[QUOTE="ffanxii4ever, post: 4979326, member: 85809"] Right, I may not be JediJake, and I have my own questions, but at least I seem to have the basics worked out, so let's see if I can't help you out Starting with the class issue, the way that he seems to be doing it is cutting the Scout and the Jedi class, and heavily modifying the remaining three classes. You can still be a Jedi though, because he is giving you 2 feats and 2 talents at level 1 (Normally, you only get 1 feat and no talents at level 1). So one of your feats MUST be Force Training (you need this to get Force Powers), and one of your talents MUST be Force Sensitivity, which considering is not in the books and the similarity of the name, is probably just the Force Sensitive feat house-ruled into a talent. (Also, one of your trained skills MUST be Use the force, but don't worry about that right now) So you have to choose one of the modified three classes remaining, for mobility I would choose Noble or Scoundrel depending on your personal preference, you can look at the talents and starting feats and decide (Scoundrels can be trained in Acrobatics though, and Nobles can't). Also, if you want to use a Lightsaber, you'll need to swap a weapon proficiency feat for weapon proficiency(lightsabers). Regarding the fact that Miraluka get the Force Sensitive feat as a racial feat, and JediJake has made it into a talent, I don't know how he will rule that, but for know I'd imagine you would simply get an extra talent since you have it already If you want to focus on mobility and telekinesis powers, you will need a high DEX (for the mobility, it will help with your reflex and your acrobatics skill) as well as a high CHA for better Use the Force checks and more uses of Force powers (another house rule seems to be that you can use any combination of your force powers CHA mod +1 times per (I hope) encounter, sorta like how spontaneous casters work in D&D) and a decent WIS for more power choices (you do get a bonus in WIS from being a Miraluka, so don't worry too much about this stat) The Force Perception talent is on pg 101 of the Core Rulebook, under the Sense Talent Tree Since you aren't going to be weapon-focused, a lot of feats aren't going to be too useful, so I would focus on ones that either deal with the Force (Force Boon and Force Training are two big ones) and more defensively oriented feats, like Improved Defenses or Dodge. For your remaining talent(s) I would focus on the Force talents, mainly those in the Alter Talent Tree (all about Telekinesis) and as a secondary focus, those in the Control Talent Tree (which focus on more "caster" types of Jedi) As for what Powers, I'm sure you can make up your mind on those, and for skills, I'd imagine you can choose (Don't forget to train in Use the Force, espiecally since you ought to be able to get the skill focus feat for it for free as well) Another thing (other than how to rule the racial conditional bonus feat of Skill Focus(Use the Force) and whether or not you get Force Sensitive for free) that JediJake needs to respond about is how additional (more than 1) Force Training feats work. This is because normally you choose what force powers you have and how many times you have them when you take the feat; take the feat a second time and you get more powers to use, or more uses of the powers you already have. With the house-ruled Force power system (Force Training only dictates what powers you have to choose from, and you can use them CHA +1 times per (hopefully) encounter) I don't know if additional Force Training feats will simply give more choices, but no additional usages, if it will give both choices and usages, or if it will give additional usages, or if JediJake will simply add in a new feat for additional usages of force powers. Hope this all helps some (but JediJake does need to answer a few questions) [/QUOTE]
