These are just some of the questions that came to my mind:

1. In the new Jedi Skill Tree will there choices to make to define what kind of Jedi you are (Dark/Light) or will every Jedi have exactly the same skills and be cookie-cutter?

Skills are determined by quests/weapons/robes. It will be kinda cookie cutter, but you will also be different depending on specials you want to use. In any battle, you will not even be able to come close to using every special.

There are no Skill trees anymore. Remember back in Pre Patch 9 when Jedi all had the same skills, same thing but not quite as diverse via Bac

2. What will happen to our Bane's Heart and Sunrider's Destiny crystals? Can they still be used? Will they be more damaging than normal crystals or on par?

They can still be used and they will be converted to fit damage in the new system. How, I don't know exactly.

3. What kind of enhancements, if any, will these new robes/cloaks for Elder Jedi have?

One is a toggle for blue Glowy, others will add stat attributes if I understood Dallas correctly.

4. Again, since we will have a choice of a Dark or Light Jedi Robe/Cloak to choose from, will we be able to choose skills to fit our roleplaying style?

Kinda fits with my answer on question 1. You will be able to use specials that you like and can fill the role you like within the specials that are availible (no I don't have a list on me, sorry)

At a full template all Jedi will have the same skills. You can choose from there what you use via Bac

5. Will Ithorians and Wookiees be able to wear these new robes/cloaks? Yes, I believe so.(YES via Bac)

6. Will we be able to choose what type of hilt we want to use and style of LS fighting (1H, 2H, DB) and will there be new kinds implemented into the game?

LS Attacks are based on the different Iconic styles.

7. What is the benefit of being able to be a Blue Glowie except the so-called "coolness" factor of it? Are we still attackable?

Attackable, I am not sure. The coolness seems the only thing right now.

8. If we do not want to use a LS for combat and remainPowers-only,is that a viable choice?

Yes, you can use your powers specials (again I do not have a list) Also you can use a ranged or melee weapon.

9. Will Jedi still be in the GCW? Will the FRS ever come back? Will there be content putting the Dark and Light Jedi against each other?

FRS is gone for good. Yes you can participate in the GCW. Not sure about the Dark v Light Jedi.

10. Related to #9: What is to become of the Enclaves? Will they be tied into new content?

Not sure on this, sorry.

11. What end-game content are you thinking of? After we reach full-temp what are we to do? What goals should we have?

Not sure here either.

12. Will there be NEW Force Powers inplemented into the game? (Force Jump, Force Push, etc.) Which ones will be leaving the game?

The specials have been reworked, I do not have a list, sorry.

13. How much more damaging will these Elder Jedi sabers be over the standard LS? And do we need to keep this "special color" in order for them to be more powerful?

Again, I am not sure on conversion stuff. It was not final on how it would be handled.

14. Will there be quests given out by iconic figures in SWG depending on which side you're on? (Light side = Luke/Leia, Dark = Vader/Emperor)

Yes. And it is fun, even just from the begining. Make sure you have not turned off the opening credits thing in the options as well.

15. What will happen to our Health Buff Crystal and Mind Buff Crystal?

I don't have an answer here either.

16. Will CA's still be working?

Some, if not all, are supposed to be converted to the new system.

17. Will Holocrons still be functioning?

Not sure.

18. What is to happen to the Master Cloak quest reward from ToW? Is it still useable or will it be replaced by something to it's equal?

It is still useable, mods (was it?)will be changed to reflect the new system.

19. Will we be able to choose titles like we could pre-Pub 9 or will just be Jedi and Elder Jedi?

You will get to keep any titles you can currently use, new players will not be able to use those titles.

20 This is related to question 19. The new info says "Veterans will maintain the ability to display any title they have earned over their SWG career." My pre Pub 9 SWG career has titles like Lightsaber Duelist, Force Adept, etc., that are no longer in the game except as a title bug.Will I be able to display titles from mypre Pub 9 Jedi titles?

Not sure on this one.

21. I noticed player BHmissions are gone and Jedi is a starting prof. Will the timeline be changing to reflect this?

No. Also You will not start as a Jedi, you will start as a Force Sensitive and work up to Jedi.

22. Will pearls/crystal statsstillconstitute the bulk of our potential saber stats? Or will sabers all have base stats equivalent to other weapons, with pearls/sabers just offering minor enhancements or variety?

I believe crystals will be improtant to your sabers, as there will just be stat adjustments to the crystals.

23. Will we be able to personally select the color of our special reward crystal or is there one set color for it?

Not sure on reward stuff sorry.

24. Will Jedi who are already full template, or respeced be able to participate in the quests that might have led up to his/her profession for a chance at these "New special quest rewards"?

Not sure, I asked but never got a clear answer on it.

25. What will be the replacement for ADK's? Unused and/or already on items of value?

Don't know, still wondering myself.

26. I've heard rumor that the new reward robes will be choosable from the previous FRS system, is this true?

Not sure.

27. Why have Jedi been marginalized to the same combat effectiveness of any other profession?

My money is on balance and marketing, but not fact. Just speculation.

28. Will player bounties for the Bounty Hunter professions (i.e. jedi/smugglers) ever be put back into the game?

Don't know. Solutions were offered for RP'ers and PvP'ers who wanted this to stay. Just not sure if it will be implemented.

29. Are the abilities listed in the FAQ, for jedi and the other professions, the only available abilities for those classes, including special abilities... or are those just highlights?

All abilities have been changed to fit the current system. And Yes FR is still in game. I used it.

(According to Psychopyro80 it appears Force Run is still in -- keep you updated)

30. Will we still have a Force Bar?

I did not see one, I think it may have been removed, as it does not seem to fit in game anymore (as all specials use action or mind).

That's all I have for now. Let's hope for some answers!
