With Secrets of the Force going to the Test Center this week, there has certainly been a lot of discussion and new questions that many players would like answered, so we will turn to the Jedi Archives again this week for answers...
In the new system, will my Jedi be able to own a house?
Yes, a Jedi may own player structures.
Can Jedi buy and use faction pets?
A Force Sensitive, non-ranked Jedi characters may declare overt and participate in the Galactic Civil War and may use faction pets the same as any player. Ranked Jedi however will not be able to use Faction pets.
How many slots are available in each council?
There are 11 council ranks for the Light side and for the Dark side. Each rank will have a limited number of players that may earn these titles. In addition, there will be an unlimited amount of non-ranked or zero-level Force Ranked Jedi. This enables those players for PvP and the right to work their way up the Force Ranking ladder.
Is there a prerequisite for becoming part of the PvP ranking system? Can any Jedi join, or do you have to have mastered a complete tree first?
A Jedi Knight may advance into the Force Ranking system by advancing their Jedi character completely through the rank of Jedi Knight and complete the Jedi Knight trials. It should be mentioned that a character may not become a Jedi Knight until they have spent all of their skill points on Force Sensitive and Force Discipline skill boxes and then complete the Knight Trials. At this point, a player will make the transition into the Force Ranking system.
At what point will a character start to lose "Jedi XP" (acquire XP debt) when they die? While they are taking force sensitive skills, or not till they take their first Jedi skill? Or as soon as they become force sensitive?
Jedi will start to lose Jedi XP and accrue debt once they have become a Jedi Padawan.
What is the new lightsaber damage type?
A new damage type has been created called, "lightsaber damage". All armor is vulnerable to lightsabers, with the exception of Personal Shield Generators. However more to the issue, there really wasn't a new name that fit besides "lightsaber" at the moment. Some of the suggestions by players were "Glowing Beam of light", "lightsaber-energy", "Plasma", "Light" and "Extreme Heat". When considering all of these things, we stuck with a very basic title that everyone could relate to. "Lightsaber" damage is a literal description and describes it as well as we can without creating any form of confusion with existing energy weapons.
