Deflection redirect.
Just a simple suggestion, now when you are ignited and you are facing a player or NPC with a blaster of some sort I would say higher levels of saber defense could redirect the bolts back in that area. Higher levels being accurate like 4-5.

I agree, except that I think it should be for moderate levels, too. Level 2 defense should redirect fairly well, and level 3 should be very accurate. Padawans are trained in this skill from an early age. We've seen many examples of teenage soon-to-be-Jedi that are able to do this.

No kidding. I've always found the disparity between our Level 3 Defense and the standard SP Base one to be massive. A Jedi is supposed to be able to redirect blaster bolts easily as a default skill (at least with some training), so the fact that we're lucky to hit once in every 20-30 shots with pure deflection...

No, whatever happens on the client is purely visual and may not always reflect what's really going on server-side. Only the server decides how things (players, blaster bolts, whatever) move in the virtual world.Ametha Tasia wrote:Could it be because of the animation glitch on client-side?
Now, I'm not sure I understand this suggestion.. here is how Saber Defense works in BaseJKA and RPMod:
- level 1: no deflection, bolts die on the saber blade
- level 2: deflection, bolts bounce on the saber blade
- level 3+: reflection, bolts bounce back to their owner (with a +/- 0.2 units offset for randomization)
So are you suggesting to make reflection "perfect" for levels 4/5 (no randomization)?

Well, I'm not entirely sure, but from what I've seen, in RPmod people with def 3 just bounce them back randomly unless they actually slash, but I can't be entirely sure as I've never managed to test it. I think this is the source of this suggestion.

Well, correct me if I'm wrong Rash, but I know in MB2, there is an upgrade you can get that allows you to reflect ALL blaster bolts back at it's source. So, somewhere it is possible. It'd be nice for higher levels of defense to have something like this.
