Also, the guy that lost 2000 Force for roughly two minutes of cloak is odd too, if you could test some of that for us with a clock and some numbers that would be great.

Tests around nobody and tests around people too, hehe.



I've already tested force cloak, it is draining alot more than it used to. I used to be able to keep it indefinite when standing in middle of nowhere. Last night, I ran out of force in a few minutes and decloaked while standing in middle of nowhere with absolutely nothing around me.

Yet another sign that our force pool is REALLY messed up somewhere.

I noticed this in a BH attack last night. At the beginning of the fight it was draining slowly, then I thought I saw about 20% just disappear all at once, which I could've been mistaken but that 20% was gone nevertheless. So I just stopped, as MDef, most know you can just sit there and lose no force, but I was still losing force, as if I were really trying to beat the BHer. I've kind been on and off the game for the last month, having grown a bit bored with it, they didn't give anyone profs a force drain ability did they? lol Who knows, prolly just our imagination.





I thought I had a bugged toon but I am faceing the same problem .. I am not even doing anything and the force drops 5% with force arora on and I am just standing there.. force leak is not a problem if your not on the terms but when you a mDef and Mls and with out cloaking . every force point counts. With BH's like Mittins out there .. we need as much force we can keep. : )


My problem is I should be not killed as a MLS MDef and some enhance .. regardless I love SW and the people I will hope to be a Knight one day..

The force regen sucks .. I see it crash in less then 15 mins with all my Def's on.. and then I have the Option to down a Holo .. but 15mins is a really short time for us that don't coward from a BH .. (none runner or cloakers)



help us Darth we need more force regen to sevre the dark side !!

i had a jedi mission last night, i caught him at pickets, apparently his force was at 20% he took a holocron, and i had him in a big healing loop but in less than 5 mins he was out of force n had to run off he was freaking out about it

I would personaly like to THANK "Akast," for thier possitive and constructive input to this subject matter.

As it is a prime example of what the forums are Meant for and all about. The forums are for EVERY one.

AKAST... The word TROLL, does NOT apply to YOU. ALARIA.


And on another Note, Tho it is Unlikely that it was YOU who hunted me, I have my self run off screaming about force bugs, and where the F$%ck, is my ham and F-pool going, in the last few days, from BH and more embarrassingly Jiuvey Kraytes that I never had problems with before. I look forward to the research conducted by my Fellow Jedi on this subject matter, and wish them coodos and good sabers for thier efforts in trying to solve a mystery which seems to be effecting us all on a proffound level. A mystery that the devs and Tiggs seem very Silent in commenting about.

I think i have the answer. Maybe imwrong but i think its FORCE RUN!!! Remember it was meant to drain force over time. I dunno if it was ever doing this. I didsome testing. I noticed my regen i was random yesterday. When i was tanking lairs for guildes i noticed no change in regen, but i dont have force run on. But when i hunt krayts i always have it on. While running around it gives time for em to spawn as a vehicles tend to go past too fast. I noticed i was burning a lil more force than normal and took me longer to regen. Then while running along i notice my force bar blip just a tad. I thought it was strange!! So I played around a bit and then finally turned off Force run and it stopped. Am i just stupid and never noticed it or have i discovered something?


FORCE

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


More testing required, but My own tests would seem to indicate this is Not isolated to Force run alone, but that drain and regen is effected if Any force power is currently IN effect at the time.

Do not write that in stone just Yet tho. More testing Required! ALARIA.



Hmm.. On further testing...

I have a macro, f-speed, that is timed at 721 seconds. ei: 12 minutes, to repeat. who doesnt these days.

But in the last few days since problems arose, it is no longer resetting the F-speed, it burns out.

Minutes later, I am about to start it manually, when it suddenly kicks in!

Like Timers are screwed Up.

Im thinking, Timers for every thing then? Or at least the systems way of interpreting timers on what you spend?

This is just an interresting hypathetical side note. And not tested efficiently. (Nore do I know How to Do so.)

Ok. did a little testig today and can say that every action and every aura seems to have the exact same cost/drain as it had previously.


The regen rate however seems to be a fixed rate and is not being effected by the robes +10 to regen. I dont know about you but +10 hurts to me. So although your aura's always did drain your force with proper regen its not so bad at all. I also tried clothing with +force regen attachments. however I am a wookiee jediee and have just a total of +2 (one from my hat and one from my belt) since thats all I can wear with robes. anyhow the +2 didnt seem to make a difference although I dont know how noticeable it would be anyhow.



just my 2 cents.



this needs to be fixed soon.
