Speed 4/5 (Force Dash)
Borrowing from some other third-person shooters...
Turn directional key+speed into a sort of 'quick move' or 'dash', a few meters in whichever direction, at about half the cost of using the ability for the sustained buff.
Doable?

I like that idea a lot. The details of implementation could be obscure (double tap a direction or something) because we hold directions already when activating. But this would be awesome! Double tapping (like UT2k4) for a 'dodge' when Speed 3+ or 4+ or whatever would be sweet.

Sounds cool, but doesn't really apply to me though, it applies to the knights.

I've always thought we'd benefit from having a dash move ala The Force Unleashed. If there was a way to have the dash and the sustained usage, it would be pretty nifty.

Why not? Would it make spars dumb? Most level 4-5 powers do, heh. Plus, who wants to be anywhere near a jedi using speed? This dash is supposed to be like maybe two character length, instantly - it's not my fault 'drag' damage on red slices is like 180. You can thank JKA for that. Not certain this idea is possible given the engine, but I always considered a sort of insta-dash attack.
If you never want to spar, just get Storm 4-5, keeps all the crazies away.

MB2 has something like this. On a higher level or speed you can dash and slice your opponent.

That's something that's actually in the game I believe, it's possible to do in singleplayer, just wholly useless with our damage scales.Ethan Kase wrote:MB2 has something like this. On a higher level or speed you can dash and slice your opponent.

If it's a -really- quick dash, and -if- the power is expensive, sure. I just... don't want another overpowered ability, heh. My character would really benefit from this ability, given that Mirialans are naturally faster, but I despise overpowered powers... so! With more valid parameters, sure, otherwise, I'll pass.Tomoran wrote:Why not? Would it make spars dumb? Most level 4-5 powers do, heh. Plus, who wants to be anywhere near a jedi using speed?

Actually, I managed to make the move in JA+, but it's buggy. I haven't tried in basejka mp yet, and obviously nor in rpmod.Olim Adasca wrote:That's something that's actually in the game I believe, it's possible to do in singleplayer, just wholly useless with our damage scales.Ethan Kase wrote:MB2 has something like this.

Now, related to the suggestion, if you are adding this dash... Well, NOT making it like that Dash Ethan thinks about would be a plus.
