Tinny Posted August 22, 2003 Share Posted August 22, 2003 man, i like how the balanced out the 2 dark force powers. now lightning takes both health and mana, while drain u have to be next to the person and it takes their health to restore urs. it will balance out the duels now. did anyone notice the pic with the lightning, the dude had 2 arms outstretched and both were spewing out lightning like when palpatine did it to luke.

Perhaps you misunderstood Lightning - it acts like in JKII: it drains your force power while causing health damage to your enemy. The picture is very cool ... I also like how grip now feeds you the health you take from your opponent. Mike [super Mod's Note: Please Edit posts, not excessive posting] Originally posted by StormHammer Yep...I already spotted that. In fact, you can now find a lot of these details already updated in the JA FAQ at the top of the forum. Damn, I'm fast. [/Quote] That will be great for the people who read the FAQ before posting questions ... both of them Thanks for the update StormHammer!

Mike Hey..no problem. As I said before, if anyone has any more tidbits of info they'd like to see in the FAQ, just send me a PM. And yeah...that new Drain just looks wicked cool.

Oops ... my mistake - actually an issue with proper updating of the text when I click on them ... I clicked Grip, the heading changed but the text stayed as Drain ... sorry for my stupidity I just tried on two different computers (Mac OS X and WinXP, I'm on a Win2k right now) and they all do the same - it is related to Grip. Site bug ... but I still apologize for my stupidity Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That wasn't how I read it on the official site. But when I play dark Jedi my 3rd or 4th time through I'll see it up close ... Thanks for clue-ing me in. [edit] Originally posted by Emon Actually, no.

Tinny Posted August 22, 2003 Share Posted August 22, 2003 straight from the site about lightning Allows the player to hurl a devastating electrical attack against foes. When a foe is targeted by this power, it locks on and continues to drain the enemy and consume the attacker's Force Pool. This continues until the enemy perishes, goes out of range, or the player's Force Pool is depleted. the enemy can only perish when his hp is being drained, and since its consuming the force pool the mana is being drained as well [super Mods Note: Please Edit posts instead of excessive posting] my mistake, it said attackers force pool not the targets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kurgan Posted August 23, 2003 Share Posted August 23, 2003 *cough* Anyway... Enough time has passed that it seems they don't plan to "show" what the neutral force powers look like on the site, except for Sense. All we get for Mind Trick, Push, Pull, Jump and Speed is a blue flash and the text describing it, unlike the other powers. Do they want it to be a surprise? Or maybe they just haven't worked the bugs out yet... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ImmolatedYoda Posted August 23, 2003 Share Posted August 23, 2003 Kurgan, does it really matter what the neutral powers look like? i cant imagine theyll look too different from JO. even if they do...theyre just push, pull, etc.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SettingShadow Posted August 23, 2003 Share Posted August 23, 2003 Anyone noticed that they say on the site that Mind Trick is a neutral force power? "The Force can exert a powerful influence over the weak minded. A Jedi Mind Trick can be used to outwit opponents in verbal negotiations or to make them see or hear things that aren't there. Mind Trick is a useful, neutral Force power that is often used in Jedi stealth operations where the goal is to avoid detection and confrontation with the enemy." In JO it was a Light Power (at least in Multiplayer.. maybe it's just neutral for SP?). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mariners2001 Posted August 23, 2003 Share Posted August 23, 2003 Originally posted by SettingShadow Anyone noticed that they say on the site that Mind Trick is a neutral force power? Yeah well it actually does make more sense as a neutral power. It has dark effects (manipulating the mind) and light effects (progressing without harm), but it is basically just for a distraction. Seems to make sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emon Posted August 23, 2003 Share Posted August 23, 2003 All are ultimately neutral, because it depends on how you use it. However, they are categorized by their common usage and purposes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy867 Posted August 23, 2003 Share Posted August 23, 2003 Yea, because if you think about it, Luke Skywalker used grip himself in Return of the Jedi, and look at how Obi-wan and Luke and other Jedi used mind trick to manipulate the minds of others. (weak-minded have you, but still a mind) (A mind is a precious thing to waste... haha) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SettingShadow Posted August 23, 2003 Share Posted August 23, 2003 Yeah, I agree, it does make more sense as a neutral power. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
