PCs cannot use specials (force choke for example) when wielding ANYTHING but a saber (or nothing at all). NPCs CAN (NS Stalker with powerhammer does choking).
This calls for a fix, allowing PCs to use those offensive powers as without regard for any equiped weapon OR fix NPCs so they cant do the same.

If you find more similar examples, please let me know.

The NPCs are exploiters and need to be banned!
Seriously, they should have the same preferences as a PC when coming to attacks (specials), regeneration an such.

NPC's are using specials from every available profession...and for little-to-no action/mind cost...
SoE's moto must now be: If it's not broke, break it. If it's broken, break it some more.

I'd rather have this than the old "aura,headhit, bodyhit, headhit, bodyhit" way of killing them we have had since the CU. At least now they are tough for anybody to fight, not just non "full temp" jedi

Remind you, I don't mind that they have specials, but they have LESS limitations in using them.
- CL80 NPC has WAY over 3k health, PC around 3k (no buffs or other enhancements)
- NPC can use specials more often and with much less limitations and action/mind(/force?) cost then PCs
This is breaking for solo-ers.
Forced grouping for content.
Againt, it isn't balanced... CU failed...
Edited to add:
This is not just a JEDI thing... All combat professions will suffer from this. These are just some extreme examples.

I have no problem with NPC's using powers etc. BUT this patch stopped players using offensive jedi powers whilst holding a non-LS, yet brought in NPC's doing the exact same thing, as if to ram it down the throats of those of us who've wasted the past 3 months making a fun hybrid template (yep, I'm talking about me here!). And to also allow NPC's to use skills that would cost players 400+ skill points to obtain all the trees they'd need and at ZERO action and mind costs!! I have to say, **edit**!!!!!
