Only when you first start it up. After it's running you are free and clear of vis if something/someone comes in to range.

Yes, its a force power that continually uses the force (ticks x amount of force every now and then) so jumping on a speeder with fr active and dashing through the MO would generate a shedload of it.

i dont know where you saw that but my force run only use force for the initial. But in any case , vis is raised by any action that will use force , That includes tunning pearls which alot of people forget. And i think only the initial on FR will raise vis if you have people within 32m. Anyways I dont know which server your from but on my i dont get hunted and im all over the board BH's die alot.

Stand in your house with nothing active apart from whichever FR you have and watch CTRL+C.. every several seconds it ticks.. for FR1 it ticks for 5 force which is barely noticable but it does tick and each time it does you generate vis if anyone ungrouped is near you.

my force run 2 tics -5 force every couple of minutes, so it does use force throughout but very small ammounts. so i would say yes it does give vis.

ive used it a ton of times and never saw any bh's . and i mean i went to Dant MO which is populated alot on flurry , anyways if it does raise vis I would have fought several bh's while grinding , i fully grinded at least 2 jedi and ive been on force run everytime i went to get buffs and others , i believe i was hunted 3 times during the entire period. I think only the initial raise vis , even if the definition would say its using FR period.

This is true. They made it so it ticks -5 every few seconds ... so you get Visibility. That is why they havea tiny force cost on the regular saber hit as well. When there used to be no FC on the regular saber hit people were getting around the visibility using a default attack pre-CU.

You're probably just lucky (or unlucky depending upon how you look at it )then...strange as it sounds. I know a few Jedi who are "perma-termed", yet they never see a BH. Yet, I know other Jedi that are discreet with their sabers (relatively speaking)and get BH visits constantly.


Not being hunted by a BH is very plausible now since missions are totally random.


And everything I have ever heard/read leads me to believe that pretty much EVERYTHING (in terms of abilities)a Jedi does will generate some amount of visibility.I think that it used to be that the default attack (pre-CU) was the only action you could perform to not get visibility. The default attack uses Force now, so I'm pretty sure it gets you on the terms. Force Run does drain force, albeit slowly, so logic would say it generates vis.


Seriously, you're probably just lucky in not getting your mission pulled...of course, I could be wrong. /shrug
