powers: is it OP?

[Mumbo]

This game is basically rock paper scissors.

But powers is beatable without x4xx enh, though living through 3 powers jedi without it would be pretty hard.

I'm my phone right now, but I just want to clear something up. There's no nerfing of Powers, my changes so far actually increase Powers dps over time and are just very small tweaks. Mind Blast is switching over to Blast Damage and getting a damage buff, it will be less effective against non-Jedi (instead use lightning) but more effective against Jedi (who can heal mind).

The Force Defender change is SWGEmu code and something that needs to be included regardless.

If the Powers changes suck, I'll revert them or find something else (Mind Blast is still busted though).

Don't kill a whole jedi tree based on a powerful build, every build has a weakness, find the weakness and exploit it. #stopthenerfing

I agree

Powers, yes. Defender, no.

I need to pull and merge some more Emu code first. (I'd rather eat a tide pod, but I'm going to do that next week. The merge, not the tide pod)

So is the pvp command.

where did force lightning finish up ? I was doing some testing using lightning against non jedi and there doesn't seem to be any mitigant against it. Its so many more times more powerful against non jedi than a LS is. Wondering if this is its final state or there are further changes in the works ?
