on. I met my group there and they asked why I had my saber equipped. I logged out the night before with my saber equipped but switched as soon as I logged in. Pretty much, just a graphics glitch in game. My question is, will this somehow cause any visability. I was fighting for a few mins in front of other players and NPC humanoids. on my screen, it showed me with my lance in hand. weird situation, but I'd just like to know if this could cause vis.

thanks for any responces.

Hold your breath...It's a bug. Yes, yes its true. A bug slipped by the crackshot QA dept.


You see yourself wielding a lance or rifle while your buddies see you swinging a flashlight. Check the combat logs, they should say you did X amount with a rifle. I doubt this causes vis but seeing as how corpses of NPC's cause vis I wouldn't be surprised a bit. In fact at this point in time, nothing in this game surprises me.

thanks for the responces. I did check my log as soon as someone told me they saw a saber in my hands. it showed damage w/ my lance, so I'm sure it's just a crazy bug. they people who told me I was attacking, the blade on the saber wasn't on. must have looked funny to them. As a new paddy, I always try to stay off the terms. I know, I know.....bh's hunting jedi are part of the game. I'm not a cry baby and gonna moan and groan if I get killed. it's just a bh doing what a bh is meant to do. But, thanks to the new pub. I have a lot better oppertunity to keep myself off the terms if I just play it smart. that's why I don't ever leave my house w/ my saber in hand if I'm not going to meet my grind group. don't want that off chance I forget to go back On Leave and have a trooper attack me in Theed and the blade lights up.


once again, thanks for the quick responces. have fun out there

Hi all. I tried a search on this and couldn't find an answer so thought I'd ask it here. I just started my Jedi leveling yesterday and decided I was going to keep my Master Doc as long as I could (I really enjoy helping and healing players in Eisley and love the roleplay). So last nightI was standing by a group that just came back from a mission and were banged up a bit so I sent a bacta toss their way. Not knowing this would happen, my saber popped in front of like 50 new players when I threw it.


So my question is does visibility occur when anything having to do with jedi happens or just if the action/skill is directly related to jedi? Thanks in advance!

Hmmm, nobody knows for sure (because we cant see if something causes vis) but the rule is: If it costs force you get vis.


And equiping/unequiping your saber (and maybe robe) will cause vis.


As I said: no proof for that though...



I think you should be fine.

How about if you have force speed on and have no saber or robes on.....or force infusion non-battle but passive force powers....you do not start them in front of the npc however you finsihed battling and drive to the next mission with no saber or no robes but you have force infusion on or force speed and you walk by them?


Also if you are cloaked and walk by an NPC does that give you Visibility?


I hope I made my self clear.
