Thread: DO FS skills help you when you are a Jedi??

I would also want the healing FS skills if they help me as a Jedi because I know the value of being able to heal yourself, but as a grinder in a group I don't place as much value on being able to heal myself. I either don't get attacked that much since I am a ranged fighter or there is usually some Doc, Combat Medic, or Jedi Healer in the group.Also what's the value in Survival, Luck, and Persuasion FS skills? And again do they have any particular value to Jedi?I guess what I am asking is, "Are there any Jedi out there that if you had it to do it again, would you get different FS skills and why?"
With Melee Speed and Melee Accuracy you increase your speed and accuracy of your saber. And with Melee Defence and Ranged defence you increase your defences. If you are force user, you can also ranged speed and ranged accuracy, which will help you with for example force lightning.
So yes, it helps.
except randed defense doesnt work with a LS equipped...

they help but nothing that couldnt be balanced with a good ca.
no where near the cost of loosing 24 valuable skill points it took to get them...if they can make pilots and politicians zero skill points to attain boxes, they can do that with force village boxes.

Just a note here. As of right now it has been proven that you dont use both melee and ranged defense. You will use the defense associated with what type of weapon you are holding. Example: Wielding a saber (melee weapon) means you will use only your melee defense no matter what type of damage you are taking. If you are holding a ranged weapon the opposite is true, you would use your ranged defense no matter what type of weapon you are being hit by.
This will probably be fixed so dont just drop ranged defense but, if you want to hold a lightsaber, as of right now the ranged defense will do nothing for you.
