No what you said was rubbish. It is still rubbish and will always be rubbish.





errr ok


55 regen every 10 secs - 5 regen every 10 secs for force run = 50 regen every 10 secs while force run is in effect


simple math














QFE. This guy is right. Take a look at your force pool while you have it on, costs you about 5 force every 10 secs or so.

So to the guy above who said he's talking rubbish, think before you speak.






Costing force is not affecting regen.






Are you just trying to be difficult? He isn't saying it does affect regen he is saying the net effect is the same. Mathmatically he would be correct I'm not sure what the issue is.




Doc,


One critical thing is terminology.


We cannot correctly bring issues forward if we are not on the same page. Regen is the amount of regeneration every 10 seconds. Cost is the reduction in the current force pool. In the case of FR1 the COST is only accrued if moving with it turned on. By making the correlation that it affects regen implies just that, your regeneration is affected even while not moving.


Now if we have force regen issues or force cost issues how can we correctly reflect problems to the devs unless we use the same terminology. They true fact is Force Run does not affect force regen. It has a Force Cost. Or are you prepared to say Stasis, saber moves, etc all effect force regen.









The difference is that FR1 is a toggle and while it is on everytime you move you have the cost. It is an ongoing cost. If the original poster had said it DID affect regen I would agree it was incorrect. He didn't. He said it had the same effect which is basically true. IN any event someone could have said "This isn't entirely accurate lets be clear how it works." Just a flame "this is rubbish" doesn't get it if you are going for civilized discussion.




stand still and the 5 every 10 secs is still there


sit down and the 5 every 10 secs is still there


while the buff is on it cost 5 force every 10 secs

What does FR1 do? I heard it affects force regen.





take off 5 from your force regen


so say your regen is 55 with FR1 on its 50









What a load of rubbish.





lol FR1 takes 5 force every 10 secs


so in effect it takes your regen down 5 points


think before you speak





THink before you type, the 5 every 10 seconds os a cost while moving with it. If you stand still there is no cost with it engaged


So therefore NO it does not remove from your force regen. To correlate that cost removes regen is absurd.









wrong


im sitting down right now in game and every 10 secs my foce bar will drop by 5 and then come back


please think before YOU type thank you
