Ok lets go back to ancient jedi history. Before jedis had lightsabers they was teras kasi's and they used their fists to fight their opponents with the power to (raise their abilities above the normal). And also in Episode one you can see qui-gon meditating while waiting to fight maul. It dosent break anytype of story line. It is jedi's real skill.

Well Jedi ARE the uber melee profession. I can't see how that can be a complaint.
As for their meditation, the devs actually got it right this time.TKM's meditation affects their natural energy and Jedi meditation affects their force energy, for once things are how they are supposed to be.

If live will be anything like Testcenter2 then TKA's will be the last worries for anyone. Jedi will openly duel and if you get involved you will be pawned severely. This game balance will reach an all new low when we have to compete for loot and all RP aspects of this game by a class that will soon outnumber the Fencers.

LetJedi have meditate. Who cares?Jedi meditate. Let them meditate. It's not like they're giving the ability to novice creature handlers. Nobody is taking the ability away from us, and that's all that matters.
WhatJedi do doesn't effect what I do. I have no desire to be or have any association with the Jedi. As far as I'll ever see, their meditation doesn't exist.

That's pretty cool, how'd you find that out? I'm not big Star Wars books/comics. But if there's a book about that I'll read it. If you could private message me how you found that out I'd be mightly chuffed.

As I understood, TKA were created after a battle destroyed their planet.
A battle in wich Jedi were involved.
So, historicaly, it does make more sence to say that TKA took Meditation from Jedi. But using it in a different way.
As for Jedi having meditation, I personaly don't care.
I'm not a Jedi, and don't plan to be one.

Thats besides the point. Effect does not matter...
If they wanted to give Jedi a kind of meditation abillity, who not just give them a different animations instead of copying the TKA one and put lightning on it?
There are hundreds of other way for Jedis to meditate... They could have even fly a little off the ground like buda for all i care...
The meditate animation itself was the only uniqe thing that TKA had for their own proffesion alone...
Theres a reason why all proffesions cant use mando armor... Its the same - to make an skill/abillity/move/whatever uniqe for a certain type of class.
Why cant jedi just get another animations.. let their legs be crossed Like this: http://images.google.dk/images?q=meditate&ie=UTF-8&hl=da
Look... I don't care about Jedis 1337 d00dz skills, I just really liked the fact that Teras kasis, had a cool visual skills!
It might not mean anything to some of you - But I for one liked to use meditate instead of /sit, and I liked to use it and make people aware of that I was a teras kasi, giving the state i was sitting in!

If only the animation is the problem, then I agree with you.
Stop your copy-pasting you lazy devs.
(Kidding I do it all the time

Meditate might make the TKA unique, but the TKA doesn't need no force bar nor weapon to do damage. as long as that remains, TKA still has it's uniqueness in my books.
