for all us pre cu jedi, we have been dealt the ultimate kick in the balls. hey torres why wont you for once show us the data that supports this completely idiotic move of yours. you have screwed up this game so bad and now you are pretty much throwing up your hands and saying now that anyone can be a jedi. you know there is no other way you could kill all our hard work and effort over the last few years any quicker than giving the opertunity we worked so hard for to others who can grind out a cl 80 in a day. thanks julio, thanks for the biggest and rudest thing you could to the guys who supported you everyday for 2 years plus.

I do agree with this, but I believe they should be better in PvP if it requires 1 year to obtain.

jedi players are being unfairly targeted and i am sure j torres is saying,,i bet this shuts them up and shows them who the boss is. I cant wait for the lawsuits for the underhanded practices soe is going through come to the light.

I wonder when SOE will start charging extra monthly service to upgrade your Jedi to be more powerful? Like $15, you get to be pwn by other professions, $25 you get to be CL100 : (


I hate to see it, but I hope thats NOT what they will do in future.

if they did that all of the 9 year old console kids they are gearing this game towards would stay very long






cause we all know this system and pre-cu takes an iq of 130+ *yawn*.



It's a video game lol, a 4 year old could learn how to play it well.

sorry, I am getting tired of seeing this. Jedi is a starting profession. Jedi is equal now. Deal with it, and remember the good times when you were an Alpha class, for they are gone.







I don't know whether to be offended because you're rewriting the bible in relation to star wars, or laugh because it's such a funny comparison




I know what you mean, but the comparison is remarkabley similar, isnt it.

i think in the long run this will actually be good. right now theres so many jedi because most people feel they have to be jedi to compete with other jedi. with jedi being a normal profession, the only people playing jedi will be the ones who really want to be a jedi. like pre cu...people werent rifle/swords because they wanted to be that profession..it was popular because it was overpowered, or at least perceived as over powered. now jedi is just a profession, which will thin out some people who are in it just because. or at least it seems that way

In the SWU, Jedi is a special character. It should be made easier (no grinding) to get and given to players who stick with the game as a reward, if they choose to go down this path.

I. Introducing 9 New Iconic Professions – Live the Saga!


Each profession is based on several of the most popular Star Wars characters, giving players the opportunity to follow in the footsteps of their favorite Star Wars heroes… or villains. Developing a character in the chosen profession is still based on story-driven adventuring, questing, and acquiring new skills.


Jedi = Luke Skywalker

Jedi are Force Sensitive beings that can use their Force powers to over-come and control their enemies and can master the art of fighting with a lightsaber. Force Sensitive individuals feel a connection to the energy that surrounds all living things and binds the galaxy together.


General Skills:



• Lightsaber Combat


• Force Powers


• Meditation



Special:


• Block Blaster Bolts – Block Blaster bolts using a Force powered lightsaber.


• Force Lightning – Call down the Force power of lightning to weaken your opponent's strength during battle.




FAQ: (Jedi Related)


Can anyone become a Jedi?



Yes, anyone can follow the path of the Jedi but like all professions mastery will require time and experience. The new Jedi profession will be equal in combat effectiveness with the other professions. It will still however deliver on the promise of the Star Wars Jedi mystique and will allow players to “live” as Jedi in the world of Star Wars Galaxies.



What's happening to my Jedi character?


Jedi will be able to choose any of the nine iconic new professions, including the Jedi profession. Regardless of a veteran Jedi's (existing active Jedi characters prior to the introduction of the game enhancements) re-spec choice the character will gain items and abilities that will represent the original accomplishments achieved by that character. These include specifically, the ability to take on the transparent Blue form of an ascended Jedi, a special Robe that is endowed with protective properties, and an exclusive new lightsaber with a unique color that deals more damage. All of these new items are being given to existing Jedi characters in recognition for their past achievements.



Will crystals and pearls still be used in lightsabers?


Yes, you will still be able to use crystals and pearls to upgrade lightsabers.



Will I still have to go to the Force Sensitive Village to be Force Sensitive?



No. Being a Jedi character will no longer require you to complete the Force Sensitive Village series of quests. There will be quests and adventures created specifically for the Jedi path that you will need to pursue in order to progress on the Jedi path.



Do you still plan to have a Force Ranking System?


Not at this time.

Like I said, with no PvP Bounties, I think Jedi SHOULD NOT be more powerful than other players. Most Jedi can understand this.
