Jedi Revealed!! The one we've all been waiting for, finally the 5th edition Jedi!! Please let me know what you think. Level Proficiency Bonus Class Features Unarmored Movement 1 +2 Force Sensitive, Jedi Padawan — 2 +2 Fighting Style, Unarmored...

Sorry for the long radio silence. I've finished designing classes now. I stuck with the basics like Jedi, Soldier, Scout, and Scoundrel, but added in a few new ones like Socialite (these are your super social dudes like celebrities/nobles/crime lords), Tech Specialist (your engineer/tech based...

Happy anniversary!! Hello all! So exactly one year ago today, I sat down in my room after a particularly exhausting day. I had just been laid off my previous job (gotta love outsourcing :P) and had spent the day out job-hunting. I remember going home and watching a trailer on Facebook for The...

Alrighty everyone, first off let me say that I absolutely LOVE the feedback I'm getting here. I value and appreciate everyone's input and opinions. I definitely did not envision this to be a one-man project but a labor of love with support from the SWSE community. Now, let's really delve into...

Thanks for the feedback, much appreciated! Regarding Hit Points, you are right that in Saga starting HP was high, this was because your basic Storm Trooper armed with a blaster rifle could unload an AoE auto fire attack that did (IIRC) 4d8 damage or something of the like. I remember reading an...

One thing I've noticed about 5E is that prestige classes tend to be incorporated into the archetype path that you choose, usually around 6th-11th level. So the whole "Jedi Healer" prestige class and "Jedi Battlemaster" concepts are things that I've worked into the base class. To answer your...

For all that are still interested, I just posted a big update to the SW:5E project I'm working on, take a look if you're still interested. This will probably be the last time I post here, as I'm updating too many threads at once. May the Force be with you...

***BIG UPDATE*** Hello all, happy Star Wars day!! Hope you all loved the new movie as much as I did :cool:. Now, on to business. So I failed in my goal to have a starter version of my Star Wars RPG project ready in time for the movie, sadly. I've been working very very hard at it though, and...

So just wanted to check in with everyone, the project is still alive and well lol. Sorry for the long silence, I've been busy looking for a new job (got laid off my previous job a couple months ago, the company decided to outsource to another foreign country /sigh) and all the chaos that comes...

Thanks for your input!!

I appreciate everyone's feedback. I'm working on implementing them and making adjustments as we speak. I'll check back soon, thanks for the suggestions!

I used to be a Jedi adventurer, but then I took an arrow to the knee xD Okay I'm sorry. I know, 2011 just called and they want their meme back lol. In all seriousness, a Jedi IS an adventurer. I quote directly from Star Wars Saga Core rulebook: "A Jedi typically starts out as a Padawan...

I guess I'm so used to playing the MMORPG as well as KOTOR 1 & 2 that I've forgotten that those distinctions were made up specifically for the video games and nothing more lol. Having said that, they are part of official Star Wars canon. I think it probably would be simpler to just dismiss them...

Sorry to hijack this thread, I have an important question and need everyone's input and opinions. Do you guys think that Jedi should be one class, or broken down into two? Let me explain further. A.) Jedi is not one but two classes, the Jedi Consular and the Jedi Knight (just like in the...

That's an interesting idea, using the fighter superiority dice. I'll have to play around w/ that idea and see what comes of it. Now, I have another question for you and anyone else reading this forum. Regarding the Jedi class, I need everyone's opinion. Should I keep the Jedi as one class or...

I agree, characters in Star Wars tend not to wear a lot of armor. The whole idea behind SWSE was to discourage you from wearing armor. I think that wearing armor will come in handy in certain scenarios (such as armor w/ built-in life support and you're in space) but that should be the exception...

You are correct, in Star Wars Saga there wasn't AC, your reflex defense was both your AC and your saving throw against any effect that required you to nimbly dodge out of the way. And yes, reflex defense was calculated either by the armor you wore or your character level. As for AC in my...

Same as 5th edition. There's Defense (armor class) then your other saving throws like normal. If you get hit with a Force power then you make a saving throw against a DC of 8 + proficiency bonus + ability modifier etc. Wearing armor will boost your defense however some classes like Jedi won't...

Good question. Honestly, I don't think it'll be directly compatible however I expect that a decent GM could make it work. Allow me to elaborate. D&D is based on the assumption that there is magic in the world. Your characters have access to magic spells and there are plenty of magic items to...

Hey thanks for the feedback! I am completely over-hauling the class design in Saga edition. The talent system is being thrown out and feats will be optional, just like they are in D&D 5th edition. Instead, each class will have access to certain key abilities and later will be granted options for...
