Ulic Qel-Droma Posted February 5, 2003 Share Posted February 5, 2003 i didn't mean it like that but mabye both jedi and sith used force lightining at that time, remember at that time a double bladed lightsaber was rather comon but in the movies it's almost not used for a millenia. cause it was used to duel multiple enemies and as the sith were belived to be extinct they had no use for it. and do remember im only speculating here.

Burrie Posted February 5, 2003 Share Posted February 5, 2003 Ah, I see... indeed, mayhaps the Jedi didn't even realise that Force Lightning = evil, and only learned so later on... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leXX Posted February 5, 2003 Share Posted February 5, 2003 I've always just thought of lightning as another force power that the Jedi choose not to use. I'm sure Yoda could dish out lightning if he wanted to. Why the Jedi choose not to use it I don't know. Perhaps KOTOR will give us some answers! In fact, now I think about it, lightning is a very agressive force power and the Jedi we see in the movies only use the force for defensive purposes. Perhaps the use of aggresive force powers is the key to the decent of a lot of Jedi so the council rules that certain force powers are not to be used. Grip is another one, we have only ever seen Vader using it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burrie Posted February 5, 2003 Share Posted February 5, 2003 I think Yoda said it best... and I'll misquote him for you... A Jedi uses the Force for knowledge and defense, NEVER for attack... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Havoc Stryphe Posted February 5, 2003 Share Posted February 5, 2003 Originally posted by leXX Grip is another one, we have only ever seen Vader using it. Correction: In Episode VI: Return of the Jedi, we see Luke use force grip on the two Gammorean guards at Jabba' palace. I don't remember Luke being around Vader when Vader used force grip, so I don't know how Luke even stumbled unto that force power. Maybe he read about it Obi-wan's hut on Tantooine during the events of Shadows of the Empire(EU). Or maybe Yoda actually taught him to use it. However, it is unknown wether it is to show that Luke, unguided as he was, teetered perilously close to the dark side, or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leXX Posted February 5, 2003 Share Posted February 5, 2003 Oh yeah, I forgot about that. That actually reinforces what I just said because how would Luke know about it? Apart from the ways you suggest, it could be an 'instinct'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frosty_V2.1 Posted February 6, 2003 Share Posted February 6, 2003 Force grip is just using telekenesis to grip them around the neck rather than lifting an X-wing or somesuch. You could look at it from a number of ways but I always thought it was just the quickest and quietest way to get them out of the way. You can look at the lightning thing a few ways too, I don't see y a Jedi couldn't use that power in any given situation, although "a Jedi uses the Force for knowledge and...." "sometimes the best defense is offense" well imo, plus if u used it in a non-combat situation e.g. to fry some control panel to free ur friends how is that bad(then of course people argue that u use hatred to create the lightning etc....) In the game it would have to be more black and white about what I said but yea..maybe I have just seen too many ethical/philsophical debates about the force.

Thrift Posted February 6, 2003 Share Posted February 6, 2003 Errrrr maybe I wasn't paying enough attention, but wasn't Yoda using force lightning in AOTC?? I swear he was...He sent it straight back at Dooku... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ulic Qel-Droma Posted February 6, 2003 Share Posted February 6, 2003 yes that was a great scene, but i still think the duel of the fates in the phantom menace was bether. but nothing can overcome the vader vs luke fight in return of the jedi.

Burrie Posted February 6, 2003 Share Posted February 6, 2003 Agreed, 'tho the final saber fight is that good because of the history and the events that led to that point.

Ulic Qel-Droma Posted February 6, 2003 Share Posted February 6, 2003 hehe i think that one could get quite interesting hehe, but all together my fight will be bether with malak, hehehehehehehheheheheheheh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Com Raven Posted February 6, 2003 Share Posted February 6, 2003 Nah, I am pretty sure the end will be a fight against Malak... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burrie Posted February 6, 2003 Share Posted February 6, 2003 Even when you're playing a Dark Sider, Raven? In a way, I'd personally enjoy if you didn't have to fight Malak in the end, despite the whole "he-is-in-your-way-to-top" aspect. I personally hope to see that you can betray and defeat him close to the ending, and then take the Sith Army and start your final assault against those meddling Jedis... meeting some of your old friends amongst the way, and slicing them down, forever putting you on the Dark Side.

Taos Posted February 7, 2003 Share Posted February 7, 2003 Ok, I've merged a couple different threads together since they both talked about the same thing........I'm very tempted to put the "female pc's" thread also in this one as well. We will see about that one...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ulic Qel-Droma Posted February 7, 2003 Share Posted February 7, 2003 yes i like the idea of betraing malak at teh end and launch a grand assault on the jedi academy, that would be cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think you'll get to betray Malak cause I think even when you're evil you want to defeat him. I think either side of the force, dark or light, you'll have a reason for wanting to kill Malak. Whether it be for the good of the galaxy or evil revenge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
