Guest TarlSS Posted November 30, 2001 Share Posted November 30, 2001 After doing a bit of testing, I've discovered that Jedi Knights are NOT affected by Jedi Mind-Trick, while Jedi Masters are. This is definately the reason why fully upgraded Jedi Knights seem so weak, it's because they aren't affected by one of the best Jedi upgrades out there! The manual says Jedi Knights should be able to use Jedi Mind Trick, but apparently they dont. In simpler terms - After Researching Jedi Mind Trick, Jedi Knights don't get the stealth ability Fix this, please? PS- Sorry for making an entirely new thread, but I felt this bug was too important to be passed over in the Patch thread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
General Nilaar Posted November 30, 2001 Share Posted November 30, 2001 I doubt it's a bug, I think the manual just has a typo. It just seems like an ability that SHOULD only belong to masters. Both SW universe and balance wise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
safire Posted November 30, 2001 Share Posted November 30, 2001 I agree that it's not a bug. I always understood that Jedi Mind Trick is only for Jedi Masters. From a Star Wars universe perspective, it makes sense. From a game balance standpoint, it still makes sense. I think that's how Lucasarts meant it to be.

Young David Posted November 30, 2001 Share Posted November 30, 2001 It's a bug in the manuel They should release a readme with the manual bugs instead of fixing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Com Raven Posted November 30, 2001 Share Posted November 30, 2001 Sute, that's why Knights aren't upgraded to masters, so you have a fighting force and some sneaky guys ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emowilli Posted November 30, 2001 Share Posted November 30, 2001 The problem is all Jedi are very weak. I almost never see good players using them in games. They are very expensive to make and upgrade, yet very easily countered. I tried to win an 5 person FFA with mediocre players using only Jedi. I managed to take out 1 and damage another. Then it went downhill. My 50 fully upgraded Jedi masters were wiped out by a few bounty hunters and towers. Granted, this isn't how you are supposed to use them, but it illustrates how weak they are.

Guest TarlSS Posted December 1, 2001 Share Posted December 1, 2001 Are you sure it's not a bug? It seems like Jedi knights are terribly weak, even as a fighting force. 5 Knights will get cut down by a bunch of repeater troopers, where as they would fair pretty well against Heavy troopers...I think They were given the Jedi Mind Trick, so they'd at least remain half-decent counters to repeater troops. Jedi Knights simply get raped by everything at Tech 4, excepting Grenader troopers and Heavy mounteds... The Jedi Mind Trick would be a way to improve Jedi Knights and counter all the range upgrades units get. Jedi knights definately cannot do anything worth thier price past Tech 4. And yes, it does make sense in the bloody Star Wars Universe. Both Jedi Knights and Jedi Masters are capable of using such "persuasive" abilities. Read it in the books. Even Jedi Trainees are able to persuade weak minds through the Force. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clefo Posted December 1, 2001 Share Posted December 1, 2001 I believe that Gaber said that only Masters could cloak.. and if you can't believe him who can you believe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
