[QUOTE="Asmor, post: 3649430, member: 1154"] Not neccessarily. True, given a Jedi and a smuggler with equal amounts of experience in their chosen professions, the jedi's probably a lot more powerful, influential, and all around better. However, a level 1 Jedi is a brand-spanking-new padawan, admittedly with a lot of training but little to no real experience, while a level 1 scoundrel's probably been, uhh, "scoundreling" out in the wild for years if not decades. A level 10 Jedi's an experienced and powerful knight, though he still has lots of room to improve. A level 10 scoundrel's probably one of the best scoundrels ever to scoundrel a scoundrel...thing. A level 20 Jedi is basically a god. A level 20 scoundrel... Realistically probably doesn't exist. Actually, I'd say anyone without force probably shouldn't advance past level 12 or 13. If he did exist, he'd be the greatest crime lord ever to live, an emperor unto himself. He'd command not just armies of mooks, but entirely likely he'd be able to command any given planet's army. He has at his disposal cadres of the greatest bounty hunters, smugglers, spies and assassins. And yet, this criminal kingpin, with all his resources, is merely the equal of some dude who's just spent his entire life living an ascetic lifestyle and meditating. So basically, my point is that Jedis in the movies and universe are superior to everyone else, but that doesn't mean that a game can't realistically balance Jedis with non-Jedis. Non-jedis of the same level as a jedi just have a lot more experience and resources than the equivelentally-powered Jedi. [/QUOTE]
