ok - 2 things
the nasty ones (like volley fire etc) require the SL to "paint" the target - and this wont work as the jedi isnt a valid target for the SL
the group wide ones are considered an assitive measure and dont break through the TEF - just like an area heal bacta spray does nothing to TEF'd players
I had a bounty hunter/squad leader come after me last week, he was grouped with his droid and kept volley fire on me so it definately works on Jedi.
one thing for him to use SL bonuses if he is one though... quite another if they're applied by a group member who's a SL. a BH/SL combo is fair enough, people choose their templates for the abilities it gives. The issue is if the BH can receive SL benefits from another group member while in combat with a Jedi.

yes a BH/SL template can use SL buffs specials etc - BUT a sl that just happens to be grouped woth a BH that has your mission cant do anything to help the BH

Well if it does work that way youl see this....You know how doctors have afk macros for buffs/wound healing? I bet there will be squad leaders right next to them now.
squad leader buffs work for around 40 seconds max - not an issue
ive tested them, they last a lot longer. Im talking 1/2 hour, and can be reapplied plus there are a few specials that a bh can pick up one tree in Sl and buff themselve *cough * crit shot bonus *cough* that is insane. I just hate that we (becasue of saber damage) have to try to stop good things happening to other proffessions, but they dont lose xp and gte harrassed in the same way.
Well with the SL changes we should be seeing a lot more SLs about and I'm sure the chances are, if you are grinding in a group, then an SL may be in it.
If a BH is grouped with an SL this is in now way exploiting, yet it will give him a large advantage. But think about it, which BH would sacrifice a full temp payout for a few extra buffs?
