Well , they have not got their force powers back , in fact they are now not even using TKA moves , just seem to auto attack unarmed. I did see one rancor tamer using a VL today but that was it.

Well we all know the NS are supposed to be a clan of evil Force Users, so maybe they decided to do what the sharks from "Finding Nemo" did and stopped using their Force Powers in an effort to renounce the darkness in their souls...

I can confirm what chindi said. I fought nightsisters for 3 hours on Kauri last night and every protector, spellweaver, and elder i fought used only auto-attack. But at least the armor hole does seem to be fixed.

Actually with regards to that , can anyone recommend SW books or something that feature Dathomir? I would love to find out more about my favourite planet. Thanks.

I've read tons of Star Wars books...from the Shadows of the Empire to The Crystal Shard (TERRIBLE book). I don't remember anything that specifically focuses on Dath. It has been a few years since I read the last one though.

I found a link that might be helpful:


http://www.starwarsgalaxiesonline.com/content/locations-dathomir.php


The following is a "cut & paste" of the text at that link. Note the highlighted books. I have read all of those books, but don't really remember too many specifics about Dath. Hope this helps ya.







SWG Star Wars Galaxies Dathomir
Dathomir is a low-gravity world located in the Quelii sector. The planet is inhabited by the Witches of Dathomir, a group of Force-sensitive women who ride fearsome rancors. These "witches" live in different clans that include a group of darksiders calling itself the Nightsisters. The 'Singing Mountain Clan' and the 'Nightsisters' are at odds with one another - and with visitors who fail to show the proper respect. Visitors can align themselves with either side and benefit from trade with these powerful indigenous creatures. Dathomir can only be accessed by special charter transports operated by skilled pilots. Its terrain is highly dangerous. Besides rancors, the witches are a constant threat on Dathomir. Dathomir has not appeared in any of the films, but is an important part of the Star Wars Expanded Universe. It appears in such books as The Courtship of Princess Leia, Darksaber, Star by Star, and Children of the Jedi. Additional information on the planet can be found in reference sources including The Star Wars Encyclopedia. The Essential Guide to Planets and Moons, and LucasArts Entertainment's Behind the Magic. Infinity's End, a story-arc within Dark Horse's ongoing Star Wars comic book series also takes place on Dathomir.

Can't remember the title of the book "the courting of princess leia" or something like that. The jist of the story is Han Solo has some competition for Leia's affections so decides to do something impresive for her, winning the rights to a planet in a game of Sabbacc. He kidnaps her and takes here to the planet,turns out to be Dathomir,bad things happen, Luke turns up, big fights, good guys win.


The book goes into some extra detail here and there, but I've pretty much covered it.
