i get a glowstick and feel like a jedi now and then but do hardly any dmg and constantly get nerfed
THe way to get jedi is retarded. Im not a jedi yet because i dont have 1252345235 hours to grind. They need to make getting there more fun....cough cough rp. Then even if it takes a year to get jedii can have fun along the way.
1.) We are little too weak compared to the BHs who have the suprise attack.
2.) The force drain lately have been insane. I run out of Force after a 10 minute fight with a BH... No way you can call this balanced
3.) No Pearl Drops of Premium/Flawless quality. So theres no way we can get pearls that will give us weapons of equal quality
4.) BHs have Armour slice, Weapons Slice, Krayt Enahnched weapons, Surpise attack. And No slow regen cost on any action they got.
Jedi have Force, action and mindcost added to weapon and even health cost added to some jedi specials. While BHs only have action on weapon.
5.) BHs also have the chance of getting both a Doc buff and soon a ranger buff, while the jedi have to get a buff every 40 minutes just to be on equal line... Unfair!
We are not stronger then other professions. Thats ok, if we are not forced into PvP, as with BHs. And if we are supposed to be 1.5 times stronger only as a Knight, SOE cant balance us before we have the posibillity of getting knighthood.
Much work remains really on the Jedi. The only reason it gets as high as 5 is because i love being a dark jedi. I always loved Star Wars. But I have to say that the Jedi in SWG is a joke. Remove Forced PvP if you want us this balanced! Thats the only solution.
The Game do have potential tho

6/10
Id say most of being Jedi is up to the player...
Id say sabers suck for post CU jedi and that needs to fixed, I don't have this problem but Im tired of my poor brethern being underpowered forcable do to code in game not letting drops.
Id say the new FRS , if sony has half a mind.. will have nothing to do with GCW at all and use a teir /quest format to actually have Jedi content which we have none at all in the game now.
Id say Dark Jedi should be able to aggro anyone opening them up to attack from all light side Jedi.
Id say I don't remeber a point in the movies where a BH hunted a Jedi ever... (note I say movies not books so don't flame me there)
Id say if Sony want to keep its vet players and Jedi they better act soon... and the robes from mustafar better look cool and have some kind of "useful" mod
Ill stop there before i get myself in too much more trouble 
4/10
Unlocked jedi in march '04 and ive seen it go through many changes for good and bad. But as it currently stands, jedi simply isnt the fun it used to be and has very limited roles ... main role as content for bounty hunters using the profession as a tool to grief.
1) all other combat professions have the opportunity to have better armor than the best jedi armor in game.
2) 4000 cm has better healing than 99% of jedi healing in the game. The only jedi healing that can outclass 4000 cm is master healer. But picking up master healer typically means minimal defenses and makes it so the option is suicide to drop defense for healing on that level.
3) Jedi have weapons that generally took months and millions of credits to make near pvp quality and are bio-linked to that jedi alone. While any other combat profession can purchase for a few thousand credits weapons vastly superior to that of 90% of jedi.
4) Few (and every patch fewer) skill are left that set jedi apart from the other classes. And half the time those skills arent working as intended. Avoid incap, improved force run or higher, self resandcloak are the only skills i can think of atm that jedi can truly enjoy and that seperate jedi from other professions mastered easily in a day.
5) Forced pvp while being subpar in so many ways to a class thats allowed first strike against jedi.
6) Being 'triple taxed' for all specialsattack related and over taxed on healing when its costsjedi action, mind and force for an attack when it only costs action by nonjedi (which quickly regens) or mind (in the case of cm debuffing).
7) If jedi want 'state healing' it costs mind, force and skill points because jedi need to acquire the healing to do so while combat professions have those state line healing in their respective combat lines and it cost non jedi action only.
It surprises me that with the current condition of jedi that nearly every jedi to non jedi confrontation isnt ended with a deathblow on the jedi. But it guess it's true that jedi are good because of the players, not the skills.
Also, if lightsaber is a melee weapon then why cant jedi use other melee weapons besides a lightsaber and enjoy that use with'lightsaber' specials? Any other profession can do it, why cant jedi? If it was allowed, I guarantee jedi would hang up their sabers for superior weapons ... most of the time.

This is exactly how I feel.
What a mess. Two years after release and we are nerfed into just another class.
Why dosent the dev team realise the Jedi should be above the other clases in power the hard part was in getting the quests - professions- and grinding the exp.
Example a tka sword fencer makes a better tank ! then a ms md.
A MR makes a better ranged fighter ! then a me mp.
A MDoc heals and buffs better then a MFH.
90 % of the jedi I know spend more time playing their alt because its better over and they are not forced to pvp and fight off bh at any time.
This is a game this is not swg the the movie but really bh only hunted jedi in the movies not the sith 
only jedi hunted the sith.
To be honest Id love to be able to play the game with my jedi as a pve only class, group with my friends and relax like I do on my alt. Way to much cussing and fussing in pvp and imature egos with the bh as a whole.
Worse the dev team seams to think its ok to keep nerfing us over and over years after release while we yet had hundereds of knows issue bugs that need to be fixed.
My question to the dev team is why would we want to play our jedi charcters ? in the current stat of the game ? Woo prety colors ! lol and thats about it to be honest. We really need some kinda non pvp path for jedi that could care less about being forced to pvp and pvp bounty hunters etc.
Even those who love to pvp and fubared with the ranking system in place being broken.
Jedi Rating 4 out of 10 all it really has is some nice spell effects for graphics.
