If Jedi uses his force powers, then he incurs a TEF. The devs have said a jedi can handle 7-8 players no problem. So will he be the only player who have true PvP, just whip out the lightsaber and run through town killing people?

Yes 7-8 players, but they didnt say how skilled. Id say a Jedi vs a good Bounty hunter would be a good fight(Well a non-master Jedi at least)

having a TEF doesnt mean you can attack everyone it means you can be attacked by anyone.

you're right, just because you have a TEF doesn't mean u can kill everyone.....but anyone that attacks you, you can take 'em on

Ever think that once you reach a certain level of the Jedi skill tree, the only way to progress is by killing other Jedis?

Ever watch that TV series or the movie "Highlander"?

There can be only one!

Oops I forgot to mention that this is how I believe many Jedis will suffer their permadeath.

"Bwahahhahaha, I hit you first with force knockdown!"

I disagree.. bah... come on, there are so many other ways to die first I highly doubt that jedi will die mainly from PvP.. prehaps a year or so down the road when there are many more we may begin to see PvP jedi battles.. Prehaps you are talking about FS people getting PvPed, which will probably happen to many padawans who can't keep a secret. However, if someone is clever enough to be a Jedi I doubt they will expose themselves to that possibility, unless it is a prearranged meeting, or by completechance.. I know if I was able to train and become a Jedi Knight/Master,I would save my life for something far worthwhile and worth the screens.. ala assulting Darth himself on Naboo, but hey who knows.

This is false, and absolutely absurd to think something so gimped up.

The requirements would not require that you kill another jedi; its a game with consensual PvP, first off, and finding another one would be quite difficult, and then finding one with a TEF no less... and then at risk to you?

Also, what if you're one dedicated to following the Jedi order? Theres no intentions of murder and hatred, so that is just some off-the-wall logic.

Secondly, the devs said you'd advance up the ranks like any other, i.e. only apprenticeship and "Jedi Discipline" experience.


Hope this didnt seem like a flaming post, and instead was constructive criticism.

Actually, at one point, I suggested that it may be possible that they put one of the prerequisites for becomming a Jedi Master to have killed another Jedi of opposite standing. Light vs. Dark. Good vs. Evil....you know the drill. That would be one of the ultimate ways to limit Jedi Masters.

However, since even the highest skilled guys still block only 1 in 100 attacks, Jedi vs Jedi combat will probably end up as first hit kills, because of lightsabers. Yay...lots of fun I'm sure. Thanks SOE for making Jedi vs. Jedi combat S-U-C-K.

LOL. Please do not take my posts too seriously.

May the schwarz be with you.

in my opijnion people are jumping to conclusions. the actual quote says, "...where forced jedi PvP will gain you force RANKING and possibly a seat on the underground Light/Dark Jedi Council"

As I have said on another post

Leveling and Ranking are two different words, and it seems to me it's all speculation.. I will continue to believe it is until a developer dispells this somehow.

Clarification is needed.
