Defensive Force Powers .. Help!!

[Guest huaxtec]

Hey you all .. I have been playing this game ever since it has come out and I STILL havn't been able to figure out what most of the characters defensive force powers are suppose to be doing. The only one I have actually seen work is qui gon's which heals himself. Can someone list out the Jedi and what their defensive force powers do for me? LucasArts seemed to have neglected to include that in the manual.... Thanks in advance!!!

Q: What do the special defensive powers (L2 + C) of the Jedi do?

A: These powers, acquired for maxing out Tatooine, are as follows:

 

1. For Obi-Wan, Maul, and Plo:

 

A defensive bubble is created around you. It damages enemies that touch it. It deflects lasers back at the shooter. With this bubble on, cannon fire cannot hurt you. Attacks on it DO NOT recharge your health. Tanks cannot be destroyed with it. Using the bubble uses up your blue bar quickly. The only difference between these three characters' bubbles is the animation and color of the bubbles.

 

2. For Mace:

 

A defensive bubble is created around you. It also kills enemies that touch you, but it DOESN’T deflect lasers back at the shooter. Oddly, taking cannon fire with the bubble on will not help to repair your health meter. Tanks CAN be destroyed with it (with difficulty; better to use L2 + X). If you're taking damage, it will recharge your health bar, particularly if you're getting HEAVILY attacked (such as by Maul or the droidekas). It uses up your blue bar comparatively slowly. [thanks to Trexneus and Rschlott for setting me straight here]

 

3. For Qui-Gon:

 

L2 + C repairs some of his health meter. This process will be interrupted if you get blasted in the middle of it.

 

4. For Adi:

 

She goes temporarily "invisible;" enemies cannot see her during this time, but they WILL fight back if you attack them. She is NOT impervious to attack when this invisibility thing is on. Some monsters are not fooled by this at all, though.

 

Adi does have a protective bubble which damages monsters she touches with it. She can run around with it on. It does not repair her health meter, and cannon fire cannot hurt her when it's on. It also deflects lasers back at the shooter. She can even destroy tanks with it, if she hops on them when it's on. It is not considered her "defensive force power," though, just her "special weapon," L2 + S.

 

5. For Amidala and Panaka:

 

L2 + C does nothing whatsoever, at any time.

 

For all of these powers, you must press (AND HOLD!) L2 + C, and you have to have attained the third bonus on Tatooine for it to work.

 

NOTE: If you have "ultimate saber" on, contact with this bubble should kill any monster (save boss-monsters and droidekas) in one hit.
