omg please make me wrong... I mean this is not even possible now right?


When did this one come up due to since bikes have been around and I have used them in my past it never showed up or gave me visibility.


What patch did this start with?

It's been a forum urban legend for a long time now. There's no proof this is actually the case.

Try cloaking near a vehicle. won't work


Try cloaking near an ungrouped droid won't work


Try cloaking near an npc won't work


Try cloaking near an ugrouped pc, won't work


You see a familiar pattern there? It's better to be safe than sorry put the bikes away while grinding.

Thats what I mean... I mean these legends are a bit harsh now... I would understand a droid more so then a a freaking CuPa -- I mean really...


Or better yet my "Short Bus" 7 passenger speedster....lol

When cloaked does your force drain while near any of the above (Just a side note). Im sure that has something to do with it.

Now my only comment to this would be the notes from the last time the "Devs" told us what gives visibility.. and we had vehicles in the game then... and they clearly never mentioned them.


Not that one thing is exactly spelled out in english from them its all "devspeak" which those that have been here at least one year know that means almost the same as me saying the sky is blue but with a shade of purple.

Yes it does there bossman, and it's my contention that if it drains my force while cloaked it also causes visibility while swinging a saber around.....................
