I've found the problem!!!


It's the new "Force Leak" ability given out at Novice Marksman that allowsanyoneto target a Jedi and create a micro tear in their Force reservoir -- thus leading to a slow drain of Force, whether the Jedi is fighting, sitting, eating, chatting, or logged out. Someone must be using "Force Leak" on you. Look for the debuff icon next to your name that looks like a little guy in a pajama top with an "I'm screwed!" look on his face.

This is balancing and working as intended. Breathing now costs Force.

From my tests with Xeovar I believe it may be something wrong with upkeep costs too. I usually run infusion macro, forcespeed macro, i have fr1 turned on and force armor. Sometimes cloak too. Before yesterday I had all those on and my regen managed to keep my force full all the time. However, yesterday i was loosing force all the time, just by standing there. The leak during combat was even worse. Oh, and I never wear jedi robes, so this is not an issue.




Me too, I can no longer leave these running without a big force drain, even just standing still. And I've done this long before I was a full template.

did any of you have force armor running? i noticed force armor now drains force based on the damage your taking, no attacks force hardly drains at all, 5 gurks attacking me drained my force bar faster then my health bar.





I never used force armor because of the high costs.

Im not sure about testing it for ya (cause Im extremely lazy) but I can say that Force Regen is bugged. I was killing 81 Dewbacks on Tat last night. I thought my force was draining too fast so I told myself "stop using so many specials." So I used the very first saber attack a jedi gets just to aid my group in killing the MOBS with plain old saber hit. Before the lair was finished (and mind you we are not spinning this is a very SLOW grind session, one at a time kills) I was down to 35% force power. Before this publish, I would have been at 95% or so at the rate we were going.

That said there is DEFINITELY something wrong with force regen. I always wear my robe because Im still a very new paddy.
OH!! I dont have force run of any type. Novice heal, Novice Def, LS 0022, Master Doc, CM 4001

Well I think my force is diminishing faster (andI use my robe when helping guildies grind because I am positive the regen helps).


WhatI did notice is that "improved spin attack" seemed to be firing -alot-.


What I mean is when put on "auto-attack" a yellow, then red box would flash round it. As if you were spamming it almost constantly with the mouse cursor. Something I'd not noticed before (it used to gain the yellow box, but never the red one, which before could only be gained by clicking on a speical box too much in the toolbar)


I am not positive but it felt like I was attacking with spin alot more too.


People say jedi modified speed does not work, that it uses base speed. Perhaps this has been fixed?


Attacking faster would drain force quickly, and make regen appear less.


My 2 cents.









I've noticed this as well. sometimes the timers on attacks would mess up and it would start firing off too fast. Usually on a lair i alternate imp spin and dervish but since pub 23 i've noticed that when imp spin starts to fire off too fast it is sometimes firing faster than my usual alternate attack was. for example: say i was getting 10 attacks in 10 seconds alternating imp spin and dervish, when imp spin (my auto attack) starts to run fast it is firing off at 12 attacks every 10 seconds.


Also worth mentioning when that starts to happen it runs through my action and force at a phenominal rate

I caught it in the act. Force regen is bugged, at least on mine. I had zero force drain, then tested my regen speed, my mods say it should be 44 per 10 seconds, mine was 20ish for a fact. Plus my force went DOWN then up then back down and finally up again with NOTHING WHATSOEVER on.

Force use and regen is bugged. And i was NOT wearing a robe.


***edit*** I cannot duplicate it again, might of been error, disregard unless somebody else catches it in act.

Now I cannot duplicate it, but me and a friend both saw it. I used force aura to drain, then timed the recharge over 10 second lapse. Going to keep messing with this, I feel it's close.

We definitely have a problem here. I run out fo force way to fast all of a sudden. Get Biacca on this PLEASE.



"Men have less hesitation about offending one who makes himself loved than one who makes himself feared, for love is held together by a chain of obligation which, because man is sadly wicked, is broken at every opportunity to serve their self-interest, but fear is maintained by a dread of punishment which never abandons you."
